Schaefer's Wines, Foods & Spirits

Our go to for the best specialty foods. Schaefer's is a long standing family business that hasn't conceded on maintaining quality products, expertise, and customer experience. Keep doing what you're doing for generations to come!

By far the best and most unique liquor store I've been to in Chicagoland. They also sell an amazing selection of French cheeses and crackers, olives etc. I came in to pick up a 6 pack of beer, I came out with delish craft beer and cheese, worth the detour.

I like the manageability of Schaefer's. It's easy to get in and out and for the size of the place, the selection is large. I am a member of their CAPS rewards program (free) which means they have a record of that great bottle you bought and you don't have to remember what it was. Cheese, snacks, crackers, good beer, cider offerings. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Even with ongoing construction on Gross Point Rd, it'sl easy to get in and out via Old Orchard Road and their parking lot always has room. Why go big box when you can get service here? Cheers!

We contracted Schaefer’s to provide beer, wine, and spirits for our wedding in August 2023. Their prices are very reasonable. They were prompt with the delivery of our beverages and they independently coordinated the pick-up of all unopened containers at the end of the night. I would highly recommend Schaefer’s for all of your event beverage needs.

I can not recommend schaefers enough . they went the extra mile to ensure that my lovely elderly parents in England could send a wonderful Christmas box of wine and cheese to their brother in Chicago. A big thank to Mick Ter Haar for his patience and kindness he was amazing and I am so grateful.
Fully recommend enough

Schaefer’s Wines, Foods and Spirits, is a warm and welcoming store to buy beverages, lunch and to shop at one’s heart for Winery and other elegant surprises. Today, I just bought beautiful winery bottles with Dogs and Horses and love the many designs and had them put in a gift box for myself!

I want to start collecting winery bottles as a winery cabinet collection and to discover more beautiful bottles at this store!

The staff workers are great and kind! They take their time, to Gift Wrap the Winery Bottles This Holiday Season and Are Patient to make sure the bottles are beautiful and well protected!

So Shop this Holiday Season @ Schaefer Winery Company and Any Special Occasion for your Family Friend or Loved One!

Can’t Wait To Buy More Bottles!

I’m glad to be apart of the Team!

Thank you And Merry Christmas To All

From one Chef to another Chef!

Excellent service, could not have been easier to send my brother a birthday gift. Thank you Schaefer's.

Excellent service. Excellent wines. Thank you :-)

Fantastic selection and customer service. We used them to supply all of the beer and wine for our wedding. They include glasses to rent free of charge which was a huge savings to us. The manager Dan spent time with us in the store and was very responsive to our emails. I highly recommend this neighborhood gem!

Schaefer's has it all! Great wine at bargain prices, region specific wines and wines that have been aged for decades. It's great to go for parties, gifts or inquisitive oenoophiles!

Love Schaeffer’s. Always ready to help answer questions or help you find something. They have a huge selection of wines, in all price ranges. If you’d like to try something new, just ask for a recommendation and they will give you choices in your budget range.

The “fancy” wine & cheese & provisions go-to without fancy prices. Been around forever, the staff always goes above and beyond to help you find things. The hand-stuffed bleu cheese olives are the best I’ve ever had.

We used Schaefer's to provide alcohol for our wedding reception. We met with Jackie in person to taste some products, and she helped us make drink choices that not only tasted great, but were also budget-friendly. Jackie was easy to communicate with and walked us through the entire planning process. Schaefer's also delivered all the products directly to our venue, and picked up any leftover a few days after the event; we were worry- and stress-free throughout. We highly recommend Schaefer's for any event.

After passing it for years, one day I stopped by. WOW! This is a great wine shop. Probably the best in the Chicago area. They also carry sprits and everything you need to host a party. This store is a gem. I hope they do Bacon Fest again. And be sure to check out the warehouse sale. It usually in February. I like to buy a couple of cases of summer wine to remind myself it will be summer again.

We have been going to Shaefer’s forever. We used to live nearby and go on Saturdays for wine tastings. It's where we learned what we like in wine. The staff is amazing and the ”fine food” is really very fine. They do amazing gift wrap as well. If you have a chance, the warehouse sale is the most fun you will have crammed in a small liquor warehouse. Wine samples with popcorn and half-drunk strangers it's even more fun than that sounds. It's like a mini party! GO

Probably my favorite place to shop for wine. The staff there is friendly and knowledgeable, willing to make suggestions. The selection is excellent, with plenty of well-choosen domestic wines and a wide swath of quality European wines as well. Lots of other great food and drink offerings -- and a deli, all of which is wonderful too, but I come for the wine. A great local shop worth supporting.

What a great store! I drove by it thinking it was just a liquor store, but "fine foods" eventually caught my eye! What a delight. Both food and spirits are of fine quality and fair prices. So glad to find it and support this store. People are very friendly.

If you are looking the a wine connoisseur who really knows her craft….meet Jackie, wine stewart , wine enthusiast and wine theorist who truly knows her craft. Jackie was spot on with both her white and red
recommendations. Instead of my usual $25+ bottle of wine, Jackie suggested 2 white Bordeaux’s at $13.00 (unheard of.. not anymore). For an everyday
Wine, it was a “10”!!! Keep ‘em coming Jackie!!!!
