Tabb's (or "Nevada" as it was called for years) is a great little liquor store with a wonderful selection of craft beers, a nice grab-and-go wine selection, juices, sodas, and convenience items galore. As the extremely friendly owners tell me, "if we don't have it, you don't need it." They are my across the street neighbors and I just love this store!
