rhineholt Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm never going to a hookah bar again, unless they actually use a good hookah and some decent shisha.I went to this one place that I was always pleased with before I got my own hookah. Everything went fine... for the first 3 min. I realized I didn't get nearly as much smoke as I could with my hookah. I also noticed the flavor was lacking.I'm so angry.

Arcane Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 that usually happens...i know a few members here that said that don't even bother going to hookah bars anymore. the only time i'll go is when a bunch of my friends want to go chill and have a few drinks or something.

When there's a bunch of people so I don't agonize over how bad the hookah is. Hah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RingsMaster Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 most hookah bars are crap some are very good though, i just go to hang with a huge amount of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srawas89 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yea sorry to hear about your bad experiences...it is rare to find a really good hookah bar where the people really know their shit. I am fortunate to have one near me where they set up their hookahs almost as good if not better than when I set up my hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only problem there is they have the tiniest little mouthpieces that were soooo restrictive. I may bring my own mouthpieces or hose next time. Otherwise cool place!

mushrat Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 funny, i get people who come in who own their own hookahs and complain they can't get it to smoke as well as they can get at my place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srawas89 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yea their mouth pieces are restrictive but I deal with it anyway...sometimes I go without mouth pieces...might not be the smartest thing but whatever.

clumsygrace Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 My theory is why pay for a crappy smoke at a hookah bar when I could get a much better smoke at home for free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DistortedTruth Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 We rarely go to hookah lounges anymore. I don't see a point if you have your own; especially if your friends have their own too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Mush at the helm, I can't imagine why. Some bars are good, some are great, and then some are the alpah and omega of hookahs. I have yet to visit Mush and Sonthert, so I've only been to some good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisonpyh Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Agreed. The first hookah bar I went to cost my friend and I $30 and we stayed for less than an hour. For $20 more we could of bought the hookah I still have to this day and its been over a year and still smokes great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjako Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Two bars here are absolutely shit:$15 for "premium" starbuzz, it lasts 15-20 minutes, as its steel plated and underpacked, whispy smoke barely any flavor..tons of hotties though.Other bar is the same, but you have a wait list of 30-50 minutes.Only one bar which I haven't hit yet server Tangiers w/ foil, so I'll have to see.Once you hit your "hookah stride" you won't care for the bars, unless they got their own Stride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delSol_si Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I have actually never been to a hookah bar. I really want to go and try one out though, see what its like. Would be kinda nice to smoke without thinking about how much the shisha and coals are costing me, and then not have to clean the hookah after using it.

RingsMaster Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 just went to cafe medi friday lol with my grandma gf and roommate, yes my granny is freakin cool like that lol, plus she loves greek food and medi serves it, but i was actually suprised our hookah was 15 and we had starbuzz citrus mist and it lasted a good hour before we left and was packed pretty well. good draw on the crappy hose they gave us but i did see that they started to carry a couple nakhla flavors which i picked up a few, coffee, and banana. good time though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
