The MoB used to do their Chicago herfs there, Reggie and the rest of the staff are great. Came down to space for us....on Saturdays, by the time we would arrive (often 9-10 deep), we would have to pull out folding chairs and make our own little crowded circle near the cabinets on the south side of the building. Also didn't help that they close early on Saturdays.

That being said, it is a great shop with a great staff. I prefer going during the week when you can grab a leather chair or couch seat and hang out without feeling cramped.

They close at 6PM on Saturdays, which is kind of early for the guys who trek down from Milwaukee and Madison.

We go to Ultimate in Villa Park most of the Chicago date now. Not near as nice as Cigar King, but they rarely have more than a couple people in the lounge, and they stay open until midnight. Their sister store (next store) is a liquor store so you can buy and booze you want and drink it in the lounge as well.
