Beit HaAm, the People's House, is on Bezalel Street by Gerard Behar Square, and its site says it is a café, a patisserie, a restaurant and a place for a drink all at once, open from early morning until night. There are no reservations: seats go to whoever arrives. In the morning it is casual and self-service, with a daily changing choice of sandwiches, salads, pastries and cakes from its own patisserie; at 17:00 it switches to an evening menu with full service, from bruschettas and pizzettas to fish and pasta, with cocktails, beer and Israeli wines. Alcohol is 30 percent off until 19:00. It is kosher under the Jerusalem Rabbinate, and the Menora car park is in the same compound.
