Tel Aviv: Hilton Bay Club (August 2018)


We were staying at the Hilton, so we walked down the steep paved seaside walk for some drinks at the Hilton Bay Club (no relation to the hotel other than the first word in its name). The club offers only outdoor seating, either on their raised deck (covered by a roof) or on the sand (at tables covered with umbrellas). Service is provided in both seating areas; however, we received really abysmal service for some reason, perhaps because we were just having drinks. When we tipped the waitress only 10% upon paying our bill (which wasn’t much for just one round of drinks), she complained to our faces that we hadn’t left her enough!
