This place is AWESOME. I am not going to be really specific about why. Just trust me on this. If you are a cigar lover you will find something you like. Plop your self on one of their couches in the back area and enjoy your smoke. The prices might be a bit high but if it is a good cigar that does not matter to me. This has become one of my favorite hangs in the area. The staff and everyone I have met their has been super friendly. It really is a "great" cigar shop. I don't smoke a cigar too often but if you drop by you will probably see me blah, blah, blahing away here. Just ask my Yelp buddy Steve N. He has listened to me blah blah here plenty of times. It is from that rush of nicotine that comes from smoking a cigar to completion :) read more

That's A Great Cigar Shoppe - What an awesome lounge! - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Schenectady, New York

This place seems like it's still getting up on its feet. They have a mix and match inventory. It's not very well lit, and it feels like your uncles kinda strange basement. BUT they have good prices, GREAT hours, exceptional customer service and there's always a spot to sit and smoke. I feel like this place could be a solid 5 stars if they dumped some cash into it. Cabinet lighting, expand the lounge, get better air handlers, have a "humidor room" instead of just cabinets. I will be back to this review... I want to 4 star this BAD but I have to be honest and go with a 3. Overall : great option if your in the area, just don't expect anything fancy. read more

Smells great. Dude inside was pretty helpful. They were open (which is more than I can say for the place in Scotia). Accepts cash and cards. Ok sized humidor. Two TVs and some chairs to watch a game. I'll be back for sure read more

This is a small shop but has a great selection and helpful staff. The Humidor is not overwhelming and easy to navigate. Great atmosphere with cozy smoking area and includes bumper pool, poker table and flat screen tv with many DVDs available. Prices are good and they have sales on good cigars as well. Worth a visit! Why do I hear Buena Vista Social Club music in my head when I walk through the door? read more

Great place to hang out and have a nice cigar. Owners are nice and knowledgeable about the products they sell. Lots of couches and seating. Big tv always playing sports or movies. Easy parking lot. Always enjoy going here to get out of the house and hang with the guys read more

I have never been to a better cigar shop. Someone else has said it, but I'll reiterate it, it's more like a social club with a cigar shop in it, rather than just a mere cigar shop. Stepping through the doors of this establishment is like stepping back in time, a time when people held doors for one another, read the paper (actual printed page) every day, and actually took the time to enjoy the finer things in life like a good hand rolled cigar. The shop is well stocked and the prices are as reasonable as you could find just about anywhere. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. And if they don't have what you're looking for, they'll do their best to get it. Everyone I have ever brought to this little gem has become a regular. This is one of the best cigar shops in the Capital Region, and possibly in the whole state. I highly recommend visiting this place and spending some time, you won't be disappointed. read more

My wife and I wanted cigars when visiting upstate NY. We went for a healthy run in the morning and searched for a cigar shop nearby downtown. So we finished our run and headed over to the shop since they opened at 10 am. They had a large assortment to choose from. And the prices were reasonable. We loaded up a box or two. The staff/manager/owner was very helpful and nice. He even offered to give us a ride back to our hotel since we bought so much. After all we ran, and had to carry our loot back to the hotel in running gear. I recommend this shop! read more

I have been using this place as my go to since they re opened and I love it here. Awesome selection with decent prices and the staff is always great about answering any questions you may have. Every now and then they have events which are always a good time. I've been here the past two nights with friends who came in from Florida and the lounge is perfect for horrible ny weather. Would absolutely recommend anyone try this place out! read more

I found this store while in town on business, and I have say it is great. From the moment I walk through the door it was like I was sitting in my living room. Everyone I met was very friendly and welcoming, and there was plenty of room to sit and enjoy yourself. The only reason I am giving them 4 vs 5 stars is because of the small cigar selection. Not that I had trouble finding something but the selection was a little small. Great store and I'll be back. read more

Great place to spend an evening enjoying a cigar. The owner has a wide selection in his humidors and he's always got a smile on his face. You won't find a more friendly guy or honest business owner. He loves and is loyal to his faithful clientele, but is also thrilled to see new patrons in the shop. The atmosphere is great, very personal. There is plenty of seating with a great TV and a stocked bookcase full of DVDs. Check out the website/facebook page and stop in, this place is a bright spot in Downtown Schenectady. read more
