Was just looking for somewhere close by for dinner. Liked the menu choices. Food & service were great! Fast & friendly. Ambiance is chill. Low lit, bar area and dining area. I'm not a smoke hookah kinda gal, but like i said it was close to where we were staying and the food was awesome. read more

What a great Happy Hour! Even on Saturday! Justice! I love you! What an exceptional lady and she made my visit all about me! I was visiting from California; just recently moved to SC and I finally found a great place for both food and drink! And the vibe of the place is amazing! Beautiful artwork and decor! Inviting places to sit with good lighting! $7 happy hour is the way to go! Justice brought me the best street tacos I've ever had! The cotija cheese was everything! She was also true Therapy! She listened to me as I talked about my family and how my mother just passed and the journey I was on. She was so attentive too. Always checking to see if I needed anything but not intrusive. I left feeling so energized by my experience. Thank you Therapy! You're a class act! read more

2/10 The hookah wasn't good at all and the music playlist was weird. There wasn't really a DJ, he was playing songs on his phone. The place was completely empty with just us and another couple which we enjoyed but we were really never checked up on. I wasn't really impressed and I don't think I'll be back. read more

Therapy Lounge - a glass of alcohol and a hook on a table - Cafes Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Oh this spot was so cute! I haven't been to this area in such a long time. Me and my friend started our business and hired 3 people so we were looking for something to help us celebrate but relax. We chose therapy lounge. I'm pretty sure it was renamed because I use to come to this spot often but everything was perfect. The staff, the people, the drinks were delish!! The food was good too. The bill wasn't super bad and the hookah was great! Everything was smooth and gave me just what I needed! Parking is also good. We came a little earlier so we were able to get a decent spot. There wasn't any door charges etc. The gratuity is included in your bill so if you aren't wanting to go to a place like that - be aware. I have no complaints and I'll most likely be back lol read more

I went here for the first time with friends after dinner. They have a selection of drinks and food and also hookah if you are into that. It is very small so not much room as this is a small lounge space. Although the drinks are tasty none of us could actually taste alcohol because it was sweet. Our waitress seemed absent minded and also although we only had drinks each ticket had automatic gratuity. read more

Therapy has a great happy hour that I would take advantage of during my in-office days at work. For those of you that are remote, they also have where you can work from there during the day. Other times, it's a nice chill vibe and great for gatherings. read more

Phase 1 seems cool, but phase 2 was a vibe! Drinks and service were top notch. It was dark and chill, you can dress casual! Honestly, what I liked the most was the tv screens matching the dj. Any time he mixed a new song or switched, the video would too! Drinks were tasty, tacos were even better and I am a drinker lol' read more

Therapy Lounge - Cafes Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

First time visitor. Attended a game watching party. When we arrived the venue hadn't opened yet, but we were there and hungry. The owners saw our disappointment and opened early to accommodate us. The spot has an amazing vibe. Very chill and chic. the art throughout the location. The service was good. Attentive and accommodating. The shrimp tacos were delish. I switched out what originally came on them and that proved to be a good move. The ox tail dinner portion was generous. The tails had a spice on them that I didn't expect. Not sure I'd try them again. I didn't expect to find creme brûlée on their menu. It was delish! However, it could have been a little warmer. Overall, we had a lovely outing there and would def return. BOB read more

This gem has been standing in the Clairmont/Briarcliff area for years and has been consistent over the years. We came during Happy Hour ($6 drinks, $15 hookah). The drinks were well executed and the hookah was solid. The atmosphere of the bar is very laid back. You'll see people coming to relax and enjoy good conversations with friends. read more

Therapy Lounge - Cafes Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

A cozy (small) lounge that has hookah, drinks & East African + American cuisine. Def a cute spot to hit up before you go to the real club. Customer service was courteous & the music was from 2005, but Ima "old head" so I liked it lol. I would come here again if I was bored or lonely. read more

It took a minute for us to be seen, it's surprising giving it's a small lounge and everyone were gauged in conversation even the bartenders but once our waitresses finally showed up they were so pleasant to speak with! The Food isn't worth the price however the HOOKAH was amazing and long lasting read more

Love this spot for a nice chill vibe with great drinks, food, and hookah! I typically go for happy hour when it's not very packed.

