Great cigar bar in Ybor City. They have. a huge humidor selection of cigars to include hand rolled both local and from Nicaragua. Then if it couldn’t get any better, we smoked them while enjoying amazing couple old fashioned cocktails. The staff here is friendly and knowledgeable and what a great way to spend an afternoon in Ybor.

Review: King Corona Cigars & Bar ​If you are looking for an authentic, old-school feel that captures the heart of a historic cigar district, King Corona is a staple. While it offers a different, more grounded energy than the grand, architectural scale of Grand Cathedral, it remains a "must-visit" for anyone who appreciates the craft. ​The Atmosphere ​King Corona feels like a classic social hub. It’s vibrant, bustling, and unpretentious. Sitting out on the sidewalk with a cigar and a coffee is one of the best ways to people-watch and soak in the local culture. It doesn't have the soaring ceilings of a cathedral, but it makes up for it with a warm, "neighborhood favorite" charm. ​The Highlights ​The Coffee: Their café serves some of the best Cuban espresso around. Pairing a fresh cafecito with a midday smoke is the quintessential experience here. ​The Selection: They carry a fantastic variety of boutique blends and established names. Their house-rolled options are also worth exploring if you want something unique to the shop. ​The Shop: Beyond just cigars, the retail side is great for finding high-quality guayaberas, accessories, and unique gifts. ​The Verdict ​While Grand Cathedral wins on sheer "wow factor" and atmosphere, King Corona is a rock-solid choice for a relaxed, authentic experience. It’s the kind of place where you feel like a regular the moment you walk in. It may be a step below the Cathedral in terms of luxury, but it is a top-tier destination for quality tobacco and a great local vibe.

It would be impossible to say all the great things about this place in a little review box. Suffice to say that this is, truly, my happy place. Cigar lounges, in general, are populated by two types of people... friends, and friends-to-be. This is no exception. Every time I go there, I'm happy. I talk to complete strangers about any and everything. It just has that kind of vibe. The staff is great and knowledgeable about drinks, cigars, or just business in general and never too busy to chat. The humidor has over 1,200 cigars that range in price from under $10 per stick to well into 3 figures. The humidor staff really knows their stuff and is always ready with advice or a cut and light. The bar staff makes some of the finest Cuban coffee you can find and one of the best espresso martinis anywhere.

This place is so cool. Amazing selection of cigars. Great bar and excellent coffee!! Gentleman in humidor is a true expert and is great at suggesting cigars. The owner is super nice , actually let us borrow his own personal lighter while we sat out front and enjoyed the atmosphere.

Beautiful shop and great place to hang at night to enjoy the Ybor scenery. Coffee was delicious and my guy thoroughly enjoyed his cigar. Really looking forward to going back to enjoy spending more time there. The ladies behind the bar were top notch as well, super friendly and very attentive!
