Restaurants and Coffee Houses in Tzfat and area


Most of the restaurants, pizza parlors, falafel stands, schwarma stands, and coffee houses in Tzfat are kosher, but the consumer should always check to insure that the certificate is up-to-date. The Tzfat Rabbinute gives a certification, and there is a mehadrin hechsher as well.

There are no restaurants open in the main part of town on Shabbat or holidays. Visitors must plan ahead of time for their meals.

All phone numbers are listed as if being dialed from within Israel. If calling from outside of Israel, dial "972" first and then drop the first "0".
