According to Magyarorszagom.hu, besides the Castle District, the spectacular view, the hilly surroundings, that come to mind, there are several other points of interest in the Western part of the Hungarian capital. One thing is for sure: it is impossible to leave Buda hungry!

Pest-Buda

Used to be a tavern, today it is a beautiful restaurant and hotel: Pest-Buda, where guests can try authentic Hungarian foods known from grandma’s kitchen. The menu includes tasty dishes such as fried sausage, traditional Hungarian fried dough, or goulash soup. Pest-Buda is not far away from the Matthias Church or the Fishermen’s Bastion, so it is the perfect place for having a meal during the exploration of the Castle District. The restaurant opens its terrace in the spring and summer, which provides a magical atmosphere for the visitors of the Castle.
