Al Narah Hookah Lounge

Love this place for smoking one of their 100’s flavors hookah flavors and they always a amazing mixed flavors they can come up for your mood! the owner Shady Is always welcoming and makes you feel like your at his house smoking, one of my favorites for sure!

Great atmosphere with great people. Great service from employees. Must me shady yasin. Really cool guy and likes to get to know is customers. The employees are really respectful. Best part is the low prices and no alcohol so don’t have to worry about people being rude. Great location near food and can order to be delivered.

the food and hookah is amazing only place that is open in day time for hookah and food

Dear Unilocal Journal,
I was looking forward to enjoying a relaxing night with some Hookah, but was disappointed by the service and the atmosphere of this establishment. There was a cover charge per person (Strike 1) and you had to purchase drinks with the hookah (Strike 2). When he asked that type of flavor of energy drink, we stated «Mango». We received an Original Flavor, thought it was a mistake, went to exchange and was told they only had one type (Strike 3). The attendant who sold the hookah and the drinks, was more preoccupied saying vulgar statements to friends than serve us, when we arrived before them (Strike 4).
The music made the atmosphere feel violent. (Strike 5) The staff did not know how to change the coals properly. It was extremely harsh. (Strike 6) There is a discount for checking in on Unilocal which they didn’t apply to my tab. (Strike 7)
If you have no choice, than yeah come here but don’t expect much.
Sincerely,
Disappointed Hookah Patron

The workers were not very nice. They never brought new coals unless we asked, which still took forever. I do not recommend this hookah bar. There is also a huge draft which makes it very hard to do any tricks at all. Terrible customer service.

Sucks! I just made an account on Unilocal to say this. This is the Worst hookah bar i have ever been! I have been to several hookah bars around the US and Middle east too! This is the worst. You all do not ho there. Extremely expensive + shitty hookah. Do not waste your time and money please.

Not only I have to pay 18 $ for a hookah there is a cover charge and I HAVE to buy a drink. Can you say wow and if there is three of us we have to get 2 hookahs. Not cool at all. This place is not for me… poor service poor hookah and loud music … They had me gone at poor hookah … Oh 2 positive things though they started using clay bowls and coco buzz coals. There are other hookah lounges. Let’s see what kings hookah and Qush hookah have to offer I heard good things.

This place seemed super sketchy. A hookah bar for grown-​ups sounds way better, but if you want to hang out with a bunch of 18 year olds, this is the place to be. I felt like needed 5 showers after I left, and like I was going to get std’s from the seats.

Awesome service, fantastic hookah and great social people!!! Bumpin music

This is by far the best hookah lounge in the NW. Amazing customer service, a wide variety of shisha with multiple brands. This is the only place that has Social Smoke which I love. A lot of hookahs and water pipes. LIVE DJ’s every weekend and it’s always busy and an energetic atmosphere. This is the MUST GO place to go with your friends!

Love the music. Pretty good parking. Kinda deep SE. Required to buy drinks with hookah. The hookah experience at Qush is much better (clay vs ceramic; can smell all the flavors, customer service is good and they’re knowledgeable) but I love the ambiance at Al Narah more. Al Narah has a whole floor layout with tons of booths (much more comfortable than the house layout of Qush that has a few rooms with really low seating and no sense of private intimacy in my opinion). The customer service at Al Narah is poor compared to Qush (I love the guys there). But I would go back to Al Narah for the private booths and hip hop music since hookah for me is more of a socializing experience than a hookah experience.

This lounge has an incredible and large amount of shisha. You have the option of choosing your own flavors or simply having the staff mix something up for you. Often times during the week the atmosphere is relaxing and nice to hang with friends. It’s also nice that weekends are usually more like a party atmosphere and can be SO fun. The different DJs are always fun and open to requests! I feel that the staff are very accomodating and it’s pretty easy to meet new people. Great place!

To all the hookah conniseures out there, be adviced, there’s a hidden treasure cove in Oregon. Serving the best shisha on the market! (starbuzz premium tobacco)

Great hookah, big selection! Only thing that kind of bit was you have to purchase a beverage. But at least bottled water is only two bucks. But it’s two people per hookah like most lounges. Nice hanging out music.

Pros– Totally bangin’ staff.
Cons– Prepubescent white boys «break dancing» to the DJ. Every time.

* This place is where under 21 people who love Jersey Shore and idolize Snooki & The Situation come and hang out (hey nothing wrong with that, I heart Snooki!).
* Awesome selection of flavored tobaccos. The Cosmopolitan flavor is the best one. If you don’t like «sweet or fruity» tobacco flavors then this is a perfect one for you.
* They have theme parties here and the first time I visited, they had a Pajama party. Many shirtless guys and girls in pajamas. I’m pretty sure no one was hooking up and they made me feel so old because I don’t think any of them was older than 25.
* You can also play with bubbles here. You inhale your hookah, hold it in your mouth (that’s what she said), blow a bubble out of a soapy plastic device on the table. It’s quite a challenge, if you are an amateur like me, most likely you will end up with a soapy mouth: D.
* They have a DJ who spins Top 40, dance music, techno, rap, and r&b.
Al Narah Hookah Lounge made me feel like I was 18 again. For a moment, I didn’t think about anything else besides the hookah, try to blow bubbles, and watching shirtless guys walk back and forth. Oh yeah, even Snooki will be jealous of me.

Had a great time, no cover when I went must have been a special event. My hookah was great no water in the hose for me, I had the white grape flavor and loved it! Plus the place was packed great atmosphere! Will be back!

I am a regular hookah smoker but after the Oregon Law passed about not being able to smoke tobacco indoors, many of my favorite hookah lounges closed down.
I was referred to Al Narah by my friend and went for the Bikini/​Beach Party event. It’s ridiculous to pay for a cover charge and be required to buy a $ 2 Kirkland brand water (beverage) in order to smoke a bowl. The hookah bowl I was given was obviously used before me. If you touch the top of the bowl, if its a new bowl it should be a bit soft. But this one was crispy and was obviously smoked before-​hand. We didn’t complain, because after we messed around with the bowl the hookah smoked fine.
After about an hour of smoking, I started to get water in the hose. I complained to the girl working there and she simply blew the water out and said, «oh no more water.» If water is getting into the hose in the first place, there is obviously something wrong with the hookah itself. I got water in my mouth multiple times. I ended up leaving and regretting spending $ 5 cover, $ 2 for Kirkland water and $ 13 for a used hookah. Also, the coals are not hookah coals at all. They are some sort of broken up barbeque coal and ash out in about 20 minutes.
