I have been to Aladdin café many times and this place fails to compare in every way shape and form.

The building owner should level the place and start over, it’s disgusting. Update: The place is history. Gone, poof! Miracles do happen.

It’s an okay place to be. Rather be at home with my hookah but whatever! Least theirs free water and lot of flavor selections!

This place used to be really fun back in the days. Now when you walk in you see little kids doing their homework and old men falling asleep on the computer. The hookah is ok but not like it used to be.

We live in the bay area so didn’t go to this place for couple years and mann did it take a dive for the worse. Initially the service is exceptionally bad. They bring the sheesha to your take pretty fast. Charcoal? That’s where you weight. we were completely ignored and liyrally had to get up and ask for 1st set of coals 3 times before the Guy came. The hookah is decent but half the seating has no tables. so your sitting on old plastic chairs just looking at each other with the tea at your feet. The service is Just simply bad and you get the feeling they don’t care if people think its bad. Finally, they have kids literally 10 — 11 year holds there… serving charcoal… forget about child labor, isn’t there a smoking violation right there? This place used to be great, but i wouldn’t ever go back.

HORRIBLEHORRIBLEHORRIBLESERVICE. Owner is extremely rude and doesn’t know how to treat customers. Price is never the same and always changes depending on their mood. Not a very clean area either and wouldn’t really recommend. Prepare to see tons of old men everywhere. btw there’s this kid that looks like he’s 5 that works there.

When I was a newbie to hookah, this place was actually alright. But now that I’ve been to other numerous hookah lounges/bars, Cobblestone just slacks behind all of them. Gaudy art on the walls, middle school aged pre-teens giving you your coals, and I’ve heard the bathrooms are pretty jacked up(I’ve only heard from a friend, so I can’t personally attest to it). The very first time I came here 2 years ago, the nephew of the owner tended to my group’s hookah and changed coals at the right time. He even showed us a few tricks that he knew. I swear it stayed smooth the whole hour I was there and it was a pleasurable experience. But ever since that day, I haven’t been able to get that same level of service from the rest of the staff. On occasion I come back to see if things change, but it never does. Cobblestone has a really laid back atmosphere that isn’t typical of other hookah places that lean towards a more dim lit, «clubby» ambiance. The hookah here gets harsh really quick and I found the place to be way too casual for my liking. Last I remember, they only check the ID of the person actually paying for the hookah, so a lot of underaged teens like to come here because of that. Other(and better) places will check the ID of the entire party.

Came here a couple weeks ago to hookah with the buddies. It was my first time. My first impression, daaaamn wth, where am i at? All these people look like them scary bar people in the movies! Soooo, i was kinda intimidated. Not to mention, the parking lot was dark as hell. Buncha old dudes sittin outside tooo. But after that, it wasn’t so bad. We got a table, and paid for the hookah. I don’t know the price, cause a friend paid. Hookah was good, iuno, was it? iuno first time, so iuno haha. There was a bathroom with a buncha mirror. Hmm, outside patio to sit and chill. Um, customer service was cool. Yep, i would come again with friends to chill and hookah. Fun place to relaxxxx. Just don’t come alone haha.

Okay, so having acquainted myself with a few other hookah bars in the area, my friends invited me to come to Cobblestone(only because they were broke at the time). I was hesitant, but I heard it was cheap so I figured we couldn’t go wrong. Well, we did. Apparently we happened upon the worst hookah bar in existence… well, in Sacramento at least. This place is terrible. The atmosphere is hardly cultural(they serve burgers and have their televisions on MTV2 nonstop), they have underage kids(must have been at most, 10?) working the coals, and our hookah was leaking less than halfway through. We got Strawberry-Kiwi, which cost us $ 10 I think; too bad It tasted of burnt rubber and dirt, but you get what you pay for I guess. The kids working there have no idea what they were doing. They even misplaced the coals both times they came around. We got new coals about 5 minutes within each other, which was nice, but that was no indication of service. We waited for 15 – 20 minutes for new coals and to find out why our hookah was leaking; we left before anyone attempted to service us. It’s like they were trying to get you out of there as soon as possible. They were way understaffed and even more so because of the child labor they were resorting to(is that even legal?). Even the adults there were unwelcoming and will only talk to you if you are a female; nothing like being a 40 year old creeper/sexist to make your paying customers feel welcome! Throw on top the fact it’s location is secluded and easy to miss, and you have yourself a terrible hookah bar. Needless to say, I will never step foot in this Hookah bar again. No wonder it is on a side street and not a main thoroughfare. If you want real hookah, try any other hookah bar in the greater Sacramento area. As long as the word ‘Cobblestone’ isn’t in the name, you’re guaranteed a better experience.

Walking through the poorly lit parking lot u see a lot of young kids that probably can’t purchase tobacco n shouldn’t be in a place like this. Been here a few times, not by choice but friends took me out so at least I didn’t pay. I did however notice that their prices have gone up a few times, though the atmosphere and service have stayed the same. Not much in the way of a menu all I see is people eating frozen fried chicken strips, but hey I had them before and they weren’t bad. Good selection of flavors and outdoor patio were the only plus points on this place. I’ve been to other hookah lounges around town, won’t say where but they are worth checking out.

Few years ago, my cousin took me here with some friends. It’s my first hookah session. The place was very hidden, and a scary parking lot. When we entered, I began to slowly figure this hookah thing. Grab a table, order flavors, pay, sit, wait for them to bring ur bong & hot coals, then put on the tiny condoms on the nozzles, and inhale… I had a wonderful time, we ordered snacks and drinks. The hookah burned my throat. I realized we were smoking the coal mostly! I did some experimenting, and got it right. I would go back if it was more roomy, and well maintained. To me, its like kickin it at someones garage and yard.

