Habibi’s Lounge

Habibi’s Lounge is a hookah lounge at 1217A Commonwealth Avenue in Allston. The visit centers on choosing a hookah and spending time with your group, with food, drinks and music also part of the offering. The lounge advertises live music on Friday and Sunday, so check the schedule if you’re choosing a night around entertainment.

This is a 21-plus venue, and you’ll need accepted government-issued photo identification. The lounge’s policy is a minimum of one hookah for every three people, useful to know before deciding how large a group to bring. Service begins in the afternoon and runs late, with later closing on Friday and Saturday. Review the venue’s entry rules before visiting, particularly if you’re traveling with identification issued outside the United States.
