Situated between a bar and a discount liquor store, this hookah bar attracts all walks of life; freaks, geeks, preps and even the occasional businessman flock here to puff on a variety of flavored tobaccos.

Behind a cloud of smoke you can make out the interior's deep burgundy tone. The unforgiving backless bench seating makes it hard to keep distance between you and fellow smokers, making it seem as though there's one big conversation occurring throughout the space.

You can choose from 25 different flavors of tobacco, including coconut, rose, mint, mandarin and cappuccino. Regular tobacco will cost you $10; for a longer smoking stint, ask one of the Janis Joplin look-alike waitresses for a hookah of the premium stuff ($13) and a refill ($5). If you don't know which flavor best suits your palate, the waitstaff is always prepared with a suggestion.

As the saying goes, smoke 'em if you got 'em. This establishment is one of the few, if not only, places that is cigarette-smoker friendly. Patrons are also encouraged to bring their favorite CDs to play for the entire bar. Be courteous with your selection though; hardcore rap may be disruptive to the relaxing atmosphere.
