Top Cellar Select

"Good selection, good service, good hrs.."

"What a great liquor store!! One of the last great family owned businesses left!! I am always treated so well by the owner and his family!! All of the employees are so helpful, nice, and make me feel better if I've had a bad day. Everyone was was wearing a mask. Great selection, and always have what I want at reasonable prices!! Wouldn't go anywhere else!!"

"I am concerned by the decisions and the aggressiveness of the owner. He has asked (and that is a nice way of putting it) customers/patrons to not return to his store when they asked about the no mask wearing policy at the store. Not planning to patronize this store again and am worried for the safety of a customer verbally assaulted by the owner. Small business owners can not afford to put customers at risk and berate them for following protol."

"I have been a frequent customer of Top Cellars Select for years. I found the staff very friendly. It's conveniently located, and they carried Dots pretzels before the local grocery stores. Those are addicting. :) Fast forward to Summer 2020. We are in the middle of a global pandemic. People and businesses are suffering and our numbers in Kansas are beginning to rise. In the interest of public health, on July 2nd Governor Kelly and the Johnson County Commissioners voted to make masks indoors mandatory. On August 1, 2020, I stopped in to pick up a bottle of wine. The sales associate was not wearing a mask. She greeted me and I asked her "do you not wear masks here?" She answered, "no." I said, "ok", and I immediately left the building. I called the business, and informed the sales associate that by not wearing masks they were in violation of executive order #20-52, and that I would report it to a designated hotline for violations of that order. The associate said, "ok." And the conversation ended. Ten minutes later, I get a call from a number I do not know and have never called. A man asked me if I had called his store and his associate. I said I had and he identified himself as the owner and asked what I had said. I explained the gist of the conversation I had with the associate. He proceeds to berate me and say it's none of my "f***ing business." Yelling, he continues and says, "I have a mandate for you: go f***k yourself and don't ever come back in my store again.""

"I'll never forget my first visit. I was overly entertained by the automatic door that opens when you leave the store. When you finish your purchase to head for the door the cashier presses a button to help you exit the establishment. It's such a small thing but I love this place for that bit of customer service and their terrific selection of beer. Friendly staff as well."
