Ahhh yes… Vapor in Downtown Melbourne. I would say that I am a frequent visitor of this once fine establishment but that all changed last night. We showed up there for some Hookah and I guess the owners thought it would be a great idea to FORCE everyone to buy a liquid beverage or be forced to leave. I choose not to be bullied into spending more money at this place than we were already planning on. Usually when we go out we go through 2-4 double bowls of good hookah before calling it a night and most of the times, the bills are upwards of $75 and we don’t usually buy anything to drink let alone being forced into it. I have never been to a hookah lounge that made you buy a drink or had a cover charge… and there are plenty of hookah places to go to around town that do not and are cheaper. Vapor has really gone downhill over the past year; maybe the new management is to blame. Nothing beats being rained on while you’re inside the building because they don’t know how to take care of this building.



We ended up speaking to one of the managers regarding the issue of being forced to buy a drink or leave and he shrugged it off with his I don’t care attitude… must not care about anyone’s business even if they spend a lot of money feeding his family and are frequent visitors. To add further insult to injury… the waitress we had was a total (not nice word) and just downright rude so that was also a conversation for him to hear. The place is so worried about losing money yet we observed some of the servers handing out free hookah as they hit on people… wow and RUDE! NEVER GOING BACK AND I HAVE A BIG MOUTH.

Place is starting to look run down. Ok place to go if you are on a cheap budget and want hookah and beer. They do not have full liquor.
