The Cave Hookah Lounge

Found this place on yelp and it was a good find. Visiting family in the area and it was super close. GPS took me in circles and turned what should have been a 5 minute drive into 30 minutes but I decided to call and was given good directions The set up is very chill and the music was just perfect for the ambiance genre and volume wise. I went during the evening before the place actually picked up but I liked it that way. Immediately after I walked in I was greeted by Ali, I think he's the owner. He helped me select a good flavor which was the skittles with an ice tip and kool aid base. It was very nice and he even came to check on me when he noticed I was grabbing the tongs to adjust the coal. He personally came to blow it out and welcomed me back anytime.Giving 4 stars because I would have liked transparency with pricing but instead I was offered a suggestion and next thing I know I was swiping my card! Hahah but I suppose that means he's a good salesman because I didn't even get to ask how much until I saw $30 total and he also don't ask if I wanted a receipt.Good place overall though.

Ok, this was my first hookah experience ever, so, I'm not real sure how the set up is supposed to work, but I'm just gonna tell you about it and you can either roll with it or scroll past it. First, GPS got us there pretty seamlessly, so it wasn't too hard for us to find, though without GPS, we might've missed it. There's a sign on the front door that says no alcohol or illegal drugs on the property. Just thought that this might be a good tip, since, as I understand it, some hookah spots allow BYOB. Not this one, apparently.Anyway, we walked in and it was definitely a younger crowd, though, we'll use the term "crowd" loosely as there were really only a handful of people in there. There were groups of couches around tables, at least one TV, and those paper party streamers hanging across the ceiling. We strolled up to the counter and there was a laminated sheet of paper taped to the counter with the list of flavors. There was a drink cooler behind the counter with bottled waters and sodas for sale along with those little 35 cent bags of chips. My husband let the guy know that it was my first time, but he just kinda stood there and nodded his head. He didn't really offer up any suggestions or go out of his way to be helpful, so I just picked Vanilla. The guy was also visibly agitated at some point by the fact that a couple of guys kept walking in and out the door.Then we paid the $16 and he told us he'd bring it out to us. We sat there for a while. I mean, I didn't time it or anything, but there was no on else ahead of us. But, hey, maybe it takes a while to set it up. Then when he brought it out to us, he stood there and smoked on it for a minute. While he was standing there puffing on our hookah, he tells the other guy that was working there to set up the hookah for the people who came in after us. Finally, he hands it over to us and tells me not to inhale it. We start trying it out and then the same guy comes out holding another hookah and tells us to wait. Apparently he was worried that he mixed our hookah up with the other people's. So he takes it from us and starts puffing on ours and then theirs and back on ours again to try and distinguish between the two flavors. All I'm saying is, it seemed a little suspect. Anyway, my husband told him that it seemed like we got the right flavor, so he took another drag, set it back down and walked the other hookah to those other dudes. I, personally, couldn't tell you what flavor we had, because I couldn't taste much of anything. Also, the couch was super uncomfortable with springs jabbing up through the thin leather/pleather material. I'm not trying to negate other people's reviews, but I am real shocked that this place got all 5-star reviews before this one. I mean, really, some of the words that other reviewers used to describe this place seems like they were visiting a completely different place than where we were.The one good thing I can say about this place was they definitely had some good music. They basically played an entire Lecrae album while we were there and some other techno-inspired music that had a nice beat and mellow vibe. I'll try hookah again, but probably not here.

I visited the Cave recently while in the Houston area. This a cool place for a younger crowd (21 and under) or those looking just to get out of the house. Alcohol is NOT served. The majority of customers there looked to be under 21. The music was decent. They had playing cards on most of the tables and a television. They served chicken wings and fries. Cards are accepted. I probably won't be back since I'm old enough to drink and there are bars in the are that also have hookah available.

Love this place! But just a heads-up, they don't have a sign in the plaza where the hookah lounge is located, so it's a little tricky to find. But it's so worth it! Aly the manager is so kind and opens his place until the last customers leaves and never acts pushy or rude. He also lets you test out different flavors and if you have a problem with your hookah or you just don't like the flavor, he'll switch it out for you no problem!They've also done some renovating to the place and it looks pretty nice now. New couches and tv's at every corner of the lounge, plus they've added some nice decor to the walls. Only complaint I have is the music they play. Aly lets this amateur DJ come in every once in a while to play and test out his music, but it's just so loud and overbearing sometimes. It's hard to have conversations when the DJ is there...But besides that, I would highly recommend!

Checked the reviews and decided to go here. They only have a sign on the door so we had a hard time locating it. We called and found out it was near a computer store which we saw bc it has a sign that was lit. We're in town from SC, and just wanted some place to hang out after golfing (TopGolf lol). We arrived around 11:30, they close at 1AM. It's posted on yelp and the door. As we walked in there are 3 guys Judy sitting around smoking hookah. We look around and see no employees, so at this point we have no clue if it's seat yourself. Finally, one of the guys smoking hookah walks up and says, "Hey guys we're closing at 12 tonight. You can still get a hookah ($16), but we're going to close at 12!" By this time it's 1139, I was so annoyed bc thats just not enough time to enjoy a hookah. By the time we got it, it would probably be 1145. No thanks!

I love it here the vibes are immaculateprices are very reasonable and it's very chill inside I recommend going .

Place: very cramped/music was loud af for a Tuesday night Hookah: taste was great but price was ridiculous for ONE Overall: friend and I wouldn't come back but it was an okay experience since we're not from this area.

I love the environment of this place. Their hookah is amazing and they also play good music. The owner was so amazing he went to the store to buy my friend a Red Bull because he was sold out. It was really clean in there too. Amazing customer service will come again!

I am so glad this place is open during pandemic and following all the SOP's. The person serving us made sure all the tables are wiped before we sat down. Their hookah's are excellent, flavorsome and long lasting. The guy serving us ensured multiple times wether we needed anything else. Only if they served tea/smoothies or shakes. Would love to come back again. Great job.

The Cave Hookah Lounge is one of my favorite places to chill. The owner is very welcoming and friendly. The staff member DeAndre is very nice as well.
