We're not blowing smoke -- downtown Atlanta is set to get another hookah bar.

What Now Atlanta reports that B.142 Bar & Lounge is planned for 142 Mitchell St. this spring. The project is being helmed by James Brashears, who founded the Corporate Code, a non-profit which helps "displaced and disengaged" men in Atlanta with career counseling.

B.142's Instagram account describes it as "Atlanta's premiere hookah bar" which will offer "an experience where lux meets comfort, product meets quality and service exceeds expectations." The spot's Instagram account advertises that it's looking for servers, staff and "hookah experrts".

In addition to hookah and cocktails, B.142 will also offer up food and live entertainment.

B.142 Lounge isn't the only hookah and cocktails lounge game in the area -- rapper 2 Chainz and business partner Snoop Dillard opened Escobar Restaurant and Tapas less than a mile away at 237 Peters St. SW at the end of last year.
