I'm visiting with the band Portugal The Man doing a show next door I'm their truck driver. The crew guys told me about the Owl Shop and I just had to visit being a cigar and coffee guy and I was not disappointed!!! The ladies on staff were so welcoming and helpful and made me the best mocha latte!! Made my visit here perfect! My gratitude to them I'll be back at load out for another round!! If you love history and good coffee or bourbon and cigars it's a must visit in New Haven!! Sincerely, Greg

Love it here. I don't smoke personally but my boyfriend does and I've tried some of the tobacco they have, it's smooth and goes light. Plus, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, live music for free! Their drinks are also amazing and their dirty martini is the way to go! Also the nutty Irishman is delicious! Staff is polite and very attentive. Love coming here!

If you haven't gone to Owl Shop and smoked a fat cigar with one of their signature cocktails, you haven't lived.

God I love this place. Where else can you sit down in a great atmosphere with a wonderful staff and enjoy a coffee with Baileys while enjoying a cigarette.

The best cigar bar so far in CT. Nothing like Club Mac in NYC or Davidoff RIP. The layout is this, the posers are more in the front of the bar, date nights in the middle- maybe posers as well not definitive; if you only have 1 cigar and one 1 drink undisputedly a poser. Back are the cigar aficionados; we are watching you and laughing in our silence. Great food for a cigar bar. Libations are vast and tandem with cigars. Definitely a place to go.

It's a cigar bar. It's not bad inside even if you don't smoke. Very good ventilation. They make coffee, tea, iced too, and to go. Got good selection of bourbons, draft beers.At first we didn't want to be inside bu

A great cigar bar! They have a really good whiskey selection, to include a few barrel picks, which is always nice. The cigars are well curated and stored, the staff is great. Above all else, it has a quiet and relaxed atmosphere with the requisite dim lighting and leather furniture, exactly what you'd want it to have. It's been a "must visit" for me on my trips to the area.

What a fantastic experience we had smoking cigars and enjoying libations at The Owl Shop!The Owl Shop has a great selection of well kept moderately priced cigars. We went for the Maduros.A fantastic bar stacked with fine wines and spirits and a knowledgeable staff to give you guidance on your pairings.Old school style with modern comfort. Whether your a cigar aficionado… or just want to have a great time sharing a stogie with friends, The Owl Shop is the place to go!

The Owl Shop is one of my two favorite places to be. I'm a cigar smoker, and I drink beer. All of the staff is excellent, and all of the prices are good. I go enough to hear many great things from other patrons. I've even heard someone say that they dislike bourbon, but they couldn't believe how good the Old Fashion was. They ordered a second. I could go on forever talking about all of the great things about this place. It is also historic, and if you are ever in the area you should stop by. I even recommend going out of your way at least once to experience the Shop. You won't be disappointed.

Warning: You will smell strongly of smoke after visiting here. I love this place! Men and women enjoy smoking pipes, cigars, and cigarettes drinking a fine collection of cocktails, wine, bourbon and rye before or after dining at nearby establishments. Quiet place to read or just loud enough to spend with friends on a rainy afternoon among the leather chairs, plush couches, and wood panel walls. This isn't a cigar lounge with plain walls, TVs and leather chairs: this place has character (and a bar). Apizza available if you want a snack. I wish I knew of more places like this!

Where have you been all my life. I just love retro spots like this. Nice music playing at a low volume inside. Everyone was very friendly. Had a panini it was very good. Pretty much all of them come with prosciutto or some other delicious Italian meats. They allow smoking I'm a non smoker and wasn't bothered by it all, nice ventilation. Can't wait to go back.

Excellent spot! Good drinks, decent eats. Leather couches, armchairs, bar seating and tables with barstools! I absolutely love that this place exists. A true gem for smokers. Vast cigar selection, always something new to try!
