I used to go to ultimate cigar in villa park,but the owner started to treat us like jackoffs.I been hanging at humidor in westmont good cigars and good lounge.Ultimate had a great lounge and nobody was ever there but his cigars were horrible.Ten of us use to hang there and spend a lot of money, now we band it.Cuban Pete and jbott21 use to be regulars also
I don't know of any decent ones here in Utah. Their are a couple shops of the same franchise within 30 min of me, but they are more of a headshop that sells a few cigars. They have one cabinet humi, and a horrible selection.
If any brothers know of any decent b&m's in Utah let me know.

The Smoke Ring in Webster, TX is my is my home shop. Great selection, knowledgeable staff and they sell everything at MSRP no matter what. No real sales to speak of though.
I still try to buy most of my sticks from them, sort of as a sitting fee. They have a great lounge.

If I have time to drive out, I head to Matador Cigar Shop in Roslyn, NY. It's a little bit of a hike for me, but their humidor is top notch and filled with all of the cigars I'm looking for. Their back area has a pool table and the regulars are always friendly.
If I want to catch dinner or don't feel like straying too far from home, I head over to either Havana Dreams in Woodhaven, NY or The Habana Hut in Bayside, NY.
The former has a decent humidor, an outdoor area for the summer and a bar that serves beer and wine. The latter is the smallest of the three but is the one I visit the most due to its location (right by a bunch of restaurants on Bell Blvd.) and crowd. The humidor isn't large by any means, (maybe 6 ft. wide by 30 ft. long) but it has a good line of tats and padrons and always has something new for me to try.
The regulars are awesome and always easy going and welcoming.

Man... a pool table would be freaking awesome... I would probably never leave.

Habana Premium cigar shop is my home shop here in Albany. Scotty (owner) is a great guy.

That's a nice place Doug!
This is quite a list here.
For me it is Cigars International SuperStore, and often the CI Downtown store as well.
I actually should give a shout out to Eric an employee at CI here because if it weren't for him telling me about Kutztown's professional teaching program I probably wouldn't be on my way to getting certified to teach chemistry.

Milan Tobacconists is a great shop, the owners, David and Renée, are definately good people!
They are located downtown on Jefferson Street in Roanoke.

I second J&J Cigars as the owner is a good guy and has a good selection. He's good friends with Pete so it's nice to get the entire Tat selection. But unfortunately they are a long drive for me which means I can't visit too often.
The closest B&M to me is Smokey Joe's in Fife, WA. It's on an Indian Reservation so there are no taxes and they sell at MSRP which is great for customers! They only have one person that knows anything about cigars though as the other workers are waitstaff as they are really a huge lounge. But that one person is a good guy and most people that frequent there have become friends. They have about 10 big flat screen tv's with multiple couches and many leather chairs. They have a decent selection of beers and a full bar. You are more than welcome to bring your own cigars, but obviously you should be buying drinks and/or food if you do and those prices are good too. They have a pretty good selection of cigars and is a Tat retailer among the other big ones.
Here's their website to see pictures, but the pics don't do it justice.

That is totally cool Chris. Hadn't even heard they were doing Lounge's.
No I never heard of any company sponsoring a lounge. My local does stock and tries to push a ton of Drew stuff so I'm sure with the opening of a bigger shop they will get even more shelf space. It should be pretty cool though, cheap membership and open 24 hrs.
