Village Cigar Company & Barbershop was originally just an idea that quickly grew to an obsession and finally a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After signing the lease in Village Square in Downtown Burlington, Ontario in May 2012, we wasted no time starting demolition just moments after the keys landed in the palms of our hands. The next two months were spent relentlessly charging forward to build the shop we always envisioned. We enlisted the help of some very knowledgeable and extremely generous friends and family to create what you all see today, which is not merely just a retail location. Our goal was to create a community; to enhance peoples\u2019 enjoyment of cigars, pipes, gentlemanly accoutrements and Traditional Barbering by representing the culture to its fullest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We opened our doors to much anticipation on July 20th, 2012. Opening day was a special one as we filled the shop not only with those supporters who helped make it happen, but also new friends we hoped would join in the excitement of this new space. Since that day, we have continued to meet new friends and have also continued to expand our offering of fine cigars from around the world on a weekly basis. The more than 100 square foot walk-in humidor is our ultimate pride and joy but it\u2019s just the beginning of the experience. We are more than happy to spend time in there with you, talking about your likes and preferences, but it\u2019s when you step outside of the humidor where the community truly takes shape. You are welcome at any time to sit in the lounge and join us as we take in a movie or a game. Then when it\u2019s time to finally partake in that fine cigar, we have set-up several comfortable chairs in our private courtyard complete with ashtrays, lighters and, during the cold-weather months, patio heat lamps to make the experience all that more enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For those of you who wish to feel as though you have stepped way back in time, we also offer traditional barbering services. We have expert in-house barbers offering the finest in men\u2019s haircuts and traditional hot towel straight razor shaves via one of our 5 antique barber chairs. It\u2019s truly an experience you won\u2019t forget: sit and get cleaned up, grab a cigar, then shoot the shit as the afternoon passes by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So whether you\u2019re new to our VCC&B experience or you\u2019ve been with us since Day One, we encourage you to stop in, get to know us and enjoy your favourite cigar or even try something entirely new. Most of all, we\u2019re simply looking forward to meeting you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
