Friends of North Loop Wine & Spirits,
Like everyone else during these trying times, we are taking all possible precautions for the health and safety of our staff and guests in the store. We are doing everything in line with WHO and CDC guidelines to minimize risk while still being available to you. For the time being, we will remain open regular hours. A few requests from us for a safe shopping experience:
Social Distancing: Stay in your lane.
Stay in tune with the CDC's social distancing guidelines. Wait your turn to walk down the aisles and stay back from the next shopper. Do not crowd the registers - give the people in front or behind you space. Even if this means breaking the line.. we'll keep track of who was next to checkout.
Minimize Contact - ask an employee for help.
If possible, please refrain from touching bottles and cans, especially in the beer cooler. Please ask for assistance and minimize the amount of surfaces touched.
Sanitize, Sanitize, Sanitize.
Wash your hands before you enter, wash your hands when you leave. And again, please try not to touch anything more than necessary inside the shop. Our employees will be on top of cleaning and sanitizing all surfaces constantly but you can help us make it even more effective.
Call Your Order In. CURBSIDE PICK UP
Creature of habit? Or willing to take our recommendations? Call in your order ahead of time.. we will have it ready for you so all that you need to do is pickup, pay, and leave. Again, it is about minimizing contact and time spent in store. Pay over the phone and we'll gladly meet you outside for curbside pickup. Just call us when you get to the parking lot. REMEMBER, WE HAVE PLENTY OF FREE PARKING.
STAY HOME. Use Our Delivery Services.
The ultimate social distancing.. stay home. Let us come to you and let us leave your goods outside your door. As usual, we offer free delivery for all purchases over $25, before tax, within a 5 mile radius. During this time, we will deliver for under $25.00 but it will come with $5.00 delivery fee. Tips for the drivers are appreciated. Of course, with higher than usual delivery demand, please note that deliveries may take longer to arrive than normal and we may not be able to guarantee an exact arrival time. We also ask that if you have a front desk or concierge service, we can deliver it to there.
If you prefer to stay home, especially if you feel unwell at all. Let us deliver. Have us pack up a 6 or 12-pack of new wines to explore during your quarantine. If you look inside and the shop seems crowded, please wait to enter until an appropriate amount of people have exited. Remember, patience is a virtue. We will help you!
In the meantime, all back table tastings will be on hold but we may have a couple bottles open on Friday and Saturday for us to pour for you while you shop. Just ask.
Thank you for your cooperation,
The Team at North Loop Wine & Spirits
