This place is a little gem in Harlem. They have a great selection of cigars and the lounge area is comfy and cozy. I came here to chill out and have a smoke before I had to leave for JFK to fly home. I'm so glad I stopped here! I was helped by a young lady who helped me pick out some cigars and I ended up buying a box and several singles. When I moved to the lounge to have a smoke, she offered me a cup of coffee. You need to have this coffee! It is excellent and a great accompaniment to a cigar! I will be returning to Manhattan in the near future and will definitely be making a stop here! read more

I'm visiting NYC and decided to check them out after seeing solid reviews on Yelp and their website. Took an Uber over, tried the door--locked. Knocked, and a woman comes to the door and tells me they're CLOSED and asks if I can come back next week. I explained I'm just visiting... didn't matter. At the very least, update your website so people know you're closed. read more

After a long long day this is the best spot to relax, have a great cigar listening to some good music, love the atmosphere and the people here I will be back for sure read more

Harlem Cigar Room - Cigar Bars Near Me - New York, New York

I stopped by Saturday night and it was jammed packed . Despite that service was actually swift. To my knowledge there was no food there but you could bring it in. The ambiance was no thrills just a lot of places for you to sit and just relax to watch whatever game is on . This was a man's lounge really . read more

Good cigars, good music and good vibes. The service was helpful in their cigars choices. They had good quality sticks that were fresh. I originally came in to pass he time so I told them I was open to trying recommendations. I told them told my stick of choice is a Padrón, Partagas or any good Nicaraguan tobacco. They recommended that I try their cigar that's made custom for their bar. It was a medium blend and I was actually surprised. The taste was smooth and robust. The flavor notes blended it well. The stick was regular size so it took about 45 min to smoke, but while I was there they had on the baseball game and they were playing some good tunes. This is also the first time I've heard hip hop in a cigar bar and that was something I really appreciated. read more

The restaurant is well lit and spacious. Immediately after I entered I was warmly greeted and seated. The waiter was knowledgeable of the menu and took the time to explain the dishes to me as it was my first time trying Turkish cuisine. The food came shortly after and I was not disappointed and the tea was amazing. 10/10. I definitely will visit again when I'm in town. read more

Service was very good and friendly. My issue was that the filtration system was TERRIBLE. My eye bothered me for two days straight.

Harlem Cigar lounge is a pretty lowkey and chill spot if you want to get out of the house, not be around a lot of people and of course if you want a quality cigar. It's a very intimate and comfortable setting as well which I appreciate. They give you the option to bring your own bottles and they provide you with a glass too. My only complaint was that although the hostess was nice and inviting, she recommended a cigar that was harsh and I asked for something that was sweet and smooth. I would still definitely recommend visiting this spot. read more

This summer, I took my daughter out to New York to visit campuses. We went to NYC and Columbia. While out there I decided to visit local smoke shops. I wanted to visit Harlem as well so I decided to stop by the Harlem cigar room. I'm glad I did! It's a small quaint shop with a small lounge. But I found myself in nice conversations with two local gentlemen. The prices are reasonable and the quality is outstanding. I definitely will be back on my next visit. read more

Harlem Cigar Room - Smooth and friendly lounge - Cigar Bars Near Me - New York, New York

What a great experience. I wander into this place after having brunch in Harlem. I was created by the owner Odin and was the oly person in there on this Sunday morning. While in his humidor he walked in and gave recommendations. We began to talk and I told him I was visiting from LA. I say begin to smoke and folks started coming in to watch football ( it was Sunday morning) I was treated like a King by Olson. The crowd was great. I made some new cigar friends. It's a BYOB place, but just so happens the Clas Azul bottle found me. I had to go back on Tuesday night after a concert to hang out again. A few of the same folks from Sunday were in there and you know my name was "LA". When I walked in the door I was greeted by Odin again and had another great experience. Thank You Odin & friends at THE HARLEM CIGAR ROMM for a great experience. See you again in a few months. Tell the guys I'll have the bottle when I come back. LOVED THIS PLACE! read more

Harlem Cigar Room - A little Saturday afternoon smoke. - Cigar Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Came here for an event. It's BYOB while I don't smoke it was a chill environment to be in. It's very cozy and there's a TV to watch your favorite sports game. You can purchase cigars here or you can bring your own. If you bring your own there is a fee. I would definitely suggest this place for cigar smokers. read more

Excellent service, good selection, including some cigars rolled on site. It is BYOB with a service fee, so be prepared.

I came to Harlem Cigar Room during a recent visit to Manhattan and was immediately greeted by Felix who was warm, welcoming and FUNNY! He offered suggestions and was super friendly. The interior is comfortable and relaxing, not to mention BYOB! He changed the television to sports for us and was the BEST host. He even read my mind and brought me a foot stool to allow me to "kick my feet up." Overall, an awesome experience. Definitely recommend! read more

Note recently this place has had a name change so now it's known as Harlem Cigar Lounge but still isn't bad but it can be a little tricky with a high crowd night in terms of space & such especially when I had my 44th birthday or did a enjoyment thing there (just a wee tricky). read more

Service and the ambience was very nice. I really enjoyed myself..I give this a five star!

