Firefly

Firefly is a nice hookah bar with a decent selection of flavors. The price is fairly standard for a Hookah bar (roughly $12 per hookah). Very kind and courteous staff, and the environment is very chill. I wish they had a bigger venue as it's sometimes hard to get a seat for a group over five on the weekends, but that's my only real complaint.

I wish they could get a liquor license so you could have a drink while you smoke.

This is the place where I "popped my hookah cherry".  I came here with some friends a month or so ago, and I came into a place with torn-up booths, a floor that is in ruins, and a bathroom that would be better off in jail than in a hookah bar.

They require that you buy drinks while you hookah - that's a biggie.  The drinks are horribly priced, but who cares?  It's hookah.

The quality and variety of "flavors" are above-average.  There's not a really good way of describing it.  The smoking experience was worthwhile, but there are better hookah lounges out there.  However, for NE Ohio, this will sadly have to do.

First of all, they get one thumbs up for being the only hookah bar in Kent! Second, for being awesome.

The atmosphere is very relaxed and people sprawl out on those couches for hours while the smoke. Firefly has a ton of great flavors and house mixes, and of course, you can always mix and match to your hearts desire. They also have a few desserts you can choose from.

When you walk in, be sure you have your I.D. with you because, unlike others, they always check to make sure you aren't a teeny bopper.

The wait can be lengthy (there are, afterall, only so many couches), so call ahead to see how long the wait is and put your name on the list. Always do this on weekends.

There is a 1-drink minimum Friday-Saturday. So don't be surprised.

They can accomodate groups small and large. They have loveseats for two and couches arranged to fit ten times that.

Kick back, relax and be prepared: you will fall for Firefly.
