great selection of pipe tobacco a hidden gem. very friendly and helpful staff. grab a coffee while there. read more

Great selection of cigars. Went there 2 days in a row. Staff is hit or miss as far as friendliness. Don't mind paying a cutting fee but $20 is kind of steep. Overall, a pretty good experience. read more

I wanted to try a new lounge out closer to my house so I pooped into this place. Upon entering it was friendly, inviting and great Ambience. They have a wide variety of cigars to choose from. The employee on duty knew his cigars and if he didn't remember he had a notebook he pulled out of his pocket with notes on many cigars. Everyone there was friendly and had some great conversations. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Great selection and helpful staff. Whenever I'm in the area I have to stop in. I appreciate the variety of 4-5 cigar packs they have available. Fits the bill perfectly. read more

The cigar selection is second to none. The place is very clean and organized. Branden was very knowledgeable when it comes to cigars. The mocha latte was very delicious as well. I will come here for a smoke every time I'm in town. read more

La Vita Cigars - a shelf of cigars - Tobacco Shops Near Me - St. Charles, Illinois

Living La Vita Smokah! *cue ricky martin dance* I was the lucky recipient of a $100 gift card I won from 97.1FM WDRV, so although St Charles is waaaaayyy off my finely-tuned Oak Park radar, I made the trip here on Black Friday to buy some see-gars as stocking stuffers. Their walk-in humidor is massive, one of the biggest I've been in. A dizzying selection of cigars, from inexpensive up through mid-grade smokes to the legendary Cohibas, you name it and they've likely got it. After perusing for a while, Andrew the proprietor introduced himself and gave me some recommendations. He was nice enough to grab a box of Olivia Series 'G' from the backroom, since they're my dad's favorite and the humidor was out of them. They featured a 'buy 3 get 1 free' promotion on cigars and 25% off on accessories, so I picked up a couple wicked awesome butane torch lighters as a gift for myself. La Vita has a nice lounge area and big screen TV for customers' enjoyment, as well as an assortment of teas, coffees, and snacks. Be warned, though, their storefront location is difficult to get to. It's not directly accessible from Randall Road and you have to navigate a funky 1-way road to get here, but if you consider yourself a cigar aficionado, you can't go wrong with these guys. read more

It was no surprise to see why La Vita Cigars came recommended. The walk-in humidor is huge with an outstanding selection! There's no shortage of accessories sold here. The lounge is very comfortable, with leather chairs and couches with relaxing with a nice cigar. If you prefer, there are bar chairs and counter space by the window to drink your freshly made espresso, coffee, or soda served at the lounge. The are also plenty of tables to catchup with you're friends. If your in the area, or a local, hands down this is the place to checkout. read more

Great place to relax and enjoy a cigar. Excellent coffee bar with a relaxing atmosphere. Large walk-in humidor with plenty of quality cigars. Very nice people working here too. read more

Decided to try them out since I'm kinda disgusted by other places for example people bringing smelly food in....anyways.... was surprised by selection-a lot of rare and fresh smokes. Great and knowledgeable staff to help you find something you like or if you have questions. Coffee is one of the best I've had in recent times. Very chill place. Will definitely return read more

Few can compare to the Helpful Staff, Quality of products, and Rich full atmosphere La Vita provides. When you walk in, you are greeted by warm, friendly faces that are pleased to help you with your cigar experience. Every staff member can teach you a thing or two about experiencing cigars. The environment couldn't get any better with comfortable couches, tables and chairs to sit back and relax. Often, the customers are more then happy to share stories and cigars with you. This is paradise at it's best as it is BYOB, which means, whether it be Wine, Beer, or Fine Liquor, there's always a party at La vita. read more

La Vita is one of the nicest cigar shops around. Great atmosphere for a smoke and watching the game. I will miss them now that my move to Dallas is complete read more

I was passing through the area and found this "tucked away" gem of an establishment along Randal Rd. I truly liked this cigar shop and enjoyed the attention I received from the owner. A knowledgeable owner (not pushy) with very good insight into his assorment and good recommendations. A spacious humidor stocked with the mid-range to upper-range selection of cigars (including the NEW Don Pepin inspired brand)! A place to smoke in a relaxed atmosphere. I liked the touch of italian espresso (Lavazza)! A decent selection of humidors and cigar essentials (although the merchandising and variety can be improved). My visit was quite pleasant; filled with good conversation, good recommendations and a very good selection. I will definately patronize this business again! read more

Look no further than this place for cigars! They have an enormous humidor with anything your heart desires! Comfy couches to sit and smoke and a large TV for game watching. There's FREE wifi and plenty of tables to sit, smoke, and study, if you so choose. The people here are very friendly also. Drew was great and made me a wonderful coffee. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because their sign out front is a little misleading. It says fine cigars, coffee and wine. I saw many many cigars, their coffee is Lavazza, and while good, was the only option, and I didn't see a wine bottle in the store. Perhaps I didn't look in the right places, but either way these two things were hidden. GREAT for cigars, and to hang out, they even allow BYOB so I cam imagine the parties! However, if you're looking for fine wines, or specialty coffee, head elsewhere. I'll definitely be coming back for my cigars though! What a collection! read more

