Extremely fun and low key spot located in EAV! I live in the area but couldn't pinpoint the "vibe" of the establishment until I saw Taye Diggs and Ayprl Jones hanging out here on their IG. After seeing it wasn't a 'stand on top of the chair' type establishment I decided to visit. My visit was around midnight on a Saturday. The lounge was empty except my date and I but - it lacked nothing. The drinks were delicious and DJ had a good mix happening. I'm not one for a large crowd so - I enjoyed the low-key atmosphere. Around 12:45a a couple of more people came in and added to the fun. Once again, no foolishness, just fun. read more

I come here every so often and it's always a good time. The place isn't really big so it's never packed and I've always had a place to sit. The drinks are strong and the music is always a good mix of 2000s-2020s hip hop n r&b. If you want to chill and l isn't to music without a crazy line or crowd it's a good spot. Also i usually buy a Groupon for drinks n hookah before i go... thank me later read more

This lounge was pretty cool. The venue is spacious, but not too big. I like the space because I really don't like going out to places with too many people. Maybe I just went on a good night, but everyone was mature and social. The DJ did a fire job, he kept the vibes going the whole night. (Gucci Mane, Lil Baby, etc. but he was able to fit in some slow jamz here and there too) My server was very polite and helpful. The hookah themselves could have lasted a little longer than they did before having to get a refill, but that's pretty much expected at any hookah bar. The bar also didn't stand out much but thats also expected when going to certain places. I overall had a great time and I could recommend this lounge to my friends and family. read more

Get the Groupon for the hookah and drink deal! I love this spot i always have a Great time here. The service is always good and they usually have some type of drink special or shots. The hookah is really good also and lasts a long time even when shared between 3-4 people. The dj plays a variety of hip hop, island and r&b music which i really enjoy. Sometimes they do have a $5 cover. read more

Great service and the hookah was really good. The bartender on Halloween night looked like a Pirate which was fantastic. Will definitely be going back again read more

Visited here the week of New Years and bought a bottle to have access to the VIP Section. I enjoyed myself & the gentleman helping us with the hookah was great. I didn't really care for their signature drinks and just stuck with traditional drinks. The DJ also took our requests so that was a plus read more

Amazing scenery -pricey -great drinks -good music ! (Hip hop , top 100 hits ) - great hookah read more

I honestly have nothing negative to say about my experience at ILounge. I purchased a voucher on Groupon that included two martinis and a hookah for two. They also had an option for four. I called ILounge before arriving just to make sure there were not any conditions to use the Groupon (Because I know How Groupon could be). The person that answered the phone was very nice, and answered all of my questions. I asked about parking, cover fee, food, and using the voucher. And everything that was answered was accurate. Kudos to the staff for great service and being knowledgeable about the business. I can't stand inconsistencies with staff. Parking was Free 99 (My favorite), with two parking lots in the back of the location. We parked in one of the parking lots that was directly behind the back door of ILounge. On Friday's and Saturdays, they have a group of guys who grill jerk chicken, jerk ribs, tilapia, and turkey wings. The plates include rice and peas, two plantains, and cabbage. The plates are between $9 and $10, if you pay cash. I also saw that they take credit too. You can also bring the outside food into the lounge. I bought a plate of ribs (pictured), and ended up grabbing a chicken plate when I left to eat for lunch the next day. The vibe inside the lounge is very intimate yet classy at the same time. We came in on the tail end of a private event featuring local artists singing and rapping (Almost like spoken word vibes NOT Atlanta HOOD TRAP rapper vibes). Our waitress Claudia took wonderful care of us. The only bad moment was a drunk lady bumping our table, and spilling my boyfriend's drink on the table and on both of our pants legs. Claudia took care of us though. She checked on us several times. She got my boyfriend a new drink, and made great recommendations. I really liked my Melon Martini the best, and the Mango hookah was good (no nasty taste), and pulled just right. Not too strong (making me feel all lightheaded, and not weak to the point where it ran out quickly. I will definitely be back with my boyfriend or even a group of friends. The bathroom was also very clean as well, which is always a plus. This is a hidden gem on Glenwood (Not the Hood part.) I say give it a shot. Also the DJay played great music and I loved how the music matched the music videos on the flat screen tv's. We turned up when Wild Thoughts came on and Cardi B Bodak Yellow, but there was still some R&B played too. It was a great night. read more

The Pros Free parking in the back of the building No cover fees into the building Good Djay and crowd Decent size drinks and hookah Affordable 10 dollar Rib and Chicken Plates Bathroom was clean Staff was very kind The Cons Limited parking space in the back due to the crowds and surrounding clubs and bars Too tiny for a lounge, I was expecting something bigger. The space would probably be the only reason why I would my rating lost a star. read more

