Jimmy's Cigar Lounge — Local services in West Melbourne

11/15/23...NO CHANGE. Still the best place to buy and smoke while enjoying a "family." I published a review elsewhere on 2/18/23. In the time since, I have hit 100% of the times in lighting the correct end of the cigar (once was a close call). But, here's what I know about Jimmy's and cigar bars/lounges: Very broadly, there are two kinds of cigar stores (where you can smoke too). Those that have a lounge setting and those that don't. I've experienced the former and it's just not what I prefer. So, I landed at Jimmy's. Again, I've never met a friendlier group of people I don't know than at Jimmy's. I know the faces and some of the names. Even people I've never seen before are friendly and helpful. It's a fraternity of sorts and the only cost of admission is walking in the door. Sit; don't sit. Buy; don't buy. Smoke; don't smoke. You are a welcome first time visitor, semi-regular attender or those we can't seem to get rid of. Just kidding on the last one. Back to choices: Be a part of a conversation/start one; stay silent. Look at the movie playing; read a book; stare off into space, relax (and here I would say "don't relax" but I don't know how that's done at Jimmy's.) Beginner. Experienced. Expert (yeah, right). Whatever level you are at, you got a place at Jimmy's. It isn't about how big the store is. It isn't about having every cigar ever made available. It's not about your favorite alcoholic beverage. It's about cigars. But, mostly it's about people. Last thing : Guy named "Bob" runs the place....with help. Let that sink in. Jimmy's. Bob the owner. And if there is a Jimmy, we'll start playing "Where's Jimmy?" And since my review is showing as "pretty epic," that a good place to stop. ...

I am here to give everyone my personal experience, this is just my EXPERIENCE! First off, John and Jimmy; absolutely knowledgeable outstanding owners. They have taken care of me and educated in many areas on the cigar world. I have smoked at the lounge, have taken cigars home as well. I can assure you the quality and the quantity they have is actually outstanding. I have never seen a tarnished or ripped cigar. I have noted they take very good care of their product, and take pride in running the store. I will be 100% honest and say they do not have quite the largest boutique section, but that does not affect me because I am still rather new! John recommended me my all time favorite cigar and helped me get my first humidor, lighter and cigar. I am giving this place 5 stats because they are more than just a "Cigar Lounge" I have felt such an inclusion, I would much rather buy from them then online even if it is cheaper online strictly because I believe they deserve it. To the Women who work there and I wish I remembered their names but they are absolutely adorable and always greet me with a smile and remember my name! Thank you Jimmy's, you guys have improved my life...

Let me start with a disclaimer. I am not an avid cigar smoker. I walked in just to get a couple cigars for a special occasion that night. Once I walked in everyone was very helpful and friendly. I was shocked at how cool the vibe is when you walk in. I was happy that they didn't try to sell me on the most expensive cigars. They actually pointed me towards a good and fair priced cigar. However the vibe was so welcoming that I actually stayed and smoked a cigar with the guys. I just kicked back relaxed and had great conversations with everyone. Once I was done the first thought in my head was that I have to bring some of my guy friends there. I highly recommend this place for anyone who is not even a cigar smoker but just want a lounge...
