Pennsylvanians can now make a run to state liquor stores for the first time since the coronavirus shutdown began. They just can’t get out of their cars when they get there.
More than 50 state stores in Philadelphia and its suburbs are now offering curbside pickup for customers who call ahead and place an order.
Get the news you need to start your day
If your liquor cabinet is looking a little empty, here are some answers about the new curbside pickup system:
First, call the nearest open liquor store (phone numbers can be found below) between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday through Saturday. An employee will tell you what’s available at the store and can take your order.
Have your credit card ready, because the Liquor Control Board says all payments must be made over the phone. When you show up to pick up your order, stay in your car and it’ll be brought out to you.

Fine Wine and Good Spirits in Media. Stores are taking limited number of orders by phone from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., or until the store reaches the maximum number of orders it can fulfill that day, starting today through Saturday.
Customers may also walk up to stores to pick up their purchases, the Liquor Control Board said.
But remember you still have to call ahead to place the order, pay, and receive pick-up instructions from store employees. When you arrive, of course, you won’t be able walk inside the store like usual. Wait outside at least six feet from others.
Each store will only accept one order per caller per day, and that order can’t exceed six bottles. They also won’t accept returns.
You can opt for that when you call to place your order, the Liquor Control Board says, and the booze will be delivered via UPS.
In fact, the stores are already bracing for them after the huge demand for online orders earlier this month.
“We ask you to remain patient if you don’t get through by phone right away,” Fine Wine and Good Spirits said in a statement. “We’re optimistic our capacity to fulfill orders through our website and curbside pickup will increase in the coming weeks.”
