Soho Pub - ישראל

Warmth gassing you will find in the city! big pub and big hookah

I traveled thousands of miles to the holy city of Jerusalem for one thing and one thing only: to get some beer. That's exactly what drew me to the Soho Pub. The environment seemed to be quite inviting at first glance. We sat down in a vibrant and lively outdoor patio that perfectly exemplified the type of ambience one would seek in this city of culture and mysticism. Our waitress arrived and greeted us with utmost friendliness. You could tell she was the fun one of the friend group. She laughed with us, gave us suggestions, and generally felt like she was just another friend of ours. We ordered our drinks and she happily returned with all of them. Our drinks were delicious and we didn't have a care in the world. We thought this would be the greatest night of our lives, but we could not have been more wrong. After our evening of drunken festivities, the time had arrived for us to pay for our drinks, and this is when our lives would forever change. Our waitress returned as a completely different person. She was extremely adament about us giving her a tip. Being the polite Americans we are, tipping only comes naturally. We already tip for just about everything, so she did not have to worry about us failing to tip. Nevertheless, she persisted. We gave her a reasonable tip and were about to depart when she stopped us in our tracks. She wanted to count the tip, shekel by shekel, and so she did. We expected a satisfactory response because of the fairness of our tip. However, she did not agree. Our waitress demanded that we gave her more money. We were shocked. Who would ask for a higher tip? She would, apparently. My emotions in that moment were all over the place. I felt angered by her sudden rudeness. I felt betrayed by her change of heart. Most of all, I felt heartbroken over the fact that someone who seemed to be so close to us turned out to be just another puppet to dirty capitalism. The pressure was too much for us and we gave in. She took our extra tip money and left us in the dark, never to be seen again. This moment will forever haunt us. Three stars.

Avoid like the plague. Worst tasting cocktails we have ever had. Waitress was friendly. However we were lured in with false advertising of Happy Hour, only to find out later that it doesn’t apply to most of the drinks. Waitress said she would discuss with the (arrogant) manager then never to be seen again. When we finally got the bill, we were told that a minimum 15% tip is mandatory.

I had an absolutely incredible time with my friends there. We received free shots and a hooka. All of the employees there treated us kindly and made sure everything was in order. The waitress was very beautiful and wasn't too pushy about the tip.

They didn't know how to make 3 different (simple) drinks I asked for. I was sitting at the bar, there was literally not one other person there and it still took over 10 minutes to get a whiskey sour
