Wow, outstanding cigars. I’ve been enjoying cigars for years now, tried many places and many different brands. A close friend of mine heard about this new cigar lounge in Columbia IL and wanted to give it a try. Mike was very friendly and knowledgeable upon arrival, enjoyed 2 delightful cigars there and bought one to go. Currently enjoying one this evening on my patio as I type this review. Hugely underrated place and word needs to spread, truly FINE cigars. Grab a Macedo (sorry if I butchered the spelling) cigar and you will be pleased. Thank you Mike for opening Havana Fine Cigars, I’ll be back!

Great job! This is great to see another cigar lounge in Southern Illinois. The great thing about this place is the carefully curated selection of boutique cigars. Location was super easy to find too.
My boyfriend and I went Saturday night bc we wanted to try out a new environment and both like cigars. Mike was amazing. The moment we walked in he was so welcoming, he walked us through all the cigars they had in with amazing descriptions. My boyfriend and I each found one we really enjoyed. We spent about 3 hours sitting there talking with Mike. He was actually stationed in the same country I was a few years ago so we chatted about the good time there. He gave me advice for some VA issues I’ve been having. Not only did we find a new place that we will for sure be regulars at now, but I feel like we made a great friend. Such an awesome atmosphere to hang out in.
Wonderful establishment. Oozes friendliness, warmness and gives a great experience. Owners are fantastic, knowledgeable and customer first all the way. Can't recommend enough for anyone who enjoys a Cigar at any price point.
This place would be perfect if two conditions were met (based on my visit one year ago): (1) keep the lights down (I don’t want to be blinded by LEDs when I’m smoking and, especially, drinking.) (2) Don’t charge me for drinks that I have to buy and bring myself. (I understand a liquor license is virtually impossible for a cigar joint and that they’re trying to keep the rabble out, but it’s a huge turn-off.) If these two conditions can be ameliorated I’d gladly visit on a frequent basis and amend this review. But until then, I can just smoke cigars and drink on my patio.
