I've been here three times, once under old owner, twice under new. The hookah under the new owner is very good. I've smoked in Israel on the Red Sea, Saudi Arabia in Jeddah, and many local places, but, in my opinion, this place has really good hookah. Yes, it does cater to the community college crowd and it is not very comfortable and the bathrooms are horrible. But, the hookah is good and you can always get fresh coals.
And your car won't get towed like at Arab freaking Cowboy.
If it were possible to rate this place lower than a single star, i would.
We stepped out of our car, and walked up the stairs with hesitation due to all the negative reviews on Yelp. But seeing as how we lived close by, we decided to try it out for ourselves. The moment we walked through the door, we were confronted by what can only be described as a man still hoping to hang on to some sort of former high school glory. Hat on backwards, he approached us (After finishing his hand in whatever card game he was playing). We asked for the list of flavors, and he rudely glared at us and pointed to the wall. The room was so dimly lit, and the windows blacked out that it made it nearly impossible to see the gallery of flavors at first. After choosing our flavor, we were told to pick a place to sit. After looking at several tables, we finally stumbled across one that wasn't covered in all kinds of grotesque sticky garbage. After sitting patiently for what seemed like 15-20 minutes, he (the owner) finally finished his card game and got up to bring us our hookah. The hookah he brought us, was leaking pretty severely; to the point where the homework that i brought was completely soaked by the time i got out of the restroom. I will not even describe the nature of these horrid latrines seeing as how i wish to not have nightmares tonight. The pricing is all wrong. If i hadn't said before, the prices are listed as- 10$ for hookah 5$ for reloads- But the owner goes ahead and charges you 15$ regardless of your choices. Anyway, If we weren't disgusted by everything else, the moment that we were finally able to forgive all of Jungle juices shortcomings, a "herd" of raging testosterone filled boys walked in with a bottle of whiskey. Seconds later i found myself clutching for my books and papers, as the dog they brought in started causing all kind of chaos. Needless to say, everything was downhill the moment we walked through the door. Waste of money. Waste of life. Waste of space. Id rather see that place turn into a euthanizing clinic then continue as a hookah "lounge".
So I met up with a friend here - his lady piced it. Â The pizza was from CostCo despite the signs saying "hand-stretched" - how you hand stretch a frozen pizza, I don't know, but whatever - and vastly overpriced at $7.95. Â I will say the music was decent (some XM station) and the hookah wasn't bad. Â They have a reasonable amount of outlets within reach for laptops and decent wifi.
I agree with Daniel J - this place felt like a high school hangout. Â I'm pretty sure that the three of us were the only ones over the age of 19 in the whole place. Â For that matter, we were the only three customers. Â The staff seemed to number about ten (only three of whom were working, but why do you need three people for that place?), and they spent most of their time playing Tetris on the N64 plugged into a wall-mounted TV.
I'm not a hookah guy (I prefer the cancer that comes in packs, thank you), and this place wasn't bad, I think I'm just not the target market. Â If I lived in Cedar Park and wasn't old enough to get in a bar, I would probably be at this place all the time. Â But since I am old enough to get in a bar and have my own place, I've got getter things to do. Â Like stab myself in the face with a dull wooden spoon.
Yuuuuuuuuuuuck. Husband went there yesterday.
Inattentive customer service. Too expensive. Lots of kids hanging out playing video games. They don't even give you your own freaking coal to keep relighting the bowl. It's a drag- and not a delicious one from the hookah.
Skip it and make the drive to Yalhala.
If you're looking for some hookah
and you live near Cedar Park
then you have to look no further
than your neighborhood juice bar.
This may sound pretty crazy:
what's by day Jungle Juice Bar
makes a transformation nightly
to a rockin' hookah bar.
I'm no hookah-ficionado
so I can't vouch for the smoke
but I tell you it gets crowded
with young people taking tokes.
They all pass the mic around
karaoke all night long
and don't need to go downtown
to party til the early morn.
Arthur, whom I call El Mago,
(he's the man who runs the place)
has as goal numero uno
to get you to enjoy yourself.
