Burgardt Retail Liquor

If you’re ever out shopping for craft beer, spirits and wine, one place to consider is Burgardt Retail Liquor at 3027 E. Pawnee.

And if you’re all about supporting local, you’ll be happy to know this is Kansas’ oldest family-owned liquor store. Since 1949, they’ve been serving the city of Wichita. I remember going to the store back in the day with my father to pick up whatever he was looking for and saying hi to the original Burgardt owners along with the second generation of owners.

Now the liquor store is on its third generation of family running Burgardt Retail Liquor.

At one point in time, Burgardt Retail Liquor was the largest liquor store in the state of Kansas.

Since then, the liquor store continues to evolve, grow and find ways to better serve its customers.

In recent years, they added Burgardt’s Craft Drafts where you can pick up 32oz crowlers and 64oz growlers to go.

For repeat customers, there’s the Burgardt’s Rewards with monthly drawings of some harder to find bottles in Wichita.

Looking for ice cold beer? There is plenty of that at Burgardt Retail Liquor.

They also carry many higher end bottles if you want to add something nice to that collection of yours.

Aside from that, it’s the personal, friendly, knowledgeable customer service one can expect from a family operated business that’s been around for decades. There’s a reason, they’ve lasted this long.

Burgardt Retail Liquor is located at 3027 E. Pawnee St.

Store hours are Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Don’t forget to follow them on Facebook.
