Vegas/ LA/Laguna Beach

[Webbo]

Will be travelling to the above for a week or so to meet with family who are on vacation there. I’m sure I will be on babysitting duties for my nephews and nieces but in my “free” time I will be looking for a nice place for a drink and cigar. Any of our local members have any must do places  to recommend?

The Ritz Carlton in Laguna Beach sells cigars but I think you can only smoke on the balcony of your room. But they have an outdoor bar called 180 Blu that has an incredible view of the ocean, with great lunch fare and drinks.  

 

Montecristo lounge in Vegas (Caesars) has a great selection of cigars, bourbon, scotch, rum etc.

Lone Wolf cigars on Wilshire Blvd is a great smoking lounge. Unfortunately because of strict smoking laws in California it has become more and more difficult to find a good place to smoke and have a drink. Next to impossible. 

True! I live in Beverly Hills and I joined Lone Wolf because of the city restrictions on smoking. Either you or @Webbo are welcome to be my guest if you wanna come to the lounge.

Try Cubana Cigars in Laguna - gear view of pacific, with beer and wine available.

Also if someone here has a membership the Grand Havana room in LA is nice too...

As you pass through the lobby of the Ritz Carlton,  on the right hand side of the hallway there's a balcony overlooking a large courtyard.  You're free to smoke cigars on the balcony.

I needed to clarify that you can smoke on the balcony and not in the courtyard.

Thank you for the offer. Again demonstrating this forum is the home of super generous brothers and sisters.

That's so generous of you, thank you! I would like to take you up on that. I've met the proprietor David (if he is still the owner) years ago at the SM location and couldn't speak highly enough about him. Please PM your number and I will get in contact with you this week. I also have some Anejo Havana Club Rum to share!

David is still the owner and a great guy and very generous.

In Corona Del Mar (close to Laguna Beach) is Gulfstream restaurant, they have a great outdoor seating area with drink and food menu.  You can bring your own smoke and enjoy the OC weather.
