Prices are steep. Selection is Great. If you dont care about $$Then go there. I had a Padron 1926 torpedo and a bottle of Coke. $53 dollars. Same cigar in Reno,NV is $32 dollars per stick.That would leave me $21 dollars for a coke. ? Its up to you.

Came in to get out of the heat and for the spouse to enjoy a cigar. They graciously made me a cup of black coffee off their personal Keurig. We sat comfortably and enjoyed some pours of whisky and tequila. Spouse enjoyed a cigar. Pleasant experience with knowledgeable bar tender. Happy with selection! Pleased we walked up onto this establishment.

This place is IT!!!!.. for cigar lovers and to enjoy a nice drink. The vibe is right... the staff is amazing! They have tvs to watch sports, the seating is comfy and very sexy. They have a nice selection of cigars as well. My hubby and I had a great time here while in NOLA.. we went back and the place was lit!

Really cool place with a beautiful interior, fantastic bar selection and cool outside seating area. Service was a little slow but they were busy and working hard.Cigar selection was fairly limited but we found something we liked and had a wonderful time.

Love this place. Visited here last time I came to New Orleans. This time it was during the day so there was more people. If you like whiskey and cigars, this is your spot. I sat in the back room until the heat died down, and then moved outside. Servers bring your drinks to you. Ill be back!

We love coming here whenever were in the N.O.! This place definitely has a vibe! Its a really chill atmosphere. The music playlists are the best Ive heard at a cigar bar. This place is the essence of cigar lounge royalty! Very handsome (in the words of my hubby). Very fitting for a night out with the fellas, or definitely if u wanna hang with ur lady, its classy enough for her as well! The staff is awesome, always so welcoming and accommodating. A must visit spot! And they even have outdoor seating!

Super cool spot. Former bath house turned cigar lounge with a lot of attention to detail. Great service, and much care was taken making the mojitos and we had plenty of them. Smaller humidor but quality selection. Enjoyed ourselves so much we went back multiple times during our trip. If you like cigars and/or great drinks, you wont be disappointed.

Our waitress, Casey I believe her name was, was wonderful. Quick yo refill drinks, super friendly and professional.The atmosphere was awesome. Looks like an old bathhouse of some sort. Lots of comfortable chairs and nooks, gaming tables, decent cigar selection at reasonable prices for a tourist location.If you like cigars I highly recommend!Drinks were strong and the BBQ was delicious!

I had a ball here. This was my first time in New Orleans. I googled cigar bars and this was the first place that popped up. I went and was greeted by Amber who was amazing. She took care of me the entirety of my stay. I will definitely return on my next trip to the NO!

Bartender and cigar host are awesome. The atmosphere is top notch. The very back is an old bath house. Probably one of the best cigar whiskey bars I have attended. If I lived in the area I would be here 2 times a week. A must try for cigar and whiskey drinkers.

Went to NOLA for the Lions game. Had to stop at my favorite place from years past to see if it was still great. Happy to report that this is still an awesome bar. First off, the bottle selection of bourbon is great for the French Quarter. Their ice game is great. If you’re looking for a bourbon drink then this is your place. They have a ton of scotch too, friends of mine were impressed at least (scotch isn’t really my thing). Second, the atmosphere of this place is so chill. Great place to chat with friends and catch a game. Not a bad view in the place. Third, they have high quality cigars that are excellent. The owner Andrew helped me pick out some good ones. They were probably the best I’ve ever had. Not joking. Fourth, tried the pork tacos from their restaurant Pig Out and they were delightful! I’m telling you, if you want something different than the chaotic norm of Bourbon Street, then this is a place you should visit.

We were here in July for our honeymoon. Came for the cigars but stayed for Matthew’s mojitos (and literally anything else he offered up). And came back again. Super knowledgeable bartender and a great place to sit and chat and get out of the rain. Also a great whiskey selection to boot. If anybody barely even mentions going to New Orleans, this is the place we recommend they visit for a drink!

Great sidewalk/cafe/cigar lounge. Day-dream, people watch, hang with pals. Food from next door is good. Small walk-in humidor. Moderate Selection, fairly priced for a lounge. I. E. Slight mark up vs. Online prices. People shouldnt expect lounges to be price competitors. Full service bar. Staff all very nice. Cigar tender gave excellent advice upon request. P. S. Shake from milkshake shop around the corner. 😎

I love the look and feel of the 300 year old former bath house! Great lounge and bar off the main strip. With public parking across the street, this will be my new hang out to watch the game when in town if not at the stadium! The personal lockers with humidors for your own cigars is a real nice classy touch.They also have a great happy hour with wing specials. Come, stay and chill

Review №32

One of the nicest cigar lounges Ive been to. This older building used to be a bath house for men, they filled in the tub and built on top.of the building, so they no longer have the sun roof but the old fashioned feel is still there. The food isnt too bad. The brisket was a pretty thick cut but it was cooked just right (probably a cook who didnt know how to cut brisket properly). The mac and cheese, I could do without, and the baked beans were bland ( could definitely use more seasoning. However the fries we immaculate! Lol

We had an amazing Baecation 2023 in NOLA this weekend and dined at several amazing spots. Fourth, was Cuban Creations Cigar Bar. We ordered: McCallan 12, Bombu, and an El Septimo cigar. Everything was to our satisfaction. The drinks. The texture of my cigar was perfect. Yes, humidor! The atmosphere was chill. Everyone had a vibe. Our humidor-tender was knowledgeable of his stock. We absolutely enjoyed ourselves!

