Is there a store near Horton Plaza that sells table wine and bag-in-box wine? Do pharmacies sell wine (as they do in states such as Florida)?

There is a Ralph's Grocery Store across the steet from Horon Plaza on the south west side. They sell wines including bag-in-box wine.

101 G Street
(619) 595-1581

Most big chain Pharmacies, such as CVS, Longs etc, sell some wine, not a good varitey, but independent pharmacies don't sell wine at all. The prices are better at the grocery stores, Ralphs, Vons and Albertsons, especially when they have them on sale.

A place that sells a pretty good variety of less expensive wines is Trader Joe's. The nearest Trader Joe's to Horton Plaza is in Hillcrest.

This exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks.

Happy to be helpful!

Hi, you can buy wine in either stores like RiteAid, Longs, Walgreens or at supermarkets like Ralphs. There's a LONG'S DRUG STORE on the street level of Horton Plaza & they're usually open till 9pm (Mon-Sat & Sun till 6pm). Prices/selection are limited at that one. There's a RALPH'S SUPERMARKET right by Horton Plaza at 101 G Street and they do have a better selection & better prices than Long's. On the top floor of Horton Plaza, near Nordstrom's, there's also the NAPA VALLEY WINE & GRILLE, a fancy restaurant that might sell wine but at a premium price.
