Queen's Market

The new late night employee here is terrible. I came here yesterday with my girlfirend at 7:20pm and the employee cussed me out after I politely asked to purchase a lotto ticket. I recorded it on my phone. Hopefully I'll get a chance to show the recording to the owner. I've been coming here for 10 years and have always gotten along great with all the workers. I've never been a rude or impolite customer, so I'm not sure what this guy's deal is. Update: I went here last night after avoiding this place (once my favorite) for over a year because the guy working here at night is so nasty. They advertise cheese online and I really wanted cheese so I politely asked the guy if they had cheese. He cursed me out and told me he wouldn't "serve" me and told me to leave. It's funny how the "owner" responded to my review but isn't interested in seeing the video I have of his employee cursing at customers.

Love queens I've been going there since I could put my baby on the counter lol there in there late 20:s and 30's now!

The night person working there very rude and insulting I would never shop there again it's dirty Also they don't have prices on half of their things and they change prices they charge you more They should replace the night guy because he's making people not wanting to go there anymore I've been going there for a long time and during the day mornings the person is very nice but I would not go there again

Just fine late night place for that emergency pint of milk or munchies. Nice to see a neighborhood place in a place that is less and less like a neighborhood

So happy I went in because I desperately needed a way to lock up my new pink beach cruiser bike and after looking around they had a U lock! I couldn't believe it, yes!!! And only $14.99, you know I bought it. Great little convenience store with everything from drinks, quick snacks, butane, and U locks!

The guy who works evenings here randomly turns away customers and curses at them. What strange behavior. The owner should probably make a staffing change cause he's definitely impacting sales.

Stopped in to stock up on beers for our Airbnb, and the cashier gave us a bottle of white wine! Really nice guy. Regardless of that, great beer and snack selection. Clean store. I'll stop in every time I'm in LA.

I've been going to Queens since I moved to Venice over a year and a half ago, it is overpriced but I thought it was worth it. That was until I realized that my sister was being charged more for the same item than I was being charged. Day and Night liquor is down the street and has fair prices and a better selection. Smart and final, on lincoln also sells a 12 pack of energy drinks for 15 dollars, thats about $1.25 a each.

The guy who worked at night here yelled and cursed at me for seemingly no reason. He turned me away when I was simply trying to make a purchase.

The guy who works evenings here randomly turns away customers and curses at them when they ask why. What strange behavior. Seems like the owner should make a staffing change since this guy is definitely impacting sales.

The clerk working at night is rude, uses fowl language and insults his customers, and has a power trip. The clerk was upset. I brought in my service dog and cursed at me, and then decided not to sell me the items I wanted to buy. Then he had the opacity to escort me out. This store clerk does not care about customers and doesn't treat them kindly. This is how you lose business. Don't waste your time buying from this convenience store. Also, their items are way overpriced as well. There are plenty of other stores nearby to shop at who actually care about their customers.

I've been going to this market for five years. I have always brought my service animal with me. 16 year old corgi never an issue. I until one day. The kid started freaking out about my dog and told me to put them outside. I understand if you want to keep animals out of your business. The attitude was so rude. I can't believe it considering there's a market equally as far from my house. I will never go back to Queens market. I never save this type of stuff but the people who run that store are flat out horrible people.

Best market on venice verity of wine and craft beer selection and great service thank you queens market

I've lived across the street for about 5 years now. I pretty much go there everyday for beer or food or candy. Whatever. I've given these dudes my patronage over every other close by convenience markets because of how nice it is seeing the same folks. Saying hi. Maybe a quick visit or a joke or two. I'm not typically the naive type to think that we're best buds or anything, but a little respect shouldn't be much to ask for. Dude is like a teenage girl on his phone all night with someone. ALL night. Never stops. And now closing up shop earlier and earlier than what their posted hours are. Some people rely on the accuracy of posted hours. And stores to get medicines or other supplies. Turned away 10 minutes before they're supposed to close. Acting like the customers that showed up the same time as I were a holes for trying to get into a place that's typically honored posted hours. Don't even get me started on the lanky goofball that works one day a week. Dude has the personality of a door knob. The guy who is the owner ( I'm assuming) and is always there during the day, he's cool af. Tells folks how it is and is great to every day patrons. Get rid of these children working there at night. They hate their jobs and most likely the people more. Save the at home relations and hot gossip for at home. P.S. I've let it slide a few times because I liked the guys. But YES, I've been overcharged quite a few times by the night time clerks. Especially the one that's only there one night a week. Seems like he makes up the price on the spot.

