The Vintage Cigar Bar is hands-down one of the most beautiful and relaxing spots I've been to in…read moreNorth Carolina.

On point. The cocktails are crafted with care and the bar menu complements the cigars beautifully. It's the kind of place where you can sip, smoke, and actually have a conversation.

If you're looking for a classy spot to enjoy a good cigar, a great drink, and even better company--this is it. I can't wait to come back

Just tried to experience this bar on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate a birthday with friends. I was…read morethe last of two people to join a party of 5 that were already in attendance. We were immediately turned away because we had on sweatpants. The attire rules are posted at the door in a very abrupt and abrasive way and we were quickly approached. The bar was near empty, we only wanted to continue our friend's bday celebration. There was a white server that walked right by us and entered the cigar room with the black server. She didn't say anything to us but the black server immediately came out and told us we needed to leave because of our attire. We were kempt and professional, yet casual. The servers had on uggs, leggings, half zip nylon pullovers, and had the audacity to approach us about attire. I will never, ever, spend my dollars, nor recommend this place to anyone...for ANYTHING.

I have visited the lounge before when I lived in Charlotte, and I enjoyed my time previously. I was…read morein Charlotte for the holiday, and my partner and I decided to visit. I did not like how the man at the front looked me and my partner up and down as if we did not belong when we walked in. We asked him a couple questions regarding the available cigars and other questions when we first arrived and it was as if he did not want to help us. This frustrated me even more as I watched him interact and willingly help those that came in after us. I am not sure if I will return. As a person of color, it's frustrating and disappointing to see another person of color treat you like you don't belong and as if you are below them.

I had grabbed some DBL box pressed cigars and the fat tall white dude in the full brimmed hat that was working, came up and took them out of my hand and started ringing them up, I told him I was still going to grab more and he rolled his eyes and walked off. One of the guys had an alarm go off on his cell phone and turned it off within 5 seconds the guy walks up with a look of annoyance and angrily says, "is someone's phone alarm going off?" "Uh yeah mine was, I turned it off..." the dude says. The fat white dude working says "there is alot of chaos over here..." while motioning with his hands, "lots of noise!" The dude says "I turned my phone off." "Thank you" the worker says sternly and walks away. So I keep having our conversation and I look at the register, the guy working keeps motioning for me to hurry up. So I say, "I'm still getting more cigars man." He literally rolls his eyes slaps both of his hands off the counter, lets out a huge sigh and walks into the back. So I grab some more cigars and go to the register... he says "do you want any of these cut?" I say "yeah could I get the DBLs cut..." and before I can finish he stares down at the counter and motions with his hand in circles and says "what kind of cut?" "V cut please" He let's out a huge sigh rolls his eyes and starts unwrapping them. So I say " if you don't want to cut them dude you don't have to." He looks up at me, doesn't say a thing then starts to cut the cigars, but he doesn't just cut them he angrily cuts them with so much force he grunts and tosses them back onto the counter. So I say "you alright man?" He sighs a huge sigh again grits his teeth and starts to tell me that the refrigerator is broken, Yada Yada Yada. Anyways, the guy is a effing prick, he treated me like I was taking up his time, I was only in there for like 10 minutes and spent over $100 on cigars... he took them out of my hands when I wasn't done looking, cut them like he wanted to kill them and gave me so much fuckin attitude. If you get Dean, you'll be super happy, but the tall fat white dude is a complete @$$hole. It sucks because I really like this place, but that dude cannot control his emotions, maybe he didn't like me, I don't know. But it turned me way off of this place, I will still go, but if I walk in and see him I'm walking the eff out. I never want to see that guy again.

Do a limited seating where you have access to a table but if you're OK with putting your laptop in your lap are sitting at the bar there's about four seat. They do have a domino table I think is amazing. I could definitely see myself in there having a drink price of dominoes smoking a cigar. Definitely if you're in the area a place I would check out.

My friends and I just waited around by the bar for about half hour before a table was available. Our server Polina was great--friendly and attentive.

We let the server know we received cold fries so she informed us she would get us some fresh fries. Cool, so we continue eating and wait on our fresh fries. About 15 mins pass by, still no fries. So we tell the owner. He goes to the kitchen comes back out and walks right past our table. A few minutes later we finally get our fries. We expressed our grievance in having to wait on hot fries when they should have come out hot to begin with and was told that they brought us the fries and that was all they were required to do. Don't like how it was handled as I've been compensated for inconvenience by other places with no problem. In the end we were given a 10% discount but it was after we spoke up and the owner didn't seem to care when I told him that he actually lost out on more money because we were ready to go after they when we were initially going to stay longer and order more drinks.

It is amazing to come in and be greeted warmly with a smile, engaging conversation, and a great cocktail.

The best part is you know they truly want you to have a good time and that's exactly what I have. Bring a date here too for a change of pace from your normal restaurant. You'll be glad you did!

Wow what an experience! I'm in Charlotte for the weekend, and my good friend's colleague…read morerecommended we come here after dinner for drinks. There's outdoor seating, and initially we wanted to sit outside but we didn't have reservations. Luckily, they seated us at a small corner section near the back of the bar. It's very cozy and intimate inside. Just my type of vibe. The service was top tier. They were unable to validate our parking because of some sort of discrepancy with the signage outside and lack of having the proper equipment for validation. To make up for it, they offered us complimentary champagne to start. We were not expecting that, and pleasantly surprised! Their menu has an eclectic selection of cocktails, both full and mini. We opted to order from the mini cocktail menu, and we each ordered two drinks. I had the Creepy cucumber cocktail and it was refreshingly sweet and probably my favorite drink of the night. I also ordered the Don't Shy Away which was a sour and spicy rum concoction with carrot in it. It was definitely spicy and had a puréed texture. I really enjoyed it. And, then don't get me started on the music!!! The dj was masterful. He played all the types of music I love and he mixed them in such a refreshing way. I ended up asking him for his contact information before leaving, and whether he does weddings because my fiancé and I are currently looking for a DJ. He was just that good. This would definitely be my spot if I lived here in Charlotte. It was the perfect way for us to end the night.

Ugh, I so wanted to LOVE this place! It's in my friend's neighborhood and near some other spots we…read morelove. But it just hit me as average. It's a small intimate setting and I do love the dark aesthetic they did. Gives it a swanky vibe and makes a great date spot. But they were burning incense in the tiny space and it was overwhelming. The other bar guests sitting next to us agreed. *They did finally pick up on it and the staff moved it toward the kitchen door* Staff was friendly as well, though, it was busy and looked as if they had a trainee in tow, so attention was lacking just a bit. So why we came: The drinks were average to me. One was weird (Pineapple Fried Rice) and I just couldn't get it sit well on my palate - and I tried - sip after sip. But the mixologist saw my struggle and swapped it out for a different one. I did like the Don't Shy Away - it was an interesting take on a margarita with a strong carrot base. The Whispering Dove was a take on a Paloma and I couldn't find the lemongrass infusion on my palate. So I found it pretty basic, but pricey. So overall, decent. And I might stop buy if I was stuck in the area again.
