Cairo has got to be one of my favorite hookah lounges! The staff are so friendly and the bouncer had my back without my friends even asking if someone was bothering us. They had great music with a live DJ! Overall the vibe is great! Will definitely be back with more friends! There is a cover charge of $10 at the door. But also it is BYOB. They do serve food if you have an appetite. Will have to check that out one day. read more

Awesome place!!! Went there and decided to get a hookah for my home as well !! Weekends r great at Cairo

Very unprofessionally made hookah. I smoke a lot of hookah and I know when I am served bad quality hookah. First of all, they used self lighting charcoal tablets on my hookah. But I saw other customers being served normal coal. Service was slow and inattentive. When asked to change coal, they initially refused, saying that the tobacco is no longer good. I know when it's time to change the head. No need to force me. Never going back again! read more

Worst hookah lounge ever Customer service is horrible !! Dj was playing old songs They couldn't stop bothering me with their unknown and weird rules like we were five and each one of us had to pay $10 at the entry and then I ordered one hookah for me and my friends but they said I should have at least two hookah because of the rules !! Finally one of them came to me and said each of us should order whatever not less than $10 read more

Hookah is good, one of the best hookah in town. The other places usually have a bad after taste or become really light quickly. Food is also great! I had their Turkish coffee and it really woke me up! Good ambiance too! Loved the ceiling decor! read more

My husband and I went to smoke hookah today and were turned away because he had a military ID. The guy said that they don't except them because you can clearly fake a military ID. Except, you can't. He told us that we'd get a discount with the ID but my husband couldn't use his ID to show that he was 21, even though it clearly states that he is. read more

I had a great time here with good music, flavors and chill environment! I'd definitely recommend as a good place for meetings or the relax with friends. read more

Cairo Hookah Lounge - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I was at Cairo last night and there were multiple parties complaining about one group that were using racial slurs and making others uncomfortable and unable to enjoy theirselves in this establishment. I love Cairo REGULARLY but last night was an eye opener and I won't come back or recommend this establishment to anyone because of the way things were "handled". Following this thread of comments about it just coo-berates Ashley L.'s story there are slurs being used and support for it I won't tolerate. It also is funny how people can be so brave behind their fingers typing but are very quiet when it's in the moment; let's not be internet thugs. read more

This place has such a good vibe. The crowd here is very friendly and very humble...The customer service is awesome! My favorite is the pineapple flavor hookah. Will definitely be back here again!!! read more

This place is great, nice comfortable, laid back spot, great atmosphere for different occasions . The turn up real nice on the weekends and the hookah are worth it. Tea is real nice too if you want to chill on other week nights when you just want to lounge out. read more

The only reason they're getting 2 stars is because they used to be really good before, they would have great hookah, were reasonably priced, and had a great DJ who would play good dancing music. Second they NEVER rip you off with the hookah, the flavor lasts literally forever. I'm only coming back during their happy hour time to smoke never again at night. They used to have great DJ who'd play good music, and the ambiance would just be fun party like. But now they've added a cover charge and on top have made it mandatory to get hookah as well, even after paying the charge, which in my opinion is a big rip off. I love the staff that works there, the manager can some times be rude on the serving customers and getting their requests as well. read more

Horrible service. Walked in the place the owner walked up to us and asked to smell my water bottle asking if it's "alcohol". Every single 4 seconds he kept walking up to my party and I asking if we were ready to order. Finally we got up without ordering and left. Save yourself some time In your day by going to another hookah place cause this one is an utter and complete waste of time. read more

I'm disgusted and disappointed in the service received and will never come here again. I chose to come celebrate my birthday here with some girlfriends. We were seated in a disgusting back room, no one came to take our order and when we spoke to the owner he did nothing to rectify the situation. This place is not worth visiting. read more

The owner is always go wonderful! He always greets me and my friends at the door and walks us to the best available spot. We came in on a busy Friday night, not a single spot available.. And he walked us to the private room, asked a group of guys to consolidate to a single couch so that we could have a place to sit. He always comes by to check on us.. And even moved us out to the public area when we wanted to people watch.. (: Great energy here. Mixes are great (I recommend watermelon mint-tastes like bubble gum). BYOB is an added bonus, so we can bring whatever we are in the mood for, and if you make friends with others-they might just give you a few shots of their 1800. (; The room isn't smokey at all because they gave an awesome vent system and the music is great too! Sat night he had 2 DJs - one for rap/techno/pop and another to mix Arabic beats. Couches are ...worn in and...cozy. Very chill. No need to dress up but you don't want to look out of place either. Lots of college students come here. I think this place gets a lot of regulars besides me. :P Looking for a relaxing night with your friends at a hookah lounge (that isn't outdoors) I recommend this place. Love it! read more

