Tel Avivians are head over heels in love with Herzl 16 – and it is probably because might be because it gives locals in our Mediterranean city exactly what they need and nothing less.

The shabby-chic bar often feels like it was transported from Europe, set inside a restored building from the 1920s, which pours into a gorgeous courtyard.

Day and night, customers gather together to dine from Herzl 16’s artistic bistro menu, sipping on drinks from the elegant and fully stocked bar, or to enjoy a relaxing brunch. On weekends, Herzl 16 hosts a lineup of live music from Herzl 16’s lineup of talented local bands and DJs.
