Jacksonville, Fl B&Ms
 

I'm going to be in Jacksonville for work this week and next. Of course I'm going to be looking to hang out at nice shop a few times. Does anyone have any suggestions for places worth checking out? I'll have plenty of my own sticks so I won't be left high and dry.

Ill be staying at the Embassy Suites on Baymeadows Rd if that helps because I imagine the city itself is quite large. Thanks.

There is a shop called Tobacco Cove at the corner of Baymeadows and San Jose that I like, but there isn't much space to hang out there. I think the nicest lounges in the Jax area are the Island Girl shops. There is one off of 9A not too far from your hotel.

Yes, we can all search google.

But as we all know, just because some place calls itself a cigar shop, doesn't mean it's worth going to. Instead of wasting time driving around, it's best to ask locals who know these things.

quantim0...from Palm Bay you should come down to Vero Beach and visit Havana Club. They roll their own cigars.....very well made and a good smoke for their price. Also a great place to just hang out in.

I go to Jacksonville frequently on business and there are two places that I like to visit. I also stay in the Baymeadows area, and these two places are not far from there. The first place is "Aromas" www.aromascigars.com. This is a very comfortable place to spend an hour or more smoking a cigar, using your laptop, relaxing in large leather chairs, and taking advantage of their outstanding happy hour (1/2 price drinks, discounts (might be 1/2 price, not sure) on appetizers..call for the happy hour times, but I think it is until 7). They have live music on some nights. OnThursday and Friday nights in particular it is very popular with not just cigar smokers, but after-work crowds, groups of ladies, and all sorts of nice people. The other place I like to go to is called Island Girl Cigars www.islandgirljax.com. They have 2 locations, one at Neptune Beach (about 30 mins from Baymeadows). I have not been to this location, but understand they have a lot of beers on draft. The location I have been to is at 7860 Gate Parkway. They have a better cigar selection than Aromas, and the atmosphere is comfortable. I've enjoyed spending an hour or longer enjoying my cigar, having a drink, and working on my laptop. Hope these suggestions help. I travel throughout the Southeast and these two are among my favorite cigar bars to go to.