Haven't been to many hookah spots. I started going here, because I have a buddy that djs there on certain nights. The manager is always upbeat, and very quick on getting you situated. Music : very hip. Mixture if hip hop and pop. Some house music. Music videos play on a big flat screen in the front. The couches are very comfy, and the venue is always clean. Coals are changed routinely throughout the night. And the best part it's BYOB! Warning: Service can be a little slow at times when trying to close out, so just walk up to the bar top to get your bill. read more

Worse place for hookah and the service is terrible. I would write a lot more but I think my rating will explain a lot.

Can't get enough of Cairo! Per my last review I see the couches were replaced and a little part of me convinced myself it was because of my review lol. This time I brought more friends and tried the food and when I say I will happily uber or drive or ride or take a plane to get their chicken wings and fries...I MEAN IT!!! They are sooooo good. They were fresh and juicy! Their were a lot of good renovations since I visited last time! The chiller on the pipe was so cold and stayed cold for surprisingly over an hour! The music was a good mix and it is still a great place to just relax. The only reason I am giving Cairo 4 stars is because getting my coals changed or shifted kept taking extremely long. But when I finally complained to the owner he handled it promptly. I plan to bring everyone I know to Cairo! read more

Had a great time at Cairo. One of the best hookah spots in North Dallas. Definitely a must if you're in the area

Very cool and laid back spot. The owner was nice and came and said hello. Very attentive staff. I went on a late Sunday night, and though it wasn't crowded, it was still a hot spot for 10:30 on a Sunday. I had the one night stand with and ice hose and it had a great flavor. I would probably do the ice base next time though. The ambiance was relaxed and sexy. I will definitely be returning! read more

It's a VIBE... laid back. Staff is awesome and very attentive. Will be back to continue my birthday turn up.

The food here is SO good, I was not expecting it to be so good because most hookah places have pretty average food but NOT at Cairo Hookah place. The Turkish coffee and tea were also really good! We will definitely be back. read more

Great place for some good hookah and drinks. Nice chill hangout place with friends. They also have belly dance on certain days. Nice fresh juices available read more

Last night was so much lit here.one of the best dj in town Music is fab here. Food was excellent. Only thing i felt little pricey is hookah flavors in-compare to other hookah clubs, but then ambience and belly dancer will make up for the little extra price.overall great place for weekend nite to just enjoy great music & hookah. read more

Great experience. The security at the door was literally the nicest bouncer I've ever met. The owner, Khaled, took care of my friends and me all night. Very reasonable prices, great service, great vibe. 5/5. I'll be back. read more

This place is so cool. It took my hookah virginity and well since then I've been hooked. When you walk in it's such a neat atmosphere. The service here is decent and the owner is a really nice guy. ( he walks around checking up on everyone ) I like coming here on the weekdays because the weekends are really crazy busy and loud. ( but you if that's your thing then more power to you ) read more

There was a hole in the couch and the ventilation is not good. But the music is nice and the service is nicer. Also it's BYOB and there are TONS of big screen HDTV's. Otherwise, they need to offer non-tobacco hookahs such as fruit. Overall, it would have been better with a belly dancer. read more

Came here with a friend and as soon as we walked in we were charged to enter. $10 per person which is odd since we didn't have liquor. We sat down and were instantly helped and the hookah came fast. They were very attentive and the bathroom was clean. The music is very diverse which we really enjoyed the DJ. read more

My first time here and my second hookah experience. Decided to meet up with a few friends here. This place is very chill. I tried the guava, watermelon and some other mint flavor and I'd have to say the watermelon was the best of all three. I didn't stay long because it was getting very hot and humid and smokey..surprise, surprise! So we decided to leave. The workers there are very friendly and came by to check on us a couple of times. They offer food and I think it's BYOB so that should be a plus for some people. Hookah just isn't my thing so i probably won't return..it actually made me lightheaded but I'm guessing that's normal. But if I did, I would like to try the orange-raspberry flavor next time. It just sounds refreshing..but I don't think smoking could ever be thought of as refreshing hehe :P read more