Dj mixed it up real nice. It was my first time coming here I really enjoyed my self. Drinks and hookah was amazing I definitely will be returning read more

My boyfriend and I found a Groupon for two free drinks & a hookah while we're in Atlanta for his birthday so we thought we'd give it a chance. We called ahead and were informed they had an early event from 8-11pm which was fine with us! We went in around 11:30pm and were immediately greeted and found a seat. All the girls working were the sweetest and really attentive. The overall vibe of the place was dope. The DJ was playing awesome music with visuals on the TV. We really enjoyed ourselves and felt comfortable for it being our first time there. The place was clean & and the drinks were solid. Definitely recommend getting the Groupon to try it out! read more

We went here because another place close to it was packed and I'm so glad we did. Our waitress, Denise, was amazing and so helpful. The staff was friendly and everyone was still cautious with covid. The DJ played a wide variety of music and the lounge was definitely very intimate. I am definitely going to make this a staple place whenever I come to ATL because the vibe was great and me and my friend had the best time here. read more

We are looking for hookah places in the area abc found this place. This spot was great ! For a 21+ crowd. It was a nice small intimate space . They played new and old jams . They had $2 shots and they have hookah and a full bar . The only downside to this place is there is no food offered . You would have to go across the street or eat before . We were able to sit in a section no charge . We also didn't pay an entry fee to get in. The only thing you pay for is the drinks and hookah of your choice . We really enjoyed ourself Saturday night . Also the parking can be a hassle but you can lyft, Uber, carpool or park on the street . It's a great place for chill but fun vibes. Will definitely be going again!!!! read more

ILounge - Section view - Hookah Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Reasons I loved iLounge: Amazing hookah at $20 a pop $5 cover for damn good hip hop music to groove to Black lights made things glow Prince music videos playing on widescreens No dress code People danced, yes actually danced, no lame two stepping You get to dance in your own table area It was easy to get your own table The seats are cushioned People don't judge you for dancing however you want Great atmosphere Things they could improve on: Charge $5 for an additional charcoal for the hookah, instead of $15 for a brand new hookah Better furniture I don't see what's not to like about the place. read more

Walking in I had to pay 5 dollars at the door but was provided with a sanitary wipe and hand sanitizer. The bodyguard was extremely nice as well as the lady at the door. Once I was in and it's a nice small hookah lounge. After 30 minutes I was never acknowledged by the waiter. This night it was only about four tables, and everyone had their hookah already so, they were not bothering the waiter much. My boyfriend went to the waiter twice to ask for service as she told us to hold on aggressively. I believe the waitresses friends were at the lounge as she ignored the rest of the customers and sat and giggled with their table the entire night. After waiting another 15 minutes I decided to leave and never return. I understand that things get busy (which was not the case this time) but customer service goes a long way. In the photo you can see her in the black playing with her friends with her mask not on correctly. A tragedy. Do yourself a favor and don't bother with this place or waitress. read more

$5 at the door. I literally walked in and walked out it's tiny in there. It looks like a runway and it was so many people that there was no room to move. After hearing excuse me three times from people trying to get by, I knew it was time to go read more

My girlfriend and I were visiting from AZ and wanted to experience a little of Atlanta's nightlife. Little did we know that we were going to end up jamming to a dj crew that interacted very well with the customers vibes and music choices. We were blown away by the sax player performances to songs from moneybag, Lil baby and R&B artists. Oh yeah the Jamaican martini combined with their well maintained hookah allowed for a very long, peaceful and happy night. You would swear that the servers were trained by the ritz Carlton hotel, they were always checking on us and maintaining our station without bothering us. I could only imagine what this place is like on a Saturday! Oh yeah everyone was very friendly and positive!! read more

My friends and I (we are teens) were excited that there was Haitian food around us finally. she server was nice and we got our apaotozers ina. decent time considering there was three of us ordering. and when we ordered entrees, the huge family that came in 30 minutes later got all their food first. that's not a huge deal to me but our waiter kept coming and asking if we wanted refills nicley, and didn't tell us they weren't free until we asked 2 refills later. when ur came time to pay, our food as more expensive because the menu was a old menu so I was ready to pay 18 dollars and it ended up being 23. that made me really angry but there was nothing I could do. I payed with card, there was a card fee, the added a top of 7 dollars without my choice, and charged for a tiny peachtree dish of pickles. food was good but they really exploited us and I'm disappointed read more

