Alright, alright, I'll give up the name of the place. And seriously, we've been there tons of times and never had any reason to complain so I'm sure we'll be going back. I just won't be sharing cigars with anyone in the joint.

And the fish 'n chips are incredible; they are known city-wide to be the best. Even doused with a ton of malt vinegar the way I like it, the crispy shell (resembling almost cobweb-like) remains well, crispy, the fish, always perfectly tender. The orders come in queen or king-size (1 or 2 pieces) and come with a full plate of awesome fries to boot. There's a nice bar in the back of the restaurant and good-sized authentic pub up front complete with two dartboards. Beer selection is very good. Ambience in both the restaurant & the pub is great.

Luckily, I stopped caring what others think about (what I think) are good cigars. This makes it easier for me to avoid any strangers weird behavior at my expense.

Remove any boogie remnants, give a quick blaze to each end, and enjoy your "mediocre" cigars.

Let's go get some fish 'n chips and fuggitabout it!
Very good point; I certainly won't make the same mistake again. And man, I'm getting hungry...

Thank you Shawn, I've been dying to know.

Take a couple sticks you don't want, dip the feet in Tabasco, then go back to the same joint and get the same chap's opinion.

Ahhhh yes, I have driven by there before, even remarking "that place looks awesome!"

I will definitely have to head down there for some fish n chips, but not for any cigar evaluations!

Re: somebody shoved MY cigars up THEIR nose & gave them back to me!
I must admit that if I had this happen to me, the look on my face would have stopped a cattle drive. And I would have laid into him. But I'm a germaphobe. That's why I burn tobaccos and not suck on them

I do like the idea of the Tabasco cigars though.


Last thing, this thread (while very serious regarding etiquette) has been highly entertaining in the responses. Too funny

Well, you were stupid and a braggart enough to flash your precious cigar around at the bar so that people can take notice of "Mr. Cigar, the BIG SHOT"... You got what was coming to you...

Not sure I agree with you at all. The conversation I had with the manager turned to cigars. The fellow mentioned he used to be in the biz. It was a natural transition in conversation; I honestly wanted to know if he had ever had them and what he thought of them. If I were bragging, I would have whipped them out, as you imply I did, at the onset of conversation (which I certainly did not) and they would have been Stradavarii not $10 smokes.

Re: somebody shoved MY cigars up THEIR nose & gave them back to me!
Are you serious David?! That’s totally uncalled for. I can’t believe someone would do that to a cigar period….just plain wrong. Well, luckily you only showed him two cigars. Imagine if you had brought more.

I am surprised Santa Monica still allows cigars to be brought into the city limits with all of the Draconian anti-smoking laws they have there. Are you sure you didn’t have to smuggle them?

Anyway, sorry to hear that…..it sucks.
