Bwy Wine & Liquors

A liquor store sits above 150th Street, tucked between the slow hum of Washington Heights and the rising energy of Hamilton Heights. Bwy Wine & Liquors keeps the basics stocked for any occasion—wine, spirits, beer, even gift baskets. Local cooks swing by for everyday bottles, while hosts stock up for weekend gatherings. Quick trips turn into good finds when labels catch the eye.

Find the shop along 561 W 152nd Street, a straight shot between Broadway and Amsterdam. A call ahead saves the walk if the cart needs to be unloaded elsewhere. The map shows the best curb spot before you head up. Add contact info once near the end: call 212-568-4100. Head there directly and come back with what fits the night.
