    In the side room, two hookahs, chess and some sodas.

    My favorite hookah spot I've ever been to. Omar and Yousef always greet me with a smile and have great energy. Bowls are packed good, and coals are delivered regularly. I also love the style of help yourself to the drinks and checkout at the end. The ambiance has improved after the recent remodel, but the place was amazing before too. I love coming here to play cards or chess with my friends. Love this place!!

    Anybody who knows me, knows how much I love hookah. When I first walked in I was greeted by the friendly staff and instantly loved the vibe. Everyone was having a good sesh with their friends on a Saturday night. We immediately sat, played card games, hit it for a good 2 hours. Eventually we got hungry and the owner recommended us places to eat nearby during late hours as well. We needed a hookah lounge with amazing service and a trendy vibe. This was my first time and I'll definitely be back for more. I appreciate the hospitality from all the staff, walking around to check on the coals or any other needs. There are drinks and ice cream as well, some candy. Thank you Hayati! Did I forget to mention, it's super cute in there! Picturesque.

    I went to Hayati this past Saturday night with a friend of mine. I've been to many lounges around the Bay Area and I look for a few things: Hookah quality, service, cleanliness. Hayati definitely had everything I was looking for! Their decor is super chill and cute. Its giving tropics, maybe on an island. Their hookah hit pretty good, it lasted almost 2 hours before we asked for a refill. That's a solid bowl. The workers were super attentive, always asking us if the hookah was good, if we needed anything, or if we wanted more charcoal. We asked for their favorite flavors and went with those. I believe we had paan/double apple for one hookah and paan/sunrise for the other hookah. Both were amazing. Their interior decor was super modern and cute, everything went well together. Snacks and drinks were available. Restrooms were CLEAN. The owner, Omar, was really sweet and genuinely a nice guy. I felt safe at his lounge. I will definitely come back!

    Omar is the best! Hayati is one of the best hookah lounges in the Bay Area for Arabic speakers who might be a little homesick. With incredible flavors and outstanding service, the ambiance and service are what make Hayati so much better. The dimmed light and incredible music make the environment intimate and give it a fantastic Middle Eastern/Arab-esque vibe. I'll definitely drive out to Berkeley from San Fransisco more often just to spend time here. I can see myself doing homework and studying out here as well. it's a 10/10 vibe and the location is amazing. It's very close to plenty of great restaurants, Hayati is the spot.

    Everything about this place is great. The service, the hookah, the vibes & aesthetics. It's rare to see a cute spot like this in the Bay Area. I'm impressed and definitely my place for hookah now.

    Great hookah. A bit too cold tho. I wish they would turn up the heater a bit so it's more comfortable here.

    Omar made my friends and I a couple of mixes and they were tasty and the vibe of the lounge was chill.

The music and atmosphere definitely set me back to that one Dubai nightclub hookah bar I got to enjoy back in 2021! And Man, was this such a great experience! Shout out to Yosuf ! Yosuf's hospitality and kindness definitely made me feel at home! Great service and attention to detail around comfort and service too! He definitely leads the team and has the best recommendations for first comers! Check in with him since he knows what's always up! ( I believe this gentleman was the manager or in some place responsible as he oversees the cashier!) After checking out few hookah lounges in the bay, I found myself asking this man so many more questions I never thought about getting answered for ! The selection of flavors and drinks definitely stood out to me compared to other spaces. Now, knowing this space closes at 2am for sure! Made it the most desirable to go to after the bars, to settle down and catch some more drinks! Definitely will come again since the music was good enough to dance and the flavors were enough to ask for seconds !
