Just came here yesterday with a friend. We had a great time. We split a hookah and ordered some drinks, my pina colada smoothie was delicious. My friend enjoyed her cappuccino as well. Everything was reasonably priced and we had a great time. Michael was very kind and attentive, really appreciated all his help. I'm sure we'll be back soon. read more

Friendly service, good hookah, and the Tropical Thunder smoothie is amazing! Enjoyed it so much last night, that I'm writing this review sitting on their couch enjoying the same thing today lol - Ambiance is relaxed and comfortable. If you're in the area, I highly recommend. read more

I used to love this spot when I was in college but it's changed quite a bit since then. It doesn't have a cozy hookah bar vibe - it was oddly chilly when I walked in to the point we had to keep our jackets on the whole time, it was pretty dead although it was a random week night so maybe just an off time - but there were only a couple people there aside from two of my friends and I. There's ample seating which was nice and the sofas are pretty comfortable. We got a fruit bowl and it was pretty good - packed well and the person working was diligent about checking in to make everything was good + replacing coals as needed. They charge if you bring outside food which I guess is pretty common but would be nice if they had better items on their menu so you didn't have to bring anything from outside. When checking out he automatically added a 20% tip which I thought was rude (menu says 20% for groups of six or more, there were only 3 of us), and even with the added tip our total didn't make sense - we got charged 10 over what our bill should have been and didn't realize it till after. Would not recommend read more

Great service. The host Mike is awesome. I walked into a diverse space, that offers flavored hookah and soft beverages. Great opportunity to meet new people! :) read more

They have happy hour here for 10 dollar hookah and also free nicotine options. We however ordered a pineapple head hookah for 25 that wasn't included in happy hour, but was worth it. I also ordered a green tea . Nice place inside and usually not too packed . The servers very friendly too. read more

Place is trash. At first they tried offering us their VIP room, but honestly it was def the worst section of the place. Bad talent also Then we got seated and the waitress said she would clean around us. However, this never happened. We proceeded to wait around 20 mins to order our hookah, but no server ever came by or even walked in our proximity. So we just dipped read more

Very good Hookah place, nice employees. Perfect service . We went to this place with a group of friends and been very happy with them. read more

Truly an amazing hookah experience! Tej is such a nice guy - always super helpful, always willing to meet each and every one of our needs and is always going above and beyond to make it a special and great overall experience. YOU NEED TO CHECK THIS HOOKAH BAR OUT! Keep up the great work! Myself and my fiancé are usually here at least once per week. Great atmosphere, amazing flavors, new even heat distribution bowls - makes the hookah experience a LOT better! Outstanding experience! read more

I used to come here since 2011, I went twice recently and it was just not the same vibe. Something changed. I heard there is a new owner, never met the person, never introduced themselves either. I wouldn't even know if they were in the building. Maybe I just got used to the previous owner (Simon) being always friendly and he used to strike a convo with my friends and I. I dunno how I feel about this place now. I could be overacting, but I do take friendliness to the next level. You should always greet your customers, you want us to remember you and to pass a positive opinions on to our friends. Something to think about. read more

Great customer service, very friendly personal! Will come back here for sure!! awesome place for hookah !! Recommended !! read more

The hookah is pretty good. The flavors are really good too. Service isn't good at all, it takes forever to get your order! I'd definitely give 5 Star if the server Carl (I hope I wrote his name right) was the owner or at least manager in charge! The owner is weird btw. read more

Michael made sure my Hookah was smooth the whole time. The service was good. Would definitely recommend!

Highly recommend! The owner Michael was so nice and very welcoming. If you go any hookah lounge go with this one along with great prices.

Great place, clean and friendly. You can get some great coffee or tea and an awesome tasting hookah. it's a great place to hang out with friends and catch up. I drive a ways to come out here for hookah. read more

One of the best hookah spots in the Midwest! Exhale offers a posh atmosphere with multiple rooms and a yummy selection of flavors! The servers are lovely and so is the owner! A downside is that you cannot drink in the lounge, but there is a cozy bar next door that can fix that! And don't get me wrong, with or without alcohol, the party lives on at Exhale! Great DJs and dance opportunities for everyone! I frequent this place when visiting Naperville! The Watermelon-Mint in a Pineapple is a MUST on your next visit! read more

First there was Dhuwan, then Mr. Sheesha's and now there's Exhale. Exhale came in an changed the hookah game in my opinion. They are located on Ogden Avenue, right across the Wendy's. The inside of Exhale is very upbeat, almost club/bar looking with a bunch of couches and chair seating areas. Upon entering, you have a choice of either going left or right, the left side is made more for bigger groups of 5 or more and the left side also has a private booth. The right side takes you to the area for smaller groups like 1-4/5 people. The seating area on this side is much more clustered, but it still has a nice vibe. The waitresses are friendly but seem bitchy...but that's nothing a conversation wouldn't solve. Me and my friend were able to flirt with 2 of the waitresses and got them to chill with our group for awhile, they even gave us a free repack!! the waitresses are all female, so guys flirt-away! lol but anyways, I digress.... there are an overwhelming amount of options when it comes to choosing your hookah as well as 3 sizes (small, medium, large) hookahs. It took my group of 5 people about 10 mins to decide what we wanted, the waitresses tried to help, but it was obvious that they didn't have the adequate knowledge to help us decide what we wanted, and you could see that she seemed irritated. but all cons aside, the hookah once purchased smoked like a charge, but it did die out within 20-30 mins, which in my opinion is much lower than the average medium hookah... Pricing is a bit hefty if compared to other hookah lounges in the area. I walked out spending about $17 that night. But this review is only from a one-time experience, so I guess it may differ for others. In honesty, I would like to visit this lounge again, maybe my opinion can be changed by better service. read more

