Edward's Pipe & Tobacco Shop

For more than fifty years, Edward's Pipe & Tobacco Shop has been doing one thing and doing it right in Englewood, Colorado. This is an old-world tobacconist in the truest sense, the kind of shop with genuine tobacciana decor, an estate case full of treasures, and back lounges where you can settle in and actually enjoy what you came for. Ask anyone who shops here and they'll tell you it feels like stepping into a place that's refused to go out of style. Pipe people in particular consider this a destination. Locals will tell you it holds the best pipe tobacco selection anywhere in the Denver metro area, from aged Virginias to house blends like Drury Lane.

The pipe wall runs deep too, with briars, meerschaums, and names like Ashton, Larsen, and Missouri Meerschaum turning up in the cases. First-timers get the same care as longtime hands. We've heard story after story of someone walking in curious about their first briar and leaving with a pipe that fit both their budget and their taste, guided every step of the way. The cigar side holds its own as well, with a selection regulars call genuinely great and a peaceful lounge out back, plus a little Cigarden by the rear entrance. The names folks mention around here are Doc, Dan, and Nick.

Doc especially comes up again and again, known for his knowledge, his patience, and, as more than one person has pointed out, a kick-ass beard. The community of guys who gather here day to day is part of the draw, with good conversation easy to come by. Prices stay competitive, and people appreciate that this is a real tobacconist rather than a generic smoke shop. Now, we'll be honest: it's a tight-knit spot, and not every visitor has felt the warmth right away. The overwhelming word around Englewood is that this is one of the finest pipe and cigar shops in the state, and plenty of newcomers have walked out saying they'll be regulars for the rest of their years.

There are front and back entrances, with the front off S Broadway. If you take tobacco seriously, this is a must.
