bottle shops

Packaged beverage stores

Bottle shops are retail stores that sell alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption—beer, wine, and spirits in bottles or cans.

The term is standard in Australian and New Zealand English, where Americans would say liquor store and Britons off-licence.

I'll stop by the bottle shop on the way home.