I was looking for hookah places in ATL while visiting my baby bro and came upon this place. I loved the photos from yelp and I thought this was the safest bet compared to other places in the area. Thank you fellow yelpers for your reviews because I had a great time! Drinks were decently priced, the DJ was on point and the hookah was great! It wasn't too crowded and we were lucky enough to get a great booth for the two of us. My waitress was very attentive and even offered to go to the BBQ truck out back to deliver food to me, if this is not above and beyond, I don't know what is! I only had one night out in ATL and I was so glad it was at this place. I will definitely be back during my next visit! read more

Don't come to this place if you are expecting a huge megaplex with a large dancefloor and 2-3 bars spread out over the floor with hundreds of waitresses waiting to take your money. This is a lounge (like the name says) and it's one of my favs at the moment. I like the lay out of this spot and thd DJ spins some really good hits (old & current). I've been when it's kind of dead and i've been when it was completely packed and have not been disappointed. It's a great place to throw a party, too. They have amazing drink prices (which is almost unheard of) and the bartender doesn't give you a watered down version of the drink you really requested. I love this place! Check it out! read more

Would highly recommend this place. Such a cool vibe and great service. Corey is always is always on point serving up the drinks and hookah. The DJ is also on point you will groove the night away. read more

I went to iLounge on a Friday night to celebrate the founding of my company. I brought a group of about 15 people, we purchased two sections and bottles. THE SERVICE We arrived after 11PM (Because who in the heck arrives before that time when you have a section? Nobody!). We walk in ready to party and we were met with nothing but confusion and changed information. First the promoter didn't have the section ready. Someone was actually sitting in it. When we sat down nothing was brought to us. I had to ask several times for the hookah that comes with the section. The promotor said it didn't come with the section, and told me that if we had been here early than everything would have been setup. He said since we came late, nothing was setup and the hookahs are now $30. Each time we ordered anything, the waitress would immediately ask us for payment. I mean EVERY TIME. She treated us as if we didn't have any money and would walk out without paying. This was a slap in the face and many people in party took great offense to it. We literally had to break from dancing and relaxing to speak with a bill collector. Each time she came we tipped her 20% hoping she'd see that we will pay her. Making matters worse, she kept the change from a $100 bill for a $30 hookah. THE VENUE The lounge is basically a hallway with couches along the wall. The black lights were a nice touch. The bar is beautiful. This is a nice venue for a few happy hour drinks, but I absolutely don't recommend it for any event that involves standing or mingling. They have these clever tables with a built in hole for the hookah (so nobody drunk will knock it over). Unfortunately, the tables are tough to come behind from when you have people in the booth. the tables seem cool as an idea, but in reality they are a pain in the butt if you're wearing heels or say "That's my jam!" And want to dance. Lastly, the house DJ is horrible. I've heard better mixes on a cruise ship. The DJ is one of those who actually plays the entire song. (Face palm). Don't come here expecting to hear Top 40. You will hear all Atlanta Trap music with random "put you to sleep songs" and a set of reggae that's 15+ years old. He did not mix, match tempos, nothing! The club would have been better off paying Spotify $9.99 The bathroom was nice and clean. MY RECOMMENDATIONS This place is great if you: - only bring 3-8 people - only want to sit and not dance - don't purchase a section - plan to cash out after every single drink - don't expect great service - are ok with them only having on server on duty - wear a little white so you can glow - bring a good group of friends. Great friends have fun anywhere! read more

The music is extremely loud here for no reason at all bc it's not like ppl are dancing. The hookah was a 6, the drinks we're a 7, atmosphere a 7... So if you come with friends just plan on not talking, but you can dance though. read more

fun, cool, laid back environment. the drinks could have been better and the hookah was too tart. but other than that, it was straight! read more

Well they do not wash the dishes with anything but soapy water. I saw them doing this and that is just gross! Only get the bottled beer or risk getting someones mouth herpes ! read more

Me and my boyfriend came here last night for Valentine's Day and the vibe was nothing but good. We both got drinks they were definitely strong and we got a hookah. Overall the place was a good spot to relax and listen to some good music. read more

Honestly one of the best Hookah Lounges in ATL! Good music Great Drinks and dope atmosphere! read more

Found this place on Groupon originally. Decided to make the trip for my best friends birthday. Before our whole party showed up we were sat outside. They have a cute patio area that would have been fine to sit at except you could not hear the music. They moved us inside shortly after we ordered our hookah and our server was really nice. We had a great time. I do wish our server would have told us that we could only use two groupon per party, which I understand just wish I knew even though we told her we would be using the groupon and ordered as such. Other than that small hiccup and the sight decline in service towards the end of the night we had a great experience and would definitely return. read more

