Anna

Top choice in Jerusalem


On the upper floor of elegant Ticho House, Anna is a stylish spot for a coffee or an Italian meal. Nibble pastries, pizza bianca, linguine with mushrooms and truffle oil, stuffed sea bream or artichoke omelette, content with the knowledge that it's for a good cause: the cafe employs and trains local youth in distress.

The stone-tiled balcony feels wonderfully secluded during the day; reservations are recommended for evening meals.
