I've been to Exotic Blends Cigar Lounge a handful of times, and every visit starts the same way: with a warm "Welcome Home" from the owner or staff. That level of hospitality really sets the tone for the experience.
The lounge has plenty of seating and parking, a full bar, food options, complimentary popcorn, and even a patio area for enjoying a cigar outdoors. During colder months, propane heaters help keep the patio comfortable. One thoughtful touch that stands out is the bathroom amenities, including mouthwash and disposable toothbrushes with toothpaste.
The humidor offers a great selection of cigars, and the owner is extremely knowledgeable about the inventory. If he's busy, there's usually another cigar aficionado around willing to help. In addition to cigars, they stock torches, cutters, and other cigar accessories, making it easy to grab everything you need in one place. The lounge also features TVs, music, dominoes, and chess, making it easy to relax and spend a few hours there.
They regularly host events, including Thursday night summer concerts featuring both local and nationally known artists, often accompanied by food trucks and other vendors. They've also hosted special events and celebrity meet-and-greets, including a recent appearance by Marlon Wayans. Whether you're looking to meet new people, enjoy a cigar with friends, or have a private conversation, Exotic Blends offers an atmosphere that's hard to match. Definitely recommended. read more