Nice spot! They play great music and have music videos playing to go with (at least the night that I went). Hookah was nice and reasonably priced! Drinks were as they should be. Smaller sized space but definitely underrated compared to all the other overhyped and overpriced spots in Atlanta. Only thing I would recommend to them is to either re-arrange their set up or to add more seating/standing area that is less awkward if they were to get popular! Other than that.. I definitely don't mind coming back :) read more

I'm a huge fan of SNL as of late and one of my favorite characters is Stefon. Stefon is a city correspondent for the weekend update played by Bill Hader, and gives advice on local places that are totally inappropriate for Seth Meyers' demographic. http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/weekend-update-stefon-on-spring/n13450/ So thats a little of what ilounge was like to me. We happened to come here on NYE after all other bars had closed and a few friends wanted to keep the party going ( I'd started yawning at that point, but w/e) I think my experience was a little different since it was on a holiday ($30 at the door and $10 drinks). It had everything... ed hardy/ affliction t shirts, skimpy dresses, heels, hookahs, Persian people, the tongue and groove crowd, 90s music videos, strobe lights, EDM/ trance, 1 bathroom, general lawlessness... So fascinating. Sat at a booth for a while, then some pornstar/ strippers sat next to us and started making out. still fascinating. So I guess i'll have to go back on a regular night to see what it's really like since I hear its open late. Thanks for the ridiculous NYE people watching until 4 or 5 am. read more

Nice vibe! Loved the waitress Mya - she was cute & attentive. The only thing this place is missing is a kitchen, but there is a food truck right across the street. read more

Been here a could of times and I must say the dj is always good. The drinks are always good and the crowd is always just right. They have a nice crowd but not crowded. The drinks are made well, not watery and good prices. read more

Pretty cool spot- a diverse crowd with diverse nights, and in a cool neighborhood, so you can check out a few spots in one evening. Parking on the street can usually be managed. The staff is friendly. The tunes and video feeds are cool. The decor is retro modern, kinda cool but could probably use an update. Cover is sometimes a little steep, but bear in mind that the $ is going to the entertainer for the evening. Its a cool place worth checking out, esp if you like the band or DJ playing. read more

Loved the spot. Great staff and ppl there and around it. No food there but there's a pizzeria next door. Smoke hookah, drink liquor, chug beers & party with your peers til 3am read more

I been here several times and ALWAYS an enjoyable chill experience. No fights, no drama ... just great music, great service, great vibrations, and beautiful black people. It's a great place to unwind after a long hard week ... I always leave in a better mood. read more

This was tricky to rate. The spot itself is dope with a small but nice setup & a banging DJ. Nice, clear sound & tvs throughout. They are also drink & hookah specials and a Caribbean food vendor in the back which is really good. They even had a Groupon deal at one point. The problem is its never crowded or full or close to it which makes it as little dull. It is a great place to host a party because it doesn't take a lot to get the party started with your friends! The DJ & servers are all very interactive too they just need the people. So I hope you read this & book u a party there. I don't think you'll be disappointed unless the price isn't right. 3 stars because without the crowd it's just ok. 15 is a good number but they can definitely handle more. I'm pretty sure I went on a Friday night btw read more

Cute little spot. Not to large small enough to enjoy your company and meet new ppl and be social. Bathroom was Immaculate (Well the women's) Really extremely happy about that. Also they have an outside patio in the back to hang out and socialize some more and patron watch at the neighborhood venues. Waitress was cute and friendly, no cover charge Thurs night. Will def be hanging out again. Maybe a cute venue to celebrate my bday! Cool area. read more

Passed this place in the rain and decided to stop but they were charging $20 to walk into an empty club on a Sunday!

I'm trying to be as fair as possible with this review. I was here about a month ago with a friend. First off, they have security at the front door which I don't mind, but again be fair about it. The security guard patted me down, but barely checked her purse. After we got inside, my homegirl told me that he barely looked inside her purse and that if he did, he would have noticed a few things that she couldn't have brought inside. He told that I noticed that as well. Working in the safety arena, you have to be aware of potential threats from men and women. When you get inside, it is a very nice ambiance. I had a Groupon that they had no problem honoring. The drinks and hookah were ok. I've had stronger and smoother hookah from other places. The DJ was pretty cool and on point. Other than the security issue which isn't really necessary for a small place like that, it's a cool spot. read more
