Great place to relax and take time with a drink and/or cigar. Thanks for the hospitality!

Absolutely fantastic establishment.Count myself very lucky to have a local cigar bar that I can patronize.Importantly, the service and selection make me feel almost obligated to do so.A well curated, and diverse Scotch list; really all of their whiskey for that matter. Those seeking lighter cocktails fear not.Ginger beer, house mixes, and a solid draft list abound.

Stopped after Art Fair, great seating outside. We were still there when the Packers started so we stayed for the game. Comfortable seating & Patrick the bartender was great.

Im a novice cigar smoker, but the woman behind the bar was very helpful, professional, and kind. I loved my cigar and my drink was amazing. From my perspective, Maduro is a great place for drinks and cigars. Honestly, the best part was the outdoor seating. Really made it a fun night!

Reminds me of a cigar bar in Ybor, Tampa. Chill vibes, excellent adult beverages, & that sweet smell. It’s a little taste of home for me.

Fantastic cigar bar. Classy, hip, adult, chill, with a great selection of cigars and spirits. High, tin-stamped ceiling, original exposed brick walls, leather couches, dim lighting, and sweet tunes.

Nice little place. Classy feel. Fantastic beer and spirits along with a solid humidor. Something for every price level from cheap bear to aged spirits. Board games and cards available. Great place to grab a smoke.

A dimly lit but nicely furnished cigar bar just off the capitol. They have a relatively small selection of cigars on offer in their standing humidor (all my previous smoking room experiences have been cigar shops where etiquette dictates you buy you first cigar there,) but the focus seems to be more on offering a cigar friendly venue with a decent drink selection and a laid-back atmosphere. A mix of leather and wood furniture is laid out is small intimate groupings, while the old-style hammered tin ceiling adds to an air of sophistication without edging into gaudy or excessively opulent.The bartender was welcoming and pleasant, and over our three hours people watching, clearly most of the customers are regulars who know the place and each other very well. The air fills with a rich mix of aromas, but the ventilation system does an admirable job of keeping the air clear of hanging smoke.Unfortunately, the front of the shop is entirely glass, and is directly across from a parking structure exit, meaning that headlights are flashing through the shop every time a car departs. This, when contrasted with the extremely low light inside, can be a rather unpleasant shock to the senses. Not a lot to be done about that besides shade the windows, but the interior lights would definitely need to be brought up or youd have a hard time seeing your hand in front of your face.If youre looking for a cigar bar, this is the place to go in Madison. Im glad to see that a relatively niche venue like this is doing good business.

Great place. Great selection of beer, booze and cigars. Great staff. Pretty much just great all around. It is a cigar bar so if smoke is an issue, that may be the only problem for some (but not for me).

Great cigar bar in Madison. One of my favorite places to go in the summer. Their outdoor seating area is awesome and a great place to smoke a cigar. The staff is knowledgeable and will help you pick out a cigar from their collection and will even help you pair a drink with it. They have a decent cigar collection and an extensive collection of whiskey, scotch, and even beer. The atmosphere inside has a warm evening lounge feel to it.

Review №29

The cigar selection isnt extensive, but its well curated. They allow you to bring your own, if youre an aficionado like many who frequent this place. Classy, laid back atmosphere where a tie isnt out of place and neither are t-shirts. The drinks are amazing and well made (rye old fashioned, trust me). Sit outside when the weathers nice, or inside where the conversation is lively and the people are friendly.

Review №30

I like the vibe. Wonderful selection of cigars. But frankly the drinks were only ok, and far more expensive than they ought to be. Also, it goes from being slightly classy and chill to packed and loud with the younger crowd very rapidly. So be on the lookout if one vibe or the other sites you more.

If you enjoy cigars and/or alcoholic beverages you must come to Maduro. I went during the weekend in the early afternoon, and interacted with the bartender, a lovely and personable bartender named Erin, as well as various locals, and had the best time. There are few local bars that you can visit and it feels like home, and Maduro is just such a place. Thanks again for all the hospitality!

This is honestly one of my favorite places in Madison. I love their cocktails and cigar selection. And the overall atmosphere is relaxing and soothing. Whether you are looking for a midday retreat or a late night stop this is the place to be. Maduro’s is a madison treasure and always a great stop on any night of the week!

Maduro is a very nice and comfortable place. The humidor isnt large, but it has an excellent selection of cigars you may not have heard of. They are all delicious and very well kept.The bar has an incredible selection of beers, scotches, whiskies...everything. Come here twice and youre a regular. Make sure to say Hi to Gregory, Omar, Ruth, and Erin. They are great people and will make you feel right at home.

Review №38

Unique atmosphere between the ability to smoke cigars and the Bob Ross videos on TV. The wide variety of beer, wine, and cocktail choices makes any mood available. Super crowded on a Saturday night. If relaxation and easy drinks are your aim, an off-peak hour would be ideal.

Great spot. Huge alcohol selection, knowledgeable bartender, and large variety of cigars. The menus for both were particularly helpful. I had the Redbreast 12 year paired with a RumRunner cigar. Nice atmosphere as well. Busy for the middle of the day, and my spouse tells me when it turns to evening its even better. I will return!

Review №41

The mix-ologist behind the bar is brilliant. She is easily mixing up the best cocktails in Madison. You can order from the menu or ask for something unique; either will be great. That alone is worth going for. Maduro, being a cigar bar, also has a good selection of cigars that mix well with their drinks and its a good space to enjoy your cigar and drink together. I would caution that their air ventilation and filtration is not great so youll undoubtedly come out smelling of smoke.

Review №42

This place is top notch. Itd been a while since Ive had a good cigar, and this place turned me back into a smokestack. I was stuck in Madison on a wompy layover, but Im very glad it gave me the opportunity to come here: extensive craft beer selection, great cigar options and a wonderful staff make this a must-see if youre the classy consumable vice type.

The perfect spot for exactly what they advertise. Great ambience to unwind, have a nice cigar and whiskey. They obviously provide great beer options as well, but try their whiskey selection if you can. The bartenders are always willing to help find you the right cigar or drink, which is awesome since the selections can be overwhelming if your not conneisour.They have games, decent seating, a couch section if your lucky and its available. You may have wait a few minutes to get your order in, but well worth the wait. One of my favorite places in Madison.

Licensed to serve alcohol and tobacco, this cigar and pipe saloon is a great location for serious conversations, celebrations, and running into old friends. Located a block off Madisons capital square with ample parking nearby. They dont serve food, but welcome take ins. Great selection of cocktails, rotating beer and wine menu, whiskeys, ports, and sherries.

Had a great experience at this bar. Many spirits to chose from and delicious beers on tap. They even have Milk Stout! Not to mention their cigar collection. The plays looks very nice and the music is wonderful. They have lounge area with large leather couches for smoking your cigar and sipping your drink. They also provide board games, most are out dated but they have plenty decks of cards. Had a great time here.

One of my go to stops in Madison. Fantastic atmosphere that exudes warmth, leather, great music and conversation. Love the contemporary art prints and always clean with great bartenders and cigar service. If you like high end drinks this is where to find them. Small but varied selection of cigars and theyll cut it how you would like it. Light up with a book of matches and enjoy :)
