Sahara Hookah Cafe
Reviews
I liked the atmosphere, DJ was pretty good considering it was a very mixed crowd. Great plae to visit after the club, or after a house party. Everyone was polite and attentive. I'm 22, and the crowd was roughly around my age..so 20-30 ..a few 40's here and there. First time, going and I'm pretty sure I'll visit again. The only reason I can't give 5 starts - they don't serve alcohol after 12am. WHAT's UP WITH THAT ?
Everybody is so friendly and nice, especially the staff! great place to unwind after long day at work..
Best hookah place in Raleigh. Great staff.
Sahara is one of the most authentic yet modernized hookah bars I've been to in the country. Being an avid hookah smoker, and while working a job that requires travel often, I have been to a large number of hookah bars. Sahara Cafe in Raleigh is by far my favorite outside of the Middle East. The hookahs are top notch using the best quality hookah, tobacco, even the best coals! Their drink assortment is excellent (my favorites being tea with mint and the Pistachio shake). Service is phenomenal and the staff is very welcoming and willing to help whenever needed. I HIGHLY recommend anyone that is in the triangle or travelling to the Raleigh/Durham area at any time.
Best hookah bar in the area. Relaxing place to chill out and smoke hookah. The use quality equipment and have very nice staff. They are pretty good at swapping out coals even when they are busy. Decent selection of shisha flavors, but do run out of popular ones at times. They don't serve alcohol but they do serve cold and hot drinks. A good mix of people, if seems like all are welcome. It gets busy on the weekends, and super smokey as you can imagine. I would give it 5 stars if it were a bit more upscale. All in all a great place to go and have fun.
