Question Cigar Bars/Lounges in Raleigh, NC?

I happen to be in Raleigh, NC for a few days and am looking for cigar bar or lounge options. I brought my own cigars FWIW. Will be here over the weekend...

Any suggestions?

Not much in Raleigh proper.

There is K&S in Cary. 2722 NC-55, Cary, NC 27519
&
Apex Cigar Lounge 1510 N Salem St Apex, NC


It's been a little too hot for a cigar out on my patio otherwise I'd say come by. Let me know if you might head to Apex Cigar Lounge. I could use an excuse to go by and try out the new lounge.

Oh there is also JR's down in Selma about 40 minutes from Raleigh. Huge lounge and walk in on that one.

How about Angus Barn? I heard you can smoke cigars there? Is that correct?

State has a smoke free law for restaurants afaik. Maybe on the front porch or some balcony of the barn? The place is huge.

I went to a place near downtown called Havana Deluxe. Looks like it's been open for a long time, dark wood and dark décor. Very large liquor selection, with several beers on tap and bottle. Sounds like they have a decent cigar selection and the bartender was nice. I'll most likely go back before I leave. Gave the bartender an Upmann Noella that he immediately smoked and liked.

Just to the West of you is the excellent The Pipe and Pint in Greensboro.

You’re also close to JR’s huge shop in Burlington. Both easily accessible from I-40.

Went to Angus Barn which has a separate cigar lounge with full service food and beverage menu. Great place to enjoy a cigar. This should be default choice for the cigar smoker looking for an evening out in Raleigh. Seating is first come, first serve.

I started off with a Punch Punch and ordered an '05 Musar for the evening. After the Punch, went for SP Belicoso and ordered dinner after the SP which was a 24 oz. T Bone, and Caesar Salad. After dinner, I smoked another Punch Punch and an Upmann Noella along with 2 glasses of RWC Boston Bual Madeira.

Angus Barn has an expansive wine list with several deals scatter around. I wish I was there with one or two more as a few vintage port deals were less expensive at the restaurant than at the liquor store!
