Boston peoples

Neens · 01-07-2011, 12:53 PM

Heading up to Boston with a group for a friends birthday and was looking for some info on stanza dei sigari. Is it worth going to or is there a better place around we should check out? I'm still going to have to sell the group on the idea because some arnt smokers but I know at least a few of us will sneak away if we have to.

(I didn't put this in the herf section because I didn't think it belonged there but if a mod wants to move it fine by me.)

stanza is nice but if you get a window seat at Cigar Masters that can be better..

jmsremax · 01-07-2011, 01:09 PM

Stanzas is good, but expensive. If you like liquor with your smokes then Stanzas is your only option.

Victory in Sudbury.

Jen works there.

It's possible I could be hit with a restraining order, but it would be worth it.

Wait ... Boston, right. Stanzi is more expensive and laid back. CM has a cooler vibe IMHO, but can come across as a little snooty.

Stanza is the only cigar bar in Boston that serves hard alcohol and you could convince the group to have cigars then go out for a dessert (vice versa) or late night treat in the North End. Heck, you could take a cab to Chinatown for cheap too.

The seats are pushed back a little, but you can still catch some eye candy strolling by.

Btw, Shaq has a locker at Stanzas....it would be awesome to be catch him in there.

If the Celtics are playing a home game, perhaps he'd show up an hour after the game? Where does Shaq live? I thought he bought something in Dover?

Sudbury

This might be hard to answere but how over priced is it? Like if I want a bottle beer how much is it going to cost me?

jmsremax · 01-07-2011, 02:49 PM

I can't recall if they serve beer at stanzas. I've only been twice and none of us got beer either visit. I will tell you that one stick (which runs about $5-6 per stick at most B&Ms) plus 2 crown and gingers cost me $35ish.

Alcohol is pretty in line with bar prices. Cigar prices are quite high.

Neens · 01-07-2011, 03:00 PM

So a $10 stick everywhere else is what $15?

spivy · 01-07-2011, 03:04 PM

padron 64s are in the 20 range. Opus X is 75

But I have not bought a cigar there...ever

I'd say they are double what most B&Ms charge.

TheStatsGuy · 01-07-2011, 03:13 PM

If you go bring your own and just pay the cutting fee.

mosesbotbol · 01-07-2011, 10:07 PM

Booze at Stanza is regular on the high side. I never bought a cigar there. Can't recall if there was a cutting fee. In this climate, who care if there's cutting fee? Seems like a rare event to just smoke in a public setting in this day and age.

massphatness · 01-08-2011, 06:42 AM

The few times I've been, the bar bill has been sufficient to have them waive the cutting fee.
