Excellent walk in humidor with a great selection of cigars. The gentleman running the place was very helpful and knowledgeable of their selection. I found a couple rare sticks I couldn't find anywhere else in the city. I was very impressed and will definitely be coming back. read more

Definitely a hidden gem! Nice lounge with great selection. Located in between a beer shop and liquor store and they allow you to bring in your own alcohol. I'm definitely returning. read more

The Greatest just got better. They moved 2 doors down and now have about 30 chairs and a great ventilation system. If there was one flaw before, it was that your clothes would reek with cigar as well as your hair. Now that is handled. The remodel is killer and they now offer flat screens everywhere. The humidor is 3 times as big. If you want to store in a humidified personal locker, those are available as well. The service is top notch and the knowledge is first class. This will not disappoint if you are into world class cigars. read more

Great cigar shop, great selection and friendly staff!

A very great environment with great regulars. The manager and workers are very helpful and they have a great selection of cigars. Reminds me of my friends cigar shop in California. read more

Friendly, helpful with a great selection. They also treat their service members and veterans with tremendous respect

This place was spectacular! I have been to many smoke shops and cigar bars and this place blew them all away! The guy (sorry I forgot your name) he did a great job showing me and really teaching me what I was looking. He was very knowledgeable and I am very thankful for the experience he gave me at this shop. I will be back and I will tell my friends about this place for sure!! read more

Great Cigar Bar. Te staff is helpful and the cigar selection was bountiful. Go to this bar if you are serious about your cigars.

Great place with a great beer spot next by it. love it. Wish I could smoke my hookah there lol

This place do not cater to woman. They don't let you shop in peace without following you around. Also, smoke ring you have lost another customer. Can someone explain why you sell groovy blue cigars but, can't smoke it in your cigar lounge? Don't waste your time here go to the man cave, r& j, don Oscar, el Cuban. All these smoke lounges are more than happy to allow us to smoke groovy blues there. read more

I came down for my cousins retirement and wanted to buy him a gift. I explained to the employee at the counter my situation and added that my cousin is a aficionado. Not only does smoke ring have a small selection of accessories but the service was the WORST that I've ever received in a cigar shop! The young man disregarded the information about my cousin being an aficionado and proceeded to show me a pedestrian, beginners type selection of lighters. He was giving me the vibe that he didn't really give a f$$$! I ended up finding a classic Rocky Patel ashtray but too my surprise, they didn't even have the box for the ashtray. The associate really showed me how much he cared when he gave me a shipping box full of styrofoam for the purchase!!!! The box looked like it just came off the truck. You mean to tell me that with all the cigar boxes that come in that place the best alternative he had to offer me was that bs!! That was damn near disrespectful!!!!!! So disrespected that it drove me to find another place which was "man cave" and the service was night a day!!!!!! Man cave is 100 times better than smoke ring!!! Better service, better selection and better pricing!!!! I ended up finding the same ashtray for $20 cheaper and guess what..... They had the original Rocky Patel box which is a nice thing to have when giving someone a gift!!!!!! I took the other ash tray back for a refund and they didn't even ask why I was returning it!!!! They just didn't give a damn!!!!! read more

I cannot speak highly enough about this establishment. My Boyfriends birthday was coming up and i was looking for some very hard-to-find Viaje cigars and happened to stumble across The Smoke Ring's website which contained a lot of the cigars in question. I mean this was all really premium stuff we're talking about here. The website had a hiccup or two when I tried to order them, but TSR's contact info was readily available and she gave them a call. Chris was a pleasure to deal with and really helped us out as out-of-state customers. He had the order confirmed for me in minutes after double-checking his inventory, shipped them out promptly, and even included an extra Viaje for "our troubles". In my mind, I didn't have a single trouble with Chris and would recommend The Smoke Ring to anyone. Whether you're in Texas or across the country like us, I'd really suggest doing business them - you won't regret it. read more

Everything you could ask for in a cigar shop! The humidor is extensive and filled with unique boutique brands as well as very popular brands, but what you won't find are mass-market names with low quality. They carry everything from good, inexpensive smokes to exquisite hard-to-find sticks. NOTE: most of us are reluctant to admit that we don't know as much as we'd like about different brands. Be open and ask for help, as their staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and are easy to talk to. The sitting area is filled with leather chairs, marble tables and TVs as well as a coffee bar, espresso machine fridge and ice machine. Don't be surprised if many of the customers greet the employees and each other by name, and feel free to introduce yourself and start a conversation, as the atmosphere is a bit like "Cheers" and is very relaxed. If you're looking for pretentious, look elsewhere, because this place is very warm and relaxing. read more

First time in today have always wanted to stop but could just never find the time. Glad I stopped was greeted as soon I walked in. Service was great and took the time to answer all of my questions even when other customers arrived. I will be back if for no other reason than just to ask questions and get educated about their great selection. read more

The employees were very helpful and patient. Nice people. I was buying presents for my dad, and despite not knowing anything about cigars, they didn't patronize me in the slightest. Great experience. read more

The selection at the smoke ring is all one could wish for. The employees are top notch and really know their smoke. They have recommended several smokes that I would not have otherwise tried. Doesn't get any better. read more