I've been in this cigar shop five times. I actually sat and smoked up on their couches a few of those times. BYOB is awesome! Me and a buddy stopped in during one of their cigar events and we didn't know anyone. However, within a few minutes we got to talking with other people and felt welcomed... That's a nice experience to have because cigar shops tend to have a close-knit group of clientele. They have a nice, fully stocked humidor with cigars ranging in price. They also have some cool beverages or you can order an espresso! If you find yourself in the area and have time for a smoke, stop in, or buy a few and hit the road. read more

Solid cigar selection. Helpful staff. Comfortable seating. Lots of guys there getting work done on free WiFi. Also, a nice place to sit with the guys, sip on an adult beverage (you can bring your own), shoot the breeze or watch a game on the big screen. read more

I've been coming to La Vita for about 8 years now, and as much as the people who work behind the counter may come and go, the atmosphere and cordiality remains the same. Their selection of cigars is one of the best in Illinois, and they use some of the best coffee for their creations of Java goodness. Rarely will you find a place more relaxing and enjoyable than La Vita. Bring your own beer, wine or spirits, and enjoy a great cigar with great company. read more

See all

La Vita has a great, large humidor and helpful staff that are there if you need them but let you be if you don't. Which is a HUGE bonus in my opinion, I hate being followed around by an employee and they don't do that here. Lounge is okay, which is why I gave it a 3 instead of a 4 (I wish we could do half stars because I would give it 3.5). They have a nice couch and 2 love seats next to it, but the rest of the place is tables and a bar by the window. Not the most comfortable but they do have a good amount of space. If you're looking to hang out and smoke while you work, be forewarned. Only one table and the bar seating by the window have power. If someone else is sitting at the bar top it gets a little tight. So load up your battery before you come in. WiFi is free and speedy. All in all, a good cigar shop with a large humidor and some seating. I will definitely be back, it just might not be my first stop if I have work to do while I smoke. read more

Really nice folks. Plenty of comfortable seating, great coffee selection and one of the best cigar inventories I've come across in some time. read more

My favorite place to enjoy a fine cigar and sip an adult beverage (byob) or one of their great coffees. I was so glad to find this place and it's close to home. Great selection and great staff. Going there now as a matter of fact! read more

Bought my boyfriend some cigars from here. Loved the service!!!! Cute store and very helpful. read more

A very nice place that a friend introduced me to the other night. Had a great italian dinner and my buddy suggested going to this place. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The place wasn't crowded but wasn't empty. The cigar selection was huge with something for the total newbie and the aficianado. I didn't try the food/snacks and only had a cup of decaf (it was good). It was a relaxing time and i enjoyed the cigar and the conversation. I will return! read more

I was visiting St Charles with my wife and college age sons. We always treat ourselves to a relaxing "burnt offering" while vacationing. We didn't arrive in town until after 9 PM. La Vita's hours allowed us to visit and to make our selection. My eldest was going to a friend's bachelor party later that weekend and really didn't know what cigars others might enjoy. La Vita's employee that evening walked him through the purchase of several cigars. The selection were varied and the prices were reasonable. The service was excellent. We went back as our vacation ended and I picked up a handful of their house Robustos. The same young man went out of his way to ensure my purchase would remain fresh for several days. read more

Great place for smokes. Deep selection. Stay for a smoke, what the big screen and have some coffee. You looking for cigars?????......they have it. Enjoy read more

Hands down best cigar lounge in west burbs. Very friendly staff. Good selection, humidor well kept, sticks always burn great and taste great. I had a cigar blow up on me once and the very nice girl at the counter took care of it without hesitation, great service. Nice coffee bar inside and a cooler with water, pop, etc. I even saw some snacks and muffins to go with your morning smoke. Prices are reasonable. Lounge is comfortable and you can bring your own liquor if you wanted to. Patrons have been a friendly when I've been in. My only ask would be for a few more lower priced selections ($5ish) BUT their house brand has been solid and is only about $6.50. read more

This place has everything - espresso, cigars... The staff is great. I feel sorry for them for the location they chose. There is no access to Randall Road, the place doesn't look that inviting from the road and it's so easy to just decide to keep on going north if you miss the entrance on Dean Street. I wish them luck and a better location! read more

What a nice little gem to find in Geneva. I took my son for his 21st birthday for his first cigar. We were able to bring our own. As it is BYOB and decided on a few good cigars in their walk-in humidor. They have tables and chairs as well as leather couches and recliners with a large screen TV to enjoy a game with your group or with the people that have gathered in their to enjoy a fine cigar. We had a great time during a recent playoff football game with about 10 other people. It is a great place to gather and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and will guide you if you are unsure of what you are looking for in the way of a good cigar or pipe tobacco. They do have a small snack area and have some soda or water available for purchase. Definitely will be back but I suggest that you buy your cigars once you get there because there is a substantial cigar lighting fee 4 cigars brought in from the outside but besides you would want to keep places like this in business anyway. I don't know too many of these cigar bars in the Fox Valley so this one is definitely a great place to check out read more

Overall I had a good experience on my first trip to this lounge. They had a good selection and prices were fair for a brick & mortar shop. The only "negatives" is no one offered suggestions or asked if I wanted help. Also, seating was limited and somewhat cramped. read more

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. If you pay attention to their calendar/schedule, or pop in on a regular basis, you can take advantage of promos on great cigars! Always have a good conversation with someone when I'm there. BYOB a plus. read more

Great variety of cigars with reasonable prices! They even sell some snacks and variety of coffees.

Great selection. Been there twice and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Ventilation is a huge plus.

are you kidding me this is like the ultimate guys hang out specially if you like cigars . Oh yeah its byob too.
