A cafe / restaurant / bookshop hidden above a courtyard in one of the first neighborhoods built outside the walls. There is better food around,. but the atmosphere is unique - Yehuda Amichai sat there to write, and still, their Shakshuka was #10 in TripAdvisor's best breakfasts.

Kadosh is our favorite cafe/bakery. Mouth-watering pastries are made fresh every morning, and go great with the excellent coffee. Breakfast and lunch don't fall behind. Not cheap, but worth it.

Very diverse -- not only in the people and the merchandise. Friday is chaotic, and every night is an out night here. Get something fresh to cook at home. This place is a must!

A quaint spot with luxurious sweets. This ray of light opened up between the first Coronavirus lockdowns(!) and survived to tell the tale. Like many things that are extraordinarily pretty, it looks better than it tastes, but still worth the calories.

Being the only gay bar in town, the dance floor is too small for the crowd, but you can always escape to the terrace. Our favorite hangout, it has a nostalgia-packed wall gallery and fun music. Happy hour (1+1 on select drinks) nightly before 10pm makes this a budget choice, too.

The dance floor of this pub is quite small, but features some of the most interesting sounds and folk in the city. Enjoy local beers and mingling in the busy outside, or inside on cozy sofas.

This wonderful, picturesque neighborhood, which is Mazor's favorite in town, was an Arab village until 1948. Abundant with artists and their galleries, it's fun to walk around, with some nice restaurants and important churches to visit.

The building, which was planned by the architect responsible for the Empire State Building in New York, is more modest but just as impressive, and hosts concerts, galleries, a gym, a courtyard and gardens. There's also a lovely cafe where you can sit down and rest spot. If you're with a companion they'll let you go in the elevator up to the famous bell tower, and view the city from above.

Taken with though and love by the Armenian dynasty that has long run this small shop, the professional photographs inside open up a portal back in time into Palestine, cerca 1900s.

This is a mix between a co-working space, artist gallery, artist workshop and café/bar. A good place to stop to get refreshed, work on that e-mail or check out the alternative scene. The Moroccan gardens, which are outside the beautiful doors of the North African Jewish Heritage Museum, are definitely worth a look, perhaps the museum itself too.

Here you'll find many temptations for the rich and not-so-rich tourist, including jewelry, cosmetics, memorabilia, food and drinks. The walkway is adorned with sculptures by local artist, which are well worth a pause.
