Banquet hall open house
RANSHAW - An open house will be held at the Brady Fire Company Banquet Hall from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, June 26.
Hookah lounge opening soon
BLOOMSBURG - Mike Pasquini, 27, a Bloomsburg businessman, plans to open the Crimson Lion Bloomsburg, a late-night hookah lounge and coffee shop by the fall semester at Bloomsburg University.
The Press Enterprise reported that Pasquini and two partners want to open the Middle Eastern-style establishment at 37 E. Main St., next to the Capitol restaurant.
It would cost between $9 and $20 to rent a hookah, which is a water pipe used to heat tobacco so people can inhale the vapors without burning it, Pasquini told the Bloomsburg newspaper.
He expects to be open from noon to 1 a.m. Monday through Saturday and thinks the space can accommodate between 60 and 80 people and live music.
