Several traditional Irish pubs can be found dotted through the city of Tel Aviv to ensure you can still sup on a pint of ale or stout during your stay in the city. Soccer games (both British and Israeli) are often shown on the big-screen.
Here are the spots that made our list:
Agnes Ibn Gabirol: A local bar with a combination of music, burgers, and pizza. If you head downstairs, there’s a pub with more of a British vibe. There’s a wide selection of fresh beers on tap, which contributes to the relaxed atmosphere.
