Cafe Europe San Diego Reviews
I love this place! The owners are awesome! The hookahs last forever and taste great! Perfect place to study, hang out with friends/on your own; or grab a bite to eat! Plus they’re dog friendly. 🙂
It’s nice having somewhere to hangout that’s so relaxed! Everyone here is ridiculous chill. I worked on my computer for a few hours - there are outlets and the staff is great. Would return!
Good, friendly service, good food, hookah, and places to sit and study. Good WiFi signal . I got the chicken Mediterranean salad.

Recently (as of Feb. 2019) under new management, but this is the same lounge as before. The drinks are great, the food is great (love the gyro salad), and the hookah is great (love those CocoNaras). Unlike other club like hookah lounges, Euro is quiet and conducive to studying; perfect for being near SDSU.
Such a great cafe and lounge to chill no dark very bright and nice lighting. I honestly enjoy this place its very calm and chill area definitely great area for studying! I highly recommend everyone to try it once✨
This place has wonderful service, tasty hookah, and delicious food and drinks. A great place to hang out for a while, or just grab a drink.
Went here 3 months ago, great atmosphere and service is excellent. You want some alone time? Come here.
In this cafe you feel you are home Staff very helpful And music not load many chairs Its good place if you want read and have a good time Pizza place close to this cafe You order and the pizza place bring you your pizza if you want for cafe for free so its really in good location
I came expecting a small coffee cafe. Instead it seemed like a combination of a cafe and hookah lounge. Asked the guy and he said yes. Definitely a cool spot.
Great place! Great service, friendly, polite and helpful. Nice size, clean bathroom and lots of parking!
A comfortable place to come and chill. Study, Smoke💨. Best hooka flavor
I appreciate the superb service I received today. The atmosphere was welcoming, the staff were courteous and professional, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I fully endorse this establishment and look forward to returning!
I had a great time over there. Awesome customer service. And amazing hookha
Cashier guy was super cool and the ambience is perfect for studying. Not loud and they sell snacks. If you're hungry, you can also get food a couple stores down. The whole parking lot smelled really good.
LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Service Is wonderful and hookah is perfectly made. Nice selection of food and drinks but if you're wanting alcohol with your hookah you won't get it here. For this reason alone we love it!
Awesome European style, social gathering hookah lounge located in the heart of SDSU area offering amazing double Apple hookah many other flavors of hookah made with a fine twist where flavors keep sinking into your mouth like no other lol. No joke the hookahs are amazing at this hookah lounge. Come see it for yourself even in the times of what have you.
I've been coming here several time now and it is always a very good time. The owners are super friendly and are good people. It is big, clean, and a perfect place to do some studying while having some coffee, tea, hookah, or food.
Very enjoyable experience and the vibes are nice. The tea is really good too! Definitely going to come back!

Great place to study chill atmosphere but no food just snacks there’s food in the plaza
This place not good safety because the people working has COVID 19 never see still they working then the make hookah the working people drink beer inside not has respect they charge a lot money the customer never see like this hookah inside trash I see a lot mouse and has bedbugs the chair is not cleaning please don’t go this hookah they took my card over money they don’t know how to make hookah never change the water cleaning same kitchen and bathroom cleaning don’t waste your beautiful time and your money they don’t cleaning hand or wash soap One guy working ask the customer number never come back that place smells bad no smells good
As a hookah smoker, I'd give this place 2 out of 5, the hookah flavor is mediocre. but the atmosphere is not as good as advertised. The music is too low to be heard and you're lucky if your hot drink taste good.
