Background and Ambiance

Founded by Rhode Island natives John Lepore, Jared Bisordi, and Dennis Lavan, the lounge reflects their shared passion for premium cigars and hospitality. Its décor—highlighted by the “king of diamonds” motif—pays homage to Las Vegas’s gaming heritage. Guests can unwind in plush seating surrounded by state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems that create a sophisticated yet relaxed setting for socializing.

Offerings

Triple Crown features an extensive walk-in humidor with more than 50 cigar brands, including its proprietary “The King’s Blend,” a Nicaraguan puro crafted with master blender Tony Barrios. The full bar serves cocktails designed to complement cigar flavors, while its kitchen offers small bites during live music nights and major sporting events. A “Cigars to Go” program allows patrons to purchase boxes or singles for off-site enjoyment.

Membership and Events

Membership options grant VIP perks such as priority seating for concerts and sports viewings, daily cocktail privileges, and discounts on cigars and merchandise. The 2,300-square-foot venue accommodates about 50 guests, hosting private parties, corporate gatherings, and themed evenings ranging from UFC watch-alongs to jazz sessions.

Distinction in Las Vegas

Praised by local outlets like Haute Living as a top “off-Strip” cigar destination, Triple Crown Cigar Lounge caters to both seasoned aficionados and casual visitors seeking a refined yet welcoming escape just minutes from Mandalay Bay.