Review №35

Almost walked past their front door. I stepped in off the street to see a small glass & white bar running along the length of the left wall with about 10 barstools. It was like walking into a small fine dining restaurant. The bar was well done and top shelf; with countless topshelf brands of spirits. I then looked for the humidor, but was dissapointed it was a couple of cabinet humidors on the right wall, almost hidden, due to poor lighting-so, no walk in, which I prefer. [UPDATE: 11/2021 Ive been informed they finally installed a walk-in humidor. No photos yet, but great to hear.]It did make up for the lack of a diverse and well cared for premium cigar selection by a tremendous lounge area. It was spacious, comfortable, plush and decedant. I felt like I was in the VIP room in downtown Manhattan nightclubs. A truly great experience. But, I could not get over the limited selection of premium cigars and how they came across as an afterthought. Also, I think having a full bar along with a cigar lounge is amazing. I was again turned off by the immensely overpriced limited cigar offerings (almost double the wholesale price). So, if I am ever able to light cigars with $100 bills and entertain big wigs or wish to impress business clients, this is the place with upscale eye candy decor to spare, but Im not that guy and I havent seen that many high rollers who could pay the freight once, if not regularly. Noticed, that location equates to prices in the Big Easy, you pay the highest premium in the French Quarter. So, if youre a high roller and price is no object, looking to impress, and live the high life, this is your spot.

The selection of cigars was small but the atmosphere was huge.They have a very large smoking lounge with TVs and game boards.Also a bar if you wish to pair your stick with your favorite libations.What also made the atmosphere was the great selection of music.They do allow you to bring your own cigars which we did and then we enjoyed their fine service with some drinks.Safe Travels

Celebrating our sons 30th birthday at Cuban Creations Cigar Bar!!! If you enjoy a quality drink and a quality cigar, then CCCB is the place for you. The have a extensive selection of cigars and crafted beverages. Weve been to a couple of the cigar bars in NOLA and CCCB has the comfortable and relaxing environment. Their staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful...especially for those of us who are novices. Oh...be sure to ask about the history of the building...its pretty cool!!

This is hands down, the BEST CIGAR BAR in NEW ORLEANS!!!! The atmosphere, workers, cigar selection, and drink options are second to none. My brother and I hung out this weekend for the first time and had several old fashions, a couple of in-house mixed Bloody Marys, and some nicely cooked cigars. If youre in the French Quarter, stop by, have a smoke and a Bloody Mary, say hi to Ashley and tell them Texas Herb sent you!!! You wont regret it

Anytime I travel to a new city I love going to a cigar lounge and picked this one out of luck! This is honestly probably the best lounge I’ve ever been to! They had an okay selection, but honestly the atmosphere and the full service bar here is amazing! Sat here with my girl for over an hour enjoying the place, having a couple drinks and smoking a cigar while watching Monday night football! If you want a cigar in Nola there’s not a better place to be, and again my favorite I’ve been to in the country!

Review №56

I always seem to find my way back here on visits to NOLA. They have a small and well cultivated selection of reasonably priced cigars in a 4x8 humidor by the entrance.Purchase your cigar with some guidance and take it to the bar, leather seats or covered seating outside. They will take your order from the chairs as you watch games on the huge TVs, or you can order at the bar and seat yourself.No drink menu, so talk to the bartender about what you like or order a standard from the wait staff. Cocktails can be pricey. I recall paying $20 for a Sazerac but my Rittenhouse old fashioned was only about $13.Great place to grab a drink with your cigar aficionado friends. (Person holding cigar in my photo is another patron)

It is one of the best Cigar bars I have experienced. Cigars are well priced and the bar is set up into 4 areas out door area in front, standard bar when you enter, executive lounge style in the middle, and casual (with an exclusive feel in back) very impressive, met some great people during my visit, quite impressive, I will be back.

Cigar prices are outrageous. Bring your own if youre a real smoker. Buy drinks, smoke your own. Cool atmosphere. Dark. Bartender made me uncomfortable at first. Walked in the humidor- she came in nervous like we were about to or trying to steal. Said we werent supposed to be in there without an employee. Thats not posted anywhere. She began hollering for help. Weird.

