8 wine bars to try in Budapest

Change language:
Wine bars started spreading like mushrooms in recent years and each of them represent a different repertoire and a different character. While you find yourself in a romantic interior with dismantled bricks in one wine bar, you can try the most famous items in a sophisticated, trendy environment, in another one. It’s definitely worth visiting them and, to help you, travelo.hu collected 8 must-try wine bars in Budapest, which are less known, but all the more fascinating.
Have you ever wondered why it is worth going to wine bars? First of all, they have much more to offer than a simple pub. The staff is well versed in wines and answer all your questions, which makes it easy to pick your favourite. Moreover, they don’t only offer commerce items, but also the specialities of small vineries that you won’t find on the shelves of supermarkets. There are more than 22 wine bars in Budapest with different wine selections and characters. At some places you can taste bonbons with the wines, while at other places foreign wines and champagnes play the main roles. At many places the wines have takeaway prices, as well, so if you fancy a wine in particular, you can take it home for much cheaper compared to drinking it at the spot.
CultiVini Wine Gallery – V. district, Párizsi Street 4.
You can put together a personalised wine menu with the help of professionals, choosing from 56 wines. There are even three amounts of samples (0.25 dl, 0.5 dl and 1 dl), so you can try multiple wines in smaller amounts. They keep wines in special sample machines, which preserve the wines’ freshness for weeks.

Pohárszék Wine and Coffee – V. district, Aulich Street 7.
Panelling, black and white colours dominate in the cleared-out but still friendly interior. You can choose from desserts, coffees and, of course, wines. When choosing their wine repertoire, their main concern were naturality and high quality.

VinoWonka Chocolate and Wine Bar – VIII. district, Corvin Walk 2.
You can taste the wines and bonbons of Hungarian producers in this bar, which opened in 2012. They only have products that you can’t buy in hipermarkets. They welcome guests every day with 35-40 types of Hungarian wines.
