New Cigar Patio is Now Open

Posted by Ben on 31 August 2009 | 486 Comments

  • The Gent's Place just added a new perk for its loyal members and clients, "The Gents Cigar Patio."  I was thinking about why the cigar patio is so cool and came up with the following ways we can put this thing to good use:







  • For our cigar guys, a place to enjoy a smoke with your friends before or after your service
  • For our foul-mouthed guys, a place where you can say whatever the hell you want without any worry that a woman or child will think differently of you
  • For the guy that just needs to "get away from it all", a place where you can complain about women, kids, and work without anyone judging you and around guys that will likely completely agree with you and add fuel to the fire (this could be dangerous)
  • For the work-aholic, a place where you can get free wi-fi 7 days a week without having to buy a cup of coffee.  Just ask the front desk for the password.
  • For everyone else, it's just another place at Frisco's "mancave" where guys can network and BS without having to give up their MAN cards.  Enjoy!

Art of Manliness Blog Mentions The Gent's Place

Posted by Ben on 18 August 2009 | 2 Comments


The Art of Manliness is quite possibly one of the best "manly" blogs out there on the net and is definitely my personal favorite.  In fact, you may have noticed some of their blog posts laying around the bar at the shop from time to time.  The blog covers a plethra of topics on how to be the best man that you can be: anything from how to give a manly handshake, how to be a great Godfather, wardrobe recommendations, money management advice, and numerous other tips and insights on how to live your life to the fullest.  I also appreciate the historical wisdom and insights from some of our founding fathers, especially the posts on Benjamin Franklin.  The Art of Manliness has amassed quite a following (over 45,000 subscribers) and you can imagine the honor of receiving a phone call today from Brett McKay, founder of the blog.  We chatted about "How to Pick a Barber" for awhile and he posted an article which is definitely worth reading.  You can find the article by clicking "How to Pick a Barber."  I encourage all of you to check out The Art of Manliness blog sometime and tell me what you think.