Review №73

I went into this place expecting to pick up a cheap cigar and continue my walk around the quarter. Boy was I surprised!Monte helped me pick out a good cigar from the humidor, cut it and stuffed a wire down the middle to get the best smoke/flavor from the cigar, checked me out and sent me on my way. I lit it at the bar and got curious to check out the back room as it used to be a bath house. Upon entering the back room I was blown away with how comfortable the seating and TV set up was and decided to kick my feet up and stay. There are ash trays all over the place in the back room and it felt quite private. Moreover, there were fans constantly moving the air so it was easy to breathe. The basketball game was on both of the tvs as well, which was nice. A bartender later came over and delivered a beer to me. I felt like I died and went to heaven all for under $30 all in! This place rules.

First I will have to say I am not a cigar person, I dont even like the smell, but this bar wasnt overpowered by the cigar smell or smoke. It had a very chill vibe and several areas to enjoy from couches to tables to the makeshift patio outside. Customer service was absolutely phenomenal! We walked into the bar and immediately into the cigar area where the gentleman was extremely knowledgeable about all the cigars and offered recommendations to each individual and gave information about everything. While we were there, the manager, the bartender and the cigar aficionado came and talked to us several times and make sure we were enjoying ourselves and see if we needed anything. They were all so personable and helpful. The bartender was also an incredible rolodex of cocktails and made amazing drinks based on your liquor of choice. 10/10 highly recommend.

Upon arriving to town, we started exploring and my husband developed a severe nose bleed. I desperately was looking for a bathroom and saw this bar. I went in and the bartender Matthew was a lifesaver. He welcomed us in, and gave us towels, ice, water and whatever we needed until we were able to get it under control. Later in the afternoon we returned and had a few drinks and he was just as awesome. Recommend it to anyone as its an awesome place even if you arent looking for a cigar...just top notch customer service.

Most of these cigars are highly overpriced. The staff will tell you its because youre in the French Quarter.

Location, Great! Service, Great! This place is a great cigar bar. The cigars are a bit overpriced and so are the drinks but the ambiance is far from subpar.

Great place for cigars and drinks. Bartenders are very friendly and make great drinks. You can get great BBQ from next door at Pig Out and bring it in or sit outside on the nice couches and chairs.

Nice classy cigar bar with plenty of space. Very comfortable lounge with top notch service. If you love cigars and are in the French Quarter, don’t hesitate to come here. If you can get Ashley as your server your in luck.

This is a wonderful lil jewel in the heart of the French Quarter. The atmosphere is inviting and the customer service top notch. They also have very good pizza and hot wings. I was along with my husband and some friends who wanted to smoke. They don’t have a large selection, but they do have quality. It was like sitting in your living room, having a smoke and sharing pizza with friends. Check them out even if you are not a partaker of cigars. The vibe, music and drinks will make it worth your while to sit a spell. We will be back SOON!

This cigar bar is great!!!! My family took me here to have a fun birthday. The atmosphere was cool, the people were friendly, the staff was warm with hospitality. The music was on point and the cigars and liquor kept coming. Thank you for showing me a great time in NOLA. I truly appreciate it.

Had a work gathering here of about 25 people. Great service and friendly staff. Location just minutes of a walk from Bourbon and great location in the French quarter . The owner made scheduling the back room very easy and painless. Would highly recommend this place.

The Owner was welcoming and personable. The atmosphere was elegant and comfortable. The female staff members were beautiful, helpful and always check to see if anything was needed. The cigars are high quality. The drinks were perfect. Pricing is reasonable. Ill be sure to stop in every time I come to New Orleans.

Review №143

My friends and I absolutely love this place. This same place was another cigar lounge before becoming Cuban Crafters, the new owners did a great job and really turned this place into a wonderful relaxing lounge with great ventilation so you’re not smothered in smoke. The cigar selection is superb and unlike the last owner they have great humidors. They also have the best liquor selection!! I love the Don Julio 1942 but they have a great scotch and bourbon selection for those guys that like a stiff cocktail with their cigars. If you’re a yelp-er like myself you’ll find great deals and promotions on the app.

