TC's Slide Thru

TC's Slide Thru has become one of Sandusky's better-loved spots for craft beer, and locals are quick to point out it is not your average liquor store. The word around town is that this is the place to come for craft selection, with plenty of IPAs, non-alcoholic options, seltzers, macro lagers, and a nice run of local wines. People who make the trip from Cedar Point talk about it like a real find, and more than a few say they will build a beer run into their next visit.

The cigar side has its own following. Regulars will tell you the humidor here actually works the way it should, which is more than you can say for some other spots around Sandusky, and the selection paired with fair prices keeps folks coming back. If you want something specific that they do not stock, we hear the team is happy to order it in for you, so it is worth asking.

The drive-through is a genuine draw, and people love the convenience of it. Ask anyone who shops here and they will mention how friendly and efficient the staff are, whether you are pulling up to the window or coming inside to browse. The store has been steadily improving too, with more coolers added, better organization, and a stretch of convenience items and a little grocery selection tucked in.

A couple of things worth knowing before you go: they sold their liquor license, so you will not find anything over 42 proof here, and while the beer and wine selection is strong, it leans local rather than sprawling. Some of the stock is kept at room temperature. Still, for craft beer, cigars, and an easy in-and-out through the drive-through, TC's Slide Thru has earned its steady following in Sandusky, Ohio.
