Wonderful small store with a great selection of beer and wine. Doug is extremely knowledgeable and can help you with whatever you are looking for.

Doug and his staff take care of customers. Couldn’t recommend a better place in Columbia if you’re looking for unique, affordable and delicious bevies.

Great wine selection and great prices! Owner very helpful explaining different wines.

Great place

Wonderful selection of wine and beer. The only negative is that theyre open when most people have to work.

This is a great place to buy wine or craft beer in Columbia. The shop offers a well-curated selection of reasonably priced mid-tier wines and beers. This is not a beverage warehouse, but there is a good selection of quality wines. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They offer monthly beer and wine tastings.

Great boutique wine shop with a nice selection of wines and craft beers, great prices and a cool owner !! Support our local businesses !!

Love Vino Garage! It is walking distance to my house and its a fantastic locally owned shop. Doug, the owner, is friendly and knowledgable. The wine and beer selection is great. I always find something new to try without breaking the bank! Happy to have this gem in my neighborhood.

Local win.

Great prices and convenient location.

Great selection and reasonable prices. They also have really fun wine and craft beer tastings monthly that draw a good crowd. Doug knows his stuff, check this place out!

Great place to drop in and get your favorite beer or wine. Those who especially dont like the big box stores will love the atmosphere and personalized service. Me and my girlfriend also enjoy going to their beer and wine tasting.

I had had a long day and decided to check out this wine shop and see if they carried a certain wine I like. A man asked to help me, which was nice, but when I told him the wine I was looking for he laughed in my face and told me they would only carry that wine ironically and to check out a gas station down the road. I know that my wine tastes arent refined, but I didnt expect to be mocked for asking. I will be checking out other stores for my wine needs in the future. Im sure this is a lovely wine store with a good selection of wines, but I wound up feeling embarrassed and foolish trying to shop here.

Vino Garage is an awesome shop! There is a variety of bear and wine selections you may not find elsewhere in Columbia, SC. Doug has been kind and extra helpful on multiple occasions; hes even ordered a specialty beer my husband was looking for that he didnt have in stock, he then emailed us when it was in.Weve attended a few wine tasting events here and enjoy the local vibe. Its got a big city selection with a small town feel and great customer service.Vino Garage should be on your To-Do list for Columbia.

The guy who runs (owns?) this place is great. Ive never been disappointed by any of his suggestions. The selection here is excellent as well. I always see beer/wine in there that I havent seen anywhere else (or even heard of, sometimes).If youre looking to buy quality beer/wine at a fair price, this is the place to go (especially for beer you may not find in any other stores). It doesnt hurt that the guy who runs the place usually laughs at my bad jokes and keeps the place very clean, as well ;)

Doug is quite knowledgeable of the array of wines in stock. Also carries some local beers.

Stopped by from out of town to check out the selection. Great place, great selection,owner was knowledgeable and willing to look up beers he didnt have for future shipping. I will be back next time Im in town

Love this place!

Doug is exceptional in his knowledge of the trade and personal with your individual preferences. He is one of a kind especially in SC

Enjoyed the wine tasting and chocolate pairing. My book club and I had a great time!

The Vino Garage is excellent! They have a great beer and wine selection. You can break up any six pack and make your own which is awesome.The owner is very friendly.I love it!!!

Great selection, great prices. Owner really knows his stuff.

I love taking Dougs advice on wines! Affordable, super interesting selection of beer and wine, with the bonus of a shared space with Curiosity Coffee on N. Main!

I am a professional in the wine industry and I have been bragging about this place and their selection- extremely approachable and affordable wines if youre looking for an interesting bottle and not spending a fortune this is the place. Girlfriend said, I wish we had a vino garage in Napa.

Great wine selection with a craft beer area as well. The coffee shop is very laid back and atmosphere in very friendly.

Always helps me pick the perfect beverages within my price point.

Dougs shop is great. A well curated selection of beers and wines. Doug knows them all!

Doug does a great job in selecting his wine and beer, both in quality and price point.

Very helpful staff will help you find something you like from their limited but quality selection. Often host free tastings on Saturdays.

Doug is knowledgeable, helpful with an understanding of your needs and budget, and has the ability to explain very nicely.

This was a really grumpy guy. I saw him yell at a customer one day. Will tell all our friends not to go there. Not a huge selection either with prices being really high

Good selection of beer and wine. Steve is willing to help as much as possible.

Great selection of wines and beers. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Great selection, and a staff to help you pick out the perfect wine (or beer) for you. Lots of tastings to help you discover new beer and wine.

Great atmosphere, wine selection is wonderful.

I love the Vino Garage, the selection is excellent for a smallish store. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. The store is actually in an old garage and has an eclectic feel without being pretentious. Also convenient to the Cottontown, Elmwood and Earlewood Park neighborhoods.

Great selection of beer. Support locally businesses with this owner!

Cant stop going over there

Excellent shop for finding limited releases and little known brews

Good wine. Good prices. Good people.

I should have written this review ages ago, because Vino Garage was great upon our first visit and has only become more endearing. If you appreciate good beer and wine, and like buying local, then this place has all you need!The owner, Doug, is a great guide in his store. He always makes great pairing suggestions for all of our random meal/taste inquiries. He genuinely takes interest in his customers preferences/needs. Inventory is always changing, and the range of price points are extremely reasonable and accommodating to any level of wine/beer enthusiast--from the unsophisticated palate (like us!) to the connoisseur.For those of you who think you prefer driving to Harbison for big box package stores, Ill be succinct: Vino has a welcoming, simple, unpretentious atmosphere. Its a convenient location for the downtown and Earlewood/Elmwood/NOMA areas, with good hours, and frequent tasting events. The store is always clean and parking/traffic is no problem. Customer service is always fantastic. Affordable prices and lots of options. A much better experience and less hassle overall than going to Greens or Total Wine.Truly, if you havent given Vino a try yet, you should!

Great selection of different wine and beer. The owner is a hoot as well.

Hell no the owner is crazy a need better manners & customer service. I don’t recommend this place to anyone especially of color. Sad how business owners think they can talk & treat people like garbage.

Knowledgable, Always makes the right suggestion.

Nice selection, plus there is coffee

Great find!

Interesting

Friendly people