I'm new to cigars. I received help in selecting my first cigars and smoking them. Nice place with good vibes

I NEVER write reviews but this story needs to be shared. The owner Felix of Harlem Cigar Room went above and beyond to make sure my mother got her cigars. The USPS sent back my mother's gift to Felix. So, he called me to apologize for the issue and asked if he could drop it off at my mother's apartment. I was happily surprised to hear from Felix and was thankful that he waited for my mother to get home (that took about 20mins) and directly delivered my mother her gift. I live in LA but I will be ordering my cigars from Harlem Cigar Room from now on. Thank you again Felix. read more

Extremely well annointed lounge that has a good amount of comfortable seating and a pretty good selection of cigars. Staff is welcoming, not pushy and will make suggestions when asked. I came here to try some of their house blends and was not disappointed. Adam walked me through their house blends and I chose a few. Flavorful at a resonable price point. I plan on putting this place on my my regular rotation! read more

Ladies! This is a hidden gem! Love being in a place I can calmly smoke my cigar without being harassed. It is a small yet comfortable place where you dont feel crowded at all. Each chair is very spacious and makes you feel you are powerful and in control. The place is not expensive in comparison to Club Macanudo and me and my friend smoke 2 cigars each and bought water bottles and it still came out to less than $50. This would NEVER happen elsewhere. The gents were watching the game on big screen and there are lots of regulars here. Don't forget to tip the nice young lady working there. read more

Harlem Cigar Room - This is the place! Nice pic of the hostess and the owner! - Cigar Bars Near Me - New York, New York

I was told about Papa Juan's through my cousin, who originally got me on the cigar train (so to speak). The location is convenient for me because it is on a near by train line that I can get on from work, and my favorite bar is a short walk away, The place is a BYOB establishment, but there is a small per person drinking fee (they do provide glasses and ice). The sticks are fairly priced, and if you bring your own sticks there is a cutting fee per cigar. HOWEVER, if you purchase one of their cigars, this fee is waived entirely. The atmosphere is very friendly, and if you go after work it's basically empty. There have been times where we were the only patrons in the place. This is nice because you can really watch whatever you like, or request the type of music you're into. They are very accomodating. The girls who work there are friendly, and easy on the eyes :o) . Coming through the door, as you settle in, they welcome you in and offer to hang your coat. All of the times where I've brought in a new bottle, they've been attentive and kind enough to break open the bottle and poor the first drink. An extra step that has been noticed, appreciated, and in a way spoiled me (haha). The decor is what's to be expected from a cigar room. Wood, leather, earthy feel. Now, why 4 and not 5 stars (I want to give a 4.5)...The service here has been great...however, as of recent (month or so) PJ's has lost IMO their best hostess. The service received on my last visit was a bit lacking, given that there was barely anyone in the place. I don't want to be too picky, but at first entry my cousin didn't even think there was someone in the establishment (I guess she didn't show and it seemed unattended.) Also, it did take a bit to grab the attention of someone just to get our tab. Call me spoiled, but when someone sets a standard, you come to expect that standard. Nonetheless ,this is my favorite get away for the evening whenever I need a smoke. Walk in and check the place out. I'm sure you will have a good night. read more

Had a really great night at PJ last evening. A short stop-in turned into an all-nighter, and I met a lot of great customers and staff. I learned about PFCR from friends up the street at Tonalli Cafe. I was shopping last night and suddenly remembered this place I had been told about. Kept my eyes open, and sure enough, found the place on the corner of B'way and 141. Am impressed with the cigars I purchased. The torpedo-shaped maduro (dark) was nice (bought three, and also received two complimentary PJ house blends). Also I like the idea of a BYOB club. Not sure I'll use that feature much, but I think it's good for the clientele and the neighborhood. PJ is doing Harlem and the Latino community proud. I'm honored to have them down the street. Normally I hang out at Nat Sherman and Cigar Inn at 71st. I like places where everyone is welcome and there are no "outsiders." As a Norske/Kraut/Mick I could not have felt more at home. Was served well by a beautiful young lady who welcomed me and shared the specials and prices, and by the rest of the staff. So glad they have Wi-Fi. Every cigar room should do that. When I purchased my first stick, I invited a friend who didn't show. It was no big deal. I had planned to get some work done at home, but the cigar totally chilled me out and gave me a vacation from my week. I did not want to leave. The prices are okay, not great, but are actually very worthwhile if you factor in the specials. I purchased three $11 sticks and also got two at no charge. Nice. I would appreciate some signage on the cigar boxes detailing price per stick, as well as the specials of the day. I always appreciate being able to shop without having to ask the price of each stick. But no big whoop. Looking forward to more evenings spent at PJ. (Maybe a few Saturdays?) And here's a shout out to Samir, Ravi, Danny and the rest of .pk gang -- from your "dot.pk friend."

Came here on a wednesday night with my bf. We were warmly greeted by the owner- Whom I recognized from college. We felt very comfortable and at home due to the ambience and mature crowd. Wednesday nights are ladies night so ladies get a free house cigar! YUM! The owner allows you to bring your own liquor and cigar- You only have to pay a fee for the liquor bottle of your choice and a cutting fee for your personal cigar. Will be back very soon! This place rocks! read more

Great place. Plenty of seating and a great selection. The customer service is just like the regulars. attentive, courteous and welcoming. The prices are very good and rare cigars not found in the area to include a very solid house blend. read more

Stopped in when I was in town over the Christmas holiday and it was packed both times I was there. Lively! Definitely not your grandpa's Cigar shop, with the salsa music playing in the background. They charge $8 if you bring in alcohol, which is kinda overkill. But they need to make money, so I get it. They don't have the largest humidor, or a huge selection, but the house blend cigar is pretty good. As Danny one of the regulars told me in his Dominican accent, "You home maine, You home."
