How long of a layover? Take 10-15 minutes to get there from airport, but I'd recommend Cigars and More, Trussville store. Assuming you're driving: Leave airport on Airport Hwy (only way out), about a mile, go under interstate, turn left far side of interstate onto ramp. WARNING: I-20/59 splits right about the airport exit, and ramp lane goes onto I-20, not I-59, so you have to hit ramp fast, immediately get over to the left lanes. I-59 north to the I-459 bypass, stay in right lane, cause exit is right after I-459 splits off. Exit is cloverleaf, so when you get off, keep to right, then straight on U.S.Hwy 11 (Gadsden Hwy). Strip shopping center on right, just past Raceway gas station, store on far right end. Addy is: 1423 Gadsden Hwy.
To go back to airport, exit to the left out of parking lot (heavy traffic area warning), go about a block, get in turn lane before I-459. Turn left onto ramp, at top of ramp, head over to far left lane. Stay on interstate southbound, I-20 will merge with I-59 about 5 miles or so, on a big sweeping curve to the right. Just past merging, Airport Blvd is to the right, so, at I-20 merge, get over to far right, exit at end of curve. Turn left at bottom of ramp, takes you straight back to terminal. If you are taking a taxi, then none of this matters! Just know you want the U.S. Hwy 11 (Gadsden Hwy) exit off I-459, then north a block or so to first strip center on the right.
Smoking area in rear, decent humidor, knowledgeable people (mostly).
Enjoy
