Crown Liquors Westlake

Found an older Bunnahabhain scotch that came out a few years ago for a very reasonable price, better than what I could find online by $45-315, no joke. Selection seemed decent, didn’t compare prices on more standard bottles but would visit again just to see what they had. Only place I’ve found Balcones Bourbon too.

Do Not shop at Crown Liquor on westlake Houston near Burlington! They are the biggest price gouging store that I have ever seen. I went there to purchase Martell Blue Swift the price for Blue Shift is average price 25$ Crown Liquor wanted 37$ same size bottle. I informed them that they were extremely overpriced and their response was “ people pay it” please take your money elsewhere

Their prices are easily 25% higher than anywhere else. Yellow Rose is $30 at Specs and $40 here. Angels Envy is $45 at Specs and Total Wine, and $60 here. Stay away unless you’re desperate.

Huge mark up, you’re better off making the drive to specs. I paid $25 for a small soda and a 375ml bottle of Jameson. At specs you can get a 750ml bottle for $20. They even got an attitude when I asked why their prices were so much higher than everyone else around the area.

So im doing a tasting here today and I have to say I LOVE this store! The owner and his wife are so amazing and welcoming. The store is so clean and bright. The prices are very reasonable. I definitely recommend stopping by and checking them out

Used to support them but prices went up and prices for allocated bourbon are ridiculous. I can't support a store who doesn't appreciate loyal customers. EH Taylor for 150? A store like this should lose their allocations.

Make sure you know what typical prices are. Their 1.75L bottle of Yellow Rose is marked $79.99, and Specs has it for $46. It's an otherwise clean and well organized store.

Not every store can be huge and stock 10,000 products. Monarch is a small store owned by Raj Ghandi and Kate Ghandi. They are great small business owners who CARE about their customers. Yes, I can buy things there that are less at Specs, but they are close and it is all personal to them. I asked about a specific brand of Tawny Port and they did not carry it. Raj wrote it down and told me he would get it. The next time I am in the store, there it is! And, he even had both 10 and 20 year versions! Obviously, a single small store cannot buy the quantities that a Spec's can and therefore they can't get a price that huge wholesalers get. It is worth it to me to pay a little bit more and have someone who knows me when I walk in and caters to my needs and wants. Thanks Raj and Kate!

DON'T buy your liquor here!!! They sell expired liquor and won't exchange it. I bought a liquor here last weekend and when I took it home realized it was expired, I didn't open it, hoping to exchange my bottle. They are closed Sunday so I couldn't bring it back the next day. Today when I brought it back the guy behind the counter claimed there was a law that claimed you can't return or exchange liquor. When I looked it up in my phone, I showed him the phone that there is no such law!! He said well you can just come back at 4 when the owner is back. My boyfriend checked the other bottles and they were over a year expired! I told him before I left that if he had just exchanged it he could have had returning customers. I told him to keep his expired liquor that I wasn't going to do anything with it. Please check the expiration dates and know these peine will treat you poorly if you try to exchange anything. Bad customer service.
