Bale & Ash

Cigar Lounge

In downtown Pleasant Hill, at 215 Cedar Street. Open to the public, memberships available.

Open to the public Monday to Saturday. Sundays are members only.

Premium tobacco only. Adults 21 and older.

Two ways in

You don't need a membership to sit down. Stop by, buy a cigar and enjoy the room. If you find yourself coming back, there's a locker with your name on it.

Stop by

Open to the public six days a week.

  • Monday to Thursday, 10 am to 9 pm
  • Friday and Saturday, 10 am to midnight
  • Choose a cigar from the humidor and settle in, inside or out on the patio

Become a member

Members treat the place like their own, because in a sense it is.

  • Your own humidified locker for cigars, glasses and other personal items
  • Key fob access. Members with 24/7 access can come in on Sundays, when the lounge is closed to the public
  • A private room members can reserve, for a client meeting, a fantasy football draft or a quiet evening with friends

Ask about membership: call (816) 885-1266 or see us at the lounge.

The lounge

Jesse and Jamie Schuman opened Bale & Ash in the fall of 2025, in the downtown building many in Pleasant Hill still remember as Brickers. They could have built out on 7 Highway. They chose downtown, because they wanted to help it thrive.

Inside it's softly lit and made for staying a while: a temperature and humidity controlled humidor, comfortable chairs, member lockers, and a patio for evenings outside. Come for one cigar or for the whole evening. Great conversation and interesting people are part of the deal.

“We want people to come in, light a cigar, pull a book off the shelf, and just be.”
