Koala lounge
About This Spot
Stepping into Koala Lounge feels like settling into a relaxed, inviting corner of Hackensack where comfort and casual connections come first. The moment you cross the threshold, the soft hum of good music and the warmth of carefully curated art create a space that gently slows the pace of the day. Plush couches and cozy seating arrangements invite lingering conversations, making it a haven for groups or anyone looking to unwind in a quietly vibrant setting.
This is a spot where flavors comfortably live between familiar favorites and subtle twists, reflecting a menu that complements the easygoing atmosphere. Whether you’re savoring a juicy burger crafted from premium cuts or enjoying lighter bites like fresh salads, every dish feels thoughtfully prepared to match the laid-back yet confident spirit of the lounge. The BYOB policy adds a personal touch, allowing guests to bring a bottle that fits their own mood as they settle in.
Beyond the food, Koala Lounge’s distinctive personality shines through its well-loved hookah offerings, where a variety of flavors add a leisurely, shared element to gatherings. It’s a place where moments extend effortlessly—friends laughing, catching up, celebrating birthdays, or simply appreciating the comfortable vibe that the staff intentionally nurture through genuine hospitality.
In a neighborhood filled with options, Koala Lounge stands out as a quietly magnetic spot—a blend of casual dining and a chill hookah lounge that feels less like a venue and more like a welcoming living room for those who appreciate relaxed, human moments over hurried service or formality.

I can’t say enough great things about this place! I made a reservation for about 15 people for a birthday party and everyone LOVED it. The food, atmosphere, hookah, and the staff truly made my experience so special. As soon as you walk in, the art is stunning and the couches gave the place such a comfortable and chill vibe. They had a lot of hookah flavors to choose from and we also really enjoyed all of the mixers we ordered. I highly recommend this spot for your next party or even just to come hang out for a while with some friends. Thank you!!

Nice hookah lounge with good food, had the koala burger it was great, very tasty. The Caesar salad was good, it even brought some extra dressing. The hookah was nice and smooth, got the blue mist flavor, might go for mint next time!!
