Maffei Home of Havana Avis 

If you’re looking for a hidden treasure in Tunbridge Wells, Maffei Home of Havana’s is an absolute gem that deserves every bit of praise. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by the warmest of welcomes from Marco, hands down the greatest host I’ve ever encountered. His charm, knowledge, and genuine passion for what he does elevate the experience to something truly special.
What sets this place apart is not just the ambiance—though it’s spot-on with its cozy, inviting vibe—but the incredible selection of New World cigars. Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or a curious newcomer, Marco’s expertise guides you to the perfect pick, and the value for money is simply unbeatable. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful visitors here, from locals to travelers passing through, all drawn in by the same magic. It’s a little community of its own, buzzing with character and camaraderie.
Maffei Home of Havana’s isn’t just a spot to enjoy a cigar; it’s a destination, a haven, and a testament to the art of hospitality. Do yourself a favor and discover this delightful find—you won’t be disappointed.

A huge thankyou to Marco and his lovely daughter what a wonderful experience.
Went for the first time with my son today and will definitely be back.
Great selection of new world cigars with first class knowledge to go with it, really friendly relaxed atmosphere a perfect place to have a drink and a smoke whilst deciding what to top your humidor up with.
We have been to many cigar rooms but nothing comes close in terms of serice also the prices are extremely competetive aswell
Looking forward to coming back.

Awesome host, very helpful and informative about the cigars and was a very chilled environment. Can't wait to go back!

Very friendly owner who was good to us as starter cigar smokers, gave us a full explanation of what he was selling us. If you enjoy a smoke or are new to it I can't recommend this enough.

What an excellent host! Great cigar and lovely atmosphere couldn't have had a better time. First time cigar smoker and loved every moment of it!

Brilliant little lounge, me and my brother popped in last Sunday for a cigar and met a chap called Marco who had knew exactly how to guide us in our first cigar smoking experience. We both loved it and will definitely be back soon!

Great lounge, with a great selection.

Its always a pleasure going to this lounge.
Ill pop in once or twice a month and always find the owner more then welcoming, a wide selection of alcohol and a fantastic selection of fine cigars. I always go back time and time again and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

Best lounge in the U.K.
Perfection every time, Marco is fantastic.

What can I say?… I treat this place like my second home!

Maffei HoH is my safe haven! As soon as I walk into the lounge I’m immediately stress free upon taking in the aroma of well looked after cigars!

Marco and Marco are welcoming every time I visit… they’re good friends and they look after their customers.

If you ever get the chance to stop by, I really do recommend the Luma Cigar. It’s one of Marcos own brand and it is a lovely smoke! Very flavoursome.

I also recommend going along to one of their events. A great crowd of friendly people always go along, and good music is played with tasty Italian food served up.

To sum this place up… best cigars around, friendly staff, customers are looked after. What more can you want?

This is favourite chill out spot..here several times a week.I am a Monte no2 guy..but Marco always has something new to smoke with him and guys and girls who drop into the lounge..and Marco's banter is the bonus.

I went to the lounge a few months ago, it was a cigar event. I’ve been to several lounges outside of London so I knew what to expect, especially as a lover of cigars. The lounge was absolutely heaving, I comfortably so. The host ‘Don’ Maffei was welcoming I must say. That’s about the best thing I can say. It was £40 for entry, for that you got an Oliva G corona cigar-worth about £8. Then you got a free single measure of a very restricted spirits list. That was about it. The majority of stock is New World offerings which I love, but the prices are extortionate to say the least. I won’t be back.

A friend told me about Marco and met him on a train on my way home. We talked mostly about cigars and his knowledge is outstanding. He invited me to his lounge and he showed me all the cigar. I had one in the shop and took 2 home. He can't make you feel more welcome. An outstanding place, highly recommended. Will go back soon.

I got recommended by a friend to go to an event at Maffei Home of Havana and it was honestly one of the best nights out I'd ever had. The second I walked into the establishment I was greeted with a warm welcome by the owner, I believe his name was Marco. The rest of the staff were very accommodating and willing to help out in any way they could. The regulars were nothing but lovely and welcoming. It was my first time ever attending a cigar lounge so I had no previous knowledge on cigars, however the owner was very polite and didn't judge, instead he spent a bit of extra time with me to find a cigar I would enjoy. The drinks and cigars are sold at a decent price so if you was debating on whether to check this place out or not I would give it a 10/10, you won't regret it!

Love this place.
Discovered it nearly a year ago, now my regular place to smoke cigars.
Been to many in London but none of them get anywhere near this place for service and quality of Cigars.
They produce their own cigars, Luma, which is the best I’ve ever smoked and I smoke a lot of cigars.
Marco and Marco are great guys to deal with and always take time to sit down and smoke a cigar/s and chat with you.
More than just a cigar shop/lounge, it’s a place to meet like minded people and they make you feel extremely welcome.

Thank you for having us, me and the girls will definitely be back again :)
