Blu Wave Cafe: Reviews & Ratings

The location and cafe has been around for a long time but a short while back when the new ownership took over the place started to shape up for the better. It space keeps improving with renos and furniture but what changed immediately was the quality of their hookah. Better molasses, heads and coals. Better varieties of cafe drinks. And if you work remotely like me, blazing fast internet! While they are the only game in town, I still look forward to my visits to PS so I can enjoy the evenings in their patio with great hookahs.

Blue Wave is a great hookah spot in the heart of Downtown Palm Springs. They have an outdoor rooftop plus optional indoor seating with a DJ setting the vibe. No alcohol served — just good energy and great hookah. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

This Hookah lounge made my visit from Oregon the most relaxing and welcoming, the guys there made sure I was always good with the coals and my hot tea was on point, went there every night while I was in town. The music was perfect! Will definitely be coming back when I can

This hookah lounge is my favorite place to go ( really the only hookah lounge out here). During the day, and especially at night ( very lively. lots of people). It’s amazing to stop by during the palm springs Thursday night market! They allow you to bring food up, so stopping at supporting a local food business, then getting to go relax, eat, and smoke hookah. AMAZING. Love that they are also open until 4am on Friday nights and Saturday nights. The curly head girl, Memphis, has literally THE best service. She is funny, has a great personality, and is an absolute vibe! LOVEEE her hair.

I’ve been to a good number of hookah bars, this one takes the cake. Beautiful, calming environment with chill music and very friendly staff. Spacious covered upper level patio with lots of fire heaters during colder months. Great hookah selection, and coals changed attentively! Delicious tea. I’ll be telling all of my friends this is a must stop when in Palm Springs! I can’t wait to come back
