Absolutely loved this place. It was our first experience and it was all love. The band was awesome and showed us so much love and great crowed as well. Make sure you check your receipt prior to paying. We had a couple of extra charges for the band fee. I am not sure if it was due to us treating others for drinks but either way we shouldn’t have been charged. I did it get corrected and when the server pointed out who we brought a drink for, I pointed out the fact that we brought a drink and didn’t have anything else to do with anything they had going on. Seating in the band area is first come first serve so check the time that the band arrives and go 30 or so mins earlier to get a seat and have time to order.
Edit: let me add that I reviewed my account today (03/25/24) and I had extra charges pending on my card/account. I called and asked for the manager who I felt like answered the phone because it was the same person that I spoke to originally Saturday (03/23/2024) about the venue. The person kept saying hello after I asked her for the manager then hung up. I called right back and a guy answered and he stated she will be back in 30mins. I called right back to see if someone else could help or I was going up there and she asked for my name, number, last 4 of my card and will get the manager to call me back. We truly liked this place but at this point, we are not sure if we will be returning. I gave them 5 stars originally but reduced it down due to them wanting to charge me what they wanted versus what they should have LEGALLY!! Plus I never got a call back!!

Oh my goodness my boyfriend took me here on a date night on a Sunday. The music was incredible. It’s an older atmosphere, but the vibes are genuine and a place to feel comfortable.
They have an underground bar as well and that’s the place where you wanna party and dance. It’s a great set up they have here. make sure to explore all the way upstairs to all the way underground.
The only thing is the prices. You can expect DC prices if you know what I mean. For one cigar and two shots $50 was paid.

Awesome selection of cigars and whiskey pairings to enjoy while you listen to fantastic live music 7 nights a week. What’s not to like!

DEFINITELY go check this place out! The vibe and ambiance really hit the spot. While I didn’t partake in a cigar this trip, I did enjoy a tasty beverage from their extensive liquor selection. I believe the bartender said over 300 bottles of varying type to choose from. One side of the bar is all the whiskeys/bourbons/scotches.. And the other side is all the clear liquors. The ventilation is very good as well. Yes – the place smells of cigars, but it isn’t overpowering and adds to the ambiance. They have a long bar, and even a side room with comfortable chairs to hang out and relax with a cigar and a beverage. They also had a pretty good selection of cigars of varying type and price. Definitely recommend giving this place a try if you’re in the area.

Absolutely loved the atmosphere at this place. I was there for a scotch and a cigar on a Sunday night and was quite surprised to see they had a great sounding band playing. I understand this place has been there for over a hundred years and it’s evident by looking at the workmanship of the bar itself.

Amazing atmosphere, very nice daily live jazz music. Classic Pub design. Go early to catch a seat or table. Be aware that it’s a cigar lounge, so there’s a lot of smoke inside.

Cool and mellow vibe. Cigars are a bit pricey for the selection that they have. If you smoke you’d be better off brining your own. Live music and a pretty cool atmosphere

On a recent trip to DC and staying in Alexandria, we stumbled onto this Cigar Lounge through the sounds of live music. We walked up the stairs and were met by the sounds of the Lynwood Taylor Blues band.
We got a mixture of drinks from Long Island’s to champagne and everyone enjoyed them. Myself and a friend looked over the cigar menu and chose a mild Blackwood.
This is not one of my longer reviews but at the end of the day we only got drinks, cigars, and live music. If I’m being honest the only reason for the four star was that the volume of the band could have been mixed a bit better for the venue. The lyrics were drowned out to being pointless but damn those guys could play their instruments like surgeons! Not an easy place to hold a conversation because of this; unless you move to the back of the bar. I will DEFINITELY be back if ever in Alexandria again!

This is a gem! Live music, good service, and air circulation systems make enjoying a cigar an exceptional bonus. Food and drinks are available of course. This is the top floor of 219. Main floor is a restuarant and underground is another bar!
