What to do in Nazareth

Found Yourself in Nazareth? Here are our culinary reccomendations.

Start your day with a coffee at Amani Cafe, located in the heart of the Old City. They offer coffee and a tasty brunch menu while playing Fairouz in the background.

It’s a perfect spot to kick off your visit and you might have a cat visitor for a minute or two.

You can also head over to Liwan, a charming local shop where you can enjoy a cheeky glass of wine or a coffee and it’s another great place to start your day.

While you're there, be sure to browse their selection of beautiful gifts, including posters, jewelry, ceramics, and other cultural and artistic treasures.

In the afternoon, don’t miss a visit to Cantina Cana, a local winery that produces their sweet wines in Nazareth and dry wines in Bethlehem. While the wines might not be the best you've ever had, they offer great value for your money. You can buy four bottles for 100 shekels, which is a perfect pairing for a sunset from a lovely rooftop, especially if you are on a tight budget.

For breakfast, or for a midday snack, head to this pastry shop. One of our highlights of Nazareth is definitely the Al Mishhadawy Bakery in the Old City. It's home to some of the best Arab fatayer and pastries we've ever tasted.

We highly recommend their freshly made pastries, especially the spinach and cheese, as well as the oregano and cheese fatayer. Don’t forget to try the tabun chicory greens and spinach labneh roll — a real treat.
