Create New Wish ListYou probably know by now that Binny’s is coming to Bloomingdale. Watch for our new location at 353 W. Army Trail Road (just East of Stratford Square). It’s not really recognizable as a Binny’s Beverage Depot right now, but in less than a month, it will be stocked full of your wine, spirit, beer and cigar favorites.
The Bloomingdale Binny’s will cover 27,280 square feet, and will featu
re the biggest beer cooler at any Binny’s store (other than our South Loop location). We can’t confirm this, but we’re guessing it’s the biggest in the Western Suburbs. It will also feature one of our largest humidors, and a larger wine cellar than most.
The walls and coolers are in place, and everything is getting a coat of paint. Next will come the fixtures and then the shelves and then the products. The early construction process gives our buyers time to plan out shelf layouts and custom tailor each new location. In the weeks before the opening in early September, expect to see tons of trucks from various Illinois distributors.
The Bloomingdale store will be Binny’s Facilities Director Mike Trella’s 20th storeopening. “It’s going to be gorgeous,” he says. “Each one gets prettier than the last.”

Binny’s is THE only beverage store to simply create awe when you first visit. No need to go elsewhere.

I live in Bloomingdale and couldn’t be happier with your new location. I have a 5.7 litre refrigerator and love the New Castle you sell. Hope you stock it at the Bloomingdale store.
Will you carry beer from the City Brewerey in LaCrosse, WI????? LaCrosse Lager??? I think they used to make an Octoberfest beer too.
The new store will probably carry the Lacrosse 30 packs.
As a local area wine guy I can’t want for the opening day – please have a great selection of Bordeaux – we need it in Bloomingdale!
Hope you guys stock some Gumball Head and others by 3 floyds.. if you do I will be a regular.
Lots of 3 Floyd’s on the shelves here at Bloomingdale right now Vince, but they tend to sell out quickly.
Can’t wait to visit you guys. I’m stocking up on all the Pumpkin beer I can find, hopefully you guys have some obscure ones.
Anthony at the Glen Ellyn Binny’s did a Fall tasting a couple years ago that was awesome. There were about 10 different pumpkins to taste. He even had ice cream topped with Flossmoor Brown.A huge tasting would be an awesome way to open the new store
I did the happy dance when I saw Binnys joining the neighborhood. Please open soon.
My friend drove by and said it looked like you guys were getting your fire and electrical walk throughs done…can we assume you guys are opening this weekend.
Opening the doors for you at 9am tomorrow morning.That’s Friday the 2nd. See you there!
Who is the beer buyer? Can I have their email address?
Multiple people from our place of employment will pass your building daily… Knowing our work day, we will be there daily. Way to go Binny’s planners for an awesome locale!
When is the official opening? I leave right next door and looking forward to walking to get my beer.
