While away at a conference in Ventura, CA I came across a really great cigar lounge in town. Thought I would share some pictures and impressions. I would be curious to hear if any fellow brown leafers are familiar with this lounge.
The owner Vic was an excellent host and very friendly. As Vic explained, the prior owner of the lounge was going to close it a few years back. Vic and five other guys decided to go-in co-op style and buy the place, which they have owned for the past 6 years.
Here is a picture of me enjoying a cigar I picked up at the lounge -
The interior is pretty spacious with cigar and pipe accessories to buy aa well as wall art posters and signs.
The lounge also had a large screen and a smaller screen T.V. The dodgers game last Saturday on one and golf on another. The lounge is usually frequented by a bunch of guys that stop by after a few rounds of golf.
Everyone was really nice and one of the co-owners that also owns an Italian restaurant in Ventura, brought pounds of smoked pork and homemade coleslaw to make sliders -
All-in-all, a great way to spend my afternoon before my conference started.
