Unexpectedly rude. Decent selection, but could use a bit of training on customer service and interaction.

I almost exclusively use this store when going out with friends in Ridgewood. They have a great selection for the size of store and even have sake (convenient considering Shumi is just around the corner). The owners / employees are always warm, friendly, and helpful.

So this spot recently underwent a change in ownership. Definitely worth stopping in and checking it out. They have an awesome selection of wine, beer and spirits. The employees are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. No aggressive sales people trying to push the most expensive liquor on customers. Instead they worked with my price point and directed me to some excellent wine that I wouldn’t have otherwise found on my own. Most importantly the pricing is fantastic.

Public is a great place to find all types of unique liquor options. They have a great selection of draft beer and special wines from all over the world. Plus the staff is super helpful in assisting you to find the perfect drink for the occasion. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to find new and exciting options for their alcohol consumption.

Convenient location that suits my favorite hobby! The guy who runs the joint seems pretty cool and knows his inventory. He pointed me to a great Cab blend that was from the same vineyard as Caymus wines. The price was almost half and it tasted great. I love trying new wines that fly under the radar.

Great selection of wines, beers and liquors available here. My husband and I are never disappointed at the great customer service from the staff and highly recommend this store to anyone. It is our go to place !

Visited the store recently. Excellent selections and great service. Will definitely go back again. Great spot!

Super helpful and attentive. They answered all questions I had, got a hold of a difficult to acquire wine, all timely and as promised. I would highly suggest this establishment!

The owners of Public have brought their high end service and selection from their other store in Princeton to the newly re-opened and renovated Ridgewood location. Highly recommend.

This store is immaculate! Great selection and super friendly staff.

Dont know what you guys are talking about, I have been going here for years and the owner is always pleasant and friendly to me.

Great prices, great selection and a friendly and helpful staff!

Seems like this store is under new ownership. Much better experience in comprison to several visists I had earlier this year . Clean and friednly staff. The overall collection and variety has immensely improved which is a huge plus.

Great place.

Avoid this place. Its dirty and service folks are unpleasant and rude. I ordinarily dont post such negative reviews but I had such a bad experience and saw someone else had a similar experience that I had to make it clear to others that it looks like this is a pattern at this shop.

Recently stopped by for some craft beer and specialty wine. This place caters to the wine,beer, and scotch connoisseur!

The cashier was terrible, very unapproachable

The owner is so cheap and rude!
