Lounge
Dub H.

This place is really awesome. I plan on coming here maybe 2-3 times per year. That's mostly due to membership cost which is the only thing bad about this business. Most of the other cigar lounges have a membership cost of $15/year....here it's $50 PER MONTH!! The perk is you get 10% off of SOME cigars, not even all of them as you'll see a bunch of signs in the humidor that says "no discount on these." I'm only a casual smoker maybe one cigar every month or two, so that would mean I would pay $100 for each time I used the lounge if I got a membership...just not worth it unless you're coming in a couple times a week. In addition to the highest membership cost I've come across, their cigar prices are a bit elevated too. They seem to be about 10-20% higher across the board versus other local shops, this is noted in the reviews over some others from when this was locally owned K&S. However, their selection of cigars is absolutely amazing. Best selection around the triangle. Closest place with as many varieties is going to be JR's down in Selma. They have another membership level that I think they said was $120/month. You get access to a special lounge that's the size of a tiny office located to the right as you come in. They only sell 12 of these and currently 7 of the spots are taken. Not sure why you'd want to sit in a smaller lounge but some people I guess like to show off how much money they spend. The regular lounge is pretty superb. It used to be a State Farm office but Cigar Box took it over after buying K&S. In the past two weeks they have opened a fully stocked bar. I was able to get a double shot of Buffalo Trace for $24 and my buddy got a Guinness for $10. Both pre-tip of course...and that's what's funny since the bar and the cigar shop both use the same POS system, when I checked out with my cigars it automatically asked if I wanted to add a 25% tip. I wonder how often someone just hits yes out of habit? There were probably 12 guys hanging out when we were there and there was no lingering smoke. So this is another thing they've gotten right, perfect ventilation system. At some lounges it feels like you're hotboxing yourself but not here, clear air. The furniture is nice and comfy and spread out throughout. Plus seating at the bar. They have a few fake fireplaces for ambiance and several TVs to watch events. Total capacity is probably around 30 comfortably if the ventilation system keeps up. They have a nice restroom in the lounge but when we used it the toilet ran continuously and the flush handle didn't work so hopefully they address that soon. So my recommendation is if you're going to buy a few cigars get at least $25 worth and use the lounge that day. If you're not going to use the lounge go somewhere else and save a few bucks on your sticks, Apex Cigar lounge is really close. Apex also has an outdoor area which is great in Spring and Fall weather when temps are mild.

Best cigar shop in the triangle. Great selection. My only complaint is the smoking room only seats 6-8.

Been a loyal customer for years. One day I accidently took a gummy thinking I paid for it, but had…read morebrain fog and forgot to do so. The next time I come in, they accuse me of stealing. No asking for my side of the story, no asking what happened No asking for my side on what happened. I got accused of "theft" by the manager without As someone who has been going here for years, I am sad to see how far this store has declined in value. It used to be a place where they care about customers. Now, make one simple mistake, and they turn on you- without even the courtesy of asking WHY or WHAT HAPPENED. WTF?! I would not have felt the need to say anything if this woman just handled the situation differently than she did. All she had to do was ask "care to explain what happened?" and I would have told her my brain farted. What SHE said was "you stole. You looked at your hand, saw you had a gummy, and walked out anyway. "you knew what you were doing". NOT TRUE. I was having a mental health issue that day and no one bothered asking to see if I actually meant to take anything. Had they simply told me "hey, you forgot to pay" I would have gone back and paid in a heartbeat. Instead I get accused of theft without them even checking to see if their own theory is true or not. As someone who has been going here years, let me say this place is no longer a place I enjoy. This place has dropped in quality so much it is clear they are about profits over customers. Congratulations, you just lost one of your most loyal customers. This woman is a bitch.

To start off great location competitive prices a lot of varieties to choose from. I have to to give…read morea shout out to Kye and Lisa, very knowledgeable. Great customer service. Theyreally do know how to talk to people and give the service that's needed. A major big up to both of you. Definitely deserve a raise Tim.
