As someone who truly loves cigars this has been Best cigar house I’ve ever visited! Incredible selection, top-quality cigars, and knowledgable staff. Ran into this by accident Friday night and there was a party going on but all were welcomed. Nice bar at the back as well to enjoy your cigar and a drink with lots of seating available. The amount of cigars available is crazy. So ask for help. Pro tip- they have cigars made in Puerto Rico that you can not find in the states.

If you’re a cigar enthusiast visiting Old San Juan, Cigar House is an absolute must-visit! From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly staff who are more than happy to guide you through their extensive selection. The humidor here is one of the largest I’ve seen in Puerto Rico, stocked with an impressive variety of cigars from top brands and boutique selections. Whether you’re looking for a classic Dominican, Nicaraguan, or Cuban-style cigar, they have something for every preference. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality and range they offer. The lounge itself is beautiful and inviting, perfect for enjoying your cigar in comfort. The seating areas are thoughtfully arranged, offering a mix of leather couches, high-top tables, and cozy corners, making it easy to relax solo or with a group. The décor is rich with cigar culture, featuring framed artwork and a stunning wooden mural that captures the essence of cigar craftsmanship. To top it all off, they have a fully stocked bar with premium spirits, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you’re a seasoned smoker or just starting out, Cigar House in Old San Juan is an excellent place to unwind and indulge in a great smoke. Highly recommended!

I like this Cigar lounge, this was my second time coming here. However, they seem to be all and only about the money and not an ounce of Customer Courtesy! (That's why I gave them Three Stars) I believe when a customer comes to your establishment and spends almost $200 each time and thats only on cigars, not even drinks; the least they could have done was fill up my torch with lighter fluid when I asked instead of telling me I can purchase a can. Yes, I could have, however I can't take that back on the plane with me. I smoke cigars, I know this lifestyle is an expensive habit, but I think they are overpriced and needs to work on their customer courtesy.

If you are an occasional or avid cigar smoker, you must visit. Largest walk-in humidor I have ever seen. All brands (no Cuban who cares) in stock. Plenty of sticks in the 15 to 20 range as well as exotics. Really comfortable smoking area w a full bar, comfy couches, air conditioning and ventilation. Lots of bottled rum for sale. First class operation, friendly staff, just visit!

What a phenomenal cigar shop! The humidors are massive and loaded with thousands of amazing cigars! Not only is it a pleasure to shop these fine samples of tobacco, there is a relaxing area to sit enjoy your purchases. A return trip is a must!

We've been coming to Puerto Rico every year since around 2015. This has always been our favorite cigar lounge on the island. Was anxious, after a hard day traveling from Atlanta to kick off our vacation here. Loved the elderly owners. Saw they were open till 11:00 p.m. so decided to get a quick dinner first. I guess 5 to 10 people wasn't enough, so they decided to kick everyone out at 9:30. We were only halfway thru our $15 sticks. With no place to finish them, we just left them. I'd hope to go thru the humidor and buy a box of My Father the Judge or Illusione MJ-12, which are really hard to find back home now. But to be honest, I'm not going back there, at least this trip. My favorite place hurt me. Made me feel unimportant. Esta bien. Go if you want, it is a nice place, but don't be surprised if you get treated poorly

It was a wonderful experience to visit a lounge outside of the US. The humidor was awesome. The staff was cool and helpful. The selection of cigars was plentiful but they did not have most of my go to sticks. But it did give me a chance to look at other types of cigars and try those.

I have been here many times over the years, and I enjoy it each and every time . The store is huge with the large humidor with an even larger selection of cigars. The service is great, and you can enjoy your cigars while having a drink . I always feel like I'm paying a fair price.I even a new beautiful pipe

Very disappointed tonight after lots of visits. During my brief stay this trip, they have been opening late and closing earlier than the posted hours The upside of them closing almost two hours early tonight was the discovery of Casa de Montecristo a few blocks away. It's my new favorite cigar spot in Old San Juan.

