Castro’s Back Room

Snobby and lack of service. Extremely lazy.
A lot of there stuff looks dirty. Honestly never got to having a smoke there was just not worth trying

Ask for Dave. Great guy, will help you find what you’re looking for and go the extra mile. Comfortable spot and nice TVs all around, too.

I travel a lot. As cigar stops go this is great. Comfortable with both lounge and barber chairs. Large walk in humidor that’s well stocked. It has a bar. Prices are ok. Friendly locals who are happy to talk to out of towners.
Yes I’ll stop next time I’m in town.

Love this shop. Sticks are always fresh. Everyone is friendly and staff is knowledgeable. A must stop when riding in New Hampshire

Quiet and relaxing, comfortable and friendly. Service is always excellent, the selection of beer is perfect, comfortable furniture. Regular stop on my night out.

This is a great place to spend time.
You can chill out front in the vintage seats enjoying the ball game or go out back and drink at the bar. The staff is welcoming and the customers always friendly. A great way to spend an afternoon.

great place !!! no mass taxes.

Great Spot! VERY nice staff… I just bought a cigar locker for the rest of the year! Everything is nice, updated and CLEAN!

An excellent selection of cigars. The staff really knows their stuff and can help you choose a cigar if you are new to it or looking for something different. It has a brand new bar in the back area with a huge selection of beer and whiskey… one of the largest selections in the city. They have brand new black leather chairs also. … Its just a great place to read the paper, catch up with buddies, watch sports, have a drink and a nice cigar.

Pretty cool place to have a cigar and beer. They have a great selection of cigars and are friendly. You can sit in some comfortable chairs or when the weather is nice sit out side.

Classic Guy’s hang out! Décor is a little dated, but well worth the visit! Selection is large and lounge is very comfortable! Will return again!

kind of expensive but for downtown manch the rent must be high.

Small store but decent selection of cigars. Paul was very friendly and helpful. Half the fun is checking out all the cool stuff they have hanging on the walls. Give it a try next time you are in Manchester.

Made a visit to Castro’s on a Saturday afternoon. There were a few patrons smoking cigars on the neat barber chairs and couch watching TV. The atmosphere screams «man cave» with a dark interior, the whiff of a good cigar and the sight of the walk in humidor.
The focus of these specialty shops is cigars (of course). I’ve tried cigars in the past and will still smoke one but I prefer a pipe. I can see where cigars can be the money maker but I wish these tobacco shops would promote and expand their pipe tobacco selections. This is the main reason for the 3 stars, I’d add 1 more star if I could have a wider choice of tobacco.
The guy behind the counter was more than friendly and was able to help me pick a non aromatic Virgina pipe blend, just plain nut, which turned out to be spectacular. Pipe prices were of the normal range and the store did carry 2 kinds of pipe tools. 2oz set me back about 5 bucks which is a great deal when compared to cigars that cost dollars each. 2 oz can keep me going with 1 bowl a day for a month.
I’ll will certainly go back once I need a refill and if you are a pipe smoker, you should give it a try too.

Castro’s in Manchester is just a big olé ball of WIN! As a woman, the atmosphere of a smoke shop is so very important. It can be intimidating to the point of unwelcoming. However, nothing could be further from that at Castro’s. The place is clean, open and inviting. And the staff? Friendly and ridiculously knowledgeable. And Morgen, the usual guy behind the counter who pretty much manages the place, is a borderline savant when it comes to these hedonistic smoking sticks. There is not a brand name nor a variety he can’t remember nor tell you about in detail and every suggestion he has made for either me or my dad has been absolutely savored and enjoyed Every. Single. Time!
So if you need to purchase a cigar for someone (Christmas is just around the corner) check this place out. They’ll know exactly what to give you. And should you want to try to smoke a cigar for the first time, I can’t think of a better place to do so either. I can’t recommend the place enough!

Still not impressed. This place had a booth at the recent Chili Festival (which was awesome, by the way). I asked for 2 different (popular) brands, neither of which they had in their booth at the time. After discussing what I liked, they sold me one of «their» own name-​brand cigars, which after smoking, I really didn’t like. Their name-​brand cigar is a blended-​tobacco product that was heavy and harsh and simply not enjoyable to smoke. Stick with the name brands when shopping here, folks.

Castros is the quintessential cool cigar shop!
Now dont get me wrong they might as well spray chick repellent through the whole place with the Playboys on the coffee table, sports on the big screen tv, darts, and complete tomfoolery out back but this place is AWESOME!
Great cigars and fantastic prices and a cool place to hang out with the boys… IN MANCH-​VEGAS??? Come on…
Have fun and «Stay Thirsty My Friends»…
