802bws was originally Merola’s Market for many years. Diane Hazen purchased Merola’s Market in 1998 on the corner of Plattsburg Ave and North Ave, where it had been for many years. In 2010, Diane passed away and her son Jason took over the business.
By 2012 Jason noticed the business was growing, so he wanted to expand it. In October 2014, he relocated the store to less than a mile down the street into the Ethan Allen Shopping Center at 1127 North Ave. and renamed the store 802bws.
We're now spread over 10,000 square feet compared to 3,500 square feet at the old location to meet your beer, wine, and liquor needs. We now have 52 cooler doors for all your needs. Over the past 9 years we have upgraded all out shelves giving the store a new, cleaner look. We have added 2 more coolers to make our store one of the biggest coolers in the city.
802bws is a family-owned business. Along with Jason, his wife and children also work there.
