Flavor of Havana

I love this place. I used to go here a lot but just am not around anymore. It’s not huge but it’s still a pretty nice place to just hangout. If you go during the day it’s calm enough to bring your laptop and work and if you go at night it’s like a tiny club. Nice place to go in Aurora when you don’t feel like going to Denver to party or lounge depending on the time you go.

Staff is completely incompetent. This is my first time here. The «waitress» hasn’t come to our table in over an hour but has no problem smoking at the bar or visiting with the regular customers. The one who brought us our hookah without a coal. 20 minutes later I got fed up and the DJ got us a «temporary coal» after another 20 minutes of watching all the other hookas get fresh coals at the bar the DJ again was the first to help. I have to give this place 1 star because waste of time money and space. If your the owner and your reading this fire your staff and start fresh. I will never return to this sorry excuse of a hookah bar. Attempting to end on a positive decent selection of cigars.

I use to go here a lot, but the crowd changed and drove me away. The staff often acts like you’re invisible and won’t serve you. There is no food, nothing on tap. You can smoke inside this bar and drink alcohol. The bathroom is a male and female bathroom which can lead to some disgusting situations. Watch out for the fakes

So who wants to enjoy a cigar and a cocktail inside an establishment? If you do, there are few bars in Colorado where lighting a cigar is legal. This is one.
This place is small, but layed out to maximize the space, and «feels» larger than it is. The bar is stocked with a reasonable variety of bottled beer. The liquor selection is also reasonable. The seating is cosy, (couches, large chairs, and barstools) yet open enough that a few friends can relax together.
The cigars are overpriced (thats the reason for 3stars instead of 4), but they have little competition in the area. The service was excellent, but I was there early on a sunday. I will return with friends, but probably not on my own.

Laid back atmosphere. Nice cigar selection and fun and energetic staff. Relaxing place to chill and enjoy a nice stiff drink.

Just moved here from ks and saw this bar on Unilocal.Was able to recieve a free shot or beer by doing a review. Cant get any better then free booze. :) nice place and music. I will return again.
Thank you Flavor of Havana :)

While in Denver for a conference this place was the closest cigar lounge to the hotel. My first impression was «ok, so it’s a dive bar». To the right is a closet sized humidor that was stocked with a small selection. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. While I found the prices a bit much for a dive, being able to smoke made it bearable. Good place to unwind and watch a game but not to bring clients. Temper expectations and enjoy!

Great hole in the wall cigar bar! Favorite bar in Aurora, great selection of cigars!

Amazing people and the best walk-​in humidor this side of a duty-​free (embargoes suck)! I hate waiting and i hate pretentious pricks, Flavor of Havana has neither. I love the luxury of enjoying a smoke and a great scotch. The selections are endless, make the trip and make a friend! I will be back, unbelievable hospitality and a fun place to experience new flavors, you have my attention. You can get the best cigar in the state and pair it with a 25yr scotch under one roof! I’m hooked on this place!

This was one of the most terrible experiences I have ever had in dealing with a bar. Upon arrival the woman began to harass my friend and I about ids commenting that they are not valid because the are vertical but are in fact still valid because they are from different states and are seen as valid within our home states. She proceeded to over analysis my id asking me questions and then asking for more proof of identification after I correctly and accurately answered all the information on the id. The woman took it to drastic measures on proving the id was truly mine. And right after we sat down she went over to the bartender and they both pointed and laughed at us directly from behind the bar. My friend then ordered a drink which was $ 6 which is more than downtown and also when she received her drink it was watered down with the water clearly visible on the surface of the drink. Then a man proceeded to hit on us which led to him standing up on the table in front of me and dancing like a stripper. He did this three time before the management even did anything. They merely watched and laughed. It was the most appalling experience I have ever had at an establishment and will never recommend this and highly vote against this place to anyone who brings it up.

