Oak
Park Liquors – located just one block west of the Oak Park
Piggly Wiggly on the southeast corner of 16th St and 4th
Ave NW. Oak Park Liquors opened for business in 1958 as Minot’s first packaged
liquor Supermarket. Some of the reasons given to shop Oak Park Liquors were:
Convenient drive-in… parking for 50 cars…Most popular brands…Carload capacity
cooler … Chilled soft drinks and mix … All occasion gift wrap … Free ice cubes
… one of the finest liquor stores in the nation….. and it was air conditioned.
In more recent years the building has been a Bar B Que take-out restaurant and
