Pouring it on: Drizly to bring booze to Wellesley doorsteps

Wellesley has suddenly become awash in alcoholic beverage options.

Not only are retailers like Fells Market and Roche Bros., gaining permission to sell beer and wine, and new restaurants like Juniper opening with bars, but now mobile app maker Drizly has begun making available the delivery of beer, wine and liquor to people in Wellesley (and Wayland and Weston).

Drizly, available on Apple and Android devices, currently serves consumers in the Boston area as well as in NYC, Chicago and Los Angeles, with plans to expand beyond those cities. The venture-funded Drizly says it does not mark up the prices on drinks it delivers, though charges a small fee for bringing them to your mansion’s doorstep.

Drizly isn’t the first to offer doorstep delivery in town. In fact, Fells Market and some of the others looking to sell beer/wine in Wellesley will provide home delivery. Also, Metro West Wines offered an alcoholic beverage delivery service in town in recent years.
