Stopped in around 2:30 PM on a Wednesday to check out The Yard after hearing good things from another cigar smoker. I specifically came looking for Foundation's David, which is something I can't find at my usual lounge. Unfortunately, the box was empty when I arrived, and several other selections appeared to be running low as well. The humidor is smaller and more limited than what I'm accustomed to, though it was clean, well-maintained, and the cigars appeared to be in excellent condition. Prices seemed fair and in line with other local cigar lounges. The atmosphere is very laid back and local. There were only a handful of patrons present, a mix of working professionals and retirees. Seating was comfortable, the lounge was clean, and the bartender stayed on top of housekeeping tasks like emptying ashtrays even while busy. That said, the overall experience felt somewhat unstructured. There were numerous televisions showing different programming simultaneously, no music that I could hear, and no obvious beer or whiskey menu. The beer selection appeared to consist of whatever could be identified from the tap handles and cans in the cooler. As a first-time visitor, I also found myself navigating the humidor alone. The staff were friendly, but a brief introduction or recommendation would have been appreciated. What I did appreciate was that The Yard doesn't seem to be trying to be something it's not. It feels like a relaxed neighborhood cigar lounge where regulars come to unwind rather than a destination built around a curated cigar and spirits experience. Would I come back? Yes. I'd like to see the lounge at a different time of day and with a few friends. My first impression wasn't quite enough to pull me away from my usual spot, but there was enough here to make me interested in giving it another visit. read more

Cigar prices are WAY UP. $14 for a mediocre stick. Overpriced. The staff lady could not have been less friendly. It's like she's never smiled in her life. Beer selection has also gone downhill. Glad they finally made the patio dog friendly, but based on the above it's not going to work. read more

Pleasant staff - very helpful. Indoors lounge with comfortable seats. Well organized cigar room with a wide variety, including great deals. Also there is a very clean outdoor loungin area. Dogs are welcome outdoors. They are not allowed indoors, so plan on tying your dog up while you make your cigar choice. Prices are competitive and range from $5.00 to expensive for premium brands. All major brands are stocked in a controlled environment. Nice location in a small but full strip mall. Highly recommended. read more

Decent place. Small and very new. So far it was ok. Some growing pains, but what successful company/business doesn't go through that at first. Had the cigars me and my party desired. Clean. Didn't go outside as it was very very cold when I visited. Give them a chance. You never know. I bet in spring and fall this place is perfect read more

Nice smaller cigar lounge with a good choice of sticks and draft beers. They have a bar, some tables and a few leather chairs with tables.. they also have outside seating with misters. Worth your time. Clientele is friendly, hostess is pleasant. Give them ago.. read more

The Yard Cigar Bar - Taps from bar.. about 7 TV with sports. - Bars Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Local hang out mostly regulars. Went once. Bartender was on her phone the whole time. So the service wasn't great. Might try again in the winter time when you can be outside and not pass out from the heat read more

Great selection of cigars and great prices! Really good place to lounge inside has comfortable chairs to relax in. The patio outside is also nice to lounge and even play cornhole. The service is very friendly, always saying hi when you walk in. Beers are good but they only have one Stout or Porter on tap. Warning you will get addicted to smoking cigars here with the good selection and friendly service. read more

The Yard Cigar Bar - Barrel aged and chill - Bars Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Best place to have a brew and a smoke! Been coming here for a couple years and am never disappointed. If you wan to chill and watch a game with no drama, this is your place. They have the best deal on tap beer that I've found anywhere in the Phx area and an excellent selection on fine cigars! Great place to chill with your buds or hide from the wife! read more

This is one of the coolest cigar lounge's you'll ever go to. The smallish indoor seating area is cozy and inviting with leather chairs near large windows looking out into the spacious outdoor area. There are outdoor games like cornhole to occupy your time in the blazing Arizona sun which is pretty nice in Winter I'm guessing. Personally, I raided the well-stocked humidor and planted my spacious butt on a barstool and enjoyed craft beer from the taps while I smoked my cigar. The ladies behind the bar were awesome. I plan to return here to smoke and have a beer next time I'm in the area. read more

