Slow Burns Cigar Shoppe & Smoking Lounge

Its front door is on an unassuming stretch of Frederick Road . . . almost like a speakeasy. With a minimum purchase of $6 a person (and they do have a few snacks, soft drinks), you can hang out in one of two comfy rooms, chock full of leather recliners. It's BYOB. Some people rent humidor lockers or the glass cabinets to store fancy liqueurs, cigars, whatever they like. Sometimes they have specials where they give away drinks with purchase. There are televisions to watch the game, etc. Upscale cigars being tended to in perfectly climate controlled conditions are for sale. A night with your own booze at Slow Burns costs a lot less than it would to head to an upscale hotel bar – the closest comparable type of destination, luxury-wise – with your group of friends. There is street and lot parking.
