The Best Places for a Night Out in Eilat, Israel

Making a name for itself as one of Tel Aviv’s best cocktail bars, Jasper John’s recently opened a second branch, under a slightly different name, in Eilat. Located inside the newly renovated Agamim Hotel, one of the finest places to stay in Eilat, this establishment has well and truly raised the bar in terms of quality and elegance in the local nightlife scene. Its contemporary New York atmosphere and design is complemented by the expertly crafted cocktails and equally delicious food (expect a Middle Eastern-Mediterranean-Asian fusion, featuring plenty of fish). For a night out in style, this is the place to go.

Located on the Royal Beach Promenade, this is the oldest pub in Eilat and it’s very popular for its live music and DJ performances throughout the week. Open until late, it has a dance floor, decent pub grub and a pleasant outdoor seating area where you can relax while enjoying the sea breeze. Football fans will be delighted with their screenings of big games. If fancy cocktail bars or nightclubs aren’t your thing, then this is a cheap and cheerful spot for a few beers in a casual setting.

Those seeking a night of clubbing into the early hours needn’t look further than this establishment.
