Find a cigar lounge

Lounges near you, and lounges where you are going

Search from your own location to find cigar lounges near you, or browse anywhere else — a city you are visiting, a neighborhood you are curious about, wherever you happen to be headed next.

Three ways to say where: share your location, type a US zip code, or drop the filter entirely and browse every lounge in the directory. If you are signed in and have a zip on your profile, that is the starting point. Each result shows how far it is, and the list tells you how many lounges matched in total rather than only how many are on screen.

Results sort by distance, so the closest option is normally the first thing you see. One exception, stated plainly: a lounge can pay to be promoted, and while that promotion is running it appears above the distance-sorted results. Everything under it is ordered by how near it is to you.

What a lounge page shows

Every lounge listing carries the details you actually need before you go: name, address, city and state, phone number, website and hours, plus photos submitted by members and reviewed before they appear.

Alongside that sits the community side — an aggregate rating and a review count, so you can see at a glance how a lounge has landed with people who have actually been there.

  • Address, city, state and ZIP, with a map location
  • Phone number, website and hours
  • A description of the place, written when it was submitted
  • Member-submitted photos, individually approved
  • Aggregate rating and review count
  • Written reviews from members, one per member per lounge

Rated by members, not scraped from elsewhere

Ratings come from members of this site, one per member per lounge, not from a scraped review feed or a syndicated star count. Every lounge shows its review count next to its rating, so you can see how many people that average is built on — a long-established lounge and one with a single review are easy to tell apart.

Smoke there, then log it there

A lounge on the map is a place you can attach to a journal entry, not only a listing to read. Log a cigar and tag the lounge you smoked it at, and the same tag is available on a community post — so where you were is recorded as that venue rather than as a line of text that means nothing to anyone else.

Adding one counts

Submitting a lounge that gets approved earns XP toward your tier, and so does reviewing one. It is the same progression the rest of the site runs on — the directory grows because the people using it are credited for building it.

Browse it without an account

The directory is also a set of plain pages: every state, the cities inside it, and a page per lounge carrying its address, hours, phone, website, description, photos and rating. No sign-in, no app — useful when you are looking something up for somebody else.

Add the one you smoke at

Any member can submit a lounge that is missing from the directory — name, address and whatever details they have. A curator reviews the submission before it goes live, so what you find in the directory has been checked, not auto-published.

Once a lounge is up, anyone can rate it and add photos, and those photos go through the same review step before they show.

Still growing

This directory is member-built: every lounge in it was added by someone who has actually been there, and it grows the same way — one submission and one curator approval at a time. Coverage right now is concentrated in a handful of states rather than nationwide, so a search in an area with few members will turn up little or nothing today.

If your local lounge is not listed yet, adding it is the fastest way to fix that — for you and for the next person who searches the same area.

Common questions

How do I find cigar lounges near me?
Open the lounges surface and it sorts results by distance from your location automatically, nearest first — apart from promoted lounges, which sit above the distance-sorted list.
Do lounges pay to appear higher in the results?
They can. A lounge can buy a promotion, and while it is active that lounge is listed above the distance-sorted results. Nothing else about a listing is for sale: ratings, reviews, review counts and the details on the page are unaffected, and a promotion ends when its paid period does.
Are the lounge listings free to browse?
Yes. Browsing lounges is free and does not require an account.
Who adds the lounges?
Members submit lounges, and a curator reviews each one before it is published to the directory.
Can I rate a lounge I visited?
Yes, with an account — ratings and reviews come only from members, one review per member per lounge, with a written review alongside the star rating if you want one.
Can I record which lounge I smoked a cigar at?
Yes. A journal entry can be tagged to a lounge from the directory rather than a typed place name, and so can a community post.
Can I search by zip code instead of sharing my location?
Yes. Type a US zip code, share your location, or clear both and browse the whole directory. Results are sorted by distance from whichever you choose, with promoted lounges above them.
How many lounges are listed?
The directory is member-built and growing steadily as more people add the lounges they visit, so the count keeps changing rather than settling on a fixed number.
