San Diego - B&M needed!

I will be there and will have NOTHING to do after 5pm. Any good B&Ms down there or suggestions as to what to do that night? Looking for a B&M to have a smoke

    When you gonna be there? A friend of mine is a rep in the area and will know all the good spots. Can probably make some introductions for you, too.

    Churchill's in the Miramar area has beers on tap and a good selection of sticks. I haven't been there in awhile, but it was nice from what I can remember. I don't have James40's contact info, but he is local and could probably recommend others.

    Churchill's is the place to be. I'll send James a text and see if he'll chime in on here for you.

    I really like CC Factory. When I go down to North Island to go on the ship it's pretty much a staple place to visit. Should be really nice on a Tuesday.

    Can recommend a bunch of good places to eat too :)

    El Indio...Killer Mexican, really cheap, the taquitos are badass

    Churchill's is the first place I was thinking of, but wanted to confirm. From my buddy:

    "Churchills Miramar is great if you want beer and wine, Excalibur Clairemont Mesa full bar, Liberty Tobacco no Alchol, Cuban Cigar Factory everything and in the heart of Gaslamp! 4 good choices depending on what you want."

    Man... If I had more than 24 hours in San Diego I would hit all those places.

    http://habanoslounge.net/ - This is where Asianbiker (forum member) and I go (he turned me on to it). They have some food, a coffee bar, and sometimes live music. I've met both owners who are really down to earth and cool -

    Excaliber in Clairemont Mesa is good, they have food most times and there's tons of food nearby. Good liquor selection, however, seating is limited so get there early. They do hold lots of events too so check their calendar. http://www.excaliburcigarlounge.com/

    Churchills in Miramar is super lush and the owner is cool there. Traffic can be a pain depending on when you go. There's also a Churchills in Old Town (just north of downtown). It's small but has an outdoor patio and 2-3 beer selection. Their humidor is lacking since it's so small but you can find something. http://www.churchillcigarlounge.com/

    Their house blend was the first real cigar I had and what sparked me into this journey. The last time I went to Cuban cigar factory, they wanted $27 for a Camacho Triple Maduro. I left shaking my head after looking at the other prices. This was a couple of years ago so things might have changed. It's in the gaslamp, near my work, so there's tons of things to do and see here. Parking will be your biggest concern (pay lot vs. meters).http://shop.cubancigarfactory.com/

    Racine and Laramie in Old Town is the oldest B&M around. If you want that trading post type atmostphere (tiny smoking room - 2-4 chairs inside, not sure of outside), that's the place for you. Old Town has tons of Mexican food if you like that as well. http://www.racineandlaramie.com/

    There's one more but I can remember the name. If you want to meet up, let me know man.

    Excalibur on Friday the 5th is having a Woodford bourbon, Caldwell cigars, and Lagunitas beer event. You might seriously consider making that if it interests you. If so, get there an hour early to try and get a seat.

    Shoot man...I've heard guys take a five minute walk across the border to the TJ LCDH. It is on my bucket list this next summer for sure. A good friend of mine goes to Liberty and swears by the pricing and selection.
