JustinTyme Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I'm busy getting things together for my new hookah cafe/lounge. However, I still haven't decided on a good name for it. I've had plenty of suggestions from family and friends, but nothing really stands out or has a catchy ring to it.So, I'm asking if any of you have a good sounding name for a hookah cafe. Something that's not already taken. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.- Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allia22 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Vulgar as it is, it would draw customers. Some frat boy made millions because he opened a chain of restaurants called "The Pink Taco." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj154906 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I always thought that if I opened a Hookah Bar I'd call it "The Rabbit Hole." It's an Alice in Wonderland reference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bachdragon Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 If I was opening a hookah lounge, I would probably name it "Red Label Hookah Lounge". Then the waiters inside would all wear matching cloths of same color, probably a white Shirt with nice grey pants. I would also have a red and black theme throughout the whole cafe.If you open this, I would come.I wish you luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cemab4y Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 When I was a child, I was enthralled to read the stories of the Arabian Nights, and see movies of genies, and flying carpets. If I ran a hookah shop, I would use an Arabian theme. "Thousand and One Nights" or "Flying Carpet", or some other play on the Arabian theme. I wish you good luck, I have been considering opening some kind of smoke lounge in my retirement years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannibal Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Oh man i'll be sure to be there on opening day! There are almost no hookah cafe's here, just upscale restaurants with hookah on the side.I was wondering where exactly you were going to set up in ATL, it could help name your lounge. For instance if your in mid-town you can name it something like "The mid-town Smoke".......or if you are planning on being in Buckhead you could mess with that too. These are the two social hot-spots and I think using the location name somewhere will help to associate your lounge with the "have a good time" atmosphere that they have already created.If not you would probably be best with these modernish sounding titles that the other guys are suggesting, hookah here is extremely popular with college kids, so you should play to the younger crowd. Some other suggestions: "Aura", "Zephyr", "Cafe Blissful", "Celestial Smoke"..........basically anything referring to soft, smooth, heavenly, or relaxing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
