CHESTNUT HILL, PHILADELPHIA — The Fine Wine & Good Spirits on Germantown Avenue in Chestnut Hill will open Friday with limited in-store public access.

The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board Thursday said five stores in Philly will open Friday with enhanced measures to protect customers and staff.

Among the five stores opening is the Fine Wine & Good Spirits Premium Collection at Top of the Hill Plaza, 8705 Germantown Ave.

All five stores opening are:

  • 180 W. Girard Ave.

  • 8705 Germantown Ave.

  • 1515 Locust St.

  • 3720 Main St.

  • 5235 Frankford Ave.

Customers visiting the Girard Avenue store are advised to enter the store through the parking garage as the Girard Avenue entrance is closed.

With those five stores opening, 554 total stores across Pennsylvania are allowing limited in-store public access

Stores open and their hours are identified on the store locator page of FineWineAndGoodSpirits.com

The following mitigation efforts will be in place as stores resume limited in-store public access:

  • Stores will limit the number of customers in a store at any time, allowing no more than 25 people (employees and customers) in any location and further restricting numbers of customers in smaller stores.

  • The first hour each store is open each day will be reserved for customers at high risk for COVID-19, including those 65 years of age and older. Voluntary compliance from all customers is encouraged in the interest of protecting the health and safety of our most vulnerable community members.

  • Customers and employees will be required to wear masks and practice social distancing, guided by signage throughout the stores.

  • Signage will also direct customers to follow one-way patterns to avoid cross-traffic and encourage them to refrain from touching products unless they intend to buy them.

  • Store employees will perform enhanced and frequent cleaning and disinfecting, and store hours will be modified to ensure appropriate time for cleaning and restocking.

  • All sales are final, and no returns will be accepted until further notice.

Prior to opening to the public, each location was professionally sanitized, and Plexiglas was installed at registers to provide a physical barrier between employees and customers at checkout.

All Fine Wine & Good Spirits employees are being provided masks, gloves, and frequent opportunities to wash hands.

Stores reopening to limited public access will continue offering curbside pickup to the best of their abilities, as they operate with limited staff. The PLCB will also continue accepting online orders at FineWineAndGoodSpirits.com.
