Cuban Crafters Cigar Lounge — a new cigar bar and tobacco shop — has recently opened its doors in the French Quarter, and offers an array of different cigars to enjoy, as well as a wide selection of locally-crafted spirits. Sashay over to 533 Toulouse St. to see what it's all about.
Palatial columns and subdued Cuban shades surround a room full of dark leather lounge chairs and marble tile. The cigar lounge specializes in private parties, corporate events and weddings, and encourages visitors to participate in a game of chess, dominoes, or Texas Hold 'em at one of its available game tables.
Cuban Crafters Cigar Lounge has received an enthusiastic response thus far, with a five-star rating out of seven reviews on Yelp.
"LOVE this place. It just opened up and has a stunning bar. The selection of whiskey, scotch, and cigars is amazing," wrote Yelper Gabriella G. "The staff is friendly and educated, and they welcome you to stay as long as you want! Amazing spot to relax and unwind."
Yelper Joshua S. added, “When you're tired of Bourbon St., kick back here with real bourbon and a smoke. Cuban Crafters is a fairly quiet lounge for its area, and they have a decent selection of cigars at a fair price."
Head on over to enjoy a fine cigar: Cuban Crafters Cigar Lounge is open from 11 a.m.–midnight on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, and 11 a.m.–2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
