Passion fruit margarita

Dope spot music was great , service was attentive and quick ! Drinks and food wonderful will def come back !! Hookah selection is vast and unique.

Blue Hawaiian

This place has been on my hit list for at least a year, I ended up going alone on a Friday night around 10pm, I was sat in the back, in the over flow lounge area, nice decor and vibe inside. They were playing a mix of hip hop, r&b, reggae and today's hits. I had blue mist hookah and they kept changing the coal , which I loved, most places charge extra for coal. I had the Blue Hawaiian & Blue Long Island drinks , strong & good. The cheeseburger egg rolls were yummy but the shrimp quesadila was bland. My only complaint is they weren't attentive to me , I guess because I was alone, I had to keep flagging down the waitress and she kept saying "huh, huh"? My bill was over $100, could of been nicer to me. They take the tip out automatically, so she didn't need to make an effort in customer service. Maybe I'll visit again but never alone.

Hookah service was great

Drinks were really good and vibes were fun would definitely recommend would recommend blue mist hookah flavor

Sugar N Coal is a charming Hookah lounge and dessert on Woodhaven. The music is great, the mocktails were wonderful. I enjoyed the flavored hookah. The desserts were good; service was great! We had dinner with friends at Aroma, next door, then headed to Sugar N Coal for desserts and to hang out. We got to enjoy a semi enclosed lounge. I loved the private space. The chandeliers plus the beautiful drinks gave this place a trendy vibe. I really enjoyed the mango, pineapple and mint shisha. You could really taste the mango and the mint hookah. It was so fun to relax and hang out with friends on the soft couches. The strawberry shortcake dessert with waffles was the best one. I loved the crisp waffles and the strawberry ice cream. Smores shake- the roasted marshmallows were the best part! Rashmalai Tres Leche- Rashmalai cake with 3 milks. This was interesting. Rashmalai is a cheese cake soaked in cardamom flavored cream. This version of Rashmalai tres leche was different. Parle G Over the Top Ice Cream Cake- vanilla, cookies and cream, chocolate ice cream with Parle G cookies. This was ok. Drinks: Lychee martini- it was so refreshing and so pretty! I loved the orchid in this drink! The white mojito - had lychee, mango, guava and strawberry. It was so refreshing that K drained it in minutes. I would def return for the drinks and the strawberry shortcake waffles.

Masala cheese fries

I've been dying to come here since I heard abt it last Halloween. So, I finally went last night. The Rasmalai Tres Leches ($11) was amazing! It wasn't too sweet, it was perfectly moist. I loved the Pistachio addition (my fave nut) & the whipped cream. I'd go back just for this dessert. The steak ($25) was kinda tough & the upper layer was too burnt. It was spicy & decent otherwise. The masala cheese fries ($6) were really good. It does have a strong taste tho so, it's not for everyone. The beef tacos ($10) were ok but we found a hair in 1 of them. The Loaded Nachos were so good ($10.50)! My litchitini ($6) was great! I heard the hookah is great as well. 2nd time here & they were outta the Loaded Nachos, which was pretty disappointing. So, my cousin got the Chicken n Waffles ($13) instead. The chicken in it is really good. I just think Chicken n Waffles is a weird mix, esp cuz of the syrup. I just hate sweet meat. The litchitini ($6) is good as usual. The Nutella Cosmopolitan Shake ($13) was ok, not worth the price imo. They were outta the Le Jardin De Verre so I got the Rasmalai Tres Leches ($11) again. It was great as usual. The Nutella Cheesecake Waffle ($11) was really good (a bit too sweet for me but it's nutella so ofc) The Mango Mocktail ($6) was really good although it had mint leaves in it, which I hate.

Hands down one of the best lounges to visit in queens. They got the best of both worlds , Hookah and desserts and also their Mocktails are really good . They desserts are out of the world , take up 15-20 minutes to come out , but truly worth the wait. The hookah flavors are great and are fair priced. They do have a happy hour!! Definitely check them out !! Ambiance- 10/10 Service - 10/10 WiFi - Yes Happy Hours - Yes , 19.99 hookah and Appetizer Parking - Street Halal

Shisha
Wendy R.

