moy71 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 I am off to Tokyo tonight. A quick google search has given me a couple of reasonable cigar bars to visit. I plan to go to the Chardonnay Cigar bar in Harajuku. Being a 3-month newbie in the cigar world, it will be my first visit to a bar. Looking forward to this very very much
Bill Hayes Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Le Connaisseur in Ginza is also very good. Enjoy. Love Tokyo! 1
LLC Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 The aquarium at Alfred Dunhill in Ginza on third floor. Cigars after 5pm. Awesome place for a drink and cigar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

moy71 Posted February 22, 2018 Author Posted February 22, 2018 Btw i also bought 3 cigars to "take away" and i was given a nice Cohiba cigar box to put it in.
omgpauljr Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 I used to go to Le Connaisseur in Shibuya when I lived and studied in Japan. I went back there in October 2017 and it was a great experience. My friend who lives in Tokyo told me that the Park Hyatt in Shinjuku is worth checking out, but I’ve never been there myself. Have fun on your vacation! 1
dealsrme Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Second vote for Le Connaisseur in Shibuya. Fantastic place for a smoke!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Deeg Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Topping an old thread... Headed up to Tokyo in a couple of weeks - any updates on the above list? I visited La Connaisseur a couple of times. Chardonnay looks interesting as well, and I'll check out the LCDH for sure when I'm there. But is there any place where you can bring your own and just order a drink or two? Tenqoo is a maybe but it looks like the sort of joint where a Japanese beer like Asahi is 15 bucks. 1
Duxnutz Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Anybody know anything near (train ride) from Narita?
99call Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Remember great days in Chardonnay smoking ERDGDE and Punch SS. Great service, great place 1
LLC Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 The bar on the third floor here after 5pm is a great place for a cigar. I always enjoy this spot. The Aquarium at Alfred DunhillAddress: 2-6-7 Ginza, Chuo-ku, TokyoSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That sounds like my bring your own choice (though Chardonnay may be worth a trip, too). For sure I'll check out LCDH as we don't have one in Kansai, but at Japanese prices hard to see anything more than one or two sticks just to try.

I quite like the small bar on the ground floor of The Palace Hotel. Expensive but very good. 1

Went here before sukiyabashi Jiro. Awesome environment and very private and sleek interior. I refrained from a cigar though because Jiro was up afterwards, a total bucket list restaurant. 2
Hoepssa Posted October 20, 2019 Posted October 20, 2019 Palace hotel bar is dandy, they moved to first floor in recent years, not the classic location it was. Imperial bar at 2F of Imperial Hotel, you can smoke any time during opening hours, classic one. Tokyu Capital hotel is close to their parliament (Akasaka) , there's a bar with great view. most bars in central tokyo (都心) are mostly cigar friendly, and old style coffee shops. 1
