Cozy cigar bar with shisha. Excellent service, I had a very nice waitress. The Turkish tea (with mint) was great, tasted authentic & the tea cup is definitely authentically Turkish. The shisha lasted a while & had a nice pull.

2025 UPDATE

I used to love Café Gitana & even left a great 5 star review a while back, but things have really taken a downturn.
The cocktails are no longer up to par, flat, watered down, & just not crafted with the same care. The tea, which used to be a standout, has lost its quality too, bland & forgettable now.
Service has become painfully slow, like they're running with minimal staff. The hookah is also disappointing lately, poorly made & they no longer offer flavor options, which takes away from the experience entirely. It's unfortunate to see a place that once had so much charm drop in consistency & quality.

Day or night, this place has an air of allure & escape.

Lots of different comfy spaces to settle into.

The live music heightened the atmosphere & made the night feel special. (jazz manouche feat. a bewitching violinist & keyboardist)

People smoking their cigars against the backdrop of the café's intimately lit, middle eastern decor transports you to a different universe.