I was staying in Aurora, CO for a conference and decided to take a small detour to the Flavor of Havana to have a cigar and a beverage.
The business is located in a strip mall. The humidor didn’t have a fantastic selection. The waitstaff asked me if I needed any help, so I asked for a medium to full bodied cigar recommendation. After I purchased it, I found out that it was a flavored cigar. How does that not come with a warning? Or even come close to being a medium-​full bodied cigar?
Beer selection was okay — lots of bottles, but mostly generic domestics. They did have White Rascal from Avery and a Goose Island Ale though. Back bar seemed to be fairly well stocked.
Also, I was a bit disturbed that a little girl came running into the bar. Granted it was the middle of the afternoon, but people were smoking and drinking.
If you have other cigar bar options, I’d suggest exploring them first.

I’d like to rate this place 3.5 stars, actually. It’s small, but the guy who was working helped me pick out a cigar and was nice and helpful (and cute!) It’s a chill little place, just wish the prices reflected it. It was a little over $ 20 for two small drinks and one cigar. Still, I’ll be back!

I am a tag along for all the cigar shops my hubby and I hit. So I am more about the atmosphere, price and location.
For me the location of this place is so-​so when you first drive up, it is in a really old shopping center and honestly were looking straight at it and I didn’t realize it was a cigar bar. Plus, it is really busy to get out of the parking lot since it sits off Iliff and Chambers. Now the inside definitely is much nicer than the outside and will bring your back. A nice humidor, helpful owner (I assume) and a nice little lounge with a full bar in back.
I personally thought their couches had a few too many burn holes (I realize this is a hazard of the business) and that the drinks were a bit pricey, but hey where else in Aurora can you have a cigar and a drink? It had a nice look and vibe.
It was our closest place so I am guessing we will return!

Absolutely no complaints here. They have a great selection of cigars at competitive prices and the owner/​manager let us browse for as long as we needed to. There were signs everywhere that said not to touch the cigars but he explained that was for people who like to handle every single cigar and take them out of the wrapper before they buy one. I can certainly understand that.
The inside was comfortable with great seating and a good selection of alcohol behind the bar. Both the bartender and the owner/​manager seemed very helpful and chatty, which is always a plus.
I think next time i go back I’ll have to try the hookah!

This is a great local bar/​hookah lounge/​cigar bar. The staff is great, the people are awesome and it’s cheap! For a small bar, they have a great selection of cigars. And don’t forget about Monday nights… it’s Karaōke Night!

great place to stop off and have a cigar and a drink

Love to visit true cigar bars in all my extensive travels. This one I would go cal to any and every time I am in Denver.
Good, not great, but a good selection, very hospitable wait staff. Not pretentious and a well stocked bar.
Wish I had this place in my neighborhood.

For what it is it’s perfection. Want a nice close comfy (couches and chairs and a bar) atmosphere you and friends can get a little snack, have some decent limited menu food, and some good drinks WHILE YOU SMOKE?
It’s no dive bar either although outside is deceptive. It’s got a little class inside.
The people are nice, music is good, it’s comfy in ambiance… I’m from Chicago with friends here I’m visiting and wanted all this place offers. Met the owner who is a kick ass friendly guy. Just a small but classy joint with all I wanted to hang with long lost friends my first night back. Strip mall style with TONS of parking. Pricing was perfect as well. PURE PERFECTION for all I was hoping for and I’ll be here 5 more nights and you can bet one or two will be back there!

Ummmm this little gem has be hiding next to my hair salon this whole time, and I never knew about it! My awesome hairstylist and I went here for a mid-​day drink. Staff Super friendly! Great selection!
I will be going back here for sure!
Check this place out!

Quite the update at the old Smokers Delight.
Most of the changes are good ones. The interior design has been given a major update. New couches and chairs, larger better stocked bar, and more TV’s. The space is still small but better used now and you could even bring a gasp…“girl” here now.
The cigar selection is still good and now they have hookahs too which seems like a savvy, albeit non-​traditional addition.
Overall I like the changes, but I’m not a big fan of the cigarette smoking patrons that are now ubiquitous. It’s just not the same vibe in that sense of cigar smoking solidarity. It’s just different and I understand that cigars by themselves probably don’t pay the bills these days. I just don’t want this place to turn into a slightly nicer «Smoker Friendly».
Still I rank this place high on my list of places to frequent and the new owners are obviously trying to make this place great which is really cool.