So, my best fag hag had just turned 18 and wanted to celebrate her newfound adulthood by going to a hookah bar… This place is literally around the corner from where I live(I live on the other side of that huge University block), and I was rather surprised that I never noticed it before, as I would walk over the Guy West bridge to class at Sac State literally almost every day. Anywhose, we got there early, so it was kinda dead, and I suspect they save the good shit for when it’s poppin’, because ours went ashy and weak pretty quick; but when some other friends showed up later and ordered theirs, it lasted between the six of us most of the rest of the night… and the coal-turning guys were much more attentive when there was more people(this was a saturday night, too). The do seem to have a nice range of flavors, though, and the set-up of space seems to work for the most part: there’s a patio for those more sensitive to smoke, and the inside is open enough to encourage sociability, so there was some inter-table conversing going around… We had some fries earlier in the evening, and those were pretty good, though they didn’t have the condiment my friend wanted… I forget what it was, but something pretty common. Anyways, it seems to be mostly college guys and little pre-pubescent Arab boys working there, but at least they made the fries fresh, which was pretty cool. So, great place to hang out if you’re a Sac State student, I’m planning on going back again when I have money, and going a bit later this time, to get in on some better hookah action.

Do Not Go here!!! It’s horrible. Used to go when if first opened over 7 years ago. It’s changed hands probably twice that number. It’s only gotten worse. Rude service, the food has gone down hill. Way to build a patio without the prober building codes and then have to take it down. Come here only if you want over priced hookah, which is burnt and cheap as hell. If you are under age it’s great to go get some tobacco, just be careful, you are going to meet someone who will try to marry you for a green card. Shady all around…

Keeping in mind my limited hookah exposure, I thought this place was just fine. A fun place to stroll into at 11pm on a Monday night. Everyone seemed nice enough to me, and it was VERY laid back and casual. I didn’t pay, so I cannot speak for the price. Even if I did pay, I don’t what is reasonable or not! I did love the cashier guy’s jerry curl-esque hair and MJ jacket.

The hookah was burnt and expensive. I don’t think the staff had a clue what was going on. In my opinion, it’s way better to just buy a hookah and use it at home. The only good thing about this place was that the food was good. All in all, I left in a bad mood, and with empty pockets.

For all the negative reviews, I still really like this place. It’s one of the few places in Sacramento you can go that’s mellow — I just want to smoke, drink some mint tea, and play some cards. I will take this place over any bar in Sacramento, any time. The workers here are fantastically nice to me, but the rumors are true — it’s because I am woman. If they treated everyone well, this would be a much nicer place to come. With the prices jumping to $ 20, I’m not sure if I’d hang out here that much. This place was great at $ 10 a hookah, and could sustain a price increase up to $ 15, but at $ 20, I have a hookah at home.

Welp how low can customer service get? effing low that is. The hooka wasn’t even good sex on the beach tasted like crap barely tasted anything. The strawberry was«alright» tho. My friends order fries and she wanted more salt on it and the cashier or w. e ask them to open their mouths to pour salt in it. Funny but rude. I was forced to go get more ranch and the same guy denied me pointed to the other cashier and told me to purchase it. But it’s all different when you have a girl go do it for you because she brought 2 of them back. NO refills? and the cups of soda was hella small. What a gip. I swear the guy changing the coals was on crack or pcp or something he was talking like he was on drugs with a blunt in his ear. We asked for more coal and he asked us if we wanted a taxi. Didn’t even take it as an insult, I wouldn’t expect more from a uneducated wanna be thug.

2 stars because of price and hours., no more no less. Loves this place for a long time, and it hasn’t really changed. Location across from the CSUS campus is just an ultimate plus in my mind as well. HOWEVER, some years back they stopped being open during the day. I’m back on the campus and decide I’d like to get some food and a bowl… but to no avail. Other issue… price. When I started at this place 6 years ago, it had just jumped to $ 10 a bowl. Ok, that’s fine. Recently jumped the price up to $ 20 a bowl. and we got hassled for sharing a bowl between 3 of us. Screw that. Bowl of shisha costs them less than a buck in materials. I know they gotta make cash on it, but doubling the price just sends my friends and me home to use our own gear. Service is a craps shoot, and the food/drinks has never been noteworthy. The real draw is the location, their evening hours, and the atmosphere. Really, still like the place, just not willing to drop $ 60 for me a few other people to have a bowl of hookah apiece. Take from that what you will.

What?! I can’t believe no one has reviewed this place yet! This was a serious hangout spot when I was 17 – 20. Its about as cool as you can get if you’re under 21 and living in Sacramento. Now I would never go, however, because I do not keep company with high school kids. This is an outdoor seating Mediterranean food joint that also sets you up with a hookah if you want. The first few times I went there, the only people were old Turkish men smoking their hookahs and playing cards. Eventually, however, it became quite popular. I don’t know if I had just gone on off nights or if spreading the word really brought in kids. It was common to run into people you knew or meet new ones. Definitely was a default hangout spot for my friends and I should we have no where else to loiter that night. Hookahs were going for about $ 4 – 5, but I believe they’ve increased to about $ 10, though they don’t limit how many people can use one pipe. The best part about this place was: they didn’t check my ID. This was extremely exciting at age 17 or so. But later on, when they became more popular, I was carded. But they only ask for ID from the person who pays for the hookah, so there are ways around it. Nowadays it is a cesspool for private high school kids. Jesuit, Christian Brothers, Lorretto, St. Francis, and a sprinkling of Rio Americano… you know who you are. Everyone there is about 16, loud, out to flirt and look cool. I’m over it. But if you happen to fit that description, you should check this place out. Keeps you out of my new hangouts, at least.