Nice small little nook I found one evening. There was actually seating available right away which I was worried about at first, because the outside tables were full. The server was very nice and the menu had a good selection of foods Ethiopian food I believe mixed with American food. I had their hummus which was really good the bread they give as well was great. The music was just loud enough not overbearing so it's a good spot for meetings, dates etc. Overall I would definitely return again read more

This is a decent weekday spot if you're in a small group. I stopped by here on a Tuesday night with a party of 5. Surprisingly we were seated immediately considering how small the establishment is as a whole. While we were seated immediately, there's limited seating for large groups. They specialize in hookah, drinks and food. Unfortunately the tacos we ordered were dry and overcooked. I would definitely say come for the drinks and enjoy the atmosphere. But don't come hungry lol. I believe the food may be prepared at one of the restaurants next door within the plaza as we saw our waitress leave the building and come back in with a crate full of plates. Their drinks are the best thing there. The pomegranate margarita and devil's margarita are my picks. read more

Therapy Lounge - Pitcher of devil's margarita - Cafes Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Comfortable, casual, cozy atmosphere with a chill vibe. My best friend and I went at about 11 p.m. on a Saturday night. We were immediately sat in the back booth. We declined the hookah experience but both opted for margaritas. I had the Jalapeño Mango margarita and he had the Cadillac. Mine was a 10 out of 10. His was a little strong but good nonetheless. The drink prices were a little high for the serving size, but with no cover charge nor parking fee, it's worth it. We ordered lemon pepper wings and fries. The food was hot and fresh. The fries were delish. All the while, the DJ played a mix of early 2000s hip hop. The music filled the room but wasn't so loud you couldn't carry a conversation with your party. This is a great spot nestled in the Druid Hills area if you're looking for a chill date night option or a place to hang with a small group of friends. If you're sensitive to hookah smoke, opt for outdoor seating. read more

*Response to the owner* Hey Tamar, I'm sorry but I didn't lie about anything I posted. This encounter actually happened BEFORE you fired those 3 employees and I don't need to act like I don't know who they are. If you reviewed the tapes then you should know that your bar was full and I would've had to sit next to 2 large guys OR 1 large guy and your boyfriend (you and him should've moved instead of making a guest move but anyways..). My review falls under the 1st option: 1. Actual negative feedback about YOUR business or somewhere YOU dropped the ball during their experience with YOU. Regardless of who you fired, I would've came back if I wasn't embarrassed by the owner. My problem is with my experience with you personally. Since you feel like I'm associated with others you did not give me the same courtesy as you would for another guest who had a negative experience. And for that, you are wrong. I never had any intention of returning to your establishment. I just wanted people to know the TRUTH of how you operate. Congrats on your 10 years though. You are a pleasure to know when I'm not on your bad side. You have a way of disrespecting those who don't deserve it. Take Care. read more

I enjoyed my visit to Therapy Lounge. I found out about this low key spot from I Love Food ATL! I met with one of my clients and we both enjoyed our experience. The food was freshly prepared and tasty. I had salmon and she had wings. The salmon was seasoned to perfection! The hookah was good and they allowed us to mix and match flavors, even on refill. Additionally, the service we received was phenomenal! Our waiter was very attentive and checked in to make sure we were good the entire evening. This is a great low key spot located in the Druid Hills area. I often meet my clients at my office space however, we wanted to grab some food and I am so happy that we chose Therapy! read more

This place is pretty cool. I went there one night because it's not far from my place. I would go here if I didn't feel like driving far to get a couple of drinks. The hookah is a little pricey but it is good and the staff is pretty helpful overall. The place is a little small but a perfect place to bring one or two people if you just want to go to a chill spot. read more

Therapy Lounge - Dry Martini & a Hookah - Cafes Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The so called owner (Tamar) and her Brother (Getta) are the worse. Their customer service is awful. I would NOT recommend this place. Find a spot that has more class, better drinks, better hookahs, and better customer service. Save your time and your money! They would rather give bad customer service than satisfy their customer. Very rude. Seriously. read more

