I won?t ever make a wine selection mistake again!!!

by chrisegilbert

Lush Wine and Spirits (on Roscoe) offers a sophisticated dark wood boutique interior, knowledgeable staff, excellent wine and beer selection, and most importantly - I won't make another $30 mistake trying to pick a wine out myself that rates 91 out of 100 at a wine store. Because I price shop everything, I was pleasantly surprised to see that my $25-$30 bottles of wine were only a few bucks cheaper online - not including the shipping costs. If you're a novice continuously making costly errors of judgment or an aficionado looking for a nice wine boutique - check out Lush!

• Pros: The staff knows their stuff, classy boutique setup, large selection, no more rookie mistake of picking the wrong wine!

Good store

Just stopped in there for the first time this week to check out their beer selection. I'm not a wine drinker (I enjoy it, but know nothing about it), but the selection appeared to be extensive. The beer selection is small right now but they carry several excellent brews, and no swill. I'll definitely be back to spend more money at Lush soon. *Edit* I should note that Lush is a little bit on the pricey side. After examining the price tags there a little more, I found that their beers are consistently a solid two or three dollars more than at other stores, including Whole Foods.

• Pros: Nice decor, quality beer
• Cons: Would love to see an expanded beer selection; a bit overpriced
