Shisha bar & hookah lounge in Warsaw - Burley Club in Ochota

In a shisha lounge, what matters most is the person who prepares the shisha. Our masters have been doing it for years and keep learning. They don't have one recipe for everyone: they'll ask what kind of evening you're after and pick an aroma for you and your company. Or you can simply leave the choice to them.

You'll find the master in the room and at the bar - they take orders themselves, so you can ask them anything directly. They bring the hookah to your table ready and check on it during the evening. Every guest gets their own new mouthpiece.

Burley Club is a shisha bar in the classic sense: a place for a long evening at the table, not a quick drink. The evening starts with a carafe of water with lemon - we put it on your table before you've even opened the menu. After that it's your pace: shisha, tea, a cocktail, a round of a board game, a long conversation. The music is kept low, so you can hear the person across the table.

The staff are close by without hovering: they'll notice an empty glass, help you choose a tea and find a table for a slightly bigger group. They speak English as well as Polish, Ukrainian and Russian, so the language is no problem if you're new to Warsaw. In reviews, guests praise the service most of all.

Don't smoke? You're welcome too. Not everyone in your group has to smoke - people come to Burley Club for tea, a cocktail and a board game as well. Many guests come to us just for the tea.

Tea. Our tea menu is extensive, with a focus on Chinese teas: oolongs, pu-erhs, white and green teas. We brew them with a ceremony at your table: the waiter or bartender does the first infusions, in vessels modelled on old Asian teaware, and then shows you how to brew the next ones. Guests write that it's the best selection of Chinese tea they've seen in Warsaw - see for yourself.

Cocktails and lemonades. Signature cocktails with carefully thought-out presentation - the bartender will happily match one to your taste; the classics are here too. For an alcohol-free evening - house lemonades (Bloom, Red Lips, Rose Date, Mr. Green), coffee and matcha latte.

Food. We don't have our own kitchen, but you won't leave hungry: order burgers and snacks from Dobra Buła through our staff, and we'll bring them to your table.

By the entrance there's a shelf of board games - grab one, set it up on a stone table and play, free of charge. Looking for where to watch football in Warsaw somewhere calmer than a sports bar? We show big matches and tournaments on the large screen in the Main Hall and in the Private Room. If you want to see a particular match, book a table facing the screen and mention it in the notes - we'll put it on by arrangement and where possible. The Private Room also has a PlayStation 5.

We close the Private Room just for your group - comfortably up to 8 people, more by arrangement. A bigger crowd we'll seat together in the Main Hall, which holds up to 100 people for events - we'll sort out the details by phone. You can bring your own food, such as a birthday cake, if you arrange it with us first. Your own decorations - also by arrangement. For a presentation, a company party or a fight night screening, there are wireless microphones and screens you can connect a laptop to via HDMI. When you book, tell us what you're planning - we agree terms individually and issue VAT invoices.
