Used to be a great hangout. recently went back for the first time in a couple years. Was treated poorly the first time, but cause of my history there decided to give it another try. Second time was even worse. As a group of 3 we got there 7pm on a Saturday there were exactly two customers there so we asked to sit on the couches and were told they were only for groups of five or larger. Being that the place was empty we asked to sit there acknowledging that if a group or 5 or more came in we wouldnt hesitate to move. Another group of 3 comes in and now we were asked to move for them!! All while there was an empty couch sitting next to us .Which we were informed was reserved for the owner. When asked to speak to the owner he wasnt even there. We were there about an hour and no one came around to blow out or replace our coals once. Now after being harassed about the seating in a still half empty café, we asked for the check, which conveniently has gratuity included on it. Being that we were treated so poorly we disagreed with the 21% tip that had been added and spoke with the tardy, ego-maniac owner who didnt flinch at his bogus policy. WILL NOT BE BACK HERE EVER AGAIN and would never recommend it to anyone from now on!!! Save your money! there are much better places in the area.

Very weak tasting Hookah and not so friendly staff. Not saying theyre unfriendly. The owner is usually there and only stays in a corner with people he knows and kept gazing our way. Either come by and say hello or stop staring. Its extremely creepy. As for my comment of the staff being not so friendly at least most places say hi and check on you at least once. Not a single welcome or checkup. And it was fairly dead... so its not like she was busy. Didnt order any food so cant comment but the drinks (juices and smoothies) we received ranged from cool (not cold) to room temperature. The price was about average for this area.

Worst hookah! Liquid kept coming into my mouth, I had to return it 3 times! The 4th time it still kept doing it but I was too fed up to return it again. Service was super slow despite the fact that the place was empty, still ridiculous gratuity was added to our bill even though we had to get up every time we needed the hostess. Needless to say, never going back!

Not a bad place.. Rather nice atmosphere, music is a little loud and the hookah isnt the strongest tasting stuff. Oh and theyre are alot of rules (cant move the coal yourself, cant sit on the couch unless your a group of 5, only cash ect.) I didnt enjoy their teas though. Not the best place, but I can definitely see myself going again.

Had a great time at this spot. Ive been to several similar places but none as good as this. The drinks are great (i luv the mango smoothy), and the hookah was good, they had flavors I havent seen in other lounges. Good music, good crowd, and the staff was cool too. I absolutly recommend

I had a great time checking this place out. The hookah here was the best Ive had and you can tell they clean their hookahs often as it never burned the entire time I was there. I would highly recommend this place to my friends. The server was very nice too.

I am a regular and its perfect facility. very casual and relaxed outing. exactly what I need a place I can chill any day of the week. weekends are busy but they make it work. maybe pricier a little bit but worth it

Best hookahs around. The hookahs in a fruit head are delicious and last a while. The coffee selection. Is vast and compares to any other coffee location. The only downside is cash only. So be prepared!

Hookah is alright, prices are high. Every time I come, the mandatory gratuity amount seems to fluctuate, goes as high as 23%!!! Only reason I am giving it a 2/5 is cuz I lost my viginity here.

Out of all the hookah places around East Brunswick, this place is probably best? IDK, its complicated in NJ. They have tea and hookah :)

Hookah wasnt packed right, No food & wasnt able to bring any in, on top of over priced tea & coffee.
