Joseph's Coffee & Cigars

Joseph's is a two-in-one, coffee in the front, cigars in the back. I go do the coffee and the baristas are great and so is the coffee.

Amazing coffee, and great cigars. The staff is extremely nice as well! I wish they stayed open longer!

Yesterday was my first time here. I met an extremely nice and friendly gentleman named Cam. Cam was very knowledgeable on the cigars here. After going over the flavors I like in a cigar, he recommended a great Davidoff Churchill stick. It was perfect. I enjoyed my cigar on the patio with some iced coffee. This spot was perfectly comfortable for a cigar and coffee. It's welcoming and very low key. I can't wait to go back!

This is an adorable coffee shop where you can get some work done or just enjoy a good cup of coffee. As you enter it has a rustic contemporary vibe with tables and wicker chairs, 2 oversized leather chairs, wood ceiling, old brick walls, all types of coffee decor and coffee bean sacks behind the chairs lining the windows. Cute and comfortable with rock music playing softly in the background. Everywhere I went the place was spotless including the restroom. The barista behind the counter was very friendly and during our conversation mentioned this was his third week. He didn't seem like a newbie and was very confident and friendly. As I placed my order for a Chai Tea Latte the brownies and lemon bars screamed buy me! What could I do but take both home for my friend and I to devour later. And they did not disappoint! I really enjoyed talking to the employees and learning more about Joseph's. The Joseph family has had a business (coffee & cigars included) in this location for over a 100+ years. Impressive! And they love Richmond and Morton Street.There are several flavors of coffee and espresso, ice and blended, scrumptious scones, brownies, muffins, cinnamon rolls and lemon bars on the menu. Breakfast sandwiches (sausage rolls, ham & cheese, turkey & cheese) are available as well as lunch sandwiches. Today's sweet drink specials were the Tickled Pink Drink (white chocolate and raspberry), Beach Day Latte (caramel and sea salt) and Banana Split (banana, chocolate and strawberry). How tempting do those sound? A small cooler case has sodas, water, Bai and fruit juices available too.This coffee shop is much larger than I thought when I walked in. Good thing I'm curious or I would have missed the cigar lounge. Joseph's is two businesses under one roof. Take the large hall past the coffee shop and you'll see the humidor room, on the right, with a great selection, I'm told, of fine cigars. You can purchase cigars to go or get a one day pass or an annual membership to join Joseph's Cigar Club. This gives you access to Pop's Cigar Lounge with big, cushy leather chairs and several tables. Alcohol isn't served but BYOB is allowed for those who enjoy a glass of bourbon with their cigar. Pop's Cigar Lounge was locked when I visited this morning so I took a couple pictures through the window. The room looked extremely comfortable and there's a nice outdoor patio as well. Wonderful location for friends to meet or have a business meeting. Accessories (ashtrays, lighters, shirts, cigar cutters, humidors, etc.) are for sale and displayed in the large hall. I thoroughly enjoyed the hour I spent here today with good coffee, gooey sweets and great service. I plan on visiting again soon and most liking each time I'm in town. Why only four stars? Because I haven't tried the sandwiches yet but I will soon.

Stopped by for some caffeine and cigars with a friend, the caramel macchiato was great and my buddy enjoyed his iced white mocha. Spacious interior in the heart of historic Richmond. Quite impressed by the fact that they've been around since 1903, the age of the area really adds character to the place. Reasonably priced cigars, but a bit disappointed to discover the interior cigar lounge was members only. We were offered the option of a $20 dollar day pass though. There is ample room out on the patio to smoke for free though. I'll have to stop by if I find myself in Richmond again.

Absolutely wonderful little coffee shop in old Richmond. The coffee my wife and I ordered was amazing and the service was very fast. Very friendly people too! Every time we visit Richmond we will make sure to return here

Lots of coffee, espresso and tea options. They also have different syrup options like lavender and dairy/non-dairy options. A few pastries and complimentary travel size creamers and sugars. They also have a humidor in the back and you can enjoy a cigar

I come by here a few times a week in the mornings when I go for my morning cardio at Wessendorff Park. Staff is generally kind. I love how they have many syrup options to change up your drink every now and then.

Walked into Joseph's Coffee Shop on Saturday and encountered three people (appeared to be employees) enjoying their cigars in the coffee shop. The stench from the cigar smoke was overwhelming and we could not stay. I was under the impression that cigar smoking was in the back, not the front coffee shop area. I have been to Joseph's multiple times and never had this happen. Is this a new policy?

I wish that I would have reviewed Joseph's prior to this, but I never did. I would have loved to give them a glowing review. In the past, I would have given Joseph's a very enthusiastic 5 stars. It is incredibly cozy, the staff is friendly, and I've never had a food or drink that I didn't absolutely love. It always did smell faintly of cigar smoke and that was understandable. However, now that cigar smoking is taking place inside the coffee shop, I no longer enjoy the atmosphere. The smell is so overwhelming that I have had to leave several times. I have spoken to others who have mentioned the same thing. I will still go occasionally, and hopefully it will go back to the Joseph's that I once loved.
