Everyone was pretty happy with their drinks. This is when the night turned. 4 of the 7 of us wanted to leave and head elsewhere, the waitress made ALL 7 of us pay even though the others wanted to stay and order more. She would not budge on this and seemed pretty nonchalant about it. .. all in all. Glad we found it but won't be back.

It's BYOB as well as being able to bring food in with you as they don't have a kitchen or bar. The couches were clean and comfy. It's not a huge spot but it's private enough for conversations to be had amongst your party. My boyfriend, brother and I went for a chill night and were met with a cover charge. The good thing about the charge was that it went towards the hookah. For 3 people it ended up being $96 total and we received 2 hookahs with choice of flavors. We had endless coal and the girl was quick to come by and change out the coals.

When some think of a cigar lounge, they think of a male centered space, sooo not the case with…read moreBelvedere, definitely women friendly. The vibe felt very comfortable, as a single woman I am always alert to the vibe of the space that I am in, I felt very relaxed and safe. I first visited Belvedere in fall 2020, I purchased a cigar and then took a seat in the lounge a little further away from where some were smoking and chatting. Within a few minutes of me sitting down, I heard some ask if I wanted anything to drink, they would gladly share, I declined but thanked them. A couple of more times during my stay a few people checked on me to make sure I was ok and to ask if I needed anything. I joined the lounge in 2021, it was one of the best decisions made since moving to South Jersey in 2020. I have had the opportunity to smoke some great cigars, attend some nice events hosted by the lounge, and meet some wonderful people. It is more than a lounge, it is the Cheers of the South Jersey cigar world, you feel welcome as soon as you walk through the doors; you feel like family. The retail space has a large selection of cigars to choose from, there is something for everyone's palate, I have leveraged the staff a time or 2 to give me some suggestions. My knowledge on cigars has increased dramatically since joining the lounge, a bonus! I highly recommend visiting and if your a local to the area joining the lounge.

I would consider Belvedere to be an upscale and classy cigar lounge from the amazing ventilation to the decor, ambience and awesome staff. I also had the opportunity in purchasing a few cigars from them.... now I am nowhere near a cigar connoisseur so it was refreshing to have Rachel assist me in selecting a cigar. She was knowledgeable, helpful and the cigars were very well priced. Moral to the story if you are looking for a place to enjoy a cigar Belvedere Cigar Loungis a MUST!

Hummingbird to Mars is one of those rare places that reminds you why small businesses matter…read more Tucked away like a true speakeasy, it has an atmosphere that immediately pulls you in: low light, intimate corners, and a sense that you've stepped into a place where craft still means something. The bartenders are the heart of the experience. They don't just pour drinks; they create them. There's real skill and artistry behind the bar, and the conversation is as good as the cocktails. You can tell they care about balance, technique, and presentation. The Walk in the Garden gin cocktail is the perfect example: bright, layered flavors, premium ingredients, and that lavender garnish that hits your nose before the first sip. The scent alone sets the stage for the drink. It's thoughtful, elegant, and exactly what a craft cocktail should be. The food holds its own right alongside the drinks. The skillet meatballs come out tender and full of flavor, the kind of dish that disappears faster than you expect. The potato skins are crisp, satisfying, and exactly what you want with a cocktail in hand. And the homemade Baileys cheesecake is the kind of dessert you plan to share but end up guarding with your fork. It's rich without being heavy, with that unmistakable homemade touch. One of the best parts of Hummingbird to Mars is the tapas-style menu. You can eat as much or as little as you want, a couple of small plates with drinks, or a full progression from appetizers to dessert. It gives you the freedom to shape the night however you want, without committing to oversized entrées or predictable bar food. And that's the bigger point: places like this don't happen by accident. They come from creativity, risk-taking, and a commitment to doing things well. If we don't support small businesses that put this level of care into their craft, we'll be left with nothing but the same chains serving the same menus everywhere you go. Hummingbird to Mars is the antidote to that; personal, inventive, and genuinely memorable. From the first sip to the last bite, it's a place that delivers an experience, not just a night out. It's worth supporting, worth returning to, and worth celebrating.

Shoutout to Christian! We went with a bigger party this time - total of 6. Would highly recommend reservations. Parking can be challenging but worth the work. You will ring a bell next to a discreet door where someone will assist you. You are greeted and walked up a very long staircase to the actual speakeasy. There's a bar, seating areas, and lounge areas as well. There's also live music. Check their socials. We ordered lots of drinks - 12 total. Every single one was absolutely delicious. Doesn't matter what you order. They do have seasonal cocktails too. You can't go wrong. Food! Okay, just order one of everything. We got meatballs (highly recommend), tuna, pizzas (shareable size). All the things were good. Again, you can see this isn't our first time here (see previous reviews). We will continue to share this place with as many people as we can as it is a superb experience! Just all around a lovely place to sit and enjoy cocktails and good. For sure meets that speakeasy vibe!
