I am a photographer and my client wanted to have a shoot here. I needed to speak with the owner before I agreed to anything. After meeting the owner and getting the approval to schedule a photo shoot here I was excited. The place is very relaxed and you can enjoy a wide variety of cigars inside. The bartenders were very cool and great at making a classic old fashioned.
I did not eat this time but the fact the owner allowed me to conduct some business here and the drinks were made perfectly, I will definitely be back.
I recommend visiting this place. They are moving into a bigger building soon also. Newport News is gonna have a new upscale spot for whiskey and cigars.

We were lucky that we found this place. From the time we walked in the door we felt very welcomed. We were guided to the cigar selection, which was decent and there were enough choices for our group. The bartender and staff were exceptional and took great care of us. They provided recommendations on drinks and food and they were spot on. The food was wonderful not what one would normally expect at a cigar lounge. The other patrons were friendly and welcomed us to the lounge. If you are in the area and looking for a great place to smoke and have a cocktail this place is highly recommended.

First off I have to thank the owners. I was made to feel at home. Their old fashioned’s are one of a kind. They went out of their way to make me feel welcome. I went back a second time.
Now for some background. This is 10/10/25. The artists playing are having a good time. The drummer has touch, the bass (unfortunately) sticks in his place, the keys as well, just providing what’s needed for this young Erykah Badu/Jill Scott. She throwing melodies over melodies that slides like butter (not Parkay), in a room filled with smoke. She was belting like a mad lady, regardless of the fumes. Although, her notes could be resolved more often, I can get where she’s coming from. It was exciting and revealing to hear a woman crave relationship so much. We rarely see to grit of real intimacy in today’s world. She really cut through that tonight.
I’m a whyte boi from Louisiana. I’m just stopping by. I’m the only saltine in the room. Everyone even affiliated with this great business addressed me. I don’t know who worked there or who owned it, but everyone that addressed me took ownership with their kindness.
I’m so happy I got the Tailored experience. And thank you Brittany.
Edit*** guitar you can riff all day
I also have to mention how that group or band gave space to each other. It was impressive how attentive they were to the song, and the lead.

Let’s just talk about the bar…. I’ll share food late but the drinks and bartenders, being exceptional. This spot is members only, so there is a few to get in. However, there is an experience once you enter, worth the price of admission.
Watching them prepare drinks for others, as well as what has been prepared for me, was a delightful sight.
My drinks were tasteful and not watered down. I ask the bartender to surprise me and it was a great surprise. Not gonna say how many, but I loved them all.
The food was just as good. But I did keep it simple. Shrimp cocktail and chicken wings. Very good. Flavorful and filling.
Topped it all off with the cigar selection. Very knowledgeable staff. They will cut and light for you. Explained what I was getting before I got it and made sure it was the one I desired.
10/10 recommended.
