Smokey Joes is such an awesome place to go. Have you seen the new place being built called Stogies? I'm kind of nervous it will take a lot of business from Joes (if they arent owned by the same company) but I'm excited Joes will be less crowded.

Smokey Joes has plenty of regulars that are all friends with other customers and all the workers... they will probably lose the casual cigar smoker but I would be shocked if more than a few regulars stop going to Smokey Joes. I will check out the new place just to see it, but I will always go to Smokey Joes as they are friends.

And they are not the same owners.

I'm not worried at all. There's more than enough business to support both places, and Joes has a lot of loyal clientele who have been there for a long time, and the staff is great.

Im about 20 minutes north of Joes! Thats a good eye! How close are you to the area?

I'm not close at all (I live in Sammamish) but prefer to make the drive down there vs going to Lit (I'm a couple exits up from Lit). I usually get to Joes earlier in the day and leave about the time traffic starts to die down.

Stogies will be a check it out kind of place but it would have to be spectacular to pull me away from Joes. I agree with Ryan, the casuals will go elsewhere but the Joes customer will stay loyal.

I for one can tell you they treat me well and I have enjoyed getting to know them all as well as the casual conversational friends I've made at Joes.

I sense a HERF happening with the WA BOTLs!

Absolutely, a herf would be awesome! Joes is the best place. They really got me started with cigars, the service there is outstanding.
