Community Beverage

Elmhurst’s Community Beverage keeps the neighborhood stocked with beer, wine, and spirits at 80-04 Grand Ave. The place also stocks small-batch releases from local brewers, which locals drop by to grab. Local wines from small producers line the shelves alongside craft beers you won’t spot at chain stores. If a dinner party calls for something beyond the usual grocery run, they’ll point you toward under-the-radar bottles. For last-minute gatherings, they hold a rotating tap of seasonal drafts in cans—grab a six-pack to go. They also accept bottle returns for a smoother recycling loop in the area. Call ahead to confirm a find before you head out: (718) 458-5254. Directions are quickest on the maps link right here: find your route to the store.
