Magoo's offers some coffee and drinks for sale and has plenty of seating to enjoy your cigar. The ventilation is impressive and you can tell the owner really takes pride in this establishment!

Good Day Yelpers!!!…read more It's been a while since I last posted a review, and I figured a good way to get back to it was a post of a cigar lounge. Cigar lounges are popping up everywhere around the Tidewater area, and last week, I came across Magoos Cigar Lounge (established in 2021). Sitting at the corner of Main and Atlantic St in downtown Norfolk. Across the street, the Marriot Hotel and the Hilton are nearby, so the location is perfect for visitors. This cigar lounge is very roomy, with plenty of cozy seating spread out around the pound. Magoos have four TV monitors, mostly for sporting events and the news, and all seating is in good view of them. Plenty of stylish ashtrays are available, as are some really lovely coffee and end tables. Membership is available, and it comes with a locker. The exhaust system is top-notch, allowing for smoke to vent clearing, making for a good experience. The humidor is stocked with various premium cigars but is on the small side. I brought a nub there, and it burned a little slow, leading me to believe that the humidity was a little high in the humidor. I recommend buying any cigars there, letting them sit in your own humidor, and bringing something from home. I also thought the price was a little expensive, but there are some good smokes in there Water, coffee, energy drinks, and soda are also available. Cigar accessories, prep stations, and a pool table add a nice touch. The vibe is relaxed, and plenty of windows allow for a nice view. Open 11 am to 8 pm Monday through Thursday, 10 pm Friday and Saturday, and 6 pm Sunday. These hours can be flexible depending on special events. What does it for me here is the location and space A nice place, and I will be back. Happy Yelping.

Great atmosphere!…read more This members only venue is all the rage! Here and there, the owner may open up the venue to the public, but for the most part, once you pay your dues you are in! This venue features: a cigar lounge, full kitchen, outdoor terrace, full service bar, fresh pressed juices with or without spirits, full menu, plush seating and a dance floor. You are able to custom your event to your liking or work with an event planner to bring your vision to an ultimate High! The owner, Sunshine, is just that a ball of sunshine! Super energetic and a great people person. Below the High on High Street, is FitBar... an exercise facility and you can also order food and get fresh pressed juices made to order. This venue is a win win... a real gem in the city of Portsmouth. This venue has been in existence for about a year or maybe less, but the joint venture, FitBar is going on its second year. I was impressed by the venue the first time I checked it out back in November 2017...very classy and sophisticated. Chic and sleek if you will. If you are interested in touring this venue I suggest you reach out to the owner or better yet sign up for an all inclusive membership. You will not regret its benefits and perks. This jewel in the heart of Old Towne Portsmouth is sure to be around for the long haul. Great atmosphere, awesome vibe, amazing clientele... Parking...there is street parking directly in front of the venue and several parking garages. Happy hour takes places at least twice a week. Check out the Facebook page for more details. This place does not disappoint... customer service, on point! Have fun and enjoy life :)

Atmosphere is sooo awesome! Food is great, music is great, music is great! It's a whole experience!read more

As an Authorized Lampe Burger dealer, they have a great selection of fragrances available. I know that it seems odd that a Cigar Store has home fragrance dispensers but here we are...

We were lucky to be so close to this cigar lounge when we were staying at a local hotel…read more We were greeted by the guy working when we first walked in. There is a pretty large selection of cigars in the humidor and the prices were not bad, very competitive to other places. While in there, we were asked again if we needed any help. Once we paid for the cigars, the guy cut them since we were going to smoke them there. There were several leather type chairs around two flat screen tvs that the NFL games on, which is what we were after. The chairs have seen better days, but still comfortable to sit in. We could not believe that this place was not more crowded on a Saturday afternoon. They also have a few tables and chairs out front if you want to sit outside. it was just to hot that day for that! I wish i lived closer to this place. If we are in the area again, I will definitely go back!

My friend and I stopped by Twist last Friday to grab food and drinks after a long week. We…read moreabsolutely love Twist so we couldn't wait to go and enjoy. With it being a Friday night, we were hoping it wasn't too busy and thankfully, it wasn't. We sat at a table near the music and it was a bit loud but they did turn it down, which we thought was nice. The Gummy Bear Martini is one of my favorites so I started with that. Since they had a special menu, we wanted to try some of the new items. I ordered the Gumbo and we decided to share the Beef Empanadas. We also ordered the Bourbon Bacon Meatballs, which we love. The food was served pretty quickly. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the Gumbo! It had a peculiar taste that I couldn't quite pinpoint. The Beef Empanadas weren't bad but could've been seasoned better, I enjoyed the chutney on top. The Bourbon Bacon Meatballs weren't a hit this time, which was disappointing. We remembered them being more saucy and flavorful, but they tasted like the frozen meatballs from the store with some sauce on top. Very underwhelming. I grabbed the Bee Sting, which consisted of honey habanero moonshine, lemon juice and simple syrup and I loved it. We also ended the night with Espresso Martinis. Overall, the food just didn't hit the mark this time but the drinks were great as always. My friend even had them customize a drink for her and it turned out very good. Our server was absolutely amazing though! She was personable and made our experience very enjoyable. I'm sure we'll return because it's one of our favorite spots but I hope we have a better food experience next time.

When I later asked the original bartender whether my tab had been closed or paid, her response was, "I don't f****** know." Aside from that one individual, the atmosphere was good and the other staff member provided great service. Unfortunately, that experience seriously took away from what could have been a great spot.

Plus there is an Emerson's in Chesapeake, which is currently closer to me.