After a doctor's appointment one day, went to eat Indian food and Sugan N Coal for dessert and a shisha session. It was a Monday afternoon so it wasn't busy. Had some masala chai, ras malai. The server was attentive and the hookah boy had great recommendations. Ambiance is the same and glad to see that they're consistent.

Sugarcane Colada and Chicken Wings (3.5/5 for the bev, 3.5/5 for the wings because they'll go fast)
Alphanso J.

Hanging out with family, we decided to get something to eat and try a new place, courtesy of tik tok. This is where we said l, let's see what Queens has to offer. Next thing you know, we were enjoying all types of vibes from various birthday parties and nightlife lovers. The DJ's were rocking their sets. They knew how to keep the tempo and truly read the room. The hookah was exceptional and greatly priced with a dope selection to choose from. The food, well prepared and seasoned. Definitely go with the finger food options that are given. The drinks, they could use some improvement but they will hold you over. Maybe an extra shot or two if you really are a strong drinker. It's a tad cramp in the inside but still easy to maneuver through. It has two sides, so enough to engage with your crowd. Looking forward to the summer when the outside is open and the sweets that they are known for are all the more delicious.

This place is amazing , great service . The host went all out for us and kept the vibes up fr and never forgot our request. Would highly recommend !!!! Bring your girl especially if she love hookah what girl doesn't like hookah

Sugar N Coal's mocktails and hookah menu.
Freeyah-Knycky C.

Beautiful hookah venue with equally amazing staff. This place has the potential to become a "spot" if you know what I mean, except, at the moment without a drinks license they can only serve mocktails and adults ain't got time for that. While there the atmosphere was really fun and upbeat though, staff was extremely gracious to us so get those real drinks and I'd definitely be back. How am I able to afford four stars? See there's this thing call "great service" that gets me.... Everytime. The End.

Quick Bites
Brie F.

Sugar N Coal is such a cute spot but it's entirely too small and claustrophobic for my taste. My girlfriends took me here to celebrate my birthday. The moment we walked in I thought this is it? I was baffled because the pictures on Yelp are quite deceiving. They offer hookah, premium desserts, and quick bites that you can order from the restaurant next door. I can't believe that they do not offer any wines or spirits. Instead they created a list of mocktails. The idea is cute but when I'm out and about I'd like to have a nice cocktail with my meal. How do you smoke hookah without any libations? It beats me. We ordered a fruit shisha which ended up tipping over out of nowhere. It was exchanged for the basic shisha which pulled so smoothly. I actually preferred the basic over the fancy shisha. We also ordered a plethora of food. We had tater tots, chicken samosas, calamari, butterfly coconut shrimp, lamb chops, wings, and an assortment of cocktails The service was great. I just wish that they get a liquor license sooner than later.

New York Amazing Halal Brunch with Hookah Usually, a hookah lounge opens up after 4 p.m. If you want to hang out with your friends to have a brunch. It is usually hard to find a halal spot. It's a constant dilemma, "should we just go for dinner or lunch instead?" If those two aren't the options, we end up at a local diner or an IHop(b), but, SUGAR and COAL tackle all that and more! If you want a halal spot with great brunch options, it is THE place to go. With a great ambiance, quick service, good food, options galore, you will not be disappointed. Sugar and Coal have a menu dedicated to mocktails- which I love because I want to have options! They have handpicked every mocktail on their menu and made sure each of them has its own personality without the alcohol. The best part is, this was done with an expert barista who knows their stuff. So you know your drink will be good from the first sip right down to the last. And if you are not much of a cocktail person, no problem, they have a variety the coolest milkshakes with the wildest toppings on them, you need an appetite just for the shakes alone! With shakes that have marshmallows, cake pops, donuts, cookies, who wouldn't want to come here just for the drinks? As for the food, as mentioned earlier, the options are endless, they have comfort food such as wings, mozzarella sticks, mac n cheese, and more. Sugar and Coal also offer French dessert crepes- in various flavors. They have an option of grilled food, biryanis, and western food as well. It's a perfect spot for the days when you just can't decide on one thing- which is often. Not to mention, they have hookah as well. For those who like to enjoy some hookah during the day hours to avoid the night scene, it's the perfect place to go. Sugar and Coal is not your "Traditional" brunch spot in New York City, It's an experience of its own, and definitely worth a go with your friends for a perfect brunch date!

