You've got all your staples - snacks and soft drinks, mags (including ones out of reach for the kiddies), smokes of all sorts and of course - lottery tickets. Yep that's main seller here and I have even hit a couple times here off a couple scratch offs. The guys in here are friendly enough but the hours aren't that of a say NY bodega and the selections are pretty limited for a bodega if you are coming for snacks and drinks. It's enough but when compared to what you'd expect from one along with your lottery tickets you'll be let down that said I'm glad it's stuck around a a staple in the neighborhood in the face of 7-11 and S.

I've been here a couple times. My experience wasn't bad, but when I walk into a smoke shop, I…read moredon't want to be observed like a tiny little asian woman is going to chop everyone in the place. Anyway, the first time I walked in, I didn't feel very welcome because the service wasn't very friendly. I was not greeted at all, and the owner and workers just stood there and stared. I just wanted some cigarettes, if they wanted my ID, I wouldn't have a problem showing it. The 2nd and 3rd time I visited, it was a little better because one of the workers recognized me so I at least got a "hey, how're ya?" **In other words, I'd appreciate it if the service was better here.** Moving on, I found this place because I attend Seton Hall university, which is only a mile up the street on South Orange. A friend of mine introduced Davidoff cigarettes to me and I came down to this little shop to find it. Great enough, they actually had some, although very pricey at $11 a pack. Apparently, I bought the last two packs and I'm not sure if they restocked.

There are very few places left in the world where you can smoke cigars indoors while eating lunch…read more The food here is very mediocre ... and expensive! You do get a free cigar (which is actually a pretty nice, brand name stick in most cases) with your meal, which I am sure goes with the cost. Before the world went utterly insane with inflation ... It used to be one of the best deals ever. The food was $12.95 plus the free cigar! Now, it's more like $23 per sandwich. Owch. The best value was the cheese plate, which at $15 was huge and included fruit. Now, that cheese platter is actually smaller than it used to be and costs $44! The decor is pretty cool ... dark and moody ... but there are a couple TVs with sports playing and high ceilings. The air purification makes it smell a lot less like cigar smoke than it used to ... but know that whatever clothes you wear here will likely need a dry cleaning after. The waitresses have been here forever ... and there are a lot of regulars. Imagine what a guy would look like that would want to smoke a cigar while eating and that's exactly what you will find here as a customer. Fake Sopramos accent ... beefy ... loud ... gold chain ... It's a 'bro crowd' for sure with some flashy investment banker types mixed in. Lots of Hummers and G-Wagons in the parking lot. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves cigars. The food is edible and in some cases even good. But nothing amazing. I've had the corned beef sandwich ... don't expect NYC deli quality ... the flatbread (Trader Joe's is just as good) ... and the Cuban sandwich. All okay. The Cuban left me hungry. You can also eat at the bar and peruse their extensive whiskey and beer menu. The drinks are pricey, so a sandwich, a beer ... and I guess you could count the free cigar ... come to around $40, after tip.

I've never been to this Total Wine before, and it honestly felt like heaven for anyone who enjoys a good drink. Anything you want, they have it. I wandered around for a bit (the selection is that good) and finally asked for assistance. The associate was super helpful and directed me right to it. Checkout was quick and easy, and I learned they have a rewards program you can sign up for using your phone number. This location is conveniently tucked inside the Essex Green Shopping Plaza, right across from ShopRite. Whether you're looking for wine, rum, or anything in between, I'm pretty sure they have it here.

Thankfully the Total Wine app saved the day, so it was not a wasted trip because I already knew what I was looking for was in stock. That aside, no matter how sporadic it is, whenever I go here it is extremely difficult to find an associate for help or questions, there's almost always only one register open for checkout, and these things just dampen the experience for me every time. Pro-tip, they share a big parking lot with other stores, restaurants, and ShopRite so be cautious as you maneuver through it. It's not unlikely for drivers to act as if it's a random Nascar racetrack.
