Lovers of Middle Eastern cuisine in Batumi should definitely take a look at Falafel HGalil. This establishment, founded by immigrants from Israel, specializes in falafel and hummus, and in fact the entire menu here is suitable for vegans.
On Reddit, a local resident noted that "Falafel HGalil at 4 Sheriff Himshiashvili St. makes excellent hummus, falafel, zaatar, etc." Falafel is served as filled pita sandwiches or on a plate with salad and tahini sauce.
The portions are large, the pita is fresh, and the hummus is praised as one of the best in town.
In addition, you can try dishes from the Israeli house here: for example, they also have shakshuka (it's with egg, that is, for vegetarians, but not vegans), tabouleh salads, baked eggplant and spicy soups.
The setting is quite simple – it's more like a fast food cafe, sometimes referred to as fast food.
Nevertheless, the quality of the food is excellent: the ingredients are fresh, the spices are imported from Israel, and the owner-chef himself often cooks.
Falafel HGalil is conveniently located near the waterfront, so you can take a falafel shawarma and have a picnic by the sea. The establishment is mentioned in many reviews in 2025 as “a godsend for vegans in khachapuri country.”
The presence of a traditional Middle Eastern taste is especially valuable: sometimes after Georgian dishes you want something else, and then nutritious chickpea balls come to the rescue. Note: recently, another Exodus restaurant from an Israeli chef opened in Batumi, but it is more of a mixed format.
Falafel HGalil, on the other hand, is a time–tested guideline for anyone looking for a quick and satisfying vegan snack.
Judging by Yandex.According to the maps, the restaurant has opening hours from morning to late evening (usually ~10:00-22:00).
Be sure to try their signature falafel in a pit and thick hummus with olive oil – the real taste of Tel Aviv on the Black Sea coast.