Very nice chill place to go smoke, lay back, and have a good time. This was my second visit here. The only thing that sucked this time was we got skipped for someone who knew somebody. So we had to sit at the bar for a while but he came back n got us a good section. Servers are always helpful n all over the place. Food was just ok. Ordered steak quesadillas but apparently they thought all I wanted was veggies. Owner is very nice and making sure ur good. I'll be back soon. But maybe I'll eat before! read more

This is probably the worst hookah place I've ever been, customer service is so bad... I'm from Austin and the hookahs over there is perfect, so disappointed... read more

The service was delayed. Owner was rude. The hookah wasn't anything special. The decor on the wall was impressive.

First time at this Hookha Lounge..Came from Cali to celebrate with my Daughter and her friends.. Where do I start place was lit..The atmosphere was lit. The DJ was lit.. The STAFF WAS AMAZING AND ACCOMODATING. I would recommend if you ever come to TEXAS make sure you stop at Cairo you will not be dissapointed...Mujo was very helpful while I was here.. read more

The hookahs are great but the music is weird. Justin Timberlake and Drake is not hookaish.... Just saying. However we had overly gracious and concerned service. Very suggestive and took care in their tasks. I would recommend and return with a large group for another night. Yall get it together with that music though. read more

Cairo Hookah Lounge - Pineapple hookah - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Very clean on the inside. Owner was very nice and accommodating to me. Hookah was very well priced.

Ive been here a few times with friends who enjoy hookah. I'm not really a fan of it but the place is pretty decent. I've heard their hookah flavors are good and my friends seem to like it. I enjoyed the chill environment during the day and the music at night which is good 90% of the time. Also, it's a fun place to come with a lot of friends on a weekend night if some of them want to enjoy hookah and loud music. It's super loud on weekend nights though so not the best place to have a conversation. The food next door is pretty decent as well. The fries can be extremely salty so beware. It's a hit or miss most days. read more

After going to the owners other club and not getting any service we came here by his suggestion and got waited on immediately and had an awesome time! We will definitely come back. We loved the $2 ice tips. Tried peach cobbler and sex on the beach with mint. Peach cobbler is highly recommended! read more

Let's just say this BYOB mean "Bring Your Own Bucks" because they will nickel and dime you. My friend and I tried this location because they were the only hookah bar open on Christmas Eve and it will definitely be our last. Music: What's that? We were there over 3 hours and never heard any music. Service: Prompt and very attentive (there were only 10 people in the entire place) Pricing: We get our tab and notice a $3 each byob fee, $5 ice fee, $5 fee to use beer opener, $8 service fee. That's an extra $24 on the tab before you add in a tip. We told our waiter that the menu doesn't state any additional charge, but the $3 boyb, so what's with all the hidden fees. He then stated he apologies and would see about taking off the ice and beer opener fee, then brings us back the same ticket/same price and ask if we'd like a refill. No thank you, we're headed to uptown. All we could do was laugh at ourselves for getting hustled.This place is a rip-off. They have a detailed price menu of a full variety of options for hookah and finger food. The also have a detailed list of things to do and not to do: 1.Do not Smoke if you stand up and get lightheaded. 2 Do not Smoke if you are pregnant. 3. Do not Smoke if you have donated plasma or blood. 4.Do not Smoke if you use other drugs and etc (the list is long) BUT THEY AREN'T AS DETAILED ON THE HIDDEN FEES. Please bring a few extra "Bucks" for the extra fees at this byob. read more

Should definitely try their pineapple bowl (ask for complimentary Mistique Tip and Natural Charcoal). Very prompt service, nice big TV's. Noise/Music level are low/medium and allow for a good conversation. The service is very prompt. A little pricey, but totally worth it. You can bring your own alcohol for extra $3/person. Minus one star for their billing - they include tip @8.5% in the bill, and then add a tip line again on the final bill. Minor detail, but something to be aware of. read more

Awesome place, very friendly. Can be too many kids there late on fridays/saturdays. A bit pricey, but I get that they have to pay the rent. I recommend happy hour there. read more
