The Power Lounge HTX | Sip + Social Bar & Patio — Restaurant in Stafford

I’ve been to this place a few times and enjoyed the vibe so I decided to invite some friends and family over to celebrate my dad’s birthday.

I typically only get a hookah so last night was my first full service experience with this place and to say the least, it was horrible.

They nickel and dime you for everything. My dad spent $22 on ICE.

The hookah price doubles after happy hour.

They don’t advertise that the lounge is 25 and up, which is crazy because they don’t sell alcohol and you only have to be 18 to smoke hookah.

We brought about 30-40 people to their spot last night and we were the ONLY people there on a Saturday evening. My brother, who’s 24, came to the lounge to celebrate our father but was turned away at the door because of his age.

These people need to understand BUSINESS and not just make up their own rules. If one person brought in the majority of your guests for the night, why are you holding strong to a 25 and up rule when nothing you provide is reserved for 25 and up?

My recommendation to these people is to charge a $10 overhead if you don’t get hookah or their $10 BYOB bottle fee.

I’ll never go back...

My first time here was for the Charlo vs Canelo fight. I gave it a 4 star for the overall experience. Now, the things that they should work on getting better are for starters, their website should be more informative. I get the idea of being cashless, but you should also be able to have the option of paying cash, especially for the spirits that you all sell. The table top chairs are uncomfortable, and have no back support. They are also very small if there are more than 2 people at a table. I think that having an additional support for hookah smokers would be good, the wait can get a little long, for ordering and coal changes. I feel that if you are charging an entry fee and per bottle fee, it should come with a set up of ice and cups and that shouldn't be an extra charge. A DJ would be nice in the near future. I know this place is just opening up and will get better, but just a few suggestions I thought I would speak upon. But overall I...

This place is awesome. Very laid back vibe and they know their hookah. Very smooth mixes. We ordered a house special mix, the fruit punch with mint. I probably wouldn't order the mint with it again but the fruit punch part was really good. The playlist was also great, they played rap and R&B from the 90's which just fit the mood. We sat on the couches but the people at the bar seemed to be regulars and were having a great time. We were lucky enough to meet the owner and it's always cool to meet someone who takes so much pride and care in their work. He was so warm and welcoming. He told us about all the events they have and actually talked to us quite a bit over several occasions during our visit. He checked on us and kept our hookah burning smoothly....
