About Ritz London Cigar Shop
Ritz London Cigar Shop is a London venue with a price point of about $120 per person and a smart casual dress code.
For guests deciding whether to book, the clearest confirmed details are simple: plan for a higher-end spend and dress smart casual. If your occasion depends on specific features such as food service, outdoor seating, a particular drinks program, or a detailed tasting format, confirm those directly before making plans.
A premium London venue with limited detail
Ritz London Cigar Shop should not be evaluated here on claims about cuisine, chef, awards, opening history, seat count, or a particular service style.

That makes it most useful for guests who are already comfortable with the expected spend and want a London venue where dress and occasion matter. For groups, the same caution applies: make sure everyone is aligned on the budget and confirm any practical needs directly with the venue before committing.

Bar context
How it compares in Mayfair
Choose Ritz London Cigar Shop over The Rivoli Bar only when cigars are the reason for the stop. The Rivoli Bar is the stronger fit for a seated hotel-bar experience, while the cigar shop is more focused and better used before or after another booking.
For a group of 4+, Dover Yard, Kwant, and Donovan Bar are easier recommendations if the priority is drinks, ambiance, a full evening. The cigar shop is more useful for a smaller party or a specific purchase-led stop.
Sake no Hana is the better cross-shop when the group needs a food-and-drink plan rather than a cigar-focused detour. For value, the cigar shop is hard to judge without published pricing; its appeal is the Mayfair hotel setting and specialist purpose, not broad group utility.
