Any ideas for a fun place near the kotel for a post Bar Mitzvah breakfast for 15-20 people?

Where to eat in Jerusalem on Shavuot and Shabbos without going broke. Needless to say does not need to be kosher, but should have fish and vegetables.

Shabbat eating in Jerusalem:
McD (on Shamai steet)
Spaghettim in Beit Agron
Aroma (on Hillel street not on King George)

That's all I can think of at the moment.

For the post Bar Mitzvah breakfast:
The Village Green (vegetarian) or any decent coffee shop like Rimon which has the space. In any case, with that number of people I would talk to them in advance and make arrangements, not just show up.

Of course any hotel will also do the trick.

Nothing within walking distance of the Kotel that I can recommend, sorry.

Enjoy!

The YMCA on King David St is open on Shabbat and has a varied menu..veggie options shouldn't be difficult.

thanks for the info. Hotels charge about $40/person for breakfast. I was looking more in the $10-15 range. I read about Spaghettim, definatley sounds like a possibility. Can you tell me more about Aroma.

Aroma is a tiny little self-service coffee shop with fresh homebaked goodies, good sandwiches (hot & cold) and drinkable coffee. The ovens are in the back of the coffee shop. There is outdoor seating which everyone just pushes around to suit their needs

Very informal and friendly.

P.S. The prices suit your budget of US$10 - 15.

i second Spaghettim. this place has a really nice atmosphere, excellent food, reasonable prices and is pretty easy to get to. ate there twice (i know it's a sin last time i was there).