I'd have to say that this place is... okay. Seems a bit run down and a bit small. The humidor was a little smaller than some of the other bars/lounges I've been to. I was a little concerned about the temperature of the humidor as it was cooler and not as humid as it should be. The selection isn't too bad considering how small it is because they have the more popular brands. My wife liked the selection of the flavored cigars from South Beach. I'm on the fence about this place, but I'd give it another shot to see if I'm swayed one way or the other. read more

Yes son loves, loves, loves this place for his cigar and a couple beers! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!

Comfortable cigar lounge. Good selection in the large humidor. Friendly staff. Indoor and outdoor seating. Low-key.

I decided to give this place a shot because it's closer to my house than my usual cigar spots. As I'm walking in I could see a nice looking outdoor area that is likely the place to be outside of summer however, I went on a day when it was 110 degrees so the indoor area was the the clear option for me. When I stepped inside the very first thing I noticed was how smokey the place was. The indoor area is in clear need of better smoke filtration/ventilation. The humidor has a small/picked over selection in comparison to other lounges/bars in the area. (On a side note, I was surprised to see what would normally be big selling brands at places a customer's eyes rarely go like the bottom of top shelves). The chairs were VERY comfortable. They were my favorite part of this experience. The bartender (if you can even call her a bartender) was on her cell phone when I went to pay for my cigar/buy a drink. I was standing directly in front of her and legitimately had to say something to her for her to look up from her phone and even then, she took time to finish what she was doing on her phone before serving me. The lounge was in need of a clean up (empty cups, full ash trays, ash on the ground/tables, etc...) yet the entire time I was there the bartender stayed on her phone vaping, rarely looking up. Not once did she walk by to ask if I'd like another drink. Typically I go to a lounge/bar 1-2 times per week and I'm usually good for 3-4 cigars and 2-3 beverages. At The Yard, I left after 1 cigar and 1 beer. A small lounge like The Yard naturally cannot carry the widest selection of cigars, they likely only have beer/wine, and won't have the fanciest furniture/decor.... so usually a successful lounge of this size will make up for those items by having outstanding customer service which is what keeps people coming back. Unfortunately, on Sunday 07/17 - The Yard had all of those short comings and the addition of the worst customer service in the area. I'd love to see this place succeed because I love the location and I love the potential of the place but they've got some things to work on. read more

Quiet and enjoyable! Decent selection of cigars (beer, too, I've heard - I don't drink), nice, large patio and clean and comfortable lounge! read more

Love this place, everyone is relaxed, the vibe is calm but fun and Eric the owner has created a sanctuary where all are welcome, which is why he has so many regular patrons. Great beer specials and a good size cigar selection with the best prices. read more

I wanted to love this place but it wasn't all that great. The interior wasn't inviting or comfortable in anyway. I got the sense it's the same regulars that occupy the bar top. The patio is where it's at but you're SOL during the summer months. I thought the beer selection was lacking as well, I've heard its pretty stellar but maybe we came on an off day. read more

Great and really friendly staff. Helped me pick out a new cigar. Good AC temperature inside (especially for the AZ summer). They have a decent beer selection which I enjoy a lot. Very clean and comfy on the inside. Edit: fanciest restroom ever! read more

This is kinda of a cool place. Great beer selection. Don't smoke, but it looks like they have a great cigar selection. Lots of TV's cool patio. They need some live acoustic music or an open mic on that patio. (I know a guy that can play) read more

I want to go back but it's so out of the way for me. Haha I came here with some friends when they were having a radio show about aliens. Super cool if you ask me! Very friendly place and very welcoming. The bar service is quick and efficient. They have a plethora of cigars and are decently priced! I had two while I was there. Again, it's so hard to obtain the atmosphere the Yard Cigar Bar has. I'd love to talk with the owners as a young cigar aficionado. Haha I enjoyed this place so much I even made an effort to follow them on Instagram. As you can see, I really enjoyed this place. Keep it up! read more

