Port Jeff Liquors Is Open For Business In Port Jefferson Village

First liquor store opens on East Main Street

Stephen Plunkett, owner of Port Jeff Liquors, said he searched high and low looking for the proper location to open a store. “I searched all over Long Island looking for a place where they wasn't already an established liquor store and I found there wasn’t one in Port Jefferson Village. I was surprised no on beat me to it,” said Plunkett.

Plunkett chose a vacant store located on 156-1 East Main Street in the Port Jefferson. He said what sets him apart for other stores is his wide range of pricing, along with his speciality orders. 

“I have mostly every single type of wine. My wines range from as little as $6 to as high as $65. So there is something for everyone. All of the wines I carry are good names,” said Plunkett.
