Getting here — Falafel HaRova, Hurva Square, Jewish Quarter

The stand is on Hurva Square in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City, right behind the golden Menorah enclosure, facing the square.

From Jaffa Gate

Come in through Jaffa Gate and walk down into the Jewish Quarter until you reach Hurva Square. The stand is behind the Menorah enclosure, facing the square.

From the Kotel

Where to park

One flat minute to Glidat HaRova

A one-minute walk, no steps: leave the stand, follow the bottom of Hurva Square past Bank Mizrachi, and you're at Glidat HaRova. That is why the 65 ₪ order — falafel, a drink, a side of fries and two scoops of ice cream — is a real thing you can actually do, and not just a line on a menu.

When to come

Sunday–Thursday 09:00–23:00, Friday 09:00–15:00, and on Motza'ei Shabbat from two hours after Shabbat ends until 02:00. The full detail, including the month of Selichot, is in the opening hours.

Arriving with a group

A group coming down from the Kotel or in from Jaffa Gate should arrange it ahead so nobody stands waiting. Details in groups, seminars and bar mitzvahs — how to book, and the supervision in what Badatz Yoreh De'ah checks here.
