RESTAURANTS

Truly magnificent gastronomy, in glorious settings. From cocktails and barbecues in the Summer Bar to haute cuisine in the Arabesque or in our famous Courtyard.

THE ARABESQUE The main dining room of the hotel, located in the Main House. In a gracious traditional setting, we offer a varied menu which includes Middle Eastern dishes as well as a varied international gourmet menu. Sample wines from our award-winning list, from bottles stored in our private wine cellar.	THE COURTYARD The heart of the American Colony Hotel. This celebrated Courtyard has hosted many famous guests. Shaded by tall mulberry trees throughout the summer and cooled by a central fountain. Open when weather conditions permit, the perfect place for breakfast, lunch or dinner.	VAL'S BRASSERIE Overlooking the pool and adjacent to the Cellar Bar, this informal setting provides lunch and dinner in the background of a crackling fireplace during the cold days of winter. Enjoy local dishes and continental specialties in a cosy atmosphere. Afternoon tea, a British classic, is served here with sandwiches, scones and strawberry jam.
THE CELLAR BAR Once the American Colony dairy, this is Jerusalem’s most enchanting and intimate bar. Floored with ancient pink stone, this legendary bar is a place to unwind for visitors and residents, and a popular meeting place for journalists from across the world.	THE SUMMER BAR This well-loved bar and barbecue, open during the summer months, is set in the romantic tranquillity of the Palm House garden. Let our friendly, professional bar tenders serve you with exotic cocktails, local and imported beer on draft, or wines from our cellar whilst you enjoy our popular summer barbecue.	THE TERRACE CAFE Situated by the hotel shops and at a focal point in the hotel complex, this café gives you a commanding perspective on the comings and goings of the hotel. Breathe the fresh Jerusalem air, sip a cappuccino or enjoy a cool drink and a sandwich - this is the place for a quick pause in your day.
