PHAI
The hipster pups are filling this most beautiful lounge-bar in town, for…wait for it… healthy alcoholic beverages. Its interior is refreshingly decorated yet still provides the atmosphere of the desired “we are cool” slot.
The secret formula is probably their unexpected combo of healthy cocktails, a variety of seating areas, an urban garden style that will make your Instagram pop, and a New York atmosphere that lets you breathe between puffs of weed.
The minimalist wood decor is reminiscent of a Japanese restaurant, without the cold and elitist aspect. Inside, the bar reveals intimate and cozy booths with soft romantic lighting. Almost no clubs in Tel Aviv offer this sort of chill, Berlinesque courtyard.
