New shop in Tampa FL area

I am visiting my buddy in the Tampa area and he found a new shop that just recently opened in Valrico.

Edward's Pipe & Tobacco Shop - 4366 Lithia-Pinecrest Road - Valrico, FL 33594 /// 813-653-4282

NICE little shop - Not huge but well done.

The main area has a granite bar with many stools with a TV room off to the side. The walk in is average in size with a nice selection which is still being fine tuned as he has only been opened for a couple of months. A nice selection of pipes and pipe tobacco too.

What's great in particular is that the owner allows you to bring in your own food and drink (yes, alcohol too) to enjoy at the bar while you stay for a smoke. Many of the patrons order pizza, etc to be delivered. Others bring in wine, etc to enjoy while they stay.

The owner is a young guy who is very eager to help you and is very outgoing.

A nice place. Just wanted to let you know!

I wonder if this has any relation to the Edwards Pipe and Tobacco on Kennedy in Tampa.