Rasmalai Tres Leche
Cheri G.

While looking for a dessert spot I came across this place on Saturday night. Cute very small but not really... at the same time lol. They have 3 sections the main one you enter seems to be the lounge, where the DJ is and the belly dancers are. It's great and full of energy. The second area are tables seems more like a restaurant then there's the final area where the kitchen and bathroom are more like a spill over seating. (Thats where I was). They were very busy music is a good mix of Caribbean music and top 40 hip hop. Traditional belly dancer tunes and hookah. I wish they would open up the walls. You feel almost sectioned off from the main action of room 1. The belly dancers didn't leave that area. They have a full menu but we came just for the dessert I had the red velvet and oreo milkshake it was very delicious not just 'instagramable.' My cousin had the rashmalai tres leches omg that was so good the Indian flavors elevated the already classic Latin desert. I'd come back here. Also they have a large street-side outdoor seating area.

Yes you can come if all are over 21 plus. We also serve Sugar N Coal Dessert menu our in our next door restaurant Aroma for all ages. Thank you.

Im turning 18 and wanna go here for my birthday would I be able to get in? and smoke hookah?

You can get in to have the yummy desserts and virgin drinks! Yesss! Once in i don't think they will b checking to see whose smoking and i think u have to b 18 to smoke and 22 to drink! Go for it u will enjoy this place!

Do I have to yell for my friends to hear me (is the music super loud)? Also, can I play cards or ludo in there?

Yeah you can play cards, when we went we played spades. It also has an average sound level.

Does everyone have to be 21 to enter and do hookah?

In NYC you have to be 21 to have tobacco based products or smoking products including hookah.

Is it byob?

For a private parties which is on the opposite side, I believe you can(but call to be certain), however just coming there, no you can't.

I have about 11 people who are coming. Are we able to just walk in ? I've also made online reservation no one has reached out to confirm this not sure if I should just call them or just walk-in?

Walk in is fine. Have never made reservations and found a seat very quickly.

Is there hookah available during brunch days / hours?

Of course! See you then!

Is there an age restriction & do they serve alcohol?

21 is the age to purchase hookah and tobacco products in NYC. They do NOT serve alcoholic drinks but they do have mocktails

Is there liquor available? I see a mix of "no" and "yes, there's a separate bar".

Sorry we do not serve alcohol. Mocktails non alcoholic drinks

Is there an age restriction? I want to bring my friend here for her 20th birthday.

All Lounges in NY are now 21+. i believe any minor in a lounge will be a $5,000.00 fine per child just like it is for cigarettes. Someone can correct me if I am wrong though.

Is the food halal?

Yea but they have other stuff also

We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.

The room is moving, the energy is right, and it feels like a real party instead of a playlist on shuffle. Friday nights with the live drums? Different level. That's when Bembe really shows its roots. The drums add this raw, authentic feel that turns the whole night into an experience instead of just a bar stop. Now let's talk drinks -- because this one deserves its own moment: The tequila with the lime dipped in coffee grounds is surprisingly delicious. I wasn't expecting it to work... but it absolutely does. Must-drink. Non-negotiable. This is a place to dance, drink, sweat a little, and leave feeling like you actually went somewhere. Bathroom Review (2 out of 4) Safety - Bouncer presence helps a lot. You feel secure moving back there. Accessibility - Easy enough to get to, no maze or weird hallway journey. Space - Bathrooms are small and tucked way in the back. Gets cramped fast. Privacy - Sinks are outside the bathrooms, which kills the privacy a bit when it's packed.

Delaceiba cookin' up the dope vibes!…read more Came out to see the DJ, Delaceiba, and he did not disappoint! The energies he provided kept the party MOVIN'. I loved that there were congas by the ready for a quick jam sesh! My only gripe was the drinks. My first drink was an "old fashioned" and it had a bunch of raw coarse sugar at the bottom. It actually looked like a Long Island iced tea, so I'm not sure what it was. It was a bit loud, so maybe they misunderstood my order. My second drink seemed accurate, and was just fine. Anyway, I'd definitely hit this spot up again, especially if Delaceiba is in the house. Much much love Bembe!
