Clearwater Beach Cigar Lounge

If you are looking for a cigar lounge on Clearwater Beach that feels like a proper night out, Clearwater Beach Cigar Lounge has quickly become a favorite among locals and vacationers alike. The spot took over the old Fusion Cigar and, from what we hear, came in with major upgrades. The team brought their formula over from St. Pete, and it shows. The humidor is the heart of it.

Regulars will tell you the selection is focused and well-kept, running from approachable, everyday smokes up to high-end premiums, with a few exclusive cigars you will not find just anywhere. Everything comes fresh. If you are not sure where to start, ask for a recommendation. Ryan has a real gift for matching a cigar to your taste, and the crew genuinely enjoys steering newcomers toward something they will like. What surprises a lot of people is the bar.

Word around Clearwater is that folks come in for a couple of cigars and end up staying for cocktails. The smoked old fashioned gets talked about constantly, and Lania's Añejo old fashioned and Damaris's espresso martini have earned their own loyal following. One first-timer put it well: they expected a regular cigar bar and got a whole experience instead. Kody and the rest of the crew are known for hospitality that makes you want to linger. The atmosphere lands somewhere between upscale and easygoing, classy but never stuffy.

It is well-ventilated, with an open-air bar and outdoor sections, so even non-smokers in the group tend to be comfortable. Between the friendly, knowledgeable staff, the drinks, and a solid cigar selection, this is one of the more talked-about cigar shops in Clearwater right now, and people keep saying they will be back.
