Wow! A cigar a week is one of my few vices, that said, I really enjoy cigar lounges that have excellent filtration systems.
Hemen Lounge is brand new and less than 30min from the crib. My first time was last night and my friend had to act as the designated spotter to find it. Talk about up in the cut.. Omg! I drove past it three times before she said.. "there it is, next to the Ax Throwing place".. Lol!
Finally, we entered and was thoroughly impressed. We started in the huge non-smoking side to partake in a little Happy Hour food and drinks that last until 9pm Mon-Fri.. Can't beat that. It has a large bar, table seating along with booth seating if that's your desired choice. It had a setup for the guest band, dance floor and a DJ. Hookah is also allowed on this side so I guess it's not TOTALLY non-smoking.. Lol.
After our bellies were full, we stepped into the cigar lounge and I thought I was in Atlanta, where all the lounges have amazing ventilation systems. No smoke smell AT ALL! It has two giant tv's as we enjoyed watching the US Open. It has a nice sized bar and several tables for large crowds. The humidor is modest, however, you can bring your own stogies and there's no cut fee attached.. Dope!
Drinks prices are excellent for such an establishment. Less than $20 for a generous Basil Hayden's pour had me giddy!!
Service was spot on and I had to force myself to leave or I would have definitely been tipsy!
If you love a good stogie every now and then and your girl won't go with you because of the smell, take her here, she won't be complaining and you'll both have a great time!!! read more
