Unassuming little shop in Brookline near the Metro stop and Catholic U. with a great selection of wines, knowledgeable staff, and a neat set of online events as a result of the pandemic.
Eric and Lyndon were so delightful! This shop has everything you could need for a nice night in - pasta, cheese, charcuterie, crackers, wine, liquor, etc. They only carry the best, and we’re so excited to come back soon!
I was expecting more than a liquor store with a few grocery store quality wines.
Very nice selection of beers
Such a great place, always super helpful and awesome!
I stumbled upon this shop as I was nearby and their customer service is incredible! I did not know that they’re online order only/curbside pickup only because of COVID but because I came close to closing they gave me a break and made a hand selected mix matched beer selection. So excited to know about this place now and will be coming back
Such a wonderful and personalized experience! I arrived close to closing time at Wardman but Julia was nonetheless accommodating and thoughtful in her suggestion of wine. Thank you, Julia, for your patience!
Only online orders and sidewalk pick-up...
The staff, the wine, the prices-- all great! Everyone is alwayswillibg to help, I was not great at picking out wines at first for myself, but they take their time and I’ve learned a lot. This is my go to, for sure! I find it a bit laughable that some give a wine specialty store a lower rating for having a limited selection of beer. I have seen them transition the selection seasonally with local crafts, a couple typical favorites, and some “give these ‘editor picks’ a try.” As a non-beer drinker, I can’t give an opinion.
A great variety of bourbon on hand with knowledgeable staff ready and willing to help. Often have rare or special bottles available as well. They also have a very good beer selection from across the country. I highly recommend this location.
Good selection of wines. Decent selection of spirits. Atrocious beer selection and storage practices. All beer is stored hot which explains why you wont find premium offerings. Beers long past their prime are not removed and destroyed by staff. If youre looking for a year old NEIPA, this is your spot! Curiously, Sierra Nevada & Cigar City 12 packs are not available.
There’s honestly not enough or the right words to describe Wardman Wines. For two years before moving to Brooklyn we went to Wardman for all our wine and beer needs (needs? wants? same thing!). We’re going to miss this place
Solid wine store with a great, if small, beer selection and some fantastic spirits. The whiskey stock is limited, but has some stand outs, and prices arent ridiculous. Wine tastings are well managed and bring in some interesting people.
This place might be called Wardman Wines, but the real treat here is the house gin, especially if youre into flavored gin. When I first visited I was treated to a free gin tasting. I actually stopped in because I was looking for some good Port wine and I hadnt had any luck in nearby stores. I was happy to see that Wardman Wines had several varieties in stock.
Great selection of wine, beer and spirits. The staff is amazing and always gives great recommendations. Fantastic tastings every time I go in there. Prices are reasonable, and I enjoy the unique selection of spirits I cant find anywhere else.
Great local place. Good selection and reasonable prices. Fun tastings for free or $10 (good towards a purchase) most days in the early evening.
Great selection of wines, beers and spirits! The owners have done a great job in stocking some exquisite wines while also offering highly affordable options. Great educated staff ready to make great recommendations based on our preferances and the meals were serving family and friends.
Good
Super friendly and helpful staff. Usually a tasting going on when Im there (although you have to pay for it). Great wine selections. Limited alcohol and beer selections.
Helpful, friendly staff. Nice selection of wine, beer, and liquor. Free wine tastings on occasion are a delightful bonus.
Friendly and helpful staff, nice selection of local drinks. Some sections (vodka) are pretty sparse but staff always have a recommendation if you cant find what youre looking for.
Knowledgeable staff, great prices!!
Excellent selection. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Missing Sancho!
Great selection of wine, beer, and liquor. Free tastings Wednesday through Saturday. Convenient location.
Friendly staff and large selection of local and international wines. Their staff was able to acquire some of my wife’s favorite wine from Spain: Lar de Paula - Rioja Blanco. We will definitely be ordering more in the future!
Very welcoming environment. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable.
Great corner shop for beer and wines. Good selection and they like corgis too.
Very knowledgeable..great wines and spirits..not the usual choices.
Excellent selection! They often have free tastings, and are more than happy to help you discover a new wine or spirit.
Their thoughtful tastings will introduce you to some surprising wines.

Convenient in the neighborhood for wise champagne beer and alcohol you wouldnt normally find at a liquor store also great glasses and bar tools
Can be a little pricier than standard but the staff are incredibly helpful and the selection of wine, beer, and spirits are great. If they dont have what you want they will work to get it for you too
Very helpful staff, wide and often unique selection, and frequent free tastings to round it out.
Helpful and friendly staff who are always happy to engage and even willing to let you taste inventory! Not to mention there are free tastings on Fridays.
Amazing selection including more obscure varietals; nicely curated selections for spirits and beers; and a really nice $15 or less wine selection
Good inventory and convenient location. Staff was helpful.
We drop by, anytime were in the neighborhood. I somehow didnt realize the first couple times that they have liquor, and not just wine & beer.
Excellent service and expert knowledge!