The Cigar House is a great cigar lounge with a fifty year history under continuous ownership by the original proprietors sticking to tradition, very evident in its appearance and energy. The Thursday evening I was there had its regulars trickling through limited by the rains. The exterior does not begin to convey the adherence to traditional decor. I suspect a lot of furniture has been there the whole half century. Upon entry, you see all manner of cigar accessories and even a great selection of straw and leather hats. The hats seemed to be fit to compliment a Gentleman. A clean bathroom to your left precedes a desk to your left with a plexiglass barrier ostensibly there for Covid reasons. Cash and credit cards accepted. Leather couches and chairs are all around you at the front of the house, mingling with various display cases and those hats. The heart of the house has a double room humidor again on your left with commensurate capacity. The strongest suit appears to be Arturo Fuente, but they have all manner of brands and vitolas, including their House Blend in Toro and Robusto. Do not underestimate their slightly peppery, but well rounded nutty medium to slightly full profile. Seriously, for about ten bucks, you'll be glad you chose them and they are multiple or five pack worthy. Their house blend transitions well and the second half adds a touch of cedar to round out the whole affair. Not terribly complex, but easy to draw with the right resistance and easier to enjoy. Prices seem fair. Step further into the heart of The Cigar House and take note of the couch and upright seating with hightopper tables under an opaque skylight transversing the ceiling. Even more impressive was the number of air filters and air conditioning units above keeping you, your clothes and your girlfriend's hair free of smoke. Do not underestimate the value of that last sentence. The back of the house has a more dimly lit leather lounge seating area with a bar serving beer and a very wide range of spirits to suit most any connoisseur. The bottles are not limited to the bar. They are all around in display cases that line the hallway that runs past the humidor rooms and the aforementioned couches and hightop seating. They have a lot of liquor in there and some bottles one may not always encounter. Rum was the order of the evening and they have some excellent solers rums and another coffee infused rum that was unique and delicious. It's a bit rare, so there are apparently not many of these bottled. That's just the beginning and feel free to ask for your choice of scotch, bourbon, or whatever you have on your palate's mind. It will be served up neat or on the rocks. This is not a cocktail affair. The Cigar House is a great place to unwind and feel the tradition of sharing a space where many folks have, regular folks and those whose pictures, paintings, and posters adorn the walls. A great place to chill after walking around the two forts nearby, a perfect place to cap off a day in Old San Juan. Come on a Friday or Saturday with no rain and the energy may elevate a bit more. Four stars and you may say more.

Old faithful cigar lounge that we always hit when in San Juan. Probably our first stop every time we land in Puerto Rico so we can have our cigars for the trip. The service is always top notch and the selection of cigars is superb with tons of varieties of different cigar brands and sizes. There are tons of other merchandise you can buy also to take back as souvenirs or use while your on your trip such as lighters, cutters or even shirts. The value is perfect in my opinion with many cigars at the $10 and of course higher if you feel like splurging.

If you can't find your brand or something else from their huge array you should not be smoking cigars. The staff are knowledgeable and ready to assist you. Great place. I go when ever I'm in San Juan Thanks guys

This place has the largest cigar selection I've ever seen. It's awesome. There's just a ridiculous amount of cigars and they even carry my Late Night Hour Davidoff. Very reasonably priced also. Probably the cheapest you'll find in PR. The bar in the back though is overpriced and I don't ever get a drink back there.

Always a favorite stop spot for me when in San Juan. Absolutely the best humidor I've been to, and I've been to many! Every "fine" cigar you can imagine and really fair prices. If you are ever in old San Juan PR, make the Cigar House a priority!

This spot was referred to us by a family member and we're glad we checked it out. The place is laid back and open. It has an area to shop, the biggest walk in humidor Ive seen with a big selection & more than one lounge area with very comfortable furniture. They provide magazines for reading materials along with a bar to serve drinks. All staff were kind, friendly & very helpful. They knew their products and had great suggestions and recommendations. I've never had a cigar and didn't even know how to smoke it but tried one out because, why not! lol They recommended a petite cigar with a mocha taste and it was good for a first timer like myself. My hubby had a local brand from Puerto Rico and he enjoyed it along with the ambience of the place. They have all types and brands of cigars along with accessories. We bought a case of a local brand and love the case it came in. I highly recommend this spot. The location is in a busy touristic area, so plan to look for parking. Your best bet is a parking garage in the area.

