Arabian Knight Hookah & Coffee Lounge

Ihsa has a great welcoming smile and always remembers me coming in for tea, food, or treats. It truly feels like a little cafe in the Middle East- the atmosphere is truly unique. If you enjoy a calm place to sit down and relax, smoke hookah, or eat/drink, you’ve got to come here. I also had a great experience with catering from here, food was delicious and the communication worked out well. Thank you!

Arabian Knights Hookah and Coffee Lounge 52 North Queen St. No. 5a Lancaster, Pa. 17603 Who knew!? Situated in a multilevel open air plaza, which also houses shops of object d’art, ethnic apparel and jewelry, and a tattoo parlour, among others, this restaurant/lounge/hookah hang will remind you of the inside of a large tent, with fabric-draped ceilings, seat cushioned banquettes, and single chair seating to comfortably accommodate single patrons, couples, and larger parties. The ambient vibe of the room is provided by quiet Middle Eastern style music, while your host attends to taking and serving orders, and invites guests to view a unique collection of crafted bridge jewelry from around the globe, along with other inspired accessories. Pedestrian guests also make quick stops for ethnic gourmet items, desserts, and other sweet and savory snacks to take home or back to work, on impulse from point of sale. Speaking of food, I couldn’t resist trying one of the tastiest hummus' , served with really fresh pita, some house-made red lentil soup, and an absolutely not to be missed Turkish coffee with a gentle aroma of cardamom and all of the heart and soul I experienced from over twenty years ago at a small tucked away Middle East/ Mediterranean spot back home in Philly (Anyone remember Dardinels, corner of Bank and Chestnut Streets, Olde City?). An authentic execution worth the road trip for any aficionado of premium roasted caffeinated beverages. Seriously, who knew? Get there if you can.

The hookah you get is a pretty cheap one, the tobacco they have is Al Fahker which you can get any cigarette shop for cheap. Burns quick and doesn’t taste all that great. Ordered tea which never came so I just left. If you’re an avid hookah smoker this is not the place to go. Just smoke at home.

Love this hookah spot. Best in Lancaster. Service is impeccable. Always attentive. Been to other local spots, but this one is by far the best.

The food is amazing, the hookah is very natural, and the family is so great. It's a wonderful place to hang out in Lancaster downtown. They are open late
