    Nice lounge, friendly people, plenty of space to smoke a cigar with plenty of seating. Decent ventilation. Cutters available. Matches available. No TVs. I didn't ask about wifi. Drink menu. Food menu. All good. So why a 4-star rating and not 5? Their humidor though small is well-stocked with some nice sticks and some harder to find items like Pinks. My only issue is with how tight and cramped the humidor is. I think they could stock fewer cigars and have a little more space in there without losing quality sticks. A minor complaint but Yelp doesn't let you award half stars. On a 10-point scale I'd give it a solid 9! I will return the next time I'm in town.

    Board with lunch specials and kitchen.

    Calabash is a wonderful, locally owned cafe with cigars galore, beer, coffee, cold drinks and tasty food!!! We are not cigar smokers but we loved lunch! Delicious steak and cheese sandwich, chips and pickle! Great atmosphere, smelled good and very welcoming staff! We sat on very comfortable leather couches while the owner cooked our lunch. Next time we are going to try the steak kabob! We highly recommend!

    What a great spot to enjoy a great cigar with a nice selection of craft beer. The staff was super helpful and helped me find a cigar to enjoy in their comfortable lounge. Went back for espresso and was pleased with the great atmosphere. Being able to enjoy tobacco inside while having a draft beer is great.

    Friendly local place. Only place in Portland, ME area to smoke inside. Don't let the little "strip mall" fool you. It has a nice selection of beer and great humidor, nice area for smoking and really nice staff.

    Enjoying a hechicera and a nice local beer called Tarnation.

    Great selection and many hard to find smokes. Food was juicy and flavorful. Seemed to be a unique spot with plenty to offer.

    Great Food, Huge Portions, and Incredible Cornbread! We…read morevisited Smoked in Portland for Father's Day lunch and had a really great overall experience. The inside of the restaurant is very nice, easy to find, and they have plenty of parking, which is always a huge plus. The food was definitely the star of the show. We started with the fried mushrooms with ranch, and they were absolutely fantastic--highly recommend sharing a basket of these! For the main courses: Pulled Pork Dinners: My husband and daughter both ordered this and said it was absolutely fantastic. Wing Dinner: My son-in-law loved his wings. Quesadilla: I had the quesadilla, which was decent flavor-wise, but a bit messy to eat because most of the filling fell right out as soon as I picked it up. The highlight of the entire meal was the cornbread muffin served with honey butter. It was honestly the best cornbread I have ever tasted! The portions here are massive, making it very easy for our granddaughter to pick a little bit off everyone's plates, and we still all came home with boxes of leftovers. I love the names of the kid's meals, so creative!! The only minor downsides were that the service was just "okay" (nothing bad, just didn't really stand out), and they had live country music playing. While the music itself wasn't bad, I'm personally not a fan of the genre and found it a bit too loud for conversation. The incredible food and great atmosphere mean we will definitely be back.

    More of an intro visit to get a proverbial toe in the water and a proverbial wing (or 6) in my…read morebelly. Located on Forest Avenue well north of downtown, it's a sports bar with a long bar, several TVs, impressive sports beer signage, and a barbecue-and-wings-heavy menu that has something for everyone. A parking lot is another nice plus. I went with a half dozen wings, smoked and fried-- you can also get them breaded and fried-- with Buffalo sauce. Fairly close to the classic tangy Buffalo, with some modifications to make it just different enough. A little salty, but it works. Exteriors more firm than crispy. Interiors ranged from slightly moist to full-on juicy, depending on the piece. Blue cheese was mild and creamy. No chunks. Overall, good.

I do wish I would have returned sooner and/or may need to come back one more time before they close. Street parking nearby was easy enough to find. Walking in mid day on Saturday it wasn't too busy so after a short wait we were sat down. Which then lead to the biggest negative of our experience which was waiting for being greeted and also orders being taken. Granted our server did apologize and thank us for our patience. We started off with a cocktail I had the California Sour (had a good bourbon kick) and my wife had the Pineapple Rum Punch and enjoyed it. I enjoyed their rotating speciality pizza that was a Chicken Bacon Ranch and it was delicious top notch pizza. My wife got the Fried Chicken Vodka Parm Sandwich and the chicken was cooked to perfection! We also tried their appetizer of Scrappy Fries and it was a perfect app for our table to share and the meat scraps stood and had so much flavor to it. Every thing we had today was phenomenal and wish we had come here sooner!

    I was absolutely blown away with the experience we recently had at Noble Pizzeria & Barbecue!…read more We went in for some food with our 2 y/o nephew after being out for a walk and an afternoon on a local playground. The restaurant was very busy with pizza orders and pickups when we walked in - we were appropriately warned about the longer wait times and were okay with that. The food, each item, was delicious and our whole family enjoyed it!
