Restaurants and cafes in Al Taysir Makkah
Al Taysir is a multi storey district of apartments and Umrah hotels lying directly west of the Grand Mosque, with residential blocks and hotel towers along Al Taysir Street and Umm Al Qura Road. Restaurants here serve massive seasonal numbers of Umrah visitors and pilgrims. Open construction sites and excavations around the district from expansion schemes create an environment teeming with insects.

Why they keep coming back in Al Taysir
Vacant construction sites and excavations in the district provide permanent damp environments for insects, especially after rain when they become water pools breeding mosquitoes and aquatic insects. The method is set out in full on Restaurants and cafes in detail.
Open construction sites offer massive insect refuges
Excavations and vacant land from development projects in Jarwal and Al Taysir provide sustained damp conditions. After rain they form water pools that breed mosquitoes in vast numbers.
Huge seasonal visitor numbers intensify pressure on restaurants
Hotels and residential blocks produce multiple breeding conditions: crowded restaurants, massive waste, densely occupied rooms and residents moving daily. Seasonal peaks worsen everything.
Hotel towers and old blocks create thousands of cracks
Completed blocks, modern towers and old blocks converted to seasonal lodgings across the district offer thousands of gaps and sealed voids that become cockroach refuges.
Landmarks of Al Taysir
Al Taysir restaurants are surrounded by residential blocks and hotel towers along Al Taysir Street, very close to the Grand Mosque and fronting Umm Al Qura Road which defines the district boundary to the south. The treatment route starts from goods inwards points on Al Taysir Street and extends toward the yard and external boundaries.

The places that decide the programme
A multi storey district west of the Grand Mosque surrounded by apartment blocks and hotel towers, bounded to the south by Umm Al Qura Road and adjoining Jarwal and Al Zahir, with open construction sites and excavation points from expansion projects.
Gullies and the grease trap
Gullies in Al Taysir may be shared between multiple blocks, especially in hotels. Old drains may run from nearby construction sites. We focus on opening inspection and barriers.
The cooking line and plinths
The cooking line in hotel and apartment restaurants needs careful inspection. Equipment may sit close to walls shared with flats. We focus on gaps and insulation.
Cardboard at goods inwards
Cardboard arrives in large volumes in Al Taysir restaurants, especially with massive visitor numbers. We advise immediate break down and disposal of all wrappings outside the kitchen.
Dry store shelving
Dry store shelving in hotels and apartment blocks may sit in separate storerooms or shared storage. We focus on gaps, ventilation and isolation from adjoining flats.
The back service door
The back service door in Al Taysir may open onto an open construction site or shared yard. We fit strong sweeps and ensure tight closure.
The bin area
The bin area in hotels and apartment blocks may sit in a shared yard. We focus on bin closure, daily cleaning and waste disposal during set hours.
How we work
-
1
Survey and site plan
We follow the food route from delivery to waste, establish which species are present and where the moisture is, and mark the station positions on a plan of the kitchen and the store.
-
2
Install numbered monitoring points
Sealed, numbered stations in fixed positions, read in the same order every visit so the file shows a trend rather than an impression.
-
3
Treatment outside service hours
Gel bait into joints and voids, foam into the gullies and the grease trap, and nothing applied to preparation surfaces, with equipment covered and surfaces wiped down before service resumes.
-
4
Scheduled visits and the site file
Every visit reads the stations and records what was found, the corrective action needed, who owns it and by when, and the file stays on site to be shown at an inspection.
What a restaurant programme includes
-
Opening survey and site plan
Species, entry points and moisture sources, with a plan showing where every station sits.
-
Sealed, numbered stations
Bait held inside closed stations in food areas, never open product near preparation or storage.
-
Gully and grease trap treatment
Foam that contacts the pipe wall where small flies breed, which is the step most contracts skip.
-
Targeted application after closing
Into joints, voids and the store perimeter, at a time with no exposed food and no team in the kitchen.
-
Reopening instructions for the team
What to cover before, what to wipe after, and what not to wash so the treatment is not undone.
-
A visit report and a running log
Every station read, corrective actions with an owner and a date, and a continuous file to show at an inspection.
What is different about Al Ghazza Sub-Municipality
Al Ghazza sub municipality wraps around the north and west of the Grand Mosque, from Al Shamiyah, Al Qararah and Shaib Amir round to Jarwal and Al Taysir. Large tracts were cleared for the northern expansion and the Rua Al Haram scheme, leaving excavated ground and open construction sites beside ageing blocks that now serve as dense seasonal lodgings in Jarwal and Al Taysir. Old flood paths still fall from Jabal Qaiqaan and Jabal Khandamah towards the mosque, and markets and eateries crowd Al Masjid Al Haram Road and Umm Al Qura Road.
Questions about this district
Construction sites and excavations surround our restaurant. Do they worsen insects?
Yes directly. Open excavations create damp environments for mosquitoes and aquatic insects, especially after rain. We focus on entrance treatment and gaps around the yard.
Visitor numbers surge seasonally. Does the treatment plan change by season?
Yes, during Hajj and Umrah seasons crowding and waste surge dramatically. We may need to intensify treatment and inspection closer during these periods.
Buildings of different ages stand around the restaurant. Does this affect the plan?
Yes, old blocks offer better insect refuges than new ones, but everything in the district has gaps and voids. We focus on your restaurant boundary and liaison with building managements.
Is treating exterior spaces like the yard as important as treating the kitchen?
Yes very much so, especially with construction sites nearby. We focus intensively on the yard, external entrance and open gaps.
Adjoining flats house Umrah visitors seasonally. Does this increase insects?
Yes, seasonally rented flats may have lower cleanliness standards, and new occupants arrive with new luggage. We focus on restaurant boundaries and shared areas.
How many monitoring points do we need in an Al Taysir restaurant?
This depends on the restaurant size and location relative to open sites and buildings. We usually place multiple points on external and internal boundaries for good control.
How much does restaurants and cafes in Al Taysir cost?
It is set after the inspection, because the price follows the type of infestation, the size of the space, how far it has spread and the number of visits it needs. Send a photo and a description on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Taysir.
