Out of interest, MadMullah, did you ever find anywhere in or around Manchester where you can enjoy a smoke that isn't a shisha bar?
I havent disillusioned. The nearest I got was somewhere near Huddersfield i think there's a hotel there that has a cigar terrace.I believe the Midland hotel used to have a cigar shop inside but has since closed down.
London does seem to be the place for a terrace, in that sense Manchester really has really dropped the ball.

That's a real shame, I'll have a word with a few tobacconists and see if I can find anything up this way, if not, it's a niche opportunity for someone which is sorely missed.
I'd be willing to travel a reasonable distance to enjoy a smoke somewhere other than home or holiday, although last Christmas some friends and I rented a cottage in Snowdonia, I took my bottle of port and my R&J and set up a deck chair in the snow, looking out over the mountains a river and a lake... That was very pleasant (and yes said friends looked at me as though I was thoroughly off my rocker).
Oh its definately an opportunity in manchester - it would go down a storm in the right place. I'd love to do something along these lines if only the start up costs werent so high!!I'd be willing to travel a reasonable distance to enjoy a smoke somewhere other than home or holiday, although last Christmas some friends and I rented a cottage in Snowdonia, I took my bottle of port and my R&J and set up a deck chair in the snow, looking out over the mountains a river and a lake...

I would've thought that there would be at least ONE place that catered for this in the UK's 2nd city. I travelled all the way to ten manchester st in London to enjoy their selection! Before I got made redundant I was planning a trip to Boisdale.
I went to Pakistan recently and was looking forward to smoking a cigar or two on my terrace overlooking a lake - got there and the cigar shop had burnt down a few months earlier
