Bodega refers to a warehouse meant to store wine. The word comes from the Spanish word apothēca which means storehouse for wines. In some Hispanic communities, you may also find a wine-shop being merged with a small grocery store known as the bodega.
Bodegas are usually smaller than liquor stores and are found in a large number in the city of New York. Though they are smaller in size compared to a conventional wine store, the convenience of a grocery store helps in garnering more patronage and customers. The word is also used derogatorily for women when accusing them of unchaste behaviour. Bodega Bay is also a small town consisting of about 1,500 people in California, US. The Hitchcockian movie "The Birds" was shot in the Bodega Bay.