I have lived next to Queens for two years and go every single day. Sometimes even twice. The workers are extremely kind, and attentive to their regulars. Once they even made Queens market t shirts and they sold out almost immediately I will miss this place greatly when I move.

The only word I can really use to describe this market is "convenience." The guy who owns this place will overcharge you if your are not a local on top of already overcharging. Plenty of liquor stores around here that won't do that. Can't even buy lottery tickets cause he's too cheap to fix the machine. Even though this store is within walking distance I NEVER go there if that says anything. Also, not so nice to other races I've noticed.

Not Bad. Decent Local Mini-Mart/ Liquor Store with decent supply of Wines, Craft Beers, variou Junk Food & Snacks, CBD Products, Cigars (with a walk-in Humador), Crappy China Tools, Knick Knacks, Household Items and what not. Dog Friendly. Limited Parking in front on Venice Blvd or the little side street. Everything Priced Fairly. Cool Employees.

So I just went to this market for the first time to grab something quickly on my morning walk. There are signs on the store that day "only service dogs". My dog is a service dog, so we walk in. The person working tells me she is not allowed to which I respond she is a service dog. He told me I need paperwork next time, I said fine. He also proceeded to tell me "how am I to know" and that my dog should be wearing a harness that says she is service. I told him that actually the law does not require she wear any type of identification. He told me he "knows the law" and was quite rude. In an attempt to educate about said law he clearly does not know, I repeated myself that it's not the case. I left and then went back inside with my documentation that specifically states my animal is a service animal. He asked again how he is supposed to know she is service and I said because I'm showing him the paperwork right now (which frankly, he is supposed to just take my word for it). He told me I'm banned... stellar service along with discrimination here at Queens Market.

Before I could say anything after the word "Hi" this white man with beautiful blue eyes rudely says, "We don't have lottery here and then with his hands shewed me out of his store. Now, as a Black Educator on vacation this hurt my feelings because I stopped to get some other items not just lottery. My $$$ is green to Sir. Thank you but no thank you and I will be sharing this with everyone I know and that's a lot of people. Alumni of CSUDH.

I have never left a review for a market or grocery store (or really anywhere ) before in my life. But I would give Queens a NEGATIVE -10 star review if I could. Born and raised in Venice and having gone to Queens market since it opened and since the days of Sunny and Alfonso who were the most amazing guys ever. The new guy's that they have working there are the most awful, sexist, rude and unfriendly people I've ever encountered in Venice in my life. If you want a local liquor store I definitely recommend Night and Day market on the corner of Venice and Lincoln. These guys have been there before Queens market, they are open until two and are the coolest people ever. The prices and customer service are reasonable and they cater to locals. They're always friendly and happy to have your business. The new guys at Queens are horrible and I will never spend a dime there again.

Great little market. They have delicious craft beers, organic wines, and a great inventory over all. The owner and staff are super friendly. They gave me a free mini hand sanitizer during covid. Just overall good little spot

Queen's is a neighborhood go-to - not every neighborhood in LA is lucky enough to have a corner store like this. Selection is great, prices are fair and the staff are always welcoming. It's my first stop for any necessity.

These people steal. One of the clerks overcharges on each order. Ive been there a couple dozen times and just found out that I have been overcharged by 20%+ on 6 different occasions. The owner defends the employee. They are scum who steal. Loved the store but I now hope their business fails.

Great store and service! One day I was cooking lasagna, which was a horribly challenging recipe then realized I didn't have cheese! I called them to make sure they had it, went on down to pick it up and told the guy working what an idiot I was for forgetting. ( I wish I knew his name, he's there all the time, might be the owner) He actually said that he would've brought the cheese to me and I should let him know in the future if I'm in a bind. Kind and generous offer for just a small cheese purchase. Super store, amazing people!

I love Queens Market! I got my first cellphone from here. That's right. My parents would not buy me a phone. I got a job and went to queens to buy a boost mobile phone. I bought it from Nick ! Who's no longer there but his brother G is such a nice guy. And of course, Alfonso! They know our whole family and we're so supportive when my step mom passed away. I realize the first part of this review has nothing to do with the store. But the customer service is so outstanding. As far as selection ! Wow ! They have so many craft beers! It's almost overwhelming. The snacks are always awesome and they even have a little cigar room. Love you queens !!

I live close (too close) to Queen's and it's my go-to stop for some pick me ups. Alfonso is a homie!!! Always a smile and non-judgemental for the late night Hot Cheeto runs. Good beer selection

Best store ever. Great wine selection. Great beer selection. Nice people. I love this neighborhood store! And it seems like everyone I know has been here and loves it too!

