Brick and Mortar Compendium

[jefe1037]

Do we have an extensive list of b&m shops somewhere? My search doesn’t reveal too many. I am always looking for a stop to make on a road trip to break up the ride.

Iwan Ries in Chicago was my home store for a while and it is legendary.

I saw that Boswells has two locations. Is one better than the other? One is in Chambersburg PA the other is in Alexandria PA

Uhle’s in Milwaukee is going to be a stop for me sometime soon (hoping to catch a baseball game up there this summer).

Please feel free to list your favorites below. I will see if I can make a list and maybe even organize it by state or region if we get enough of them!

Ansteads in Fayetteville, NC is a really nice place. Briar and Bean in Clarksville, TN is one I used to visit when I lived there

I'm fortunate enough to count John Dengler Tobacconist as my semi-local out in St. Charles, MO.

 

[Blackhorse]

We have a comprehensive online vendor list somewhere here…one could extrapolate from that.

Now where did I out that?

Pipe Dreams in Aiken, SC. Most of their customers deal in cigars, but the store does have a pretty good selection of tinned and bulk tobaccos. The staff is friendly and does their best to help one out. I buy my tobaccos there.

The Hill Cigar Co. St Louis, MO. They have a good selection of pipes, and tinned and bulk tobacco.

One of the best is Paul's Pipe Shop in Flint. MI. That place is an institution to pipe smoking, even have a museum. Great original blends and LOTS of assortments of tobaccos and pipes including their own brand Cayuga. Paul's Pipe Shop and Pipe Hospital | Home of the Cayuga Pipe | Flint, Michigan

Schwab's Pipes and Stuff Lexington KY. One nice light English blend is Paul's Stuff.
