Please change your attitude Mr. Allam,
A kind request to the manager on duty to teach him how to deal with customer despite's having poor communication skill.

I love these guys. I've been coming to this place for a few years. Alcohol prices are great, but cigarette prices high. Still, lovely people and a cosy little shop
Nice beers as well.

A bit pricey for such tiny servings and moderately ok-tasting food. My friend and I split the smashed avocado on toast and banoffee crepe between us and for around ~ 30 AUD per head you'd think you'd get a bit more for breakfast. It was an ok meal overall, just wish the servers had been more attentive to our table.

Sharing this for the first time after countless of visits. Mostly here for dinner. Petition is an upscale casual restaurant located inside the State Building in Perth CBD. It has a nice vibe and very popular. They have the best Broccoli & mixed grain salad, ever! The last time we dined here, we ordered chargrilled octopus, beef rump, heirloom carrots salad, broccoli salad, lamb loin and a few others. We enjoyed the food as usual but I must say for the very first time that the lamb loin was a let down. The taste was just not right. I’m sure this will be fixed. I didn’t take any star off because I’ve been here many times. This doesn’t tarnish the restaurant’s reputation in my eyes. Definitely will return to dine for more.

Diverse range of wines from everyday drinking to something special. Friendly staff know the curated wines on offer and are happy to assist in finding the right bottle for the occasion. Always a go-to place for a satisfying buying experience.
I had a rather unpleasant experience with the Vintage Cellar Carlton recently. I wen to pick up the wines I ordered through their website (click & collect). The shop has no clear signage on which counter to pick up the online orders. I gave my ID to the staff and was asked if I am here to pick up Uber eat. What gives? After the initial confusion we eventually got what we came for. However, there was no basic greeting from the staff and he seemed rather annoyed the whole time. The wine was good but the experience in the shop left a bad taste in the mouth.

Stop using Drive Yellow as your delivery partner. They are extremely unreliable and never deliver. Issues every single time we order.

Superb evening at The Wine Corner. Rachel is an absolute superstar, friendly, accommodating and beyond helpful for a very large unorganised group. Hospitality was outstanding - whatever you are paying her it aint enough! The food and cheese were sensational as well as the variety of wines on offer. Make this your local.

My first visit to Petition, I had a late Saturday breakfast there. I had shakshuka and a long black coffee. I liked the atmosphere, the taste of the coffee, the warm bread that came with the meal and the dukkah on the egg yolk. Service was polite. A good first impression.

Very unhappy. Waited at BWS lygon court for ages for a staff member to return. Left and went to this BWS only to find this staff member had also left. Their sign said 7.45pm and it was past 8.30pm. What is going on with your staff!! You lost a lot of business as a result as many customers came and left

Enjoyable food in a nice atmosphere with attentive staff and quick service. Their menu seems to change regularly and they offer a wide range of meals, with our small selection being well prepared, at the table within 10 minutes of ordering and of amazing taste.
The only downside is that their breakfast menu ends around 10:30, but that is likely less of an issue for you than it was for us 😉
The shop layout is smart, bright; and the staff are friendly to help

Very disgusting customer service by one individual, was very rude and ignorant. Accused me of stealing after I just purchased items and he couldn’t provide any evidence. I even gave him permission to pat me down. Putrid, didn’t even receive an apology.

Ordered 5 bottles of cabernet savignon on 25 May from Carlton BWS for a dinner tonight (Saturday). Go to open the first bottle to see I have been delivered Chardonnay...not a red in sight. Seriously poor and extremely disappointing!!!

How handy is this place? good selection of wines and beers. Super friendly owner, very helpful and when he found out I just moved here, we had an awesome lil chat. Prices were really good too. I shall get most of my treats here from now on. Always shop local when there is such great service
Let me tell you something about Wine Corner. These guys know their stuff. They know wine like I know acting. And let me tell you, they’re good. They’re real good.

You walk in there and you’re greeted by these guys who are so passionate about wine that it’s almost scary. But then they start talking to you and you realize that they’re just really happy to be there and to share their knowledge with you. And that’s what makes Wine Corner so special. They’re not just selling wine - they’re sharing their passion with you. And let me tell you, it’s infectious. You walk out of there feeling like you’ve just had the best wine experience of your life.

So if you’re looking for a place to buy wine, look no further than Wine Corner. These guys are the real deal.
Rachel, the blonde one, is very good and very beautiful

Is someone forcing employee to work there? I shop there at 7:51 pm got slab of corona. Guy in counter was soooo rude didn’t even speak a word at checkout too. BWS need to fix it. Not looking for any exceptional service as I myself work in customer service but just saying “hi” is basic

At Petition, the restaurant service shines with its commendable quality. The staff members are attentive and efficient, ensuring a pleasant and smooth dining experience.

However, regrettably, the food fell short of expectations and left me disappointed. The flavors lacked the desired depth and the dishes failed to deliver the anticipated culinary satisfaction.

