Overview
- The couple says a K‑Fetisch bartender refused service after asking if the shirt’s script was Hebrew, declared she would not serve “Zionists,” and called Hebrew the language of an oppressor.
- After the pair left, staff photographed them through the window, then demanded their names inside to issue a formal ban, according to the couple’s account.
- The T‑shirt is part of the Falafel Humanity charity project intended to signal cross‑community solidarity, with proceeds going to the Israeli peace group Women Wage Peace.
- K‑Fetisch did not respond to media requests for comment, and reporters were unable to reach the venue by phone.
- Coverage notes the café’s shift since about 2020 toward antiimperialist and antizionist positions, including recent Gaza‑focused posts and events supporting “political prisoners,” which critics say has redefined who feels welcome there.
