A very nice cigar lounge. They treated me as a regular after second time coming in. I think they just need to work on ventilation a bit, it can get Smoky if crowded.

I am a little confused and disappointed here. The person I spoke to on the phone said the lounge was open to visitors I guess she should explain this to the regulars. I came to spend a couple hours of quality time - and smoke a couple good cigars. Instead, I smoked part of one and took the rest to go.
There were no less than 6 people around me. Multiple come in, and systematically greet one after the other Maybe I'm invisible and don't know it?
It was all side eye and the culture was toxic. I don't need to come back for more evidence.

Buffet for the civilized. Almost 200? cigars on menu. Also as many adult beverages +/- a few. If you can not decide, they offer flights. New favorite place in North America. Be back soon Kate (server name Pinky :)

A+ location for a tourist to DC. It is being run properly, the service was solid, the food is more than acceptable bar food. Most importantly, the cigar list was on point, and my group of 6 guys all purchased at least one- and they all were fresh like they were just rolled. The members werent snobby, and there was a surprising ratio of women dining while I was there (in a good way).

I've been coming to Shelly's a couple times a year for the last 15 years. Always a warm and inviting atmosphere for a good stogie and a single malt.

Great place to go to enjoy a cigar, whisky and a good meal. You can take your own cigars or purchase from them. There's always some type of sports on the tv's. There is a minimum of $30 per person you must spend, which is well worth it.
Always a great atmosphere to relax smoke a cigar catch a game and eat some tasty food

Even though the cigar was a bit overpriced, the environment was perfect.

A must-visit for any cigar fan visiting DC. The place is dripping with character and history. Prices are indeed high, and thereās a minimum, but the drinks menu is extensive (I didnāt try the food) and thereās service was fantastic.

Great place for a drink and a smoke. HUUUUGE collection of whiskeys and smokes. Highly recommend. We went on a Tuesday night around 11pm and it was very light. Staff was very attentive until we started slowing down then they disappeared.
