We do everything we can to ensure the safety of our staff, customers, and community.

Our drivers will wear mask while delivering to you and maintain social distancing where possible.

Before you begin shopping with us, you agree that you are of age to purchase alcohol and therefore you or someone 19+ must be present to receive the order.

All our deliveries are now contactless, however you will need to present ID to the delivery driver when they arrive for them to successfully deliver your order. 

If no one of age is home, the driver will keep the order and you will need to reach out to our customer service team at orders@westsidebeerwinespirits.ca or (902) 835-4112 to re-schedule your delivery.

When picking up a Click & Collect order, staff will check the ID of the person collecting the order.

*Note: ID is required due to the contents of the package that is being purchased, as mandated by the government. Age is verified upon delivery by our couriers or staff in store, you must present / have ID ready if you appear under the age of 30 for them to verify. This is also a means to verify that the individual that this package is intended for in the shipping address matches the ID presented.

Canadian liquor laws do not allow us to leave alcohol unattended.

All deliveries are now completely contactless, but someone 19+ must be present to receive the order.

If no one is home, the delivery will be considered unsuccessful. Please see your delivery attempt notice & reach out to our customer service team at orders@westsidebeerwinespirits.ca or (902) 835-4112 to re-schedule your delivery.
