Found a cool shop in Hampton Beach, NH

Subvet642 · 07-30-2017, 06:15 AM

Yesterday, the wife and I went to Hampton Beach, NH as part of our 22nd anniversary weekend and we found a shop on the beach called Just Cigars. It was a small shop with a pretty good selection considering it's only open three months a year, during the summer season. I had brought some CC's with me but they were still in the car so I picked up a Baccarat Bonita, a little 4½ X 30 stick 'cause I was with the wife and we wanted to do a little shopping, drinking and arcade stuff. They had a little smoking area on the covered boardwalk area, so I sat there with Bob, the guy running the shop; very cool guy! It was the first NC I've smoked in quite a while and it was tasty as hell so I went back in and picked-up a fiver. As I was paying for that, I spotted another, smaller case with some Ligas; Flying Pigs, Feral Flying Pigs, Papas Fritas and Dirty Rats. The wife insisted I get a Dirty Rat, as I haven't even seen one in years. Bob threw in a Papas Fritas as a gift. Bob told me that in Hampton, you can smoke anywhere outside; even bars and stuff, as long as it's open to the outside and the people running it don't mind.

I made it back to the car to retrieve my CC's so on my way back in that direction I gave Bob one of the LFdC's I brought with me. I have no connection with the shop but if you're ever in Hampton Beach, stop in; it's a great place to smoke, people watch and look at the waves.

Here's a link to their web page:

I don't get up that way often but I'll file this away for the future. Sounds like a cool place!

Wow, that looks great. Thanks for sharing, Darren.

Thanks Darren. NH is a great cigar state because of low taxes. I'll check it out sometime.

I have been to this place many times, my inl-aws have a house there. Always very friendly.
There is a great tiki bar about 2 blocks down on the boardwalk called Bernies Beach bar, great roof deck overlooking the ocean for the sunset and a smoke.

I love tiki bars! I know I've seen it but I don't know why I didn't check it out. I will next time.

That sounds a good shop. Only needing to visit when they are open.

I checked it out this Saturday and you were right; it's a very cool place!
