      I can safely say I can always find something new in here, whatever the poison. The prices might be on the high side, but it's a small price to pay if you don't want to try and find BevMo or a Total Wine and More.
      Pro-tip, I would use Texas for your more obscure, hard to find purchases- if you're just looking for shelf liquor or a common six-pack, youre better to go to Smart and Final or Vons and save some dough.

      Great craft beer selection--don't let the small exterior fool you. They pack it in. Good place to get something special for a party you're going to.

      Grossly overpriced. The grim man behind their counter told us a twelve pack of Modelo here is $20. Stepped next door to Smart & Final. Smart & Final sells the exact same beer (cold in their fridge) for $6 LESS---same size.

      We've been helped by a great guy named "Ryan" here. Too bad he wasn't working today.

      Talk about customer service. I was doing a friend a favor and buying him a couple bottles of Bourbon he couldn't find around his way. When I was being rung up, the price was double what I expected. I said that that wasn't the right price for that brand, but was told that I was mistaken because this was a different version that was much more. Taking the cashier at his word, I bought it.

      Shame on me. After sending my friend a photo and telling him that this was some special version I'd gotten him, he told I'd been had. I returned and politely asked to return the bottles but was told the state of CA doesn't allow that. I asked if they could offer me credit, to which they said no as well.

      First and last time I'll ever shop at this store. I'm angry at myself for believing them and assuming they weren't out to get me. Prices are astronomical, the staff is misleading. Take your business elsewhere. These guys are getting by on location. Save a bundle and shop literally anywhere else.

      If I could give zero stars, I assuredly would.

      Not only is the staff profoundly rude (and eyeball you like you're planning a heist), they're bonafide con artists - true masters of the bait and switch; as others have alluded to, pay close attention...take your eye off the prize and next thing you know you're paying for something you're not getting. Safe to say I'll never patronize this place again.

      This place is for suckers. Beware.

      This place probably has the best selection of booze in the Carlsbad Village area. That being said, the competition isn't exactly stellar. There's a few other smaller liquor stores and perhaps the worst Smart & Final I've ever been to, so Texas Wine & Spirits kinda wins the award by default.

      They didn't blow me away with any cool beer or wine offerings, but the one major plus is the box of booze they usually have at the front where you can mix and match labels at a discount. I got a couple of flavors flavors for a fraction of the price which was awesome.

      Guys at the register we're nice enough and the sketchy drunkard waiting outside factor was at a minimum which is usually not the case at a little shop like this. If you're looking for anything outside of Coors Lights in the area, this is your stop.
