Ultimately, what was your impression of the place and the clientele? Usually, since cigar and pipe smoking is something of a luxury, most of these places put an emphasis on higher-end drinks as well.. (nothing goes so well with a good Opus X as a nice dram of Balvenie Double Wood).. if it seems like the kind of place you'd be comfortable watching your Rangers beat the snot out of my pathetic Mariners, if you go back a few times, I imagine you'll find some decent company amongst the knuckledraggers.
