Circus Wines, Beer & Spirits

Great selection and friendly staff.

A plethora of wines and spirits to choose from. Prices are competitive on most, not all items. Stepping inside feels dated, but also brings back memories of what older liquor store appearances were 20 years ago. Service is fast and friendly. 10/10

Definitely the coldest beer in Monmouth County must be kept at 33° just above freezing

And the wine selection is incredible

And yes you can even get Pabst Blue ribbon beer

Absolutely the best place to get beer kegs for my Kegerator. They also have some great large wine bottles that are really good value for the cost. The staff are outstanding, thanks so much for all you do for me, you are the best..

Great selections, great service and place is clean. Has many parking spots. I recommend

The staff is great. They have such an awesome assistant manager named Theresa. She makes it an absolute pleasure to simply walk in the doors. I pray she is working when I arrive, and they always have any alcohol I need at the best prices!!!!

It's a great assortment of wine, beer and liquor. It has become my "go to" choice for wine, particularly from Italy.

They also have a nice assortment from Argentina, if you're looking for a Malbec.

They will order items for you that are not in stock, as they have done for me on a number of occasions. Prices are good, but for me the large assortment and inventory is the greatest appeal.

Ever walk into a retail business and not get a hello. Want a quick answer to a quick question: "Hi. I need a gallon table wine." Answer: "Look in the back on aisle 6."
This to me is the explanation to all the favorable reviews I saw after our Friday night spaghetti dinner. Good management seems to cohabit with good manners.

Incredible selection of all the alcohols. It’s a one stop shop for any party. I was happy with the speciality selections that tend to be hard to find elsewhere :)

just now

Originally rated a 1 but picked the wong location for survey. The manager john was understanding and made good on ordering me a beer I originally went in for. Good selection of craft on hand
Original review-
Dont believe the closing times of 9pm! Got to the shrewsbury location at 8:56 and door was locked. Lady peaked her head out from behind a wall and when we looked at each other she walked back behind the wall and turned all the lights off. If they would have simply been closed a few minutes before 9 I wouldnt be on here giving this review because sometimes things happen. But to peak out and stare at each other and all of a sudden they walk away and turn off all the lights...its a slap in the face for someone that has never shopped at this store. Terrible. I feel bad for any customer who that woman deals with on a frequent basis.

Great selection. Much better prices than some of the other stores in the area. They went out of the way to order an obscure gin for me and then called when it came in. Love how nice they are when you are in the store.

One of my favorite liquor stores . Friendly helpful employees . Great selection and absolutely love their pink wine department decorated like a doll house 🥿💕💕💕💕👛🥂🍷🥂🍷🥂🍷🥂🍷🥂🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

My go-to place for adult beverages. If they don't have it, they'll order it for you and call when it comes in. They also deliver, but I've never had to use that service. Prices are comparable to nearby competition, with only Beerking having slightly lower prices for domestic beers.

This place has the best GLUTEN FREE beer options, from my knowledge, in Monmouth County. This place also has the best Gluten Free (NON-beer) options; they have every cider you'd want and even Honey Mead's or Honey Wines if you're feeling "noble".

This is GF alcohol heaven :-)

My favorite liquor store, with an exceptionally large beer selection.

Tip: If you get there by driving west on Rt. 520 / Newman Springs Rd., take the second or third entrance into the parking lot. The first "entrance" is exit-only.

Amazing selection. Great staff.

Awesome selection. Most extensive beer selection in the area. Prices can be hit or miss on discounts depending on the week but the selection can't be beat

Love this place. Fair prices. Great selection and they are very helpful in trying to order things, even if obscure.

My favorite store and that clowns been there since I was knee-high to a grasshopper LOL it actually was a food store I remember I was in there with my parents and it was a lobster tank and I was fascinated by now I'm fascinated by what alcohol to buy LOL good prices good selection

Circus got me through the pandemic! Kidding aside, their selection is phenomenal - both for wine and beer, their staff is always helpful and prices are great.