Hey Tamar! I couldn't directly apply to your comment because yelp would not allow me to do so, so i will leave another one. First things first, no, thankYOU, for taking the time out of your busy schedule as a lounge owner to reply to negative comments.. it speaks volume. Next off how exactly do you accuse me of having inaccuracies on MY experience when you were not there? In fact I requested the owner numerous times and the only way you could be reached was via a phone call in order to instruct the chef not to remake my food. Everything you stated was hearsay because again you were not there and you're getting your information from your employees and or video footage which I'm sure did not have audio and now insinuating the PAYING customer is "inaccurate" as again someone who was not there. You mentioned that my companion and I brought in outside drinks which is against store policy and when informed of this I had an attitude. First of all, it was my first time there and we were not familiar with the lounges policy. NOT TO MENTION, ONLY ONE OF US WAS NOTIFIED of this rule, in fact I was in the bathroom when your staff told my friend she could not have an outside drink and she threw it out immediately after informed and she told me when I came back from the bathroom!!! Please double check your sources and cameras before you come on yelp accusing a customer for lying love . So how exactly could I have caught an attitude with staff when I wasn't the one they spoke with? Yes, she did enjoy her food and said it was good but what exactly was your point in mentioning that? The matter at hand was my experience, not hers. Instead of mentioning irrelevant factors please mention the ones of relevance, like how exactly I was offered assistance? What exactly did your staff offer to do? I wouldve excepted that mentioned since you went into such vivid detail about everything else however you couldn't because they didn't. And honestly it's really not the chefs fault because he was apologetic and said he had to clear it with you and upon his return from his phone call he said the owner said no and theres nothing that he can do. I asked if he could just remake it or return my money and he said he was given a direct order from you not to, which is when I said " so what am I supposed to do eat food off the floor?" And he shrugged and said he doesn't know and emphasized that there is nothing he can do, and now youre trying to push this narrative that I had already ate majority of my food and I dropped it on the floor, no. I will upload videos of my original plate i barely ate my food, the meal came with about 4/5 shrimps and there's 3 on the ground!!!! And my plate slipped off the cushion as I was trying to put it away. And now you're on yelp attempting to make it seem like I'm lying which is sad love because again YOU were not there and YOU are the one spreading lies. If you really took pride in your business you would focus on maximizing the customers experience and doing everything you can to make sure you're customers are satisfied with their experience. Not calling individuals who leave bad reviews inaccurate liars because I've went through these yelp reviews and I'm not the first person that YOU have pulled that liar card with. I came to your lounge excited after receiving a referral and it was my birthday!!! All I wanted was to be compensated in SOME type of way, whether it be a partial refund, remaking the order, a discount in the future, just something and you refused to allow but found the time out of your day to call me an inaccurate liar AGAIN as someone who was missing in attendance? That doesn't make sense love and I sincerely hope that in the future you spend your time prioritizing the experience of customers rather than waisting it trying to discredit the REAL, ACCURATE experience of someone who will not be back, have a great day! read more

Apparently you have to be known by the staff to get service here. I patiently sat at the bar and had employees walk by without taking my order. They greeted and chatted with other customers but I couldn't get a look my way or nada. Very disappointing. read more

I've been coming to Therapy for a long time and was super disappointed with my experience this time. Me and a friend came and ordered hookah and drinks. Our waitress was not attentive and we basically had to flag her down multiple times for our check. Almost immediately after I signed the check the waitress came to our table and said "we have people waiting for a table and if you're not spending money then you'll have to leave". I literally still had half a drink left and there was not a ton of people standing around waiting for tables so we were very shocked that we were basically being kicked out so suddenly. I'm used to great service from this establishment so this experience was unfortunate. Do better . read more

Hooka lounge with a surprising array of food and beverage options. I used to only stop by for the hooka, $20/half off happy hour. It's good & they're good about rotating coals. The food floored me! All wettest food tho the space is Habesha/Eritrean owned....Who'd thought my favorite Salmon burger would be from a hooka lounge ha! I love the atmosphere. Dimly lit with gaudi decor so it gives off that old romance vibe. Clientele is really diverse; of course lots of first gen immigrants from the horn and arabs. The place stays at a warm hum, nvr loud. Most ppl chat and work on their laptops. I've been here multiple times on various timetables so to disclose: NO food on mondays. The atmosphere read more

This place is a gem. Great music but low enough you can still pleasantly converse. Good drinks with decent pricing and a lovely atmosphere.

