La Mesa Market and Liquor

No Longer In Business

Updated to "out of business." There was a fire here the evening of July 20th, 2016. Based on the damage that was done, there does not appear to be any reasonable chance that this place will be open in the near future.

Surprisingly good selection for what looks like a run of the mill liquor store. The gentleman (owner?) that helped me was very nice and knowledgeable.

Was surprised to see this place in here. Had no idea they sold a lot of beer. They really do have quite a bit of stuff. Good locals along with some a lot of national stuff and some obscure Eastern European brews. Most of the stuff isn’t super rare, but they have a pretty good selection. Prices didn’t seem to high, but a lot of stuff wasn’t marked.

The owner Sam runs a very nice little liquor store that carries most of the local breweries. He has a vast selection of microbrews and imported beers, the selection is staggering. Also, if you are looking for something special, he will order a case, only if you wanted a single bottle. I used to go to BevMo but I find his selection just as good and the customer service is excellent. If you are looking for great beer in East County San Diego, I would check him out.
