    Ok if i can walk into a store inside of South Coast Plaza and see a guy smoking a pipe inside the mall it gets 5 stars hands down. I always enjoy buying smokes there and the staff is defiantly aware of their superior knowledge of tobacco ( or snobby maybe) I half wonder if the segerstroms have a handshake deal to let them and only them smoke in the mall. If i brought a pipe into nordstrom I would be tackled by the goons. Smoke up! ok now for the boring stuff from their website The Tinder Box in Costa Mesa is the oldest established tobacconist in the County of Orange, California. The two walk-in cigar humidors allow us to offer a selection of cigars parallel to none. The store also supports an extensive array of accessories for the cigar smoker, Elie Bleu Cigar humidors, Dupont lighters, Davidoff cutters and fine Spanish cigar cases.

    I've been smoking a pipe for years without much knowledge or thought, as a break from cigars.

    I came on Friday late afternoon and enjoyed a nice Padron 7000 Maduro while sitting down on a nice…read morecozy leather seat. As I walked in, there was a small crowd mixed with young and older men who were all working on their laptops or phone. It was quiet and the only show on was some golf. The store clerk or manager was a bit of a stickler. He came into the humidor a few times to constantly tell this customer to stop smelling the cigars and even to stop touching them. I understand there should be a cigar store etiquette which definitely should be "No smelling cigars" and it's our responsibility as customers not to do those things but to again get asked NOT to touch the cigars; now that's slightly rude. It kind of gives off the type of vibe in here which is stuck up. It's a bit too quiet in here for my liking; people can literally hear your conversation. I wish there was some jazzy or Cuban salsa music in the background along with more people talking to each other but that's not what this place is. It's a quiet and intimate lounge. Their humidor has some good selections such as Padron, Davidoff, Tatuaje, Don Pepin, and even EP Carrillo. Price is fair I'd say but average price is about $20-$25 starting. I would come back again most definitely especially since it's one of the only cigar lounges around New Port.

    They have a very good cigar selection, but that's where the goodness ends at Fairoaks Cigar. Every…read morestaff member I have encountered here is horrible and their "rules" are insane. You cannot talk on the phone even with headphones on but everyone else can be screaming loud in different languages around you, and you can't take the lighters from the counter. How they approach talking to you about this though is very rude and the customers aren't very nice either. Very odd place...the whole point of a cigar lounge for me is to go and take calls...service is terrible, even when you're following all the rules it's super uncomfortable in this place

    I can't write this because my eyes are full of tears. Happy tears. I stumbled across this place…read moretoday and truly am so glad I did. Walked in to get an item and the gentlemen Andy working could just tell I was not having a great day. He was so welcoming. Literally his only concern was to get me what I needed but more importantly to get a smile out of me before walking out. I walked into this store not caring about anything in my life anymore. Moral of the story. Just being a good good human and being real, can really save sometimes life. Truly. Thank you.

    Rhodium Smoke Shop is easily one of the coolest smoke shops in Costa Mesa. The selection is great…read moreacross the board, whether you're looking for glass, wraps, tobacco products, drinks, snacks, or just browsing around. The shop is clean, organized, and has a really chill atmosphere. The biggest standout for me is their walk-in cigar humidor. It's huge and has an impressive selection, which is hard to find at most smoke shops.. worth checking out if you're into cigars. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and they're happy to answer questions without making you feel pressured to buy anything. Another big plus is that they're open late, which comes in clutch when you need to make a last-minute stop. Overall, great selection, great staff, great prices and a cool shop with something for everyone. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area.
