Ritz London Cigars

Had a great time in the Cigar lounge, service and cigar choice was excellent and drinks were really good. Overall had a very good evening and have very fond memories of the place.

Highly recommend for all cigar fans. It was a great experience

Mauro the maître d’ was phenomenal service, class act true gentleman from Sardinia Italy. Yes the cigars are way over priced but if you truly want to experience a brand new classic style of cigar Bar, that’s is styled from the classic era of the 1920’s go there and except the challenge. They have the classic cigars. You must buy one to sit in this place. I would go back even though it was a bit out of my price range. Buy hey you were at “The Ritz” Smoking a cigar. The real cigar room is down stairs and requires a membership I believe where Churchill himself dwelled. Wouldn’t that be great to visit in the late 1930’s ? Thank you Mauro for a wonderful time.

Cigars are great, even as a novice. The staff are very helpful and contribute to the experience a lot making it very enjoyable. Also a good place to relax and smoke a cigar while enjoying a drink.

A very welcoming lounge for Cigars lovers, place is well organized and looks very good. The lounge has a variety of Cuban Cigars selection but we ordered the Ritz Cigars which is their signature products, pricing acceptable service is exceptionally perfect as the staff are so polite and organized. Highly recommend for all cigar fans who visit London, this place is a must try.

Love it here

Spent time in the lounge, very nice. Good selection of smokes and whiskys. Staff is attentive and the atmosphere is relaxing. Beware the dress code, they will send you away! No trainers. Jacket preferred.

Be prepared to pay an eye-watering sum for even the cheapest cigars here, naturally. But quite worth it; there is no similar smoking experience in London, or anywhere else in Europe, as far as I know. One thing I will say is that I was somewhat disheartened to find that customers were allowed in wearing jeans and t-shirts; a previous reviewer here remarked that there was a dress-code in effect, but it doesn't seem to have been enforced on the day of my visit. The last thing one wants is, after putting on his suit and tie, to be forced to share the space with persons who haven't made a similar - quite modest - effort. There is an unlimited supply of top-notch coffee available, served in achingly pretty ware. One can also order from the famous bar, but the wine starts at around eighteen pounds by the glass. Still, nothing better than a good cigar but a good cigar and drink!

Giuliano and Mauro are the absolute best! They make every day at the cigar bar exciting and comfortable and have made the cigar lounge my favourite part of the Ritz. Apart from good cigars, smooth tea blends and the perfect cappuccino, they are the most important part of the Ritz Cigars brand and have much to offer the hotel in the future.

Churchill's favorite cigar bar. You can smoke best cigars and UK history

Conceived as a casual and more democratic alternative to the members only and jackets required cigar lounge downstairs by the Ritz Club, the new Ritz Cigar Bar is a welcome and much needed and welcome addition to cigar bars in London where you can have a civilized smoke indoors - as nature intended ... The location is unbeatable and you can enter the lounge from Piccadilly Road which allows you to avoid being given the once over by the all so proper doorman if you dared to walk through the hotels main entrance with anything less than a blazer. There is a small but more than adequate humidor and a room whose imperial yellow colour palette is potentially the owners grudging nod to the ever growing importance and affluence of their Chinese clientele; throw in the prominently framed Chinese Calligraphy denoting the hotels in name in Mandarin on the main wall of the cigar bar and you might well imagine how a well heeled cigar puffing Chinese oligarch who prefers wearing Plein to Kilgour may find this to be a very convivial room to be discussing his next multi billion dollar scheme. White jacketed waiters discreetly serve you drinks and light your cigars and once in a while you might catch a glimpse of the hotels famous owners puffing quietly in corner by themselves. Cigars are well maintained and the cigar sommelier may gently persuade you to try the hotels house brand which isn’t bona fide Cuban but he claims smokes and tastes like exactly a Cohiba Behike...but remember this is England and there is no such thing as your money back if you aren’t satisfied policy at the legendary Ritz! Prices are steep but there is a price to pay for having the privilege of smoking at the Ritz if you cannot be bothered to dress to impress...

Exceptional service and experienced cigar staff..

Wonderful selection of cigars
