The Town Cellar
Grapes + Grains + GiftsSince 1975
When Lauren Hokin’s grandmother, Connie Barnum, opened Glen Liquors in 1975, it was a tiny package store across from the Noroton Heights train station. During the next five decades, the store became a part of the fabric of the Darien community. Here we are almost 50 years later in a new location, with a new look and the same thoughtful approach to sharing our favorite grapes, grains + gifts to elevate your toasting, pairing and entertaining experience.
