Ambiance. Atmosphere. Customer Service. Cigar selection. Enormous space, with VIP area availability. Cool owner. Even cooler patrons. Great pricing and constant deals and vendor events. What more can you ask for, on the coolest strip in Philly?

I held my second cigar night here this past Saturday! As usual we had a great time. Kosta and the staff were helpful, and welcoming as always. I had 2 cigars(Drew Estate Natural English, Acid Blondie Belicoso) paired with some apple brandy. There was 9 in our party, and we all enjoyed ourselves equally. Can’t wait for part 3 in December!

Great spot to check out some cigars! The man that helped me was awesome and didn’t talk down to me after I told him I was new to cigars. Didn’t make me feel like I shouldn’t belong and even guided me to a good starter cigar line, that I thoroughly enjoyed. Good people and a nice place.

Just the best kind of business owner here — knows his stuff, loves the product, loves learning from customers, and cares about you. Highly recommended. Great scene and excellent selection of sticks.

Went in to buy a part for my broken hookah, the guy, who was also bartending, came over to help us right away. Although they didn’t have the piece I needed, he allowed us to look at his computer to help us find it online. We went back later that evening to buy shisha for the hookah and the same guy helped us picked out great flavors and rung us up. The place is also BYOB which is always a plus !! Very professional and nice looking establishment.

This was my 1st visit and I will definitely be visiting again & recommending it to friends. Great lounge area for large parties to smoke. It’s BYOB which is good($ 11 corking fee). They also have a membership option for $ 24/mo if u smoke often which helps avoid the $ 11 fee for each visit. They also have discount specials during the week. Great selection of cigars & hookah from which to choose. Huge screen TVs for sports fans. Staff was great. Relaxed environment and it wasn’t even rowdy for a Friday night considering Manayunk is a college student hangout spot. Beware of the silly ass overly drunken college-aged patrons in the area although it is heavily patrolled by police.

I’m going to start off by saying I like the concept of the place and the décor is decent but the ventilation was pretty much nonexistent and in my opinion this place is over priced. 3 of us went for hookah and we brought 2 bottles of wine. The corking fee is $ 11 for non-members. On top of the corking fee we paid $ 5 per person for a drinking glass for the wine we brought. We go to BYOB’s all the time and have never been charged a glass renting fee on top of a corking fee. Our total bill was around $ 50. The sign out front said if I check in on Unilocal we would get 20% off our bill. We were then told 2 of us had to check in to get the discount. This didn’t make sense to us but we obliged. When the bill came there was no discount added. We made the waitress aware of the issue. Lastly my friend and I split the bill on our credit cards. We signed our receipts and were on our way. I didn’t realize until the following day when my card was declined while paying for lunch that I had been given someone else’s credit card. I promptly canceled my card not knowing who had it. I checked my bank account and noticed Smoke had charged the entire bill to my card as well as half the bill to my friends. I went back to Smoke where I met the owner(who was very nice) and explained to him the situation. He couldn’t credit my card since it was canceled. Once I got my new card I went back and was credited the difference. I think if Smoke improved their ventilation and worked on their pricing it would be a solid place.

I’ve been here a few times and I have to say it’s a really cool and relaxed place to hang out. Owner and staff are very friendly and welcoming. Great selection of cigars. I was new to hookah before walking in and they definitely gave awesome recommendations. Atmosphere has always been chill and there is plenty of space and seating so you never feel crowded on busy nights. For those complaining about BYOB fees — you’d be paying if you were out at another place anyway so support local and small business! Overall great place to come and relax with friends or even get away by yourself for a bit…

I can’t say enough good things about this place. From the moment you walk in the ‘chill’ vibes and unique décor are an immediate joy. This is where you go to enjoy a superior tobacco product in a laid back environment filled with a number of awesome personalities. A great addition to the area!

Okay, first I love this spot… the owner is a very cool dude… love the big screens(he even has Chromecast!)…nice, a real lounge… …BUT… …at one point is was my «go-to» spot but as all good things must come to an end… …I can understand the«BYOB Bottle Fee» after all, he has to keep the lights on and AC/heat going… I didn’t even mind paying a bit more for sodas and such… but the last time I was in there, I got hit for $ 5.50 for a glass with ice… …I thought myself a regular, I came in regularly, brought a number of friends there,(would formerly) leave money there on account… always purchased the sticks I smoked there, there… so $ 5.50 for a glass with ice stung and felt personal… …It’s cool enough to still recommend, I will even return when the cold weather sets in and I have fewer options to enjoy a good stick, but just recognize, deep pockets will be needed…

Service is great and so are their selections of cigars/hookah. The ambiance is industrial trendy and comfortable to the point where you won’t want to leave. Love the cherry popper hookah!

I would frequent another cigar spot in the city, but since this place opened around the corner… it’s my new cigar spot. Not a lot of glitz, but it’s not some dingy room with old furniture. Nice open lay out with a well stocked humidor. The best quality is the staff. They seem to genuinely appreciate your business which makes you wanna come back and support. Also, you can bring your own bottle. Pay a small fee for some ice and glasses and hang out. Can’t wait for football season to roll back around, because this is a great spot to go and catch a game.
