Calvert Woodley is a proud, family-owned institution with a rich legacy that spans decades. Our journey began in 1982 with the merger of two local icons—Calvert Liquors, with roots dating back to 1949, and Woodley Wine & Liquor, established in 1966. Each brought its own history of quality, passion, and community spirit, laying the foundation for what has become one of Washington, D.C.’s premier wine and spirit shops.
Family-run fixture with a vast selection of wine & liquor, plus a counter for cheese & deli meats.

Nice spot for gourmet food, wine, and booze. Whisk(e)y here ranged from standard stuff to good regional bottles (Sagamore Spirits Cask Strength), unusual items (Jimmy Red Dsicovery Box Set, Indri Trini, Hakushu, BT Kosher Rye), and allocated bourbons (Eagle Rare, Blanton’s, etc., at “DC prices”, but not too egregious). The core selection of bourbon, rye, and scotch is well thought-out and very good at various price ranges (that is to say, you can spend as much as you want but you don’t have to). Helpful and courteous staff combined with good food pairings make this a fun and unique place to shop.

I stopped by this liquor store in DC and had a really good experience. The selection is impressive — from local craft beers and wines to a wide range of spirits, including some hard-to-find labels. The prices felt fair compared to other shops in the area, and they often have good deals if you keep an eye out.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable; they didn’t just point me to the aisle but actually suggested options based on what I was looking for. The store is well-organized and clean, making it easy to find what you need quickly. Parking can be a little tight, but it’s worth it for the selection and service.
Overall, it’s one of the better liquor stores I’ve visited in DC — reliable, well-stocked, and customer-focused

I have been going to this store for 33 years. They are a very good liquor store and have a fantastic deli. The people who work at the deli are extremely knowledgeable about the products and the cheese selection and quality is excellent.

This was a very unfortunate experience at Calvert Woodley. I was there yesterday for the first time further to watching a review on social media. The store is actually great and has an extensive selection of wine and cheeses that I cannot find easily in the metro area.
The cheese guy with the beard was so dismissive and rude that I left the store without purchasing all the items that I wanted. It was a very uncomfortable encounter as I barely got a chance to ask any question or made the request for the items that I wanted.
The owners need to do review their customer service best practices with their employees because this seems to be a common occurrence that they is not actively trying to remediate. I definitely would encourage the public to keep far away from cheese counter.

We recently moved back to Van Ness and it’s been great to be near Calvert Woodley once again. The wine selection is excellent. We previously lived in NorCal and have become quite spoiled for wine, but I have no issue finding great stuff here. I in particular enjoy the wine advocate scores which are prominently displayed throughout the store. At other establishments I’m usually standing around awkwardly googling! The staff are quite nice also. It’s just a great location institution.

This is just a great little gourmet store with a nice wine selection and unique food items at reasonable prices. The guys who work behind the deli counter are masters of their craft! Love to come here for fondu cheeses.

Wonderful wine and spirits store with lots of selections and great prices! Every time I’m there, staff are always friendly, attentive and helpful — always taking the initiative to ask if they can help me find something!

They were very busy on Saturday. Very friendly people ready to answer questions. Their weekly offers are a good bargain. Saturday was looking popular for people buying wine and cheese. I was there as I was looking for a beer that wasn’t available elsewhere. Back Home Beer -Persian lager. If you need a case, you go to the cashier and pay for it and they bring it up to you.
Love that they have parking for shoppers that’s closely monitored to prevent people from parking and walking off.

Calvert Woodley’s is back! I always went there for the joy of discovering new things (Absente) and exploring (new whiskeys) AND the expert advice.
How do you know which cognac under $100 delivers great smoothness and depth? And what are the new sipping bourbons worth trying? Should I take an entire case of that recommended Pinot noir? What cheeses are on sale this week?
FAO Schwartz for adults, but it takes being live for the full effect
