Village Green

Open Sunday - Thursday 9am till 10:00pm. Friday till 3:00pm. Closed Shabbat.

The Village Green is for those who like their vegetarian dishes the way they were meant to be. Plenty* of menu choices and varying levels of vegetarianism (with dairy products and/or eggs or without either). *Plenty - Hearty soups, tremendous salads (you choose from a big salad bar of choices), quiches and pot pies (including seaweed, and many with whole wheat options), two kinds of lasagna (eggplant or zucchini) - all tasty (though I do like to add pepper and harif - hot sauce). The menu varies slightly according to which vegetables are readily available and in season. Prices are between NIS 15 - 20 per item, but keep in mind there is a 30 NIS minimum on the salads.

And great desserts - fattening and non! (Your choice, but you could probably guess mine!)

The Village Green offer two buffets. A scrumptious breakfast buffet (from 9:00am - 11:30am) which is the kind of brunch I remember from the old days! Or the lunch buffet - load up your plate, and pay according to the weight (4 NIS per 100 grams).

The Village Green is committed not only to vegetarianism - but to hesed and tzedaka (doing the right thing). They employ several special-needs people. On principle. Mainstreaming them into 'regular' work, 'real' life. Teezku L'Mitzvot (Keep doing mitzvahs!

Submitted by: Tania G, Date: 12 August 2003, Description: The Village Green Restaurant has one big advantage over any other restaurant. Apart from serving delicious healthy food, anyone on any kind of diet from diabetic, slimming and anyone with very specific tastes can, because of the self service style, choose exactly what they wish to eat from a wide variety of foods available, thus eating out becomes a pleasure not a problem.

Submitted by: marsandy, Date: 5/11/99. Description: This is a vegetarian restaurant which specializes in soups and bakes its own bread. A soup for each person and a large salad is enough for two people. The prices are reasonable and the food is very tasty.