Best wine selection on the west side and best prices! Everything from Yellow Tail to Dom Perignon. Ask Alfonso for wine suggestion and you cannot go wrong. This little gem of a neighborhood market is a five carat diamond!

This spot is so quintessentially Venice. The best convenience store Beer & Wine list on the West Side, these guys really pick some rare and good stuff. If you like craft beer or need to load up for a BBQ/house party gift, they have it all. Decent chance or surfer, homeless guy, and wanna-be movie producer all in line together. Sit back, watch, and enjoy. Really good guys as well.

This place is nastyb there products are pass due dates !!! I seen roaches and rat traps .. would never come here again . Pass this place up at all cost customer beware!!!!

Over priced Juul pods. they should be around $16-20. He charged me 30 plus tax. the pods also didn't even work properly.

I've been going to Queen's market for over 40 years. I won't be going back again. The guy behind the counter was very rude and I told him so. He told me "I don't need your business!" It was an ugly scene and, frankly... I don't have time for that. It's sad to see my neighborhood convenience store go down the drain with unhelpful and disrespectful employees. This isn't the 1st time but it was the last straw.

Nice little liquor store on Venice near Walgrove...kind of kitty corner from Venice High. Discovered this during the supermarket strike, and was surprised to find that, unlike most little neighborhood liquor stores, the prices aren't bad at all! And it's got a pretty decent selection of beer, a surprisingly good selection of wine, and it even has a humidor for them that smokes. Not necessarily a place you'd go out of your way to find, but if you just happen to be in the neighborhood, and you feel like picking up a quart of Arrogant Bastard Ale (motto: "You're Not Worthy!"), this is one of the few places in L.A. that stocks it. Mmm. Arrogant Bastard Ale. Another review for another time...

A great little market. They have some beers that you cant find for miles around. I like to get the "Golden Monkey" and get my girl smashed.

I live around the corner and this is my stop for anything I need drinks, snacks, and (a vast collection of) booze. Also, Alfonso is the nicest guy and always remembers details about me. I even started doing my craigslist transactions here because I always feel so comfortable. They are top notch and you can tell most of the people who come in are regulars who love coming back.

Great prices and a wonderful wine selection. It is cheaper than Ralphs and they call you by name.

love these guys, they have a great selection of beer and wine :) not to mention really nice...good people!

Great little corner store with friendly owners. Excellent selection of beer, wine, and chocolate, and other late night munchy snacks.

They have a great wine and beer selection! Amazing customer service. One of my fave markets.

Without question one of the best places in LA to buy lottery tickets. I've been going in daily for the last six years for mine. When I hit it big, I'm going to march right back into Queen's and buy a pack of cigarettes. Pray for me!

I stop by here pretty often to grab beer when I run out late at night. They have a pretty good selection so you don't have to make the miller or bust decision. They also have a fair selection of wine and tons of munchies. I always walk away with gummy bears. Cant life without gummy bears.

This place is the JAAAAMMM! Alfonso has this place rockin with his cool attitude .. plus you can catch him blasting anything from Cuban, 80's, rock, hip hop and even some Sade! Feels like a neighborhood store and hope it stays like this! got my vote!l

Moved from beach to east up the street- and have found this GEM of a market across the way! I had gone to munis (corner of pacific/venice) for over 4 years and I have got to say-guys n dolls if you got a few minutes to make that hike up venice past lincoln (I know I know ;) so tough) do it! I have got to say I think they have the coldest beer in town with a great selection to choose from... Not to mention there vast amounts of different wines to choose from- it is definitely worth the walk/drive/ride with your DD of course. And of course the crew they have-warm and welcoming and they take the time to help you if needed- so all in all I'm a happy camper and I've found my new late night BEER king! No offense to the queen-never never say anything bad about THE QUEEN! Anyways totally worth it! And if you have had a long friday or saturday night-there is this awesome little crepe place next door to satisfy your am hunger-ohhhhhhh one more thing! Wait til u see the cheap prices!!

Having moved here from NYC, it is a treat to have a 'corner store' such as this. They have most things one might need in a pinch, are open late and have an exceptional wine and beer selection at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and there is a real neighborhood vibe.

Great selection of beer and wine with a knowledgable friendly counter. We live by the Queen's Market and have made it the main stop for beverage selection.

Best beer spot in town. Forget whole foods and bevmo is too far. These guys take suggestions and are proud of their store. Super friendly, fair prices and smiles everytime.

Clean and friendly shop. If you're within walking distance, it's great for those times when you're not really in the mood to drive to the market--especially during rush hour on Venice Blvd.
