About this business
Despite not being known for its food, this East Village restaurant and bar has been a neighborhood favorite for over 20 years.

Amazing service and amazing people.
This place is wonderful!! The atmosphere is awesome and the hookah lounge is so much fun. I'll be back!
I really enjoyed cloister cafe! i came in just for drinks + hookah and I had a great time. The hookah was nice, the staff was really friendly and wasn't bothersome... I ended up staying and just hanging/talking for a while! The decor was beautiful, the atmosphere really laid back....
Restful music and relaxing atmosphere. Good food. It had been many years since we were here and did not realize the outside garden was now a hookah lounge. We were square and ate indoors to avoid the smoke. Our server was friendly but overworked and slow. Still, we enjoyed it.
Ribs were fantastic.
Friendly staff, great atmosphere and good hookah every time. I'm glad that I stumbled upon this place.
Best service ever.
Pretty decent place for hookah, or just to grab a couple of drinks. The outdoor garden is pretty awesome, and they have Pilsner Urquell on tap. The staff (especially the hosts) tend to be a bit standoffish for some reason, but this isn't a huge problem.
I LOVE CLOISTER! Have been here a good number of times and have always been satisfied. Okay so. Here are some things to note about Cloister: 1.
