If you are an every day smoker, novice or experienced cigar aficionado, there is definitely something here that you will like. A very awesome cigar lounge. They have mixed drinks, beer and wine as well as other drinks. There was a DJ this night as well. It was a mixed crowd, but mostly African American presence. Most cigar lounge are mixed. I have a feeling though this is a Friday night hang out for the R&B, Rap and boots on the ground crew. Not sure about any other days or nights of rhe week.

The staff was not very inviting and on edge from the moment I walked in. Probably because having loud old farts like this in the store creates a bad vibe. When I asked for help, the staff barely responded. lol It seemed like they couldn't concentrate. Shocker. Seemed like a great selection of Cigar's but unfortunately, I won't be coming back due to the negative and unwelcoming environment. Make sure you have decent people in your establishments people! It's super important!! What a shame.

Walk into Grand Cathedral Cigars and you don't just enter a lounge, you step into a moment…read more A former cathedral turned cigar haven, with towering wood beams overhead, stained glass catching the light, and a layout that makes you look up... then stay awhile. It's big without feeling cold. Loud without being chaotic. The music? Think 70s and 80s, just loud enough to set the mood, but not so loud you're shouting over "Free Bird" like it's last call at a dive bar. You can actually have a conversation here. That alone is worth something. The bar is fully loaded, no shortcuts. Solid whiskey lineup, cocktails done right, and a humidor that feels like it goes on forever. Whether you know cigars or just want to look like you do, you're covered. But here's the part most places miss... The people. Staff that actually wants you there. They're dialed in, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and they treat you like a regular even if it's your first time walking through the door. And the crowd? Same vibe. Friendly, relaxed, no ego. It's not about the cigars. It's about the people. And somehow, this place gets both right

The liquor store itself, I've seen plenty of times, but the bar and lounge area outside was a very pleasant surprise! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The spaces were unexpectedly private for such a small area. They made very good use of the alley next to the liquor store building. The fire pits made for a very lovely, cozy atmosphere. I ordered a Balvenie and the wife ordered a delicious IPA. We will most definitely be returning.

From the moment we walked in the staff was very welcoming and the atmosphere was warm, and relaxing. The drinks were fantastic and well made, the best we had in the city. What really made our experience was the outstanding service, especially Maria. She was bubbly, welcoming, and genuinely kind. She made the experience top notch. Her friendly energy really elevated the entire experience. Every staff we encountered was knowledgeable and friendly, it makes you feel right at home. Between the great drinks, laid back vibe, and great music selection, it's no surprise we came back the next night. Highly recommend for all looking to relax and enjoy a night out with an elevated experience.

I'm visiting here from Southern California. Let me tell you that this is an outstanding selection…read moreof cigars! This is the absolute best selection of cigars I've ever been into in any cigar local small business cigar lounge. I have never seen such a huge selection of cigars like this back in SoCal. When you walk into the store, half of the store is a humidified selection of hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of cigars strategically organized by the owner. He also has a nice closed off area with a lot of nice over stuffed chairs to hang out and read and smoke and such. There's also a small bar area where you can enjoy some drinks if you wish. Overall, as far as the amount of cigars available, it's the best I've ever seen. If you're in the area, you have to check this place out, and you won't be disappointed. And the cigars are not just a high priced cigar collection, it's a nice balance of a selection of premium higher priced cigars, as well as affordable priced cigars around 5,6,&7 dollars as well. Fabulous place! May the Lord continue to bless you.
