The authentic taste of the Old City of Jerusalem is brought to life at Andala Coffee House. This is truly an ideal spot to curl up with a mug of hot coffee and a good book . Read more

Margot Mazur

The hookah is delicious, the food is authentic (rice with shakshukah!), and the mint tea is flowing. Can't go wrong. Make sure you're not in a rush, though.

Carol

Loved the food and the vibes. Indoor is really nice and reminded me of my time in Morocco. Def get the falafel plate and Moroccan mint tea

Anders Sjöstedt

Cozy little shabby-ethnic-restaurant in an old Victorian. Meze and tea is the way to go, head elsewhere for coffee .

Jeff Snyder

One of my favorites. Love the Turkish coffee , and the food is great too, the Andala omelette , for one.

The Wi-Fi really is funky here. My old PC never could connect and my new Mac can't either. Otherwise, great environment and food.

Hummus plate and fresh squeezed apple juice . Makes you feel like a BOSS

The indoor patio is a great place to work, lots of natural light and tables near outlets.

Double check your bill! These Guys run a great shop but because it's busy they messed up a couple of times! Have he baklava !

eliza bugs

Don't bother with their half-thawed pastries , especially the "chocolate croissant ", which is really a regular croissant with Hershey's syrup drizzled over it.

let4ik

Delicious authentic baklava (make sure to get some black coffee or extra water, it's really that sweet)

Michael Suen

Cozy environment and a diverse selection of teas and coffees . Service was a bit all over the place, unfortunately. The free wifi also wasn't connecting for some of us.

Egg and tea are okay .. coffee is below average, chicken sometime is perfect and sometime very tasteless.. I have noticed that during weekends food tend to be better

Simon Kwok

Friendly staff , slow service, decent tea selection , nice place to chill , a bit overpriced, nice mixed crowd.

The Foole plate is delicious and the tea is sublime. The service is a little slow but it's a great place to camp out and study/work.
