I absolutely loved the friendliness of the staff, the decor, and was so excited to have a variety of vegan options clearly labelled and communicated. The space is small and cozy. They are one of the only places which stay open during the sabbath days as well, so it can get quite busy in this time. Downside is one barista slams the portafilter way to hard many times per batch, which makes really loud banging sounds in the small space every 1-2min. We’ve all been to cafés with regular kitchen noise, but this was over the top extra and unnecessary. Hard to work/study with that. Still one of my favourite places though.

For now serves sandwiches (got one with cashew cheese — delicious), fava (so light and tasty pastry, alcohol and soft drinks (got two cups of mocha cause it’s sooo goood Almost everything is vegan. Friendly service and good vibe. We had a breakfast here on Saturday morning. The city was dead (no locals, no tourist) and having Bastet open was just great. If you’re in JLM please visit and support this place! I love this place. Extremely friendly service, atmosphere of freedom, decent food. It’s really not so easy to find a place in Jerusalem where you can feel so comfortable. Located in the city center and open every day. It’s vegetarian but you can veganize most of the dishes.
