Victory Bar & Cigar

I am a non smoker and this place was still great. Good, friendly crowd and good drinks. The bartenders were very helpful.

Love the cigar selection here, and they have some good bottled beers too. But the last three times I have been the barenders have put extra stuff I did not order on my tab. Nothing worse than having to sort out your tab at the end of a good night. The ventalation could be enhanced too.

I always know I can come here alone or with friend and have a great time! The staff is amazing and really stands out!!! I would recommend this place to anyone

My favorite place to frequent in Worcester. The bartender Kristin is adorable and charming and keeps the atmosphere fun! Her sidekick Kelly keeps things fresh with her cut off sleeves! Grand place, come rendezvous with your best pals and be cool.

The saff is what keeps us coming back. Great place to relax and have a great time. Kelly is our favorite bartender… but Emily, Kristen, and Anna are all amazing as well!

Very friendly staff with a great drink selection!

A great place to grab a smoke, watch the game and have a couple cocktails. The atmosphere is average, price for cigars is a bit pricey, but there’s not many other spots where you can indulge with a nice cigar inside. Bar staff was more than friendly.

Very professional and knowledgeable wait staff that are very informed on the products that they sell. I always have a great time we going to victory cigar bar, never smoked out like some cigar bars and always full attentive service.
Jesse the main bartender is the best thing thats happened to this place. Located right on Shrewsberry Street in Worcester Massachusetts you’re walking distance to all the fine restaurants like the 111 chophouse or Via and 7 Nanna directly next door.

Fresh smokes, low key, not overly friendly but a nice place to stop in on a weekend ride.

great place to socialize & meet people

Great place for a drink and a cigar.

I kind of love Victory. We ended up here after Super Nationals was a huge bust. We got there around 5 on a Saturday, and there were about four men in the bar. I’m pretty sure I heard someone yell, «Women!» when we walked in. To be fair, more women did come in, but most of them seemed to be drinking, or only smoking cigarettes. lame.
Anyway, the music is pretty terrible. There was a bigger guy in an Affliction T-​shirt working when we came in, he was cool, and the music was good. Then he put on some Rihanna (for me, apparently, because he loves Rihanna and I look like her (I don’t)). Then a really cute girl came in to work the bar and started playing mostly top 40 hip-​hop, which is never really what I want from a cigar bar. But she was really nice, which kind of makes up for it.
But overall the cigars were good, they had a decent selection, and Affliction guy (along with the other guys near us at the bar) was pretty good at helping my novice friend pick out a first (and second) cigar.
The boy hates places that only do V-​cuts, and was kind of annoyed that they didn’t ask. He did get a bourbon he really liked called Angel’s Envy, so I think that made up for it too. Overall it was a good time, if we ever find ourselves in Worcester again we’ll probably go back.

This is my favorite cigar bar in Massachusetts, better than the Cigar Masters in Boston and way better than the one in Worcester. The cigar selection is superb, they probably carry at least a couple hundred different types. They always have a few I want to smoke, and I’m very, very picky. The guys working the humidor are friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. Every cigar I have smoked here has been in perfect condition except one Perdomo, but they are kind of crappy anyways, so it had nothing to do with the humidor.
The atmosphere is a perfect balance of blue collar, and classy bar. What I mean by this, is that its not a stuck up place, whilst being quite nice. There are lots of comfortable places to sit including; the bar, tables and chairs, booths, and couches.
The drinks are generously poured and reasonably priced. The owners are so kind, that during a football game, they were giving away free pizza and sandwiches, it’s that sort of generosity that makes me fall in love with an establishment such as this one.
When there isn’t much you can do to improve a business, that’s how you know they deserve your business.

A great addition to Shewsbury, the best part about cigar smoke, it has magical powers to drive away shitty people.
Plus something just feels right about giving the middle finger to this zero tolerance BS mindset that is sweeping the nation.

Full of drunks and should be investigated for over serving. Cigars are stale, some have mold. Staff doesn’t pay attention to customers, especially the bartender that has the silly fedora and classes. If you unfortunately find your self in the city of Worcester and need a cigar spot goto cigar masters. They are much better and actually have class.

Victory was okay. It was fine for a place to hang out for a bit and grab a drink… but beer lovers be warned — no beers on tap… Also, the crowd on some nights is a bit older, not really my scene, but if you’re really craving a cigar it might be worth a visit…

great place for beer on a weeknight when everywhere else are dead and closed.

Sometimes, a girl just gets a hankerin’ for a cigar and a single malt. And what better place to go than a fine cigar bar on Shrewsbury Street, right?
The atmosphere is fine; nice and dark, well decorated. Really a lovely, small bar. We’re immediately greeted, however, with the haunting strains of «Headstrong» (back off, I’ll take you on… headstrong to take on anyone!).
The cigar bar and the alcohol bar are on opposite sides of the room, so you can peruse the tobacco selection without jockeying for position. We order our drinks, grab the window seat, and move over to chose our cigars. Now I’ve never run a cigar bar, but I would think that protocol would not be to assume the two males wanted cigars, and the female in the party wanted a cherry flavored monstrosity or a Marlboro Light. I was a little put off.
The rest of the evening was truly a nonevent. My friends and I sat at the table and finished our drinks and cigars. The music was too loud and too obnoxious to stay any longer than that. Pros: Nice cigar selection. Small, intimate tables. Knowledgeable staff.
Cons: Soundtrack.
Some of my pals really like it here, and a few of them make it one of their regular stops. Try it for yourself. Maybe we were just there on an off night? It seems to me, however, that you’d want to make the place as comfortable and inviting as possible. There are plenty of places to go in Worcester for a Mich. Ultra and some Hoobastank, or whatever.

The music is ungodly bad. The barstaff are incompetent, although fairly attractive.
The second star is for the ginormous drinks. It’s hard to leave here sober, not that I’d try.

Not affiliated with a cigar bar by a similar name in Sudbury, Victory is an upscale, well appointed cigar lounge with ample, plush seating, a number of plasma TVs, and a friendly helpful staff. The cigar selection is decent though not overwhelming. I prefer to bring my own cigars to enjoy, and management is cool with that provided I purchase my replacement sticks from them. The bar is very well stocked, and Victory’s location on Shrewsbury St makes it a must-​visit venue when I’m dining in the area.
