Social Liquors & Wines - Cambridge — Local services in Cambridge

I went in here to look for a gift for a friend who shops at Social Wines for thieir natural wine selection. First time I had been in since it used to be Central Bottle (I miss them so much!). Their selection is very impressive and they have all kinds of price points which is great. But the service was . . .meh. The girl was nice enough but it seemed like her text conversation was more important during our interactions (though her knowledge of the shop and product was excellent). After finishing with the customer ahead of me, she immediately started texting even though I was obviously looking for some assistance. Then she kept texting while ringing me up. I don't expect the red carpet, but having worked in the service industry many times over, I know what friendly, interactive service looks like and...

I personally like to get a variety of styles and I like to be surprised, so I like that they have a curated option. I went in to stock up and she had no problems finding me a case worth of good wines around the $15 mark (she let me know the price of each bottle, flavor profile, etc, and I said yay or nay). We're about halfway through the case that was curated for us and there has not been a dud wine yet!

Definitely...

This is the best Liquor Store ever, incredible selection in stock, and the absolute kindest staff. Rishab proved to be exceptional. I came into the store and my phone was dead- I needed to meet up with a friend, and was in dire need of a charger. He kindly offered me his, and I also purchased some gum, which was the most delicious gum I’ve ever had in my life. The store is very modern interiorly, with an extensive selection of excellent liquors, with added goodies including snacks and ice cream. I would highly recommend Social Liquors & Wines to anyone who finds themselves...
