Proprietor was very knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating . A brilliant conversationalist he was. The perfect match of great craft beers, wines, and everything stronger. He knows the local history and is happy to share it. Can't wait to go back. We travel the state and seek out places like this. This one is a home run. read more

Great Atmosphere. Great People. It is one of the best spots in Austin if you like cigars. Fun fact cigars are stored in the coolest vault you will see :) This place rocks! read more

The Cigar Vault - The Vault - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

See all

Coolest place - the old bank vault as a humidor is really cool. He always takes my calls on the road and sends me a box quickly at a fair price when I can't get there. Only issue is I want a Cigar Vault tee shirt (along w everyone else) and they can't keep in stock, every time they get a shipment they are gone so fast. Just shows how much people love a support a local business that is personable like this read more

I like how Smokey it is in here . I thought about it after inhaling . Felt some smoke, and I loved how Smokey it is in here

This is a great little lounge with its own beers on tap! Their vault houses a small but nice collection of cigars and the ambiance has that small-town friendly vibe. The customer service I received was genuine and they certainly appreciate the military and veterans here. Swing by Buda and get to know some of their friendly locals! read more

The Cigar Vault - View out front. I'm told this was an actual bank over a century ago! They still have the original vault and window bars. - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

My family owned the bank where your cigar store is currently located and if you ever have an event to open the safe please let me know I would love to attend. I do have a signed letter on letterhead from the bank dated 1921 if you would like a copy for the wall. read more

The Cigar Vault in Buda, Tx is a great out of the way stop that takes you back to the old cigar rooms of the past. They offer refreshments and comfy leather seating to just sit back and enjoy your smoke. A solid selection of the old standby cigars like Rocky's, Padron's and Fuentes, and they even had a few Acids as well as other lesser known brands. They offered solid advice on choices, and I found a few I wanted to try out with a new single malt Texas whiskey (reviews on both cigars and whiskey later). Anytime I can find an unpretentious cigar shop, I do it. I've grown tired of the big city, hipster joints that have opened up all over. I feel many of them are run by snobs who value their customers by the money they spend. Enjoying a good cigar and a couple fingers of good rye whiskey shouldn't cost you a day's salary. I've had just as much fun smokin' 50 cent cigars and shots of George Dickel as I have smoking $50 Cubans and $250 glasses of Louis XIII. As you age, life starts to become more about the little things as well as the things we do with those we love. So get out there and support the smaller business owners that are sprouting up in towns all across our great land. There's nothing wrong with the super hip cigar bars as long as you have good friends and family to share it with. The Cigar Vault in Buda gets 4 stars because they didn't have my go to Rocky, but it was an exceptionally charming spot to stop. read more

The Cigar Vault - Panoramic photo from the couch across from the bar. - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

Great selection and knowledgeable staff. Great atmosphere to hang out and puff with a pint.

Love these folks. If you need a good smoke, they are so helpful and knowledgeable. They have a really wide selection.

Wow, this little cigar lounge is amazing, I heard so much about the cool atmosphere and the interior with the cigar vault humidor, I just had to come check it out. What they didn't tell me was about the back patio, now that is a great place to chill and relax. What they also didn't tell me was about the people, now when you talk about southern hospitality and Texas gentleman and gentlewoman they aren't kidding. The crew there are fantastic. I give this place 5 stars. read more

Great place. Very friendly staff. Regulars frequently get hugs. Very nice inside and outside seating. One of the best things about this small friendly Texas town. read more

The Cigar Vault - Comfy leather chairs. - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

This place is awesome!!! I was just "sight seeing" in downtown Buda and happened to stumble across this hidden gem. They took an old bank and converters the vault into their humidor. Their is plenty of indoor seating but for those die hard sports fans, they have an outdoor area with a big screen TV and ample chairs and tables. During the cold Texas winter, they even have an outdoor fireplace to sit by and stay warm. If you're lucky, you might be able to watch a soccer game with all the Irish men who are a great time! Beer on draft or in a can as well as wine are also available for purchase read more

The Cigar Vault - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

Great selection and cool environment. Also stays open later than most cigar shops in Austin!

Thank you for the best Coco in Buda tonight at Coco Jingle! Oh what fun it was to be welcomed into your unique shop.

Cannot say enough about this hidden gem. If you like cigars, this is the place to go. If you like pipe smoking, this is the place to go. If you like beer, this is the place to go. If you like wine, this is the place to go. It's all about the people. Nicest people I ever met. Welcoming, warm people that just want to kick back and chat. About anything. From the staff to the patrons, it just feels like home. Try it- you'll love it. Best little spot in Buda. And hell, in Austin for that matter. read more

The Cigar Vault - Cigar, beer, tv, leather, sports - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Buda, Texas

Have only been twice and would love to keep going, but Caleb was so outrageously rude to my family that we will not be going back.