🙅🏿‍♂️ the surprise is in the smoking lounge in the back. The young man that renovated the place gave me a walk through of the place. The House cigars are phenomenal. The Male personal line is sold here (try one). The bar is well stocked. Sit for a spell and relax. There are always great people stopping in. Definitely recommend

I had such an amazing time here. My fiancee and I came in with very little knowledge about cigars and the woman who worked here Ramona I believe was so kind and patient with us. I am sure most of our questions seemed silly but she didnt mind them at all. She helped us pick out a few to try and they were just as she described. I cant wait to come back and get enough for the wedding parties. The service was amazing I love happy helpful people. Great job on choosing your employees I couldnt have made a choice without her. See you again soon

Very Nice and chill spot . the Bartender was spot on with recommending the pairings of a Karl Malone Cigar I picked with a Sazerac. The only downfall was my short time spent because I had to catch a flight back home. Will stop in again when in Nawlins

Cigar club was a very nice set up and atmosphere. After $258 dollars later, the waitress said we were rude to her. My sister asked her not to sweep around her outside and the waitress replied, if you werent throwing your cigarettes on the ground, I wouldnt have to! My sisterdoesnt and never smoked! The waitress also said we were rude to her. We were with our other sisters that left earlier and we found out later they had words with the waitress earlier. So I guess thats when the attitude started. We tried to talk to the owner who refused to listen and said he believes his employee. The waitress told my sister to just leave when she explained to her that she wasnt smoking. Also the owner told us to get out and shut the doors on us. Another lady that we met at that place was trying to explain as he told us to get out and away from his place of business and then slammed the doors in our face. The woman we met, opened the doors to tell him there is a patron trying to come in. He slammed the doors on her again! I own a business and have never treated customers like that! Even the other waitresses and waiter said they didnt have a problem with us. So much for the beautiful atmosphere! Very rude waitress, owner/manager, whomever he was. They should roll the tapes back to August 14th in the evening and the cameras will tell all! Tbh, I think we were stereotyped and judged by the color of our skin. Oh well, you cant treat Gods children like that with no repercussions! Karma has no name!

Cuban Crafters Cigar Lounge is a great place to go to when you visit New Orleans. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly and very welcoming. The staff was very helpful and took good care of me and my friends on a busy Saturday evening. A place off the beaten path with a nice atmosphere. I would recommend this place to anyone who visits New Orleans.

Atmosphere is good. Im not a cigar smoker, but you have to know youll come out smelling like cigar smoke (even if you dont smoke) because this is a smoking establishment. The prices are overly inflated because its in the French Quarter, so I wouldnt take anyone there due to pricing alone, but if it were an event that I was invited to, like the one that brought me there, then Id show up with cash so I know how much Im spending. On this trip I used my Amex and set a tab thinking me and my girlfriend would drink more. I ordered two Casamigos on the rocks and paid almost $30. My girlfriend paid for 2 or 3 appetizers and it was almost $50. The customer service is great! I really liked the male bartender, I cant remember his name, but I know his face and since my friends sister wants to go there for her birthday next month, Ill look for him again. He didnt over pour, which is almost customary in New Orleans, but he was funny, professional and easy on the eyes.

This is my favorite spot in all of New Orleans. After having lunch or dinner somewhere, I come here. This place is so laid back and devoid of the young obnoxious crowd that walk up and down on Bourbon. I have met the owner and he is one of the most down to earth people Ive ever met, the manager is professional and courteous, other than the fact that they sometimes hire unqualified bartenders, this place if a perfect place for cigar smokers to visit. The best bartender is Turay, Ask for him if you ever visit and tell them Joe sent ya, you wont be disappointed. He is a delightful bartender and will keep you entertained. If you are in New Orleans and plan to visit Bourbon street, take a detour here and whip out your stogie and order yourself a fine single malt scotch, bourbon or congnac, they have an excellent selection of all. Dont smoke cigars? come in and have a drink anyways.

Our bartender was absolutely wasted on a Tuesday afternoon. I ordered a gin and tonic, and got gin and seltzer. The gin I ordered was tanquerey, but got charged for Hendricks ($15). Hubby had a Dixie beer. Wish I had done that. The first check we got was for $66. Um, no. It took her another 10 minutes (with help) to get us our check, and when I questioned the total, she just shrugged. No arguing with a wasted person. She talked and talked to us while we were there.. kind of funny but at some point as a bartender you know when to back off. Not her. I hope management gets a handle on this one before she drives everyone away!

Review №196

Its worth noting that Cuban Crafters is the only cigar bar in the French Quarter with a full liquor licence, so if you like a rum and a few beers with your cigar, this is the place to go.The staff is very friendly and have a vast knowledge about cigars. They have a great selection of alcohol and cigars you can buy while there (check out the housebrand too), but you are welcome to bring your own cigars too.They have a few big screen TVs for the sportsfans, but mostly its a classy, calm cigar bar with nice furniture and a good atmosphere.It says on google that it closes at 23:00, but it really closes at midnight and if there is a good crowd, they might stay open longer.Me and my wife spent a week in New Orleans this summer with the intention of checking out different cigar bars, but we found ourselves coming to Cuban Crafters every evening and enjoyed ourselves.Kevin was our main bartender during the week and did a brilliant job! We also got to meet one of the owners who had a vast knowledge of, and passion, for cigars.I only smoke Cubans, so brought my own, but ended up trying at least 4 different house brands there and they were all good.If you like cigars, this is the place to go in New Orleans
