regulars enjoying a cigar or three.
Terry J.

Absolutely love this place. I travel on business quite a bit and try to find a suitable cigar lounge in each city that I visit. Smokers Castle is far-and-away the best place to sit back and light up in Ventura. The "regulars" are eager to introduce themselves and make you feel at home: a huge plus! Several big leather sofas and rockers in which to sit back and chat with the locals. If I am in Ventura, I visit this place. Period.

Great Great Great place! The best selection of cigars anywhere around! Bob and Scott are the best. Their Friday night "feature of the Week" and raffle are so much fun. They have 3 lounge areas, all of which are very nice!

New Humidor so I left them wrapped.

Not only a great place to buy a cigar, there's a great atmosphere to relax and enjoy your smoke.

I usually stop by here once a week to pick up a few cigars. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Great service!

Do they sell cigarettes too?

I think it's only cigars and pipes

Ventiki was totally solid! Very decent drinks and sushi, and the prices are fair…read more Service is...apathetic. As a side note, please work on extending your sunshades to go the full length of your outdoor patio. The sun is pretty brutal and the shades stop short of the bench seating by a good 24".

Disappointing experience! We arrived on a Sunday around 1pm and were seated quickly. However, we…read morewaited over 30 minutes to receive our first round of drinks, no food ordered yet. We were ready to walk out, but our drinks finally arrived. I suggested we ask for the check sooner than later, considering how long it took to get our drinks. (Others who arrived after us did not seem to have to wait as long as we did.) Moments later, the vibe completely turned around when the bartender blew a conch shell to award a patron a Ventiki fez, accomplished after drinking all 60 cocktails on their in-house passport. That energy really helped recapture any aloha we felt upon arriving and we ended up staying for hours and chatting with staff. The place redeemed itself. We promised to return with some friends shortly who were driving through Ventura. We stepped out to grab coffee while waiting for our friends to arrive. We were excited to show them this place. When our friends got there around 4pm, they received an incredibly cold greeting at the entrance. They sent us a text and we told them we were a block away having just picked up a coffee and heading their way. When we all arrived together, a bouncer was at the front stand, boorish and inhospitable... his immediate attitude was downright insulting. (He wasn't around when we were there earlier.) He had previously refused to seat our friends at a table for four--even though we were just a block away--demanded we throw away our coffees, and asked us for ID. (My husband and I are in our late 50s/early 60s, and friends late 40s.) We literally had just been there for a couple hours and spent a good amount of money. Sure, I understand places have policies, but this attitude was COMPLETELY different than when we were there earlier. The bouncer was a self-important jerk about the whole thing. We went from giving them a second chance after they rekindled the aloha spirit to being completely turned off by the bouncer's egomaniacal attitude. Again, 4pm Sunday, no line or anything. Not some nightclub. Utterly unnecessary brute at the front. Rude and completely uninviting customer service. We ended up going down the street to a local brewpub that welcomed us, no attitude, no carding, and they didn't bat an eye at our coffee cups. AND when we parted ways with our friends, they told us they swung by Ventiki to talk to the manager. The manager told them she supports her bouncer and was unapologetic. If there was a society for tiki lounges with a membership card, this place should have their card revoked. They are not worthy. Tearing up the fez passport I started and will never set foot in there again.

The Livery has become one of my favorite places to stop for a cocktail downtown…read more What sets it apart is its focus on local and regional producers. The cocktail menu features ingredients from Ventura Spirits, Mario's Hard Espresso, local breweries, and other Central Coast makers, giving the drinks a real sense of place. I've especially enjoyed their cocktail program because it feels creative without being pretentious. I also love the concept. It's more than just a bar--you can enjoy a drink while browsing a thoughtfully curated collection of local goods, making it a fun place to bring friends or visitors from out of town. I haven't tried the food yet, so I can't speak to the bar menu, but based on the drinks, atmosphere, and commitment to highlighting local products, The Livery is a unique addition to downtown Ventura and a spot I find myself returning to.

I absolutely love this place! The Livery is located next door and part of Rumfish y Vino, where you…read morecan sip on wine or a cocktail and shop the local vendor displays. They range from clothing, hats, housewares, candles, jewelry, and more! The atmosphere is beautiful, spacious yet cozy and inviting. I especially love that they have a separate room exclusively for wine tasting. I'm definitely interested in checking it out next time. We didn't order food because we had already eaten, but the Rosarita margarita was a nice refreshing cocktail. I also purchased a non-toxic pumpkin spice candle. It smelled heavenly burning on display and I couldn't pass it up. It's a subtle smell of pumpkin spice and fall. I love it! I can't wait to come back and purchase some of the beautiful glassware. I'll take more pictures of the shopping area next time.