Overall, while the restaurant service at Petition is praiseworthy, the food aspect leaves something to be desired. Hopefully, the kitchen can work on enhancing the dishes to match the excellence of their service in the future. 😊

I used Rathdowne Cellars for a corporate event, they were on time with the delivery and the collection of glasses the next day. Super friendly, affordable and easy to work with. The Highly Recommend!
Sorry for such a low rating but I think alcohol is completely disgusting! 🥴🤢🤮
Otherwise looks like a pretty clean place and we can get every alcohol you could ever need their so you go at it alcoholics! 😉
Must of driven past this place 100 times before actually going inside. This place is very relaxed, nice selection of wines to choose from. Food was surprisingly superb, especially that chicken sando. Staff very friendly, all in all really good spot for a drink and a bite to eat!

I am doing my PhD nearby and invariably there are days where I have 14 hr experiments that end at midnight/1am. So to get through the day and make the experiments more bearable I need reward motivation beer! Enter Bottega Tasca. Great craft beers on hand and epic prices!

Also when I’m not lubricating my insides while I’m undertaking eye wateringly difficult experiments I once ventured down to grab a welcome to mum hood present for a colleague. The gentlemen were super polite and helpful in steering me towards a memorable wine gift for my colleague and friend.

Thanks for being open and having the wares which keep me going. If I ever finish my PhD please know that you have definitely contributed to it.

Very friendly owner, you gotta go and pat his kelpie pup he's friendly too!
I was excited to check this place out, however that excitement quickly faded after being patronised by the owner. I asked him nicely if they serve any cocktails, to which he sarcastically said 'um no, we're a WINE bar.' Everyone at my table was taken aback by the delivery of his response, which was undoubtedly rude. They actually do serve negronis and beer so his piggish reply to me was totally unwarranted. For what it's worth, most wine bars in the area serve cocktails, not an unreasonable question for me to ask. Also, whenever my friend and I went inside to order another drink or pay, we had to wait for the staff to finish their chit chat amongst each other before being looked at. Felt like we were intruding on them. Won't be returning. Ghastly and overrated!

went and collected some zero percent alcohol beer. I was wishing to put a remarks to have all the beer chilled if it is possible.

so happy to collect and the guy gave me those chilled bottle despite of me not saying a word. just so happy and pleased with this little perks. I always want an ice cold drink.. wine, beer, cola or whatever it maybe.

it really made my day.. the guy also placed my order inside a box which was really good otherwise, I’ll be carrying everything in my bag.
Great service, selection and atmosphere. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Best wine store in Melbourne, don't @ me!!! Hahaha
The team here are so knowledgeable. Regardless of what’s on tap they will take you through the subtleties of each drop, giggle with you on each delivery to the table and show their true (beautiful) colours. A delightful way to send out the year, thank you xxx

I’ve been a regular customer here for years. Just shown the guy who works there my bank statement detailing a double transaction for the same day, time and amount. His only response is “Oh I wasn’t here that day. Maybe come back another day”. No refund offered. No apology. Nothing. Just lost a customer for life.

Good and clean bws. Well located on lygon, though good luck finding a park nearby! Cool room is always stocked up and the staff there are helpful, though seem like they need a bit more sleep haha.
Great corner wine bar with fun neighbourhood vibes. Will def be back! Super friendly and knowledgable service. Loved their selection by the glass, but you can also buy from their bottle shop with a corkage fee. Delicious menu of mostly sharing food, def recommend the cheese platter and fried cauliflower.

Is this the best wine store in Melbourne?! I vote yes. Impeccable service and knowledge, always keen to help you make a selection that is just right. Offering is fantastic, feels like every bottle has been diligently selected. Second to none in the city for German Riesling options. 10/10 from me!
Beautiful alcohol store to top up on my drinks. Matt who was working was fantastic and had a taste test of one of the champagnes they had.

Nice, quirky bar, with a cool shopfront decor. I was intrigued by the way they spell 'booze' as bws, lol. Good service at the start, but it was hard to get served after my first bottle of wine, they eventually told my boyfriend to escort me out. Weird. Fun night though

The best bottle shop. I buy most my booze here and only don't when it's not convenient. The guys that work here are the best. the knowledge and their understanding and section of wine is great. I dont ever want to go anywhere else. Also very competitive prices. highly recommended
As a local Google guide I was very impressed with the professional services of one of the workers named Peter. I have been in retail management for over 20 years and very rarely have I ever come across such caring and friendly professional customer service . Peter is an asset to the company and I hope he is and will be recognized as that. I will be a returning customer and so will my family and friends.

Excellent Service and extremely knowledgeable when inquiring about a suggested Italian Pinot Grigio, which proved to be an excellent choice. I'm a business owner myself and value great Customer Service and people going out of their way to understand your needs and assist. So impressed I followed them up on purchasing the wine by the dozen as we live out of town and will be using their on-line buying service.

Staff there are what makes this store stand out. Always super friendly and approachable with a great passion for customer service.
Everytime I've shopped here they always are willing to spend the time answering my questions and pointing me in the right direction when trying to find the right product for the right occasion.
You can usually pick up a great bargain, and if you can't find one the staff have always found me something I love.

I went into the store on the recommendation of a friend who knows his wine. Nick was very helpful in providing me with some good quality Italian Prosecco for a gathering at home. He took the time to discuss the wine and find out what we were pairing it with in order to suggest an Umberto Luigi at a reasonable price. Thanks Nick, my wife's fussy uncle was very happy with your choice!
