Best Hookah Bars In Brooklyn

It's time to head on over to Brooklyn! As one of New York City's most populous boroughs, Brooklyn is filled with unique restaurants, watering holes and, for the flavored tobacco-loving crowd, laid-back hookah bars. A number of bars even offer delicious Middle Eastern food and drink. Whether you're a hookah bar enthusiast or simply looking for something different to do on a Friday night, gather a group of friends and check out these Brooklyn hookah bars.

Lamoza
7704 3rd Ave.
Brooklyn, NY 11209
(718) 238-3625

With comfortable seats, a great hookah selection and electrical outlets at every seat (in case you need to charge your phone), what's not to love about Lamoza? Choose from a variety of hookah flavors such as rose, melon, pina colada, cherry and apple. For a fruitier taste, add a watermelon or pineapple head. Try out a "cold hose" to cool down your hookah for a smoother, more enjoyable experience. Based in Bay Ridge, this hookah lounge is worth the trek.

Coney Island is always a fun adventure. If you like hookah and dancing in a party-like environment, then Shadow Lounge is the spot for you. Hang out on one of two floors while sipping on cocktails, inhaling hookah and chowing down on Mediterranean, seafood and steak dishes. Every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., Shadow Lounge offers $15 hookah and two-for-one drinks.
