John Crouch Tobacconist

If I could give it 6/5 stars I would. Super nice environment greeted with delicious smelling cigars as soon as you walk in. & super nice employee/owner.
The only place out of 15-20 I’ve called/gone to that has had snuff.

Great selection of cigars. The staff are very knowledgeable. Prices are good

Good quality cigars. They have many options in the humidor room. Also they have more cheaper options than others.

Let me use bathroom (which was nice and clean) before even making a purchase. Has a nice selection of cigars and even pipes for tobacco. The stupid, required “Tobaccco Tax” is included in the price of the cigar, which is a plus!

The best place in the DMV for real tobacco. Try the Buddy's Blend, it's in memory of my Uncle, one really amazing man!

Great prices on great cigars. Welcoming clubhouse vibes. A fine place to relax in comfort and enjoy a cigar. You won't regret stopping in at John's, belive me!

Staff was helpful and accommodating. Offered several suggestions to match taste and budget. Looking forward to a good scotch and one of these sticks.

Visited this shop on a recent trip to the DC area. John was super friendly and helpful. Good selection of cigars in a great, historic town! This is the best shop to visit when in Alexandria, VA because of its long history and passion for the industry. Thanks guys!

The gentleman who helped me out was extremely professional. He was also knowledgeable about the cigars and was able to assist me in choosing ones for my partner. It's always nice to have someone who knows what they 6doing help you select items that you are unfamiliar with.

Highly recommend. Went in not knowing much about cigars in general. I wanted to get a couple of sticks for my buddies to enjoy and this place knocked it out of the park. Very pleased with the service and price.

From Germany vacation: Not Shiny like the franchise over the street. ( cigar fast food)
BUT when you want to talk with real locals , a realy good humidor, the feeling of " you are welcome "las human "not just as customer... you have to go to this "lounge". Get good insider informtions where to go , where to eat by a nice smoke and watching the game.
It is a must go when you realy want a good experince of local hospitality.

Owner run local business with great selection reasonable prices compared to NOVA chain establishments.

They greet everyone like they are a regular. Think Cheers without the beers.

I walked in only knowing what the labels of the cigars looked like. I knew I wanted to get them for my boyfriend but had no idea how I was supposed to keep them in a stocking. The gentleman who was helping me was very patient with me and answered all of my questions! I will be taking any future business there!

I spend a lot of time and money here. It is not the flashiest or most serious smoke shop, but it is like a second home for me. I count John and Zach among my closest friends and they really made me feel like Alexandria is a home. If this shop is made into a serious smoke shop (by removal of the Scottish merch. and the addition of comfy chairs and bigger tvs, etc) this could be one of the best shops in NOVA, especially given the location. If you need anything at this shop ask for John or Zach!

Was on vacation visting , my friend and i dropped in . The staff was super cool and you take a pencil write down the prices of what your getting. Very old school very old historic place with good prices n nice cigars.

Good prices and friendly staff! Felt very welcome which was refreshing because as a young woman I often feel dismissed in cigar shops.

The guys at John Crouch are outstanding. I'm fairly new to cigar smoking and almost every other place will never suggest a cigar under $8.00 a stick but the guys at John Crouch will ask you a few questions and suggest cigars any where from $30.00 to $2.00. They also have what seems to be every cigar known to man despite the small to medium sized walk in. Opux X, Ashton ESG, Aging Room Small Batch, Fuente Rosado, Villiager... and hundreds more.

And the best part of the place aside from the perfectly maintain humidor are the stories everyone there is quick to share.

The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and polite. They have a great selection of pipes and tobacco as well as cigars. I will definitely go back.

Excellent service and help. The character of the place is intoxicating.

Due to covid19 I was unable to go in the shop to look around but the gentleman was so helpful in selecting some great cigars for me..will be stopping through this week
