Bar Ilan: Faculty of Alcohol and Delicatessen Sciences (Weshow company)

Bar Ilan, the pub known by the locals after the name of the street where it is located, the Pioneers Pub, is easy to miss, but there are good reasons to insist on finding it.

Among the mysteries of Levinsky Market and its surroundings you will find the place, which is a bit reminiscent of an old tavern, a warm place to come and relieve the burden of the day, a place that invites a slightly more mature, quality population, and attracts quite a few people from around Tel Aviv and the surrounding area, but also quite a few regular customers come Also here from Be'er Sheva, Jerusalem and Haifa.

Bar Ilan opened 13 years ago.

Ilan Luft, a former diamond worker, who retired at the time, chose not to go fishing in the early hours of the morning, but to do what he really loves, entertaining friends and passers-by and pampering himself with fine alcohol and delicacies that he prepares himself.

"It's like old times"

Quite a few of those who visit here for the first time feel nostalgia in the air.

Most of them become regular customers.

With a total of 25-35 seats, the place does not hold a large crowd, but that is exactly what makes it special.

Along with quality beers, a select menu of delicacies, design in the style of a neighborhood European pub and music at the request of the audience, there is no one who does not feel at home here.

This is exactly the place to go at the end of the work day and relax.

Ilan knows the customers by name and knows exactly what they like to hear, eat and drink, which gives everyone here a feeling of home.

When you say "welcome" to someone, that's what it means.

Bar Ilan's proximity to the Levinsky market allows Ilan to prepare the dishes from the finest and freshest ingredients.

Brought fresh goods here every day.

Fine choice olives, fresh fish and a selection of vegetables that he buys and gathers every day allow him to offer a supremely fine menu.

He prepares the pickled herring, the chopped liver, the refined matias and even the potato-filled carpelach with his own hands.

On weekends, he pampers himself with a fine homemade cholent that always ends up to the last spoonful.

But a bar is mostly alcohol.

And here the alcohol portions here are particularly indulgent.

Ilan makes sure to serve no less than 80 ml per portion, a significant addition to the standard portion served in bars. The slow-pour beer from the barrel is one of the best in the city, alongside an impressive selection of bottled beers from around the world. Along with treats and hearty serving, enjoyment is guaranteed, Indeed, everyone is enjoying themselves here to the maximum, this is the highest quality transit station you will find here.

Age is only a number

of his age Ilan chooses to take advantage of every moment of the day.

In the morning he patrols the market and collects the selected goods that he carefully searches for.

In the evening hours, he spends time at the bar, and as he gets older and wants to take advantage of every minute of the day, he prefers to do it preferably in a good atmosphere and with people who are fun to spend time with.

Already in his youth, Ilan was attracted to this lifestyle.

At the time he would come home from work in the afternoon and evening and go out to end the day spending time hanging out in the neighborhood pub.

He soon realized that this was the next dream he would like to fulfill, which hastened his retirement and led to the opening of the most pleasant and high-quality bar in Tel Aviv.

To feel everything we have told you here, you will just have to come and experience it yourself.

And don't forget to say who sent you.
