Beginning Monday, the several Bucks County Fine Wine and Good Spirits stores will reopen to offer curbside pickup.

Pennsylvania is reopening a number of Bucks County state-owned liquor stores after closing them to the public last month as part of efforts to limit the spread of COVID-19.

Stores will take a limited number of orders by phone from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day, or until it reaches the maximum number of orders it can fulfill that day, Monday through Saturday.

Curbside pickup orders will be limited to one order of no more than six bottles, according to the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB). Only one order will be accepted per caller, per day.

Callers will be guided by store staff through products available to purchase at each location, PLCB said. Payment by credit card will be required by phone, and all curbside pickup sales are final, with no returns.

“We’re optimistic our capacity to fulfill orders through our website and curbside pickup will increase in the coming weeks,” PLCB said, adding that customers should be patient trying to get through by phone in the coming days.
