Carlo Rose Cigar Bar & Lounge

Brought to you by the same people who run the hookah bar next door - so you know it's gotta be good before you even walk through the door. There's not much competition for it anywhere unless you go up to Manchester or down to Boston.

I don't know much about cigars, but I know that they have four cabinets of cigars you can choose from. You can smoke what you buy there, and I think for a limited time only you can bring in your own cigars. I'm not sure if they're going to do hookahs in the future, but I wasn't able to get one when I came. Aside from that, they've got a pretty sweet ventilation system to keep the air clear.

This bar is the long awaited answer to the super-small-four-seat-bar they have at next door. There are currently 8 drafts to select from (most notably the Angry Orchard Cider, and the Guinness), and a handful of hard liquors available to make the usual drinks.

Oh yeah, and there's a pool table.

Go here on the weekend if you're looking for something more upscale than a dive, but not as crazy as a club. I know where I'm going for St. Patrick's Day 2013.
