Cafe Oasis

If you’ve been around the city, or to other countries it isn’t the best hookah bar. BUT it’s what we’ve got in Binghamton and it’s a great hang spot. Friendly staff. Often crowded on weekends, small place to begin with. Couches and tables for seating. Decent hookah, good deals during certain days, and drinks. I usually prefer to come here when I just want to chill. Love the vibe of the place. I usually park in that lot near CVS though I’m probably not supposed to. No one ever says anything. In nice weather, not bad to walk.

Favorite place when I want to «go out». Comfy couches to relax with friends, plus they have a bar with great drink specials. Not only is the staff extremely friendly, but the guests are too. Everyone goes there to just laugh, have a good time, and meet some new people. Breath of fresh air from the dirty bars on the next street over where fights are constantly breaking out between frat kids. This place can get crowded since its quite popular and its often a bar you want to go to and just hangout all night before going home, you won’t feel the need to suddenly leave and bar hop like the ones crawling with out of towners and punk kids. I suggest getting there early and be ready to relax and lose track of time. Definitely a great place to check out if you want to feel safe, have some fun, and tip back a few drinks.

I and my friends have been coming here since college started. It’s been almost two great years. It’s always the best atmosphere. There’s no better place in Binghamton to wind down after a rough week. The service is always friendly and great. Bartenders like Kayam and Calven are always personable and friendly. It’s people like them who keep this place so alive an thriving. It’s a must go for anyone in the area looking for a great time.

Great drink specials and you’re always guaranteed a chill night there. It gets really busy on weekends so you might find it hard to get good seats for you and your group. I definitely recommend going on a Monday; the hookah is half off, there’s less people and the music is way better!

atmosphere was very relaxing, fun place

SUPER FUN! Always crowded but that’s only because it is awesome! Chill atmosphere with great drinks selection, too. Shout out to Saturday’s $ 3 tequila sunrises!

Love the drink specials. Cheap and plenty of parking. Tried the gummy bear flavor which wasnt impressive. It was just a bunch of fruity flavors mixed. More of a reason to stick to my favorite flavor, peach.
Young crowd, college students and possibly graduates. Perfect for pregaming before you head down the block to Dillingers.

I’ve never had hookah, (or beer for that matter), but I did come here with friends to hang out for a night. It has a very mellow, relaxing atmosphere, and the service was very friendly. I hear they have tons of beers, and many flavors of hookah to try.
Also a cool bubble wand pipe thing which you dip into the cup of soap, and blow bubbles with colored hookah in it. The best part of the night was when one of my friends tried blowing a bubble, and ended up accidentally choking on liquid soap. Haha!
If I was into beer and flavored smoke, this would be an awesome place to go regularly!

The place is relatively nice and has a good selection of beer. But the music is some charts bullshit and the hookahs are not authentic (but not healthier).
A change of music and also the lighting would improve the atmosphere a thousand fold.

I’ve heard of Café Oasis/​Hookah Bar before but hadn’t been until a couple months ago. It is definitely different than the downtown bars which I found to be refreshing. It provides a laid back atmosphere which is great for catching up with friends. Tons of beers and hookah flavors. Def worth checking out

I loathe this place. I grew up with hookahs as part of my culture, we call them nargileh, but this place doesn’t even offer tobacco to be smoked, defeating the point. They offer some sort of chemical molasses concoction that does not contain any tobacco, and thus no nicotine. It still has plenty of tar and other carcinogens we don’t even know about, but a hookah bar is supposed to be relaxing. It’s like a living room or a den, where you can relax and play cards and smoke. Not a club or lounge. Top 40 blaring kills the «exotic» vibe.
This place is anti-​authentic. It got a liquor license a year or so ago and now it’s even more callous and annoying, serving underage birthright brats their fix of beer or neon mixed drinks and «hookah like in Israel bro!»…In short, it has the worst characteristics of the kinds of hookah bars in the city that act like holding pens for underage kids who can’t drink but do anyway, except here the drinkings house-​subsidized. I went here once to see a friend play and have never been back.
Kill me.

Café Oasis is literally an Oasis in Binghamton. Where else can you go and have a nice relaxing drink and smoke delicious flavored hookah? (I like the tropicana flavor the best) The staff is friendly and the drinks are reasonably priced. I like the music selection and I always have fun when I’m here.
I had a birthday party here once and it’s a great place to have a party. There was a band, plenty of couches for all my friends and we all enjoyed ourselves. The beer selection is also very unique. Will definitely be back again. The only thing I would change is that I wish was that it was closer to my house!

This place is all right and I am being nice… But, if your underage go here they do a great job at serving every one.

Maybe my first visit was on an off night. It’s possible. I’ve been here twice in the past couple of weeks, and I’ve been much more impressed with the service. The bartender both times was polite and efficient. They came around with coals.
All things considered, this still isn’t my favorite place. But it is an acceptable location to end the night. I’ll be back when my friends are interested in coming.
