Blue Lizard Hookah Lounge

Comfortable couches, relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff. The hookah flavors are great. If you’ve never been before the hookistadora will help you out with suggestions. Kelsey, Caleb and Eric are all awesome. The fancy ass cocoa is delicious! Go there!

Nice spot to chill and wind down. Inexpensive. Every time I’ve gone so far it hasn’t been packed. Only hookah place I’ve been to so far since I’ve moved here from Nj … Haven’t been disappointed yet

Pleasant and helpful staff. Good music, relaxing atmosphere and great place to hang with a group of friends. No food, limited selection of beer and wine and average number if hookah flavors. My first time here, but definitely will be a returning customer!

Brandon (branden?) was really sweet and a huge help! The venue itself is small but cozy, great selection of flavors and decent selection of beer! All in all a fantastic little hookah lounge, perfect for small get togethers and attracts a great crowd. Definitely would recommend.

A very chill spot!

My favorite hookah lounge in the area. Great ventilation and they clear the coals in the dish so there isn’t smoke and ash everywhere. Very comfy couches and large tables so you can play games or study or whatever :) Everyone gets their own hookah. I disagree with the previous reviewer who said it was too bright and the music wasn’t loud enough. I think it’s just perfect — very relaxing.
The staff is very friendly and knowledgable. Jennifer is amazing and won’t let you order something that won’t taste good. She’s great with service and a nice recommendation for flavor combinations.

Very chill spot to smoke hookah. Comfy couches and friendly staff. They play good music and the hookahs hit good. Yummy flavors too (:

I would like to start this review out with saying that I really know hookah. I’ve smoked hookah every single night for the past year, I own my own, I know the flavors, I know how it should taste/​smoke, how it should be packed… I won’t say I know everything but I sure know a lot.
Now, tonight is my first time here. I was partial to Meridian where they really diss this place, so I never thought to try it. Meridian has progressively let me down the past couple times I’ve been there, the staff and atmosphere have just completely gone off the deep end and management pretty much stinks these days.
So with all that in mind, I wound up here. It’s midnight on a Saturday night and they actually had a table open — no wait list. Perfect! I came here with my girlfriend and to my surprise they offered us two hookahs (at Meridian you would only get one). We put in our orders — a High Voltage (pink lemonade, absolute zero, and raspberry), a Lizard Love (grape, pomegranate, and absolute zero), and 2 Bud Lights (might I add, drinking alcohol while smoking hookah is the
). We weren’t waiting too long before they arrived.
Our server, Wes, was friendly and attentive. He chatted with us a bit while we were here. The dim lighting is nice, and they played upbeat music. The couches are so comfy, and this place actually doesn’t look like it’s hanging by its last thread (no holes in the couches/​ceilings, bathrooms were clean, floor was in tact… Etc). They also have a TV which is always a plus.
They only charge a $ 10 cover, $ 1 per repack, and they have a variety of beer and wine (PBR for you hipsters out there reading this!). Our hookahs both lasted 2 hours and I smoke like a chimney so I was rather impressed with that. At the end of our night when he brought our bill, he brought two lollipops too, which was sweet (I’m punny).
All in all, I think this is my new place to go for my hookah fix. If you’re biased like I was to the competition, I think you should broaden your horizons and try this place out. You won’t be disappointed!

Blue Lizard Lounge is definitely comforting and welcoming. The staff there is very friendly and I forgot to get her name, but one of the young ladies made me a kick-​ass coffee that hit the spot! I went with a couple friends and it is perfect to do just that. Big comfy chairs allow you to sit back and relax with your table.
I would recommend dimming the lights a little bit lower, though. It is calming in there, but, I felt a tad bit «too» bright. Turning up the music a little bit would help because you could faintly hear it in the surround sound.
Overall, my first experience here was awesome. They have something very nice going on and I would love to return. I still feel as though Zoya is my go to destination, but Blue Lizard does the job.

It is always a great experience here! A very comfortable place with many favors and a great environment. Always recommend this place to anyone I know!

After a wonderful night of Howl-​O-​Scream with the boyfriend, we stopped by Blue Lizard! I try to stop by every time I am in the area! It is one of my favorite Hookah Places to visit!
They have great live music, comfortable couches, fun board games, and has a real chill atmosphere!
During this visit, we tried one of their «Blue Lizard Bowls» it was Blueberry Mint (I think?) It was very YUMMY! :-)
Can’t wait to come back!

I have to say Blue Lizard is my new Tampa favorite.
My heart still yearns for Meridian from time to time. Meridian has better music and it’s a darker and sexier setting for a date on a random night. BUT Meridian has been overwhlemed with college freshmen that don’t understand hookah lounge etiquette. They are loud and flash their cameras constantly.
Blue Lizard is fabulous. They have a great selection of shisha, tea and tabacco. They do sell beer, which is rare amongst hookah lounges. AND they have my favorite beer, Wild Blue.
There is a cover of $ 10 when you get into the door which includes one hookah. One hookah per person! And it’s $ 1 per hookah after that. The beer prices are decent. The staff is friendly and knowledgable. Local art is all over the walls. My kind of place.

Blue Lizard is a hookah spot that many of my friends frequent. I’m not a smoker and this one of the few hookah spots that I can actually come to comfortably and not have to smell tons of smoke because the place is ventilated really great! The main workers are really friendly and you can request songs that you want to listen to while you’re there if they can find them on their list. The couches are super comfortably and it’s a really great place to chill late at night. They have cards and other things to keep you entertained, a television as well. Refreshments are also available and they have a variety of choices. For those that do smoke they have a huge list of hookah flavors and you can keep changing flavors for only a one time fee of $ 10. Non-​smokers have to pay $ 5 to get in but it’s not that bad to pay. The place is open late and closes at 3am usually and is located right by USF as well.
