Jerusalem Bakery & Grocery

The service is fantastic, and the same goes for the variety of treats (awesome candy selection) and especially that pita bread.

Great food and groceries. The cheese, zaatar, and meat pie are so good. The warbaat are heavenly. Great place and the owner is nice :)

Visited this bakery while visiting NC and was give the fresh made pita since it was our first time. The pita is amazing and just as amazing 5 days later. It’s soft and fluffy. The female staff is very friendly and made our experience even better. I would highly recommend visiting and get some delicious pita and spinach triangle.

Loved the cheese pita bread. The oregano pita bread and the spinach sandwich were pretty ordinary. Won’t have them again. But must go for the cheese pita bread.

Great food, friendly staff. Love the fresh zaatar bread & triangles. Mmm. Lots of kid-​friendly snacks there as well.

Discovered this place 2006 and it continues to be my place to go. Love this place! Pastries are delicious!

Love the pita bread! Gonna try the cheese pita next time. My wife and I go there every week to buy pita. We have to stay away from the baklava… Too good to do not eat the whole pac! ***we get the one on the clear packs… Since it is fresh!

Service is nice. The owner is really nice to me and reachable for questions. I saw the cheese pita but cannot try since I am kinda full by the time I entered the shop. I was looking for the baklava but looks like they are either out or they no longer produce it in the store. But that does not forbid me to crave for baklava since they have organized bakalava choices in the store made in a box for people who want to have bites on all varieties of baklava. I had a box of baklava which costs 8.99 and the first bite is mixed with sugar and sugar and baklava. This is exactly I was looking for and I will come back soon!

This grocery\bakery is wonderful! I came here after reading all the glowing Unilocal reviews, and now it will be on my regular rotation.
When I first arrived, I kept scanning the fridge and couldn’t find any hummus… Strange. I asked the lady working there and she pointed me to a canned food aisle — canned hummus??? Less than $ 2? That can’t be right… I was skeptical, but because I was buying their freshly baked pita I wanted hummus, and didn’t want to stop elsewhere. Well — it tastes great! You need to add lemon (says so on the can), and I added some garlic and paprika because I love them. I’ll never spend $ 4 on hummus again! Chtoura Garden Hummus tastes homemade.
The lady working there was so friendly and helpful, and pointed me to her favorite brand of hummus and a feta-​like cheese. This tub of cheese will last me months and only cost $ 5. My tub of cheese ($ 5.99), hummus and pita cost $ 8.64. What a deal! They have great prices on spices and a wide selection of European chocolate. Looking forward to discovering more grocery gems!

Really good homemade baklava (with ricotta cheese – unusual but utterly delicious!) and bread. Delicious!

the fresh baked pita and lavash bread is out of the world and ridiculously cheap too! Make sure and try the turkish delight as well. Olives, Olive oil and dates are also very inexpensive. this place is my new fav!
Here’s a top regarding the baklava: There are two kinds, one that is obviously shipped in from who cares where because the one that you want is what they bake in house. But if you want it, you need to get here early because by the end of the day it’s outta there!
They sell if 6 slices for $ 5 and it’s made with ricotta cheese so it’s not too rich. You’ll know the house baked from the other because it’s in a baking pan in the case as opposed to being packaged.

Tight! Though Neat, Clean and well Organized this place takes advantage of the Space they have!
Bakery in the back! We picked up a Bag of Pita Bread and Baklava like everyone else that was coming here! Both were very Good!
Lebanese Coffee (in a bag, take to make at home) with Cardamom! I knew this existed! (NOT a dream)! Easy to make and as good as in Restaurants!
The Guy working here was Extremely Nice!

Went to this store on a whim this weekend for a gift to give in celebration of the end of Ramadan — I’m completely ignorant as to customs, just wanted to give something to a kind former neighbor as I know that they do celebrate.
Anyway, the owner (as others have said) was extremely kind, generous, and patient — and I’ll go back in a few days per his suggestion for the gift. I’m encouraged to go back and try more, for myself!

Never done a Unilocal review, but I simply must write about this store. Almost ran a red light driving back home because I was overjoyed with the discovery of this place and distracted by the aroma of freshly baked pita bread in the passenger seat.
Loved finding this microcosm of Israeli and Middle Eastern food in the heart of North Carolina. The owner is a delight to speak with and goes out of his way to ensure you find what you are looking for. Don’t pass up a visit to this place!!!
Mind you, this review comes after only one visit, so I’m sure that I overlooked a lot but here are some highlights:
Homemade sesame fig cookies — I’ll never eat a Fig Newton again
Lentils, beans — there’s much more variety here than at any grocery store round here
Pita bread — gosh, this stuff is dangerous it’s so good
Halva of all sizes and ingredients
Nuts and dried fruits were good prices
Spices, spices, spices.
Next time I plan to explore the Tahini selection and refrigerated goods!

5 stars for the super warm service!!! 1 star for the baklava… what can i say it’s not house made. I believe it’s made in Chicago. And they are too sweet for my taste, however my hubby seems to enjoy them. Will try the pita next time.

The people here are friendly and I’ve gotten a lot of european candy bars and baklava here. It’s affordable and tasty.

I come just for the cheap pita bread and the huge cans of grape leaves. I love this place and I highly recommend it

I wish that I could just wrap up Jerusalem Bakery in my suit case so that when ever I needed them, there they were! Yes, It’s that good! The Pita bread is hands down the best bread that I’ve had. You might want to try they’re Cheese Bread too, so freaken delicious!
They’re pita bread is what hits the spot, they’re cheaper, and taste much better than everyone around. I usually take a bunch home, put them in the freezer, when I need some I pop it in the toaster oven just enough till it gets warm. And It tastes just as good.
My family and I have been coming here for years! They’re products in store are also the cheapest around.
Also they’re sweets are awesome… a must try!
LOve LOVe Love this place.

This is my go-​to place for Middle Eastern groceries. Prices are generally lower than most competitors in the area (I last counted 4 others nearby). The highlight, though, is the fresh-​baked pita bread, which is hands down the best around. Neomonde doesn’t even come close. When they are hot out of the oven you’ll have a hard time not eating a piece in the parking lot. The owner is super-​friendly and service is top notch. If there’s anything you need that he doesn’t have, chances are he’ll tell you when it’ll be in the store.

By a stroke of luck, I discovered the Jerusalem Bakery in 2006. They bake their pita bread in the store, and in my opinion, it’s the best in the Triangle. If you’re lucky, you’ll arrive at a time when it’s being taken out of the oven, all hot and fresh and fluffy. You’ll never want that blah old «pita pocket» bread stuff in the grocery store again.
In addition to bread, I go shopping there for imported olive oil, cheese, dates, hummus, and some really great frozen falafel. And yes, sometimes I can’t leave without a cookie or a cheese pie from the glass bakery case. This place is small, but they fit a lot into the modest space. Prices are very reasonable and usually beat what you get at your local supermarket. The owner’s very friendly and eager to help you find what you’re looking for.
