Welcome along. Are you based North or South of the river?

Just South of the river, but not by much. I see the River Thames every time I look up from my keyboard.

Welcome to the forum mate. 10 Manchester Street is a lovely place for a smoke but had a 20 odd quid minimum charge per person when I went. I think you can take your own smokes but I had a P2 from their humi. That (at ?33!!) plus 2 whiskey sours and 2 kir royals ( and I think a ?10 "service charge" was a few pence short of a 100 quid.... A rare treat!

Boisedale in canary wharf have a nice comfortable cigar terrace. Wouldn't say I'm a regular but go at least every couple of months they do great Sunday lunch and if you like live music a good show and evening meal.

But it's a soulless place. I'm based there during the week. They have the indoor sampling lounge too which is nicer. I think the lounge you can only smoke/sample what you buy. The terrace is just an outdoor area so anything goes IIRC [emoji317] :headbang1:

True the indoor sampling room is for sampling what is purchased from them, however I was there a couple of Saturday's ago and there was a Jamaican BBQ and DJ with an old school Reggie set on the Terrace. Most enjoyable evening.

I went to another Boisedale for dinner to celebrate with my wife, it was a very nice evening but we didn't go upstairs for cigars.
London is a great city, but I would enjoy a lot more cigars if I could enjoy a puff in a nice back yard, of a balcony overlooking the ocean.

Hello and welcome. Good to have another Londoner in our midst!

If you're ever Mayfair way, all of the big hotels all have cigar terraces that are nice, you should be okay to bring your own stick if you have a drink

Thanks for the advice.

Hi Silk & Welcome onboard! Was the 'other' Boisdale' in Belgravia, near Victoria Station? If so that is Ecclestone St & is my fav. The roof top terrace is covered, buildings protect from the wind & there is overhead heating & blankets for the wife, I smoke my own & beer is the same as elsewhere in London so a cheap as you'll get unless you're actually in a pub garden. If it's a celebration, they have some fine sticks of their own but they will be pricy of course. Not too bad for a single but I'd can't imagine why some people buy boxes there. If I could afford the box price, I'd get a day ticket to Geneva & have a fun day out bring back the legal limit & still have change!

I do get to pass through London en-route to work, if you can every make Kings Cross for an early lunch time, I'd love to share a smoke, I'll bring the cigars.
