Any B&M's or Cigar Bars near Union Square, NYC?

[longash]

Brother gorillas, anyone familiar with NYC know of a B&M or cigar-friendly bar near Union Square?

I'm taking the train in this Saturday (10/4) with my son and we're gonna hit the Apple Store and the Virgin Records Mega Store plus get some lunch.

I'm not familiar with the city and I'll just being figuring out how to get from Penn Station to the stores and back.

I checked the Location by State threads, but didn't see anything.

Thanks in advance.

The Nat Sherman store is pretty close to Penn--right around the corner from bryant park and the library. If you are by little italy, check out Three Little Indians -- Great place; has some excellent food as well.

Thanks for the replies.

Since Apple has several NYC stores, I guess I should specify that we are heading to the one at 401 West 14th Street.

I'm only doing that because the Virgin store is only a couple of blocks away on Broadway and we can hit them both.


Okay, scratch what I said. I've changed plans and decided we'll hit the Virgin store on Times Square (sounds bigger) and the Apple store on 5th Ave between 58th and 59th streets.

So, with the change in plans, dunng's post about the Davidoff store is relevant. Thanks dunng!

Anywhere we could eat lunch and enjoy a stick or two between Times Square and 5th and 58th?

My bad... the one on 5th is pretty cool though!

I have not been to this lounge yet, but from the reviews, it seems a bit small. The location is near Union Square Enjoy your time in the big apple. Make sure to check out Venieros for desert.

I'm making this harder for you guys than it needs to be. Sorry.

Wish I could edit the thread title.

Haven't been here yet but check out the Carnegie Club:

http://newyork.citysearch.com/profil...egie_club.html

They have cigars (being a cigar bar), live music (at nights), and some food. Like I said, haven't been there yet so check out the details. I know when they have music at nights they have a cover charge but likely don't during the day.
