I recently discovered the wonderful hobby of Cigars, and after looking around yelp settled on Mi…read moreFiesta for my fore into the hobby. An Indian Gentleman was working, and he was rude from the get go. Poor knowledge of the Cigar inventory, didn't try and explain the different wraps and fillers, or tasting notes. And when I said 10-15 a stick was my budget he seemed put off and that was it, he walked away and then proceeded to try and rush me out of the store shortly after because I wasn't deciding quick enough. He kept saying he had other business to attend to and me being their was preventing him from doing it(Hire another employee to handle customers?) When I decided to just use my cellphone to lookup reviews so I could look up some sticks and read some reviews to see if there was anything I'd like. This caused him to fly off the handle and he accused me of taking pictures(strange thing to say) and told me to leave. I gladly walked out of that store and am so glad they didn't get any of my money. Cigar Smokers get your sticks ANYWHERE else, too anyone else: I'd say avoid as well: Shoddy Humidor(never even saw a hygrometer), Insane Prices($17 Macanudo Cafe LOL?), hostile or non-existent customer service. Salinas has better options withing a quarter mile of the place. *******If you're a Cigar Smoker, do yourself a favor and check out Hi-life smokes in Salinas, they only sell singles as far as I know, but they're humidor is legit and always 70/70, and the selection has something for everyone. They have My Father, Oliva, Rocky Patel, Arturo Fuente, Monte Cristo, Romeo y Julietta and more. Plus all their cigars are labeled showing body/strength, flavor, and it's rating if applicable. Really helpful if you're new or just looking to try different sticks. And again, the prices are the best I've seen, and you'll never be rushed in making your selection.*********

I will most definitely be going back for whatever I may need in that department. I highly recommend this smoke shop!! Shout out to Louie YOU THE MAN!!!

I do wish they had more Padron selections like some 1926 and not just 1964. Yesterday, I smoked My Father: Le Bijou 1922. This was a bold cigar wrapped in a dark habana wrapper. The fillers and binders were from Nicaragua which is my favorite. For $26, I thought this was a good price especially since it also won #1 cigar by Cigar Aficionado in 2015. The standing tables are fine but I think it would be a great idea to also have some comfy leather sofas around for a bit of a more relaxing feel. They have a whiskey & wine bar which is a great addition. There are also a few TV screens for news and sports. If you're also looking for some awesome whiskey bottles to purchase, they have some pretty amazing selections from Angel's Envy, Larceny, to even Bardstown. I love it here and it's definitely a go-to for me whenever I'm staying in town. I'll be back again!

Hands down one of the best smoke shops in Monterey!…read more I had such a great experience at NorCal Smoke Shop. The staff was incredibly nice -- genuinely welcoming, helpful, and knowledgeable without being pushy at all. They took the time to answer my questions, made sure I found exactly what I needed, and even surprised me with a free lighter just for stopping by. It's those small touches that make a big difference. The shop is super clean and well-organized, with a great selection of products at solid prices. You can tell they care about their customers and want people to leave happy -- and I definitely did. Whether you're local or just passing through Monterey, this place is worth a visit. I'll absolutely be coming back.
