MoMo (Shisha Bar & Restaurant)

I love Shisha Bars. There are so few in London or in the UK for that matter and this place really outlines what smoking a middle-eastern giant pipe is all about. For those of you unfamiliar with Shisha it is a muslim practice for men during the evenings of Ramamdam to relax instead of drinking alcohol. Essentially it is fruit flavoured tobacco dipped in molasses and then smoked with a large water-bong through decorated pipes. Mant persons at a time can smoke. This particular bar is very popular so its worth getting there early on. The Shisha pipes are about floor-to-table height and smoke wonderfully. The tobacco itself is a little expensive but lasts a long time. Thee tables outside are for smoking and give you a lovely view of a back cobbled street with the odd limo pulling up in it. I drank green tea while we smoked and it was such a refreshign change with some brilliant new age music and the food inside looked to die for. the only bad point was the toilet which although hard to find for men was cubicle-free. (not the pleasentist of surprises)

Overall, apart from this weird issue it gets a 9/10. An exotic change from those drunken nights out!!

    hey, how much is it for a shisha?

    The Shisha in here used to cost £10 for a medium and £15 for a large. A large will be enough for four people with unlimited coals, but due to the smoking ban the number of tables available is much reduced so call ahead!

    it isn’t a muslim practice, muslims forbid smoking during the holy month of ramadan as it is a form of self intoxication.

    Hi all

    The best shisha in london is in Tarabish located in Westfield London Shopping Centre in Shepherd bush. The staff are lovely, the price is cheap £10.99 and they amazed me with the health and safety they follow in serving shisha. they wash the shisha every single use and use tips, good coal not the barbeque one which causes throat pain.
    What amazed me the most that the waiter serving us is the owner himself. I asked him why your working? He asnswered: To know everyones needs and ensure my staff are providing the best service.

    I love the shisha there and would recommend to everyone
