DRINKING STREETS AND NEIGHBOURHOODS

We call them thirsty or drinking streets, for people who are thirsty and need a drink! Every one of them has its own vibe and energy. You will need a few nights to fully get a grasp on their particularities and decide which one goes better with your style.


45. Rotschild and Nahalat Binyamin

Tel Aviv is THE city for party rocking, with many of the best bars and clubs for all-night fun located around the intersection of Rothschild Boulevard and Nahalat Binyamin Street. We have lovingly pulled together a list of all our favourite spots from North to South, so you can easily find the perfect club to slay the night away. Check out our Best Bars and Clubs on Rothschild and Nahalat Binyamin Guide here!


46. Florentin

Florentin or the hypest place of them all, am I right? Wondering around the booming Florentin is always a good idea. Its narrow and, sometimes, winding streets are always full of surprises. Here, a new bar opening with a novel concept of craft beers, there a bohemian coffee opened after sun dawn for night owls and book worms and there an eclectic gallery street, open all night for our biggest viewing pleasure.


47. Dizengoff

Who hasn’t strolled on the three-kilometer stretch of fashion, food and fun? It is for sure a bar-hopping even, where every place has its own particularity. Go from a high-end cocktail making rendez-vous to this chill terrace serving nice wines from the North, or this nice yard serving unpretentious beers. Even in the middle of the night, you can always soak your drinks up in one of the hundreds restaurants of Dizengoff street!


48. Shuk and the Kerem

The Shuk is Tel-Aviv’s beating heart. Hectic, crowded and full of noises and smells during the day, it becomes an intimate and cosy venue during the evening and the night. When the fish mongers and vegetable traders pack up their stalls, hidden restaurants and bars set their tables and chairs in the Shuk alleys, ready to welcome a new night of great food and drinks.


49. Jaffa Flea-market

The Jaffa Flea-market, or the Shuk Hapishpishim as it is called, reminds us of the Brooklyn vibes : chill, energised, new and novel and always buzzing! Around this small centre of market for bargains and second-hand goods, cafes and bars occupy the space and fill it with conversations, laughter, nice bottle of wines and amazing Jaffa-worthy food!
