One of said friends mentioned this spot recently so my fiancee and I wanted to give it a try. Great place too! The atmosphere is very laid back and the staff are all extremely friendly and welcoming. You can bring your own cigars or buy them from the walk-in humidor. They even have their own signature cigar and branded cigar accessories for sale. They have a full bar and their bartender's old fashioned game thay night was absolutely on point. They have live music on occasions as well. If you enjoy cigars and good adult libations, this is a spot you need to check out.

We arrived late traveling from out of town, and tried to go to a local brewery which had closed earlier.

I hadn't been to Righteous Room in probably years after it being a regular happy hour spot when I…read moreworked downtown. Now my BFF is working a block away, so we hit it up to start off my birthday weekend and I'm definitely going to have to make it a regular stop. Happy hour deals are the most clutch here. Half off all the drinks (or at least almost all - they say there are "rare" exceptions, but I haven't encountered any. Even the specialty cocktails were half off! AND it goes until 7pm. (If your happy hour ends before 6, it's not happy.) The main bar is moody and honestly makes it kind of feel like you're transported. I believe they open the front windows during nice weather but in the winter, you're snug and cozy and the hustle and bustle of Walnut St is miles away. There is counter seating and then the other side is a long line of a booth seat with bistro tables and extra stools. The courtyard in the back is its own vibe and another transport. You're outside! No, you're inside! Kind of like Arnold's patio. There's a bar back there too. No snacks here (all the bars should have some snacks, dammit!) but it's more of a stop on the way to the rest of your night. Check out Righteous Room - it's an institution to still be open after more than a decade.

For example....we sell cigars...here is what we offer...the patio is this and that etc. We had to ask if he sells cigars which I found a bit odd. He had a small humidor and did say his humidor was being seasoned. For 1 shot of cheap bourbon and 1 cigar, it was $33. I didn't see the receipt so I'm not sure if it was the bourbon or the cigar that was on the pricey side. Lots of seating on the patio and a good amount of seating inside. I can see my husband returning with his friends but I'm not a cigar lady sooo....

We went into this expecting the experience to be an absolute shoo-in for a fabulous speakeasy vibe,…read morebeverages and experience. We arrived mid afternoon and were the only customers there, which we were just fine with. The bartender was incredibly friendly and offered a lot of advice and his opinions on several of the bourbons. The more we talked to him, it seemed that he didn't quite know his bourbons, which is fine, because you need to start somewhere, but he also didn't seem to have his cocktail skills perfected either. Unfortunately, their website did not match what was currently being offered. I was excited to try one of their seasonal cocktails butt was told it was not available as that was the previous month's availability. I decided to go with an old fashioned instead but was sorely disappointed as it just fell flat and didn't seem to be in the bartenders wheelhouse. My boyfriend tried a cocktail as well but experienced the same letdown. We had read great reviews on Goodfellows pizzaria and did place an order but will review that thru the pizzeria itself. While the bar itself has the potential to offer a fun vibe and could entice you back for more, that was not what we experienced and will probably not return any time soon.

The…read moreBourbon prices were insane, the organizers didn't announce when check in was, and apparently turning the loud music down so people could hear the person without the microphone making announcements was too difficult. Their response? Turn the music up louder. It was much better organized in 2024, I hope Wiseguys does better. People were leaving because it was too hot, too loud and too crowded. Oh yeah - the rancid beer that my friend was served was epic and apparently they (Wiseguys) were selling regular Blantons as "barrel picks" and upcharging them.

Prepare to be wowed by numerous lounges on two different levels. He has installed a powerful air handling system so you can enjoy your cigar without walking out smoky. Inside the large, walk-in humidor, you'll find your standard brands, but also a wide selection of boutique Lengths. Chet has gone to great lengths to provide an outstanding variety of cigars for absolutely every taste. He also has all the accessories you could ever want. I did not get to check out if there is a wide selection of pipe tobacco. There is plenty of parking in the front of the store and around back. The vibe is definitely very gracious, friendly, and old school. Stop in. You won't be disappointed. They have multiple memberships, lockers, or you can just come in, fire up and stick and your laptop and do some work on their high tops. There is no bar -- Yelp won't let me put Cigar Lounge as a category-- but you may be able to bring your own. Call first.

The Civil-War era building is adorned with plush leather seating and exposed brick walls, radiating an effortlessly chic vibe. The multilevel building with an open atrium allows patrons to look up and down onto the other floors and also includes outdoor patios if you prefer to be outside. Additionally there is an outdoor area on the 2nd floor as well that looks out over 6th street. But it's not just the ambiance that sets Igby's apart - it's the impeccable service and expertly crafted cocktails that truly elevate the experience. These unique drinks not only taste excellent but also are perfect for pictures. My personal favorite is the Tito's Austin Blossom which has Tito's, pineapple juice, lime juice, and agave with a sprig of rosemary on top. Each sip was full of flavor and the smell of rosemary only heightened the experience. Make sure to stop by for their happy hour Monday - Saturday from 4pm - 7pm or for a late night cocktail/date night!
