Bargain Booze Opening Times and Locations

Opening times can vary significantly depending on your location. Generally, most locations are open from 10 am to 10 pm, seven days a week. You are advised to check the Bargain Booze opening times of your local branch as there can be regional differences. 

On national holidays such as New Year's Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Christmas, Boxing Day, and bank holidays, the opening times often vary.

Although the chain has more than 570 stores across the UK, it's particularly strong in the north of England, especially the northwest. Stoke-on-Trent,  Manchester and Liverpool have the highest number of branches.

All the stores are easy to identify as they have a deep red background contrasted with gold lettering. The Thorougoods franchise is slightly different but equally recognizable, with white lettering on a racing green background.

Products and Services

As their name suggests, the retailer sells alcohol at competitive prices, aiming to be one of the cheapest on the market while still retaining quality. Despite being a franchise, all of the stores offer a great selection of alcoholic beverages, including spirits, wine, beer, cider, lager, alcopops, and shots. They particularly offer value on larger packs and boxes of alcohol, such as boxes of beers. Multi-offer specials can also be found regularly across the whole range of alcohol they sell.
In addition to alcohol, they also sell soft drinks, e-cigarettes, snacks, and groceries. The amount of these items sold varies depending on the particular outlet, as some offer a wider range of supplementary foodstuffs than others. In every store, however, you will find crisps, confectionery, and other snack-size edibles.

A Brief History of the Retailerhe company sprang to life in 1981 when it developed from an existing wholesale spirits and wine business. Founded by Allan Whittle and Robert Mayor, the inaugural store was in Sandbach, Cheshire. It wasn't until seven years later that the first Bargain Booze franchise was launched. Since then, the business has changed hands several times, most recently being purchased by Bestway in April 2018. It now continues to run under the franchise model, offering all of its franchisees full support with buying, marketing, and logistics.
