The atmosphere is great! The smell of the cigars change the flavors of wine and the book background is gorgeous. The food left a lot to be desired. Carts crackers that I can get from a grocery store and meats that come out of packaged meats from a grocery deli at a much higher price. Definitely not true charcuterie and not worth the price.

This is my favorite cigar bar in The city. It is a classy establishment that manages to feel both upscale and perfectly relaxing. Whether you’re looking to sit at the bar or tuck away into a corner of their library with a book and a cigar, the atmosphere is unmatched.
The staff here are absolutely amazing. I visit quite often with my cat, and they are always so welcoming—it has truly become our go-to spot.
My favorite cocktail is Lady Luck. 🍸
Now that the weather is nice, they opened also outdoor seating area.
If you enjoy cigars and are looking for a sophisticated yet comfortable spot in New York, this is definitely the place to be.

Nice place if you want to get a quality cigar and a great glass of Armagnac to go with.

Chill place.

Had a really good experience at Hudson Bar and Books. One of the best things about this spot is that it’s open late, which made it a great place to unwind and enjoy the night. The service was excellent, and the whiskey selection was definitely a highlight — plenty of great options if you appreciate a solid pour.

The only downside for me was the cigar smoke. If you’re sensitive to smoke, the smell and air circulation can be a bit much. That said, if you know what to expect going in, it still has a cool atmosphere and a unique vibe. Overall, a solid late-night spot with great service and a strong whiskey selection.

So thrilled to find a cozy, elegant place open late during the winter with excellent service, taste, and choice for a refined pallet. Finally a quiet place to discuss! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Solid whiskey selection, indoor smoking is sick, and the space is really cool. Great spot if you’re into a laid-back, old-school bar vibe.

Place has amazing decor but the bartender was trash. I ordered a drink and not once did he come over to check to see if I was OK ir ask if I needed anything. This was the only flaw.

This was my first time at Hudson. If you're a cigar smoker and appreciate a great whisky selection, this is your place. It's a bit spendy, and you can bring your own sticks for a cut fee, but it's just a great place to cozy up and enjoy. I'll be back for sure.

Hudson Bar and Books has a really cool, relaxed atmosphere. We stopped in on a cold night and enjoyed cigars and drinks while talking and meeting new people. It’s a cozy, intimate spot that’s perfect for unwinding and having a chill night out.