I visited while in Old San Juan for the first time. I appreciated not being pressured while in the store. I asked a lot of questions and the person helping me was very helpful. The walk-in humidor... YESSSS :) so many... over 500 brands. I was excited to have a strong signal to FaceTime a friend to show them where I was so they could also see what was available and make a purchase as well. Next time I am in Puerto Rico I will be sure to return and enjoy the experience as whole- bar and lounge.

This was the perfect spot to have a stogy and a drink to end our old san juan day trip. The hubs knows his cigars and heard the great ratings of this place and he was in heaven. The place had everything, even a lacked room for customers to look at all their different cigars from all over the world. I picked a small one that was medium and tasted like chocolate and he had a richer flavorful one. Our host was great, he knew his cigars as well so great conversations were had. We went to their back room where they had a seating area and a full a bar. We stayed till we finished our cigars and had some beers.. like I said perfect way to end your day! Definitely recommend this place!

This is the only cigar place you want to go to Their house cigar is good - medium bodied. Worth the $13 They've got it all from opus x (overpriced) to lfds and literally everything in between. Easily one of the best humidors I've been inside. Great drinks too. Very friendly staff. Can't go wrong

I'm overdue for a review of this wonderful low key cigar establishment. During our stay in Old San Juan in August, I found this cigar bar which is a "My Father Cigars Lounge" . I've been to many nice cigar lounges in FL and this one is by far one of the largest and most eclectic. They are stocked everything you can think of from floor to ceiling. Being that you can buy any cigars anywhere, I went with the local Puerto Rico cigars that can only be bought there. The Puerto Rico 965 and Hoja Boricua are a great afternoon smoke. I picked up a few sampler boxes to bring back home to South Florida. When back home I had given a pack to a friend and he loved it so much and tried to find them online and no luck. So now I'm on the phone with The Cigar House now trying to order some direct for Christmas gifts . Thus my review.

Cigars are my form of meditating and after what has already been a long year Welp you get it. We took an amazing stroll and wound up here. A beautiful shop filled with pictures & memories. A beautiful humidor and variety of cigars. Lots of one of a kind tries and made for this location only. Everyone was friendly and super helpful. The sitting arrangements are great everything from a couch to a recliner. They have an assortment of beverages including coffee. All in all it was exactly what I needed and the perfect amount of calm was achieved. Covid note: temp is taken at entrance. Spray sanitizer is available at entrance. Seating is socially distant. Employees are wearing masks.

I was in Puerto Rico for a week. My boyfriend wanted to buy cigars for his birthday. So we stumbled on this place. Upon entering the shop, we were greeted and welcomed by friendly staff. They have such a wide variety of cigars from Latin America to sub-Saharan Africa --I was very impressed with their selections. We bought a couple of cigars, and smoked a couple in the shop. The place is kept very clean and fresh. Would definitely recommend this shop for the best cigars in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

It was good. Not great. Cigars were a little pricey compared to a few other cigar stores in the area. Service was good.

This place is amazing. I don't even know where to begin. The people are very friendly and patient while you browse their large humidor. One you make a selection you can sit in the big seating area with giant leather sofas, chairs, and tables. The roof is glass windows which seems very relaxing during a rain storm, combined with the soft piano music playing in the background and good conversations. I have been in San Juan for 2 days now and have gone both days. Will more than likely go back today and tomorrow. A MUST FOR ANY CIGAR LOVER.

They claim to be the largest humidor in the Carribbean and I believe it. Been here several and met the owners. We have them two day notice that we would be bringing over 30 people to buy cigars, drinks and hang out. They were more than happy to have us and all my guests said they had a great time. Huge selection of both hard to find and reasonably priced cigars and drinks. Great history on the walls. We will be back.

The cigar selection here is unreal, the humidor is one if the largest i have seen, they have a great selection including some rare/hard to find cigars. They also have an area to sit and smoke with tvs as well as a bar area. The seating area and bar area are not fancy at all and i didnt stay but definitely a place to at least stop in if cigars are your thing!

The selection at this place was amazing and the amount of choices is overwhelming. However the employee who helped me was not very knowledgeable. So you better know what you like before you go in. I've smoked cigars for several years, but I'm still learning my taste. She steered me to two different cigars that were not good at all. That was frustrating, considering that I dropped so much money there. If you're looking for a good local cigar there is a lady who sits on the corner, at the main square who hand rolls them. Her cigars were very good.

