gingera Posted September 27, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2010 We would like to buy a couple bottles of nice wine for our trip. Are there any liquor stores within walking distance of Ft Lauderdale Sheraton Beach Hotel?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted September 27, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I have never seen one so have ended up at Total Wine or Crown Wine & Spirits which are about a $10 cab fare in either direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyGuys Posted September 27, 2010 #5 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Do Walgreens in FL sell beer and or wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deminggraham Posted September 27, 2010 #6 Share Posted September 27, 2010 The last time I sailed out of Ft Lauterdale and came in the day we sailed, I ordered my wine on line from Total Wine and picked it up on my way to the ship. The cab made a quick stop and Total Wine and we were in and out in no time. It worked like a charm. That may work for you if you are not near a liquor store before your cruise.

gingera Posted September 27, 2010 Author #7 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Great Idea! Ty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMSDingy Posted September 27, 2010 #8 Share Posted September 27, 2010 If you use Google Maps, you'll see 2 liquor stores on Las Olas Blvd. Its less than a mile, about a 15 minute walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr_guy Posted September 28, 2010 #9 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I think the distance from the hotel to Total Wine is closer to 3 miles. My wife and I have done this walk several times. The bus and the trolley (on weekends) are other options for making this short trip. We usually arrive in town 2 days early and this is one of our stops the day before the cruise.

KreinKrunker Posted September 28, 2010 #10 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Do Walgreens in FL sell beer and or wine? YES! gingera-the #40 bus will take you to the corner of 17th & Cordova. If you go about a half block north you find Crown Liquor & a Winn Dixie. If you go a block south you will find Total Wine & a Publix. If you are there on the weekend, you can take the Sun Trolley directly to the Publix. Both Crown and Total will deliver on orders over $200. They will also have orders made up and ready to go. http://www.crownwineandspirits.com/ http://www.totalwine.com/ http://www.broward.org/BCT/MapsAndSchedules/Pages/MapsAndSchedules.aspx http://www.suntrolley.com/original_site/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhopal21 Posted September 28, 2010 #12 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Beer/Wine only and on Sunday they don't sell until noon. Do they not sell liquor as well in FLL? Walgreens in Key West sells liquor, beer and wine. And yes not until noon on Sundays. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NthernLgts Posted September 28, 2010 #13 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I have never seen one so have ended up at Total Wine or Crown Wine & Spirits which are about a $10 cab fare in either direction. Total Wine has a great selection (Spirits & beer too) and pretty good prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted September 28, 2010 #14 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Total Wine has a great selection (Spirits & beer too) and pretty good prices. I agree, I much prefer Total Wine over Crown and as others have mentioned, if you order ahead they will have your order waiting for you and you will save cab fares going back and forth to your hotel.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollyanne Posted September 28, 2010 #15 Share Posted September 28, 2010 There is a small liquor store behind the Elbo Room at the corner of A1A and Las Olas. Choices were small but we managed to find something decent. We walked there from the W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike:) Most Walgreens's have a Walgreen's liquor store next door that sells liquor, beer, and wine. If there is no liquor store they sell beer and wine in the regular Walgreen's.

royalcruz Posted September 29, 2010 #19 Share Posted September 29, 2010 There is a small liquor store on Las Olas Blvd about 2 blocks west of A1A, before the bridge. It is the size of a big convenience store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
