I have been a regular at this B&M for over 6 years. It is my home. The owners wanted to retire so after a few weeks of discussion, I bought it. It is one of the few places left in this state that you can still enjoy a cigar with your friends inside.

I have currently closed the place down to remodel and redo the inventory. I hope to have the place back open March 1 and a grand re-opening celebration during St. Patrick's Day weekend, Saturday March 16.

I invite everyone to come by and say hi and enjoy a cigar!

More information as it gets closer to launch date!
I think its will be time for a road trip to Naperville that weekend. Anyone want to ride from Indy with me?

I have few more pics to post. We had our soft open this past Friday and continue to work out some kinks with POS system; getting more inventory ordered; flat screens installed; bathroom re-done.

I hope you guys/gals can take a trip over and spend some time relaxing in some of the new big boy furniture I've setup.

I'll post some other angles.

Big GRAND OPENING this coming March 16th, 4-11PM(?); free valet and food!

I'll be posting that information in the vendor area.