Dope place! Great hostess it's cool to have a lounge when you want space away from the nightclub scene. read more

I've been coming to this place for years. And I have to say it's the best hookah lounge I've ever been too. Everything here is Perfect, the hookah,costumer service,Managment & food. I smoke hookah everyday and this place was a dream when I found it. Most hookah bars have something wrong with it. But this place is at the top of my go to list. When it comes to the Costumer service all the Employees are very nice and don't hesitate to answer any questions & keep checking up on you. The owner simon is a real stand up guy he sits down and talks to us if we have a question and asks us how we're doing. Exhale is a gem in Naperville go check it out. read more

I have a very high bar for hookah bars considering my family owns one, it was my first visit and not my last. A friend brought me here and it was one of the nicest hookah bars around. Order the spiced chai with lemon mint , food I had mixed nuts which are my favorite and pizza at first I didn't think it would be up to my standards but I was wrong it was amazing! Thank you exhale and employees for a great experience. Will be back soon. Btw they brought us a complimentary cake for no reason, which I thought put the cherry on top of my experience here read more

Clouds by Exhale Hookah Lounge - The cake which didn't last very long - Lounges Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

I used to like this place but $5.00 for outside food? You have got to be kidding me. The menu doesn't have many choices, just light snacks. We really had no way of knowing that before hand, only in the menu. Also, two people per hookah? That's ridiculous. Not to mention the ONE cheap lighter coal they give you, and they don't even start the hookah. What a joke. At least the hookah itself was okay. The policies are just silly. Not worth the price we paid, IMO. Sorry man, but if you want to nickle and dime me, I'll just go elsewhere. No thanks. read more

Exhale is by far the best Hookah Lounge in the burbs, it cant get any better than this. From the lounge opening early than other lounges in the area (at 5pm) and closing later than other lounges. Personally i have been to alot of other cafes/lounges and couldnt find any better than exhale. When you goto have hookah, you want some place nice and cosy, some place that will give you a home like feeling. I found that at exhale, you come here once, and youll want to keep visiting. They have a wide array of flavors to select from, 10$ weekday (mon - thurs) deals and then reasonably priced hookahs on the weekends. The Hookahs are perfect everytime! The servers are respectable and knowledgeable, they help you alot with whatever kind of flavor you wanna smoke. service is excellent and the place is clean and ambient. In short, if you havent been to exhale you are missing out. And no this is not a paid review or anything, ive been coming here for around 2 years straight almost everyday or alternate day, and i feel the need that this place deserves this review. Keep doing what you do guys, youre the best! read more

Fantastic service, wonderful flavors and a chill atmosphere! Justina was wonderful and very nice!

This is an okay hookah spot. Service: there is a young dark haired girl. i think her brother owns the spot. she is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. very sweet, very helpful and all about giving the customers a great experience. outside of her the service from the other people is mediocre. Decor: love! so pretty inside with very middle eastern feel. Hookah: There is minimal consistency in if the premium hookah will have a taste or no taste. Last time I went, I just gave up, paid and left after 30 minutes because I had the hookah changed twice and it still tasted like nothing and was barely hitting. depending on who packs it, it can be a waste. Food: The chicken sambosa thing is AMAZING. otherwise dont order anything off the menu. They charge quite a bit for gas station food... eat before or after. read more

Granted this place may just be getting started, I must say it's pretty desolate. I went a couple Saturday's ago around 9:00 and stayed until about 11:00. Throughout, maybe 2 couples at most walked in. I really think they need to step their game up on advertising. Product: The hookah itself was good, but not great. They had a lot of options, but I've seen more at other lounges. Their food menu was small, so definitely don't come on an empty stomach. Another downside is that they don't serve alcohol. I feel that if they did, their business would increase tremendously. Price: This place is overpriced. They charged for water, which is ridiculous. Overall: Compared to other hookah bars in Naperville, it will suffice, but that really doesn't say much. This place has so much potential, the music, decor, ambiance and service is great, but there are still some kinks that should be worked out. read more

Exhale is the best hookah lounge I've been to in Chicago and Chicagoland. The service is great, the hookahs are always on point, and the ambience is amazing. The lounge itself is very clean and you can tell they properly clean the hookahs in between each use. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Beatiful atmosphere! This place is a wonderful hookah lounge. Comfortable seating, extremely friendly staff, and an overall great experience. I've been here twice and plan on making this a weekly stop! read more

Probably one of the worst hookah bars I have ever been too. Here is a list of the pros and cons. Pros: 1) Friendly staff 2) Nice decor Cons: 1) Cheap, instant light coals 2) $10 minimum per person 3) Ordered a pot of tea, the pot did not have a lid, instead a napkin was used. Our tea went cold in a few minutes 4) Never order the ice hose. We paid an additional $2 for what we thought was an ice-chambered hose, but instead we got a regular hose that had been placed in the freezer or fridge. What a rip off!!! read more

I have been coming here for quite awhile! I used to have to drive down to the city for decent hookah if not make it at home but who wants to deal with the mess!!! The atmosphere of this place is homey has a great cozy vibe, but the place definitely throws GREAT private parties djs and belly dancer and hookah included! They have the best flavors n best part they sell hookah products( hookahs, n flavored tobacco)! The staff is beyond welcoming they definitely put the icing on everything! Love this place! read more

What the !#*%^ ... where do i start. Instant light coals, $10 minimum. also asked for ice chamber they gave me a hose that was prob in the fridge for a minute.. Have not found a good hookah place in CHI. I miss Texas Hookah joints! The reason I give it 2 stars was only because of our kind friendly waiter. Don't know what her name was but if she ever left this place it would be a 1 or 0 star joint. read more
