A liquor store but so much more. They have a *great* selection of wines, beers, and specialty liquors including a wide-ranging Texas collection. BUT ALSO it's an amazing plant store that has the best selection in the Big Bend of small cacti up to larger trees, shrubs, agave, ocotillo, etc...Also an A+ selection of local sundries like eggs, mushrooms, produce and cut bouquets of flowers. Easy gifts and great folks too.
