Really cute café in a 700 years old building. Lovely coffee and excellent service. There was a beautiful cat also that was resting. We had the pastries too and that was delicious. Highly recommend. The Brother working here was very kind and we had excellent service, Alhamdulillah.
The place is very unique and authentic from an architectural perspective. As for the coffee , it was delicious and did what it was intended to do. The owner was very hospitable and offered us chocolate on the house! I %100 recommend 😇☕️
The message café, a true Jerusalem gem, beautifully blends the city’s charm with Palestinian heritage. Azeldin’s hospitality reflects our culture: warm, generous, and unforgettable. A must-visit spot that captures Jerusalem’s spirit in every cup.

Tasty balanced cappuccino. Hot but I just kept sipping. One of the best coffee spot in the old city and its surroundings ^^ Tranquil. And the cat sleeping comfortably to the Quran.

This café is an absolute gem and one of the best coffee experiences I’ve had. The coffee served here is nothing short of extraordinary—each cup is brewed to perfection with rich flavors that stand out. The iced coffee, in particular, was a true delight, especially on a hot summer day, providing the perfect balance of refreshment and taste. What truly sets this café apart is the warmest hospitality you'll ever encounter. From the moment you walk in, you are welcomed like an old friend. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and go out of their way to ensure you feel comfortable and cared for. Their genuine kindness and attentiveness create a welcoming atmosphere that stays with you. The setting itself is stunning, with beautiful architecture and a thoughtfully designed interior that adds to the overall experience. Sitting inside feels like you’re part of something special—a serene oasis in the middle of the city with a unique, peaceful vibe. Not only did I leave with memories of

Shoaib Mahmood★★★★★

This café is so special, it was on the route to the Masjid from our hotel, and there we found the most wonderful hospitality in Jerusalem. The owner brother Azeldin was willing to make friendly conversation and gave us so much time. The iced coffee was so delicious and cooling, especially on a hot August day! And the internal space was so cool and welcoming, it had awesome architectural heritage and history - an experience in itself! Highly recommended to sit in and enjoy, and very fortunate to have made a great friend!
