I truly enjoyed this lounge. At first, I wasn’t sure I’d fit in since I haven’t been to many larger cigar lounges, but this place exceeded my expectations. The staff was extremely attentive, the cigar selection was vast, and the pricing was surprisingly good for such a luxury-style atmosphere. The humidor was well lit, organized, and clean. I liked that they didn’t allow people in with lit cigars, which kept the space neutral and prevented other cigars from being tainted. The drinks were excellent, and the service was top-notch Monica and the rest of the team made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. You can even order food from nearby restaurants and have it delivered directly to your seat. The members concierge, Ethan, clearly knows his cigars. One small thing I noticed was that when some newcomers came in asking about sweeter or infused options, the guidance was mostly just a quick point to the flavored section. It wouldn’t hurt to highlight some solid starter choices like the Drew Estate ACID Blondie, Tabak Especial, or Deadwood line (“Sweet Jane,” “Fat Bottom Betty”) so people don’t feel lost or end up grabbing at random. To his credit, when I asked for his recommendation from the non-infused side, you could instantly see his expertise. His pick of the week/month was spot-on I was truly happy with it. That moment really showed his knowledge and passion for cigars. All in all, this is a fantastic lounge with great prices, an impressive selection, excellent service, and even live music that set the mood perfectly. Definitely one of the best cigar lounges in Missouri. 👏

Great place to relax with friends and make new ones! Service is always outstanding and welcoming. Need a cigar recommendation, they've got you covered. How about a great old fashioned, mixed drink, wine or beer? This is the place for you. Check out Lit for your favorite sports on TV, a casual stop before a big event, or date night. You will be glad you did!

We love the ambiance of Lit. It's nice to sit and enjoy and cigar and cocktail and talk. Employees are very helpful in suggesting cigars, we have also gone in to just buy cigars and enjoy them elsewhere.

Lit Cigar Lounge, strong drinks, leather-bound comfy chairs, and people blowing smoke in more ways than one. I walked in knowing about as much about cigars as I do about quantum mechanics. Luckily my buddy Timmy, resident aficionado and official member at Lit, had me covered. I got a little crash course on how to pick a cigar, how to cut it, and how to light it. Naturally, the place gave big Mad Men energy but minus the misogyny and definitely better air filters. I wouldn’t say I’m a cigar expert at this point, but I look like less of a clown blowing smoke.

I quit smoking 40 years ago, but when I was invited to a business meeting at LIT Cigar Lounge, and was assured that their ventilation system keeps the smoke odor way down, I accepted the invite. It turned out to be a good experience. There is a lot of business conducted there! You can sit at a bar, or you can spread out away from everyone else. The seating is varied and very comfortable. For those who come to indulge, they have an astounding variety of well maintained cigars. For those, like me, who don't, they have a good variety of draft and bottled beers, and a large variety of bourbons, whiskeys, etc. As to the smoke and odor levels, you could see the smoke visibly being drawn upwards by their excellent ventilation system, so it can't be too bad. I've lost my sense of smell, so I'm no judge, but I can say that my wife didn't complain or comment on cigar odors when I got home after spending two hours there. I'd happily visit this place again!
