I recently came to Wilmington for business for the week. I was looking around for a place to smoke since it's obviously not very warm in January and came across Sikar. I originally talked to Raj the owner over email before coming in.
The lounge is really nice. They have a liqour license and tons of liqour and some beer/wine to choose from. They were running a deal for a free night's membership (Monday's) and a 10 dollar Rocky Patel/ Stella Artois combo. I had the co-owner, Larry I believe, recommend me a cigar. Let me just say I was impressed. Alot of lounges will seemingly blindly recommend the more expensive cigars but that wasn't an issue. I had two there that night and both were excellent cigars I hadn't tried before.
It's really a great place.
Great selection - I really had no problems finding tons of different cigars I knew I already liked and getting recommended for some new ones.
Great people - Everyone was very friendly (the owners and patrons). I happened to meet someone I'd never met before and ended up talking about this and that over cigars and hookah for a couple hours.
They offer hookah. - They have at least a few hookah's in house and you can smoke right there. It's nice being able to find a place that offer's hookah's as well as cigars.
Great ventilation - This is really a plus. Nothing is worse than smoking indoors and barely being able to see. I love cigars but I don't need to live in the smoke for a few hours.
Comfy atomsphere - Furniture and people made it very nice.
All in all a great place to visit if you live nearby or just happen to be nearby.
Excellent cigar lounge. The interior is comfortable and clean, often with interesting and relaxing music to add to the atmosphere. Much respect to the Cigar concierge. I only stop in once every other week or so and he remembers enough about what I bought to recommend new types of cigars I'd enjoy. Also, he is excellent at cutting a cigar to get a nice draw. Even with the same brand of cigar one he was able to tell he needed to loosen up while the other just needed a small punch. Both drew perfectly. Been lots of cigar places and haven't experienced such in depth knowledge of tweaking cigars to perfection before.
Review Source:Sikar Lounge is a very classy cigar lounge in Trolley Square, Wilmington, DE. It is extremely clean, and the product is fresh. I enjoyed a cigar, watched golf, and Willy was very cordial and helpful to me. If you are a novice (myself), to an aficionado you will enjoy Sykar Lounge. A great get away to enjoy a fine cigar.
