4. Churchill's Cigars and Elixirs

This is a wonderful bar where you can hobnob with the who's who of Baton Rouge or lose yourself in a wonderful cigar and a wide selection of scotch. The staff is as knowledgeable as they are friendly, greeting everyone with a smile and a wealth of useful information.

I don't go to the Club Room very often, but the guys up front know exactly what I want as soon as I show up. The entire staff is extremely knowledgeable, and they will gladly let you know whatever you can possibly imagine about anything in their store. The selection is excellent, the staff is conversational and courteous, the store is immaculate. All in all, it is definitely one of my reasons for wanting to live in Baton Rouge.

The perfect "After-5" spot. It's a place where everyone knows your name, yet you can slip inside your own little world by listening to the musicians, enjoying a nice drink or watching a game on one of the televisions in the facility. This is definitely Baton Rouge's best watering hole and cigar bar.
