    OK. Not even sure if this is the correct board for this but here goes...

    Does anyone know where in Dublin I can find a shisha café or a similar place where one can partake in the traditional Arabic pastime?

    I have an Arab friend visiting soon and would love to take him to one of these places. He doesn't believe that Dublin has become so multicultural!

    So anyone know if they exist in Dublin?? Maybe our Muslim members might know best??

    Thanks/Shukran

    Well with the smoking ban, I would doubt very much that there's any around unfortunately.

    There is no restaurant/cafe in dublin which serves shisha to costumers.I dont even think that there was one before the smoking ban came in.
    If you happen to know some guys from the middle east,one of them is bound to have a shisha.If you really one,there's a shop on south william st(I think thats what its called!) that sells them.They are quite expensive though.O and if you are going to buy flavours,buy "al fakher" ones.
    shisha......mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    The Tea Gardens do Shishas.

    Didn't think they were all that great though when I tried them.. I probably spoiled myself in Istanbul.

    As mentioned, the Tea Gardens do Shisha, also the Moorish Café behind Jervis st and Café Rotana in Portobello (on the same road as the George Bernard Shaw, cannot for the life of me remember the name). Café Rotana also does mad tasty Lebanese food

    The Tea Gardens down on the Quays, towards the Four Courts. But they only open from 3pm onwards.
