Mike's Place
Tel Aviv
At a glance
Mike's Place is an American-style bar and restaurant at Retsif Herbert Samuel Street 90 in Tel Aviv. Its menu combines familiar bar food with Tex-Mex cooking, including burgers, steaks, pizza, nachos and salads. Food is prepared to order, with local and imported beers, cocktails and shots available alongside the meal.
The venue has a relaxed, social character suited to casual dinners, drinks with friends and solo visits that can easily turn into conversation at the bar or around the picnic tables. English-speaking staff contribute to an accessible atmosphere for an international crowd, while the mix of food, drinks and entertainment keeps the setting informal rather than formal.
Live music is a central part of the experience. Bands perform blues, rock, funk and soul on a dedicated stage, and the venue also hosts jam sessions and open-mic nights. Music programming changes by date, so the published schedule is useful for anyone planning an evening around a particular performance. A tip jar supports the musicians directly.
Sports fans have another reason to visit. Multiple screens show live football, rugby, basketball, American football, tennis, racing and other events, creating a communal setting for watching matches. The sports schedule is updated regularly, and the bar atmosphere becomes especially social when a major game is being shown.
A pool table and free Wi-Fi add to the venue's casual, entertainment-focused style. Mike's Place works for a family dinner, a meal with friends, drinks before or after live music, or an evening built around a televised match. The combination of American comfort food, a full bar, live performances and sports screenings makes it a flexible choice for visitors looking for an easygoing night out.
