Craft Wine and Beer in Reno is hands down one of the best bottle shops I’ve ever had the pleasure of visiting. Their selection is top-tier, especially when it comes to whisky. Finding a store with a solid Springbank lineup is rare anywhere, but in Nevada? Nearly unheard of—yet Craft delivers in spades.
The staff here is phenomenal—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just getting into fine wine, beer, or spirits, they’ll guide you to something special without any pretension.

Read moreExcellent selection of beer, wine, and spirits. They have non-alcoholic options, and nice things to go with it like tinned fish. My wine-snobbiest friends from larger cities have been quite impressed at their imports. A small bar with friendly staff and a huge event space. My only complaint is I often wish they were open later. Some people in the reviews complain about parking, but hey, welcome to the coolest neighborhood in the city! One of the major reasons it's a nice place is it's not surrounded by giant surface parking lots so you can safely walk here from wherever else you're going, and I guarantee you there is still plenty of street parking 1-2...