My friends and I went down to Atlanta for the weekend to celebrate my 46th birthday while visiting a friend who just moved there. We ended up at Therapy Lounge on Saturday night and had an amazing time. We had drinks and hookah and received excellent service. The staff was friendly and attentive and we got our drinks pretty quickly. Everyone in the lounge was having a pretty great time. The energetic and positive vibes of the place was contagious. read more

I went here for happy hour. They're drinks and hookah are good, and the price you can't beat. I ordered calamari and there was barely any calamari. Mostly fried bread crumbs and jalapeños. The service was poor. The bartenders/waitress did not come to check on me. I had to wave them down whenever I needed something. They were smoking hookah and having long conversations with what seemed like "regular" patrons. read more

Hookah is smooth and perfect. Probably the best I've had. I've been here multiple times and it has never failed me. The prices are higher than what you may see around the area from other lounges at $20. Water should be free, on tap. They do charge $3 for a bottle which is strange -- definitely need to change that. Still a better hookah spot! read more

Honestly, therapy never disappoints! First time after the covid situation and we had a great time just like pre covid times. The staff was kind & fun, great music & an awesome vibe. My friends & I had a great time, thank you! (: read more

Therapy is a cute coffee shop turned hookah lounge by night. Located amongst 4 or 5 other hookah lounges what stands out is this spot is much smaller, intimate and cozy. The music is set just at the perfect volume so you can have conversations about the upcoming elections over creamy coffee and delicious desserts. I have been here about 4 or 5 times and I've enjoyed each time. I always get the tiramisu ($4.50) and a nice cappuccino to go along with my tiramisu.. and for dessert (yes the real dessert) I get a hookah! Most recently Ive fallin in love with their "house" flavor hookah.. after having a month long hiatus and bad experience with the harshness of certain hookahs Therapy's hookah was pleasantly smooth and smoked AMAZINGLY. So much so that my cousin who hates hookah was seriously tempted to have a go at it. If your really hungry whats neat is Bahel (Ethiopian restaurant) next door delivers! So you can have your lunch, coffee, dessert and hookah fix all at one setting! One thing I always found exceptional about Therapy is their staff. The ladies are really sweet and attentive! Nice atmosphere and sexy lounge atmosphere at night. They dim the lights completely so it plays for a nice lil coffee date.. they also have cute closed off seats in the back for privacy so thats a plus ;)! read more

My girlfriends and I checked out this place the other night. Two of us had never done hookah before and the other was new to it. But we figured it would be fun to try something different and get some dessert after dinner. This place is part of small strip of stores with a snug parking lot. We were lucky to find a spot when we pulled in around 8:30p on a Friday night. We were also lucky to get a table inside! The three of us shared a both that I think was really meant for two. The first thing I noticed was their dessert case, because dessert! So after my friends decided on a flavor of Hookah (Queen of Sex??) we all picked a treat. One went for the creme brûlée and ate every bite! The other got the chocolate raspberry cake, which had layers and quite a bit going on. It was a circular cake about 3 inches tall and 2 inches wide and seemed to have two layers - a spongecake on the bottom and chocolate mousse on top with a raspberry glaze to top it off. But this ended up being inaccurate. The bottom half is actually an outer ring of sponge cake filled with the top layer. The top layer seemed to be a dense chocolate cake. My friend wasn't crazy about the sponge cake part or the layer of raspberry on top, but she can be a picky eater sometimes. I went with the chocolate mousse with whipped cream on top. The whipped cream was a little weird - very dense and had a weird aftertaste. Maybe it wasn't whipped cream at all?? The serving of mousse is quite generous, but was a tiny bit too sweet for my tastes. Having a smaller portion or having it paired with a fruit might have been nice! read more