If you enjoy a cigar, this is your spot. The owner is super friendly and knowledgeable. They also have a great selection of seasonal beers to accommodate your smoke. Very chill and open environment with some cool history. **Spoiler Alert** The main selection and humidor is in the old town bank vault! Great place if your a regular cigar smoker, or a once a year cigar smoker. The patio is very relaxing too, if you want to hang out and enjoy your cigar. One of the cooler places in Buda! read more

My son and I found this place a few weeks ago. Love this place. Friendly. Cozy. Good selection of beer, cigars, and pipe tobacco.

Simply amazing establishment. Looking for a local hang out that feels like home, hanging with your friends in a low key environment...? I stumbled into the cigar vault with my sister visiting from Colorado a year ago, while checking out the local farmers market and antique shops along main street. After a year, my husband who enjoys cigars embarked on a date night ending at the cigar vault. Had a blast! From the time you walk In the door, you are greeted like a friend or family. The conversation is genuine. A diamond on main st. Relaxed environment with exceptional company. Enjoyed the Indoor entertainment as well as the back patio, live music, amazing local beer (not a drinker, but the two wheel logger, by far amazing). The cigar vault has it all, hospitality that exceeds any establishment I have encountered - dont miss out, stop reading this review and get down to main st. And check it out. You wont regret the experience! read more

I've ran into Cigar Vault in Buda when I was looking for a place to smoke a cigar after I picked up my rental car from Austin airport back in November 2020. I should have written my feedback sooner but here it is. I live in North Austin now, but every weekend I find myself driving all the way down here to enjoy a couple cigars and couple pints of Sheamus. I've been to more than 50 cigar lounges all over the world, and this authentic lounge makes it to top 5 for me, hence the reason for the drive south every weekend. The cigar selection is remarkably vast offering a great selection for Maduro line. Staff is very welcoming each time I come in I feel part of the crowd and they sincerely show effort to do so. Great backyard with fire pit and TV offers an enjoyable outdoor smoking opportunity as well as the eclectic interior summarizes the overall authenticity Cigar Vault in Buda has. Absolutely love this place and strongly recommend it to everyone. read more

The guys in the shop are very knowledgeable about what they sell and very friendly will be back

Excellent location for South Side, Super Cool Location on Main Street in Buda, and yes, Humidor is in an actual old Bank Vault. Love it!

Brian was very helpful! I will definitely be back next time as it is a classic cigar shops that is nearby!

This cigar shop is what a cigar shop should look like. No snooty BS here. Brian and Kirby are two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. The cigar selection is enough to not be overwhelmed and the beer is cold. Local brew on tap and they have a nice selection of non-alcoholic beverages as well. If you enjoy a cigar, then you definitely need to drop by and check this place out. read more

This is an incredible shop! Great selection, Bryan and Robert are friendly and helpful, and they always create a nice relaxing vibe. Bryan recently helped me get my humidor seasoned and even took the time to take it home and get it perfect on his own time. Those small gestures mean so much, and they're the mark of a good man and a good businessman. What a great place! read more

This is such a wonderful local cigar shop and more. Located in historic downtown Buda. Step in for for a locally crafted beer or wonderful glass of wine. The humidor is actually the vault that was used in this old converted bank. A great selection of cigars awaits you. It's super relaxing and fun. There is a nice outdoor seating area too! Occasional live music as well. Staff is super friendly. It is a kind, inviting atmosphere. Come visit. You won't be sorry. read more

Love it here! Took my dad and a couple friends on our first visit and we ended up closing the place down laughing our butts off! Very welcoming, friendly atmosphere where it's easy to make a friend... A Buda gem! read more

The nicest people there. The perfect place to relax, smoke a cigar and have a drink! I would definitely recommend!

The aroma allure excites all my senses. I've sashayed by this place a hundred times. Shame on me. I don't smoke cigars. Why would I go in. But today. I stopped. The gentlemen that own this place ARE AMAZING! They have an amazing wine collection and after chatting about my wines likes/dislikes - he poured me a glass. It was delicious. I sat on the man cave leather couch that swallowed me up hugging every curve and enjoyed my glass of wine. My husband smoked his cigar and we laughed and chatted about nonsense as tho on a first date. It was such a delight. A real escape from the BS of everyday life. They have live music and wine tasting events on the regular. I liked their Facebook page so I would know about the hip events they hosted. But the true gem - is to go in low key and chat with these gents and enjoy the chill vibe. read more

What an awesome place, first off it's the old bank of Buda (which in itself means the place has some character). They carry Two Wheel brewing which is brewed half a mile away along with other local beers. The place has a relaxed feel to it with leather chairs and TVs on the wall. Incredibly friendly staff who are more than willing to help out with cigar selection and beer choices. The humidor is the old bank vault with its original heavy steel door and safe. They carry a great selection of quality cigars, ask Brian or Kirby and they will steer you right. If you live in the area or are passing through it is worth a stop. read more
