Bottle Barn is still a really cool place to go and check out, regardless of whether you're into wine, beer, spirits, etc. It's fun to walk the aisles and see all the stuff they have. Not all of the staff are particularly knowledgeable so getting help is a bit hit or miss, unfortunately, though with a selection this large, I'm sure it's pretty challenging to know everything about every producer.
I've been shopping at Bottle Barn for the better part of a decade. I still love their selection, wine in particular. Prices tend to be very competitive - while not often the lowest, they are usually within a few to several dollars of the lowest prices shown on Wine Searcher.
With all the positives out of the way, there are two things which you may find frustrating if you decide to shop, especially if you like to place orders online and pick up later so you don't have to spend an hour locating every bottle you want to buy.
(1) When the quantity is showing 3 or fewer bottles, good luck - chances are, they aren't going to be able to locate it or their inventory is simply out of date. This has happened to me numerous times, both for online orders, as well as walking in and looking for a bottle their site said was in stock. They will often give the excuse that customers pick up the bottles, change their mind, and then place them wherever it's convenient. I get that, but for anything low quantity, it seems rather important to verify these bottles exist and can be found and I would've assumed this was a standard part of doing some regular inventory.
(2) They place barcode stickers on every bottle and they are not easy to remove. Normally, if I'm buying something to drink at home, I care less about this, but if you're buying something as a gift, you'll have to spend 10 minutes fighting this sticker and removing all the sticky residue that's left behind. I once asked if it was possible for them to remove the price sticker as I was purchasing a gift and the cashier just haphazardly tore the sticker off the bottle and handed it to me. Yes, the price was no longer visible, however half the sticker was still on it and looking all torn. Not very presentable IMO.
So yes, a great place to browse and shop, however just be aware of these two things.
