Stopped in tonight with 2 buddies and no one greeted us, we spent a long time in the humidor and no one came in to explain anything …. The establishment is very nice but no customer service and the guy who checked us out didn’t wanna answer any questions about the cigars they had!! Highly disappointed in this establishment!!! Won’t be back !!!
Very nice staff and customers. I went in nervously to buy cigars as a gift for someone and everyone was very helpful and nice. I have no knowledge of cigars and the staff kindly assisted me with picking out the cigars.
Been buying cigars from Manny (and Pepe) for over a year now. I have settled on two of my favorite now. What impressed me the most was I emailed them and a couple of days later I got an unknown call from a Texas City number. When I answered the caller said “Hey Roger this is Manny with El Cubano Cigars”. I said yea right. He said no really. I’m thinking the owner calls me. You don’t get service like that anymore. Talked with Manny but it was a couple of months before I traveled to League City where I met Pepe. Super nice guy. Been buying ever since. Got to meet Manny the second time I was In League City. He said yeah you’re the South Texas cowboy I talk to on the phone. Super gentleman also. Great selection of handmade cigars. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Give them a try.
I didn't know what to expect, but it would have something to do with cigars. I was finally able to venture over to check out this establishment. I chuckled as I walked up and saw a vintage car parked outside. Good sign. As I entered a pretty blonde was seated near the door and smiled a hello. I thought "well, if it's got to end like this...could be worse?" as I looked for the jealous lover pointing his pistol at my heart, the shot never came, so I did the next best thing...check their humidor. The humidor interior was retrofitted and was simply high end manly, with straightforward wood shelves and some polished metal. It was clean, cigars were neatly stacked, bundled or in a box. The guy at the counter said they have rollers at their other location and recommend a traditional "Cuban sandwhich" smoke. Note: they don't carry any other cigars, but their own. I purchased the smoke and I'm looking forward to what these guys have produced. Another note, about the interior, it looks like the shop was an old building with great natural lighting and a cool room temperature that was maybe a car repair shop or butcher shop, again added to the subdued manly cool factor (did you see the photo of the vintage car in the parking lot). But, the rest of the interior was like a fishing cabin or small lodge you & your buddies met up at to smoke and swap lies. Great low black leather chairs and low tables to sit your things. Didn't, notice any flatscreens, I think this place was about face to face communication, smoking good local handrolled cigars and being a place where men gather. Speaking of which, as I entered I noticed a gathering of men of a certain age having a smoke and back slapping. It looked like they were regulars. I definitely will stop in again when I have time to drive to League City. I especially liked their lounge wasn't private. So, drop in to see these guys and you'll thank me.
Awesome lounge tucked away down in league city. Big bay doors for air flow if needed. Plenty of leather seating and friendly atmosphere. Astros playoffs on a large TV. This is a very social lounge, everyone knows everyone and are quite friendly.
