Is this your business?Claim it freeA kosher dairy café-restaurant on the Ben Yehuda pedestrian street, the Rimon family's first branch, open in central Jerusalem since 1953.
The Rimon family opened its first café in central Jerusalem in 1953, and its site calls it one of the oldest cafés in the country. Today it stands on the Ben Yehuda pedestrian street, in a listed building from the early 20th century, with old stone walls and a modern kitchen, and the family still runs it. The day starts with breakfasts, among them the 1953 breakfast, eggs Benedict and shakshuka; from lunch on the kitchen serves salads, pizzas and calzones from the taboon, handmade pasta and fish, and there is a list of wines and cocktails. Three private rooms take events of up to 50 guests. The same family runs a branch in Mamilla and another in Beit Shemesh. The café is open Sunday to Thursday from 8:15 to 23:00 and on Friday until 14:30, and reopens an hour after Shabbat ends.
