Cigars Market & Food

Cigars Market & Food is the kind of place that does a little of everything and does it well, which is exactly why it has become such a well-loved stop along Miami Beach's Collins Ave district. Part bodega, part cafe, part cigar shop, it pulls in locals and visitors alike, and the word around Miami Beach is that once you find it, you keep coming back. For anyone here for the cigars, the staff know their stuff. We've heard they are genuinely helpful with cigar choices, walking you through the selection so you leave with something you will actually enjoy.

Pair that with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and you have a spot people describe as a nice place to chill, grab something to eat, and enjoy a quality cigar. Smoking accessories are on hand too. The rest of the shop rounds out the visit. Regulars swear by the Cuban coffee and the empanadas, and there is a solid lineup of beer, soda, energy drinks, juice, ice, and a good selection of gelato.

One person called the coconut gelato a favorite, and the fruit bars get plenty of love too. Lottery tickets are part of the daily ritual for more than a few folks who stop in every morning. Ask anyone who shops here and Yaine, also known as Yainelis, comes up fast. People talk about how kind and welcoming she is, the sort of service that turns a quick stop into a daily habit.

Add in a clean space and prices locals call very reasonable, and it is easy to see why Cigars Market & Food sits among the highest-regarded spots of its kind in the area. If you are near South Beach and looking for a cigar shop that also happens to make a great latte, this one is worth the walk.