This is a wonderful cigar shop! Walking in you immediately get a retail vibe but then quickly realize this is more than just a cigar store. They do have many tobacco accessories for just about anyone but they also have a very large humidor which houses not only a wide variety of cigars but some very exceptional cigars as well. If you need any assistance with your selection or have questions, the staff here know exactly what they are talking about and will be more than happy to help. There is a very comfortable lounge to sit in and enjoy your smoke, the large leather furniture settings, situated with tables and ashtrays within reach makes this a relaxing place to sit, socialize and sample the contents of that large humidor. You can also sit and have a few drinks with your favorite stick, whether you looking for a good beer, glass of wine or scotch, they have got you covered. Have a smoke and drink for me, Cheers!

We happened to find this beautiful cigar house while visiting Puerto Rico. This looks small from the outside but once you enter it is huge!!! They have everything that a cigar lover needs and want from shirts,hats,butane, an insane cigar rooms. This humidor rooms was beautiful and the selection of just about every top cigar on hand. There is also plenty of room sit and have a drink from the bar while enjoying your new cigars. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and will answer questions if needed. The walls are adorned with celebrities that have visited and it just feels warm and inviting.

What a collection of cigars, wine, and spirits... this place is it all. Excellent staff that spent time with me to guide me to a few excellent cigars. They had a number of locations to relax and enjoy your cigar and could pair it with your favorite alcohol. The only negative about this place is that it seems to cater more to locals, at least at the bar area. The staff primarily speak Spanish wish IMO is not a problem but can make it difficult to explain exactly what you want. Overall a great place in Old San Juan to grab a good cigar !

Wow! This place is a dream for cigar smokers! It's deceiving as it looks quite small, but the place goes on and on. The humidor is huge! The prices of the cigars are cheaper than you can get in the store, or, online in the States. They also have local cigars, humidors and lighters for sale.

WOW WOW WOW... what a selection this place has. It's almost sensory overload with the size of their humidor and variety of ring, length, as well as every wrapper from all of the big names as well as more boutique cigars and even some local and house rolled beauties. If you're ever in this area and in old San Juan, and need a cigar, check them out...they won't disappoint.

This is a wonderful stop along our walking tour of Old San Juan. Nestled amongst beautifully painted buildings, it's arguably one of the most beautiful lounges I've ever visited. They offer a wide variety of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Dominican brands. The bar is amazing and the people were very nice to us. I'm looking forward to visiting again in a couple months.

Sooo overwhelmed by this humidor! A room inside-a-room-inside-a-room I knew then, I found my cigar home away from home. I think Katianna could sense my anxiety from the jump. Immediately, she swooped in and put me at ease, introduced herself & let the conversation flow. Based on my usual (Acid Kuba Kuba) & recent new try's (Perdomo Champagne 10th Anniversary), she recommended some medium to bold, sweet-tip, lady-friendly (breath here) sticks that didn't blow the budget. This is the place that almost every man (local or visiting) recommend to me on word: cigar. I'll definitely be back to take in the whole ambiance. that bar & lounge is now on my PR must hit list.

Extremely nice establishment ....... beautiful store but humidors are extremely over humidified .. Moistures was all over the cigars,literally condensation/water inside the boxes... I assume the owner or manager is a newbie... I don't like to be suggested flavored cigars idk if he was trying to hard to make a guess on what I might like but idk .... I took it as ok sure and said I'm good

I was visiting Puerto Rico and decided to check out the cigar house and buy a gift for my boyfriend. As soon as I walked in, I was immediately amazed by this place; it was huge , lots and lots of different kinds of cigars. The owner greeted me as soon as I walked in and didn't hesitate to answer any questions I had. One of the workers there gave me a little tour and helped me find the perfect gift for my boyfriend! Although I don't smoke cigars , it was a very nice experience and I would recommend it to anyone who does love cigars. They have everything !!!!

Exceptional Cigar shop and lounge. There just not enough to write that can truly explain the atmosphere of this place. The selection...A+. The ambiance...A+. The staff and humidor...A++. Just a stellar shop for any level but truly a remarkable spot for any enthusiast. Make this a stopping point wether you plan to go to Old SanJuan or not.
