About The Metropolitan Society


Fine cigars and good fellowship, since 1994.

Our Story

A Club Built on Friendship

The Metropolitan Society was founded in 1994 to celebrate fine cigars, food, wine and spirits, and above all the friendships that grow around them.


More than three decades later, "Metro" remains a private, member-run club in Fairfield, New Jersey: 4,200 square feet where you can light up, settle in, and be among people who share the passion.

What Metro Is

Private. Member-Run. Yours.

Private.

Members-only, with round-the-clock entry by a secure app on your phone.

Member-run.

The club is governed by a Board of Directors and its members. New members are reviewed by a membership committee.

Yours.

Bring your own cigars and your own spirits (we don't sell either), and make yourself at home.

Life at the Club

Every Night Is Different

Weeknights in the Lounge with the game on. Quiet afternoons of work with Wi-Fi throughout. Catered cigar dinners in the La Cubana Room, often with guest presenters from cigar and spirits brands. Then there are golf outings, holiday parties, comedy nights and the annual members' picnic.
