Beyond Four Walls: The Guide to the Good Life in Ramat Aviv, Neve Avivim, and Ramat Aviv Gimmel
In the real estate world, it is often said that a property’s value is determined by three things: location, location, and location. But what truly makes a location “perfect”? At RS Real Estate, we believe the answer lies in the small daily experiences: the ability to walk down in your flip-flops for a high-quality coffee, the premium deli just a short stroll away, and the country club where you’ll meet friends by the pool on a Friday afternoon.
The “Golden Triangle” neighborhoods—Ramat Aviv Gimmel, Neve Avivim, and Green Ramat Aviv – offer a leisure and culinary scene that has become a major draw in recent years, rivaling even the excellent education system. We took a tour of the neighborhoods to understand why everyone wants to live here.
Neve Avivim: Culinary Chic in Two Hubs
Neve Avivim has undergone a quiet revolution. From a sleepy suburb, it has transformed into a culinary gem offering the quality of central Tel Aviv but in a pastoral and relaxed atmosphere.
The Oppenheimer Street Center:
- NONO: This successful Italian restaurant has become the neighborhood’s “dining room.” Families gather for early dinners, and couples enjoy fine wine in the evening.
Delicatessen: The upscale market from the R2M group brings the flair of the Brasserie to the neighborhood, offering fresh pastries and gourmet ready-made food for the weekend. - Tagore Center – The Community Heart: Tagore Center is where it all happens. Here you’ll find the legendary “Hummus Ahrele” for a spontaneous lunch, “Metuka” confectionery for quality coffee and pastries, and a variety of other cafes that cover every hour of the day. The convenience of an adjacent “Shufersal Sheli” makes this a one-stop-shop for errands and groceries.
Green Ramat Aviv (A): Bohemia, Nature, and Local Secrets
The charm of “The Green” lies in its effortless atmosphere – a unique blend of students, professors, and families.
- Groneman: Don’t be misled by the name – this beloved cafe isn’t just on the street; it sits in a winning location in the heart of the sprawling Riding Grove. It’s the ideal spot to combine excellent coffee with a view of nature.
- Ottoto TLV: This magical “Kiosk” in Groneman Garden is the new pulse of the street. Coffee and sandwiches in the morning, and a light neighborhood bar with wine and pizzas in the evening – a perfect spontaneous local hangout.
- Coffee Art: A hidden gem behind Chaim Levanon Street. A cafe with an artistic soul, pastries baked on-site, and the atmosphere of a private backyard.
Ramat Aviv Gimmel: Luxury and Style Within Walking Distance
Ramat Aviv Gimmel is famous for its high quality of life. Residents enjoy two main entertainment and shopping hubs that completely eliminate the need for a car:
Schuster Center – It All Happens Here: The neighborhood’s central square provides a complete lifestyle envelope. For leisure, there’s the famous Arcaffe – an institution for closing business deals, and the Friday morning lines for Roladin’s Challah. On the practical side, it’s highly efficient: you’ll find a Carrefour supermarket, the Meat Store boutique butchery, and various banks and service providers.
The Complex at 1 Abba Ahimeir (Corner of Ben Yosef): A boutique, high-end complex offering a precise culinary experience alongside daily convenience:
- Magazzino: The cafe and bakery that brings a trendy Tel Aviv vibe to the neighborhood.
- Tenne: An experience in itself – combining a quality cafe, a deli, a premium vegetable shop, and a butchery, all at the highest standard.
- Easy Errands: The complex covers all bases with a Shufersal Sheli and a large, spacious Super-Pharm – all just an elevator ride away from your apartment.
Body and Soul: Where to Stay Fit?
An integral part of the North Tel Aviv lifestyle is the culture of sports and leisure. The neighborhoods are surrounded by world-class centers:
- Tel Aviv University Elite Sports Center: Located adjacent to the neighborhoods, this is one of Israel’s largest and most professional sports complexes. It features Olympic pools (indoor and outdoor), massive equipped gyms, an athletics stadium, and an endless variety of classes.
- Country Gimmel (Ramat Aviv Gimmel): A prestigious and well-maintained neighborhood institution that serves as a central social meeting point. Great pools, lawns, an advanced gym, and a community atmosphere that is hard to find elsewhere.
- Neve Avivim Country Club: The beating heart of the neighborhood for families and athletes. It is a more intimate, community-focused club offering a swimming pool, tennis courts, and activities for all ages.
Shopping and Brands: Luxury at Your Fingertips
- Ramat Aviv Mall: The “home mall” for residents, featuring global luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Dior within walking distance.
- BIG Glilot Complex: Just a 10-minute drive away, offering cinemas, restaurants, and home design stores.
