Greetings! I am new to the forum, and new to Phoenix, AZ. I am looking for casual locations where cigars are welcome. Bars, Cafés, Comedy Clubs, etc. If you are aware of any, please drop me a line! I appreciate it!

David

David,

Where in Phoenix are you? I work in Scottsdale and like to hang out at Cigar King although I don't get up there as much as I'd like.

Eddie Matney's at 24th and Camelback has a cigar-friendly bar as well as a cigar club upstairs for members only (I think $1000/yr.) Haven't spent any time in the bar although we eat at the adjacent restaurant periodically. His food is great and is served in the bar as well. I've got a wife and kid so I don't go to bars and clubs, or smoke cigars, as much as I'd like.

Also, N.E. Phoenix/Scottsdale has about 7 cigar stores within a few miles of each other so we've got a better selection locally as a result. Actually, I think we're kind of spoiled compared to some of the others here that complain about not being able to find the cigars that they want.

Let me know (via this thread) if you'll be in the Scottsdale area and we can get together for a cigar sometime.

Saul,

Thank you for the help! I am in the general area of 24th & Camelback. And I frequent the Scottsdale Cigar King regularly. I have been to a number of cigar stores (You are correct – we are spoiled here!), but I think Cigar King is my favorite so far. Amazing place!

I am aware of Eddie Matney’s and a couple others in the Biltmore . . . but I rarely want to get that dressed up to go for a beverage and a cigar with my sweetheart. There is also a place over on 12th St. above Bethany Home called “Feeney's“. It is restaurant and bar that serves Greek & American food and is friendly to cigars in it’s bar. Doesn’t sell any, but is friendly. And I am not looking for an eatery that sells cigars, just one that is friendly toward them. Anyway, the dress at Feeney’s is casual, and the food is pretty good, so it is a start. I am just looking to create a longer list of options.

Sometimes my trips to Scottsdale (and the required stop at Cigar King) are planned, and often they are not. But once this holiday season is behind us and I am planning another trip to the Scottsdale area, I will let you know and we’ll get together. I appreciate your helpfulness, very much.

I’ll be in touch,
