Best hookah spot in the bay hands down, ambience is unbeatable in aesthetics, hookah is always packed attentively (owner/staff is very attentive and always makes custom bowls to our exact liking), I’ve tried probably 15+ different flavor combinations here and they’re always amazing. Have a nice variety music selection but the music volume is perfect where you can still have a conversation with your friends without having to talk too loud. Attracts a nice, young crowd which is refreshing since most spots in the bay are unc hangout spots. Price is unbeatable too, you can always expect a nice relaxing ambience and great bowl of shisha here.

I rarely take time to actually write reviews... honestly, I prefer keeping my favorite spots low-key. But I'd feel guilty not giving credit where it's due, so here we are. Hayati is one of those places that just gets it right. Perfect vibe for night owls who want somewhere cozy to unwind, get some work done, or just exist without the chaos. The atmosphere is warm, the energy is chill, and it somehow manages to feel both social and intimate at the same time. Also a great spot if you want to catch a game + good energy without being one of those loud, overwhelming sports bars. These guys deserve the recognition. Just... maybe don't tell too many people. 🤫

This place is by far the best hookah lounge in the bay area. The vibes are mellow similar to a cafe yet can still become upbeat when they get packed. Came on a Thursday night but they didn’t have space so the worker was nice enough to take my number down and called me where there was space. Definitely will be my new spot

The vibes here are amazing and the service is unbeatable. Hands down my favorite hookah spot in the Bay Area. The owner, O, is always here making sure everyone is taken care of, and Yusuf (sorry if I misspelled your name!) is constantly checking in, making sure the coals are right and everyone’s good. Top-tier hospitality all around. Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!