There was nothing wrong with this place, but it is just too far for me. Cigar selection is good, had some activities to do outside and they have mead! Try the honey one. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Place is clean, although I did not use the restroom while there. Good craft beer selection too. read more

First visit on a Sunday morning, after mass. Decent selection of cigars. Several beers on tap and soft drinks available. I was greeted as soon as I entered. Place was clean and comfortable. Has a nice patio that is partially covered. Corn hole game area and a fire ring. Nice place to spend some time enjoying a decent cigar at a reasonable price. read more

Fun place to grab a cigar. Beer options are stellar. Great selection of cigars. Super friendly staff. Cornhole boards outside and a fire pit for when its cold. read more

This is a good local place to relax and enjoy a cigar. Staff and other customers are all friendly and welcoming. When I temporarily lived in the area I would work from here, WiFi is stable and fast. They have plenty of comfortable chairs, TVs, and even turn one of the TVs over to a video game if you want. Good selection of local beers on tap, and the staff is very helpful in letting you sample them and describe them for you. Nice walk-in humidor with ample selection. I debated how to rate this place, because if you know what you're getting I have no complaints. But there are definitely things I would love to see in order for this place to be better: offer a full bar, offer food, offer a pool table, more spread out seating...all things I've had at other places I frequented in other states. I definitely recommend this place though as a good local joint to hang out and enjoy a cigar and friendly conversation. read more

Place looks really cool. Just bought a cigar and left but everyone was very friendly. Looks like a great spot in the winter to chill at. They have a selection of different craft beers and plenty of different cigars read more

This was a quick trip for us. We were in and out. People were smoking cigars and cigarettes inside the facility and the humidor was very small. It had a nice outdoor area and offered drinks which is nice if you are staying. read more

Went here on a Tuesday night around 8pm. Only a hand full of people and they all were very nice. I got they feeling they were all regulars. Very chill place with a pretty good selection in the humidor. I had a Maduro that was decent for the price point. They also had a $2 beer special. I ordered a pumpkin ale that was a little flat and warm but dor 2 bucks I won't complain. I will definitely return! read more

Small, quaint cigar shop with a bar and a huge outdoor patio with games to play. Located at the end of a strip mall, it has a small but decent humidor. The bartender was exceptionally friendly but the customers weren't terribly welcoming. read more

Love this place! My fiancé and I came here after our anniversary dinner and loved the atmosphere great selection of beer and amazing walk in humidor with a wide selection of fine cigars. Tried the Punch signature and was extremely satisfied. Relaxing watching the game in their comfy lazy boy style seats. The girls that work there were very nice and knowledgeable. We will definitely be going back and trying different beers and stogies. Also gotta swoop up one of their shirts. read more

Great cigar shop with an amazing local AZ craft beer selection 16 tap handles with a additional selection of cans and bottles in the fridge. The humidor is good size and very well stocked with cigars. The cigars are all very reasonably priced compared to other shops around the valley. They have a great indoor lounge area as well as bar seating area. They have several HD TV's throughout showing all of the games. The price for draft beers is $3.75 you can't beat that price for local AZ craft beers. Plus they are always running daily and weekly specials on beers and cigars. Huge outdoor covered patio with seating and misters during the summer months. The thing that makes this place unique is it's outdoor lighted yard with some fun games for your enjoyment corn hole boards, giant beer pong and a few others. They also have an outdoor fire pit for your cooler winter nights. This place also constantly is doing special events like monthly acoustic music nights outdoors, tap takeovers, Beer Olympics just to name a few. If your a cigar smoker, craft beer drinker or just like supporting local owned and operated businesses please check this place out you won't be disappointed. read more
