PALM SPRINGS LIQUOR — Local services in La Mesa

This place has almost everything you need for a convenient/ liquor store but the customer service is inconsistent and was very disappointing today. I waited patiently as the cashier made litterally about ten separate register transactions for a customer picking out lottery scratchers and paying with coins. I absolutely understand hard times and definitely was not trying to be rude and at this point it was rude to the people in line. After I realized that this was just going to continue, I KINDLY asked if I may purchase a single pack of cigarettes. They just looked at me and the other guy finally thought to use the other register to help me. He started talking down to me and scolding me telling me saying I should have even MORE patience. I just took it from him and I apologized and a assured him that I would never spend money there ever again. Sucks because I used to frequent this store...

By far the best liquor store/smoke shop in the area. Every time I go in, I am genuinely impressed by their kindness and commitment to great customer service. It legitimately cheers me up in the morning. It doesn't matter if you roll in at 7 am on a Tuesday for some booze, there's zero judgement. Just a friendly atmosphere and employees that go out of their way to provide great customer service. All of that coupled with the fact that they have everything you need in a single stop, why shop anywhere else? I should also add that both alcohol and cigarettes are cheaper than any of the major chain convienence stores. They definitely have my continued business for as long as I'm in town. Y'all are seriously killing...

So lucky to have a place like this so close, from the outside it looks like your everyday average liquor store but once you step inside it's wall to wall beers of all types. It's great to stop in here and grab something a little different, something I wouldn't have been able to try just running into a grocery store. I'm also always surprised by how reasonably priced everything is. Sometimes you expect the smaller places to charge more, that's not the case here. It's definitely as someone mentioned, a hidden gem and I'm happy to...
