Whether you are looking to grab some breakfast, eat a filling meal, or drink to the fact that the end of the pandemic is finally in sight, we have got a recommendation for you. Warning: opening times might change during the first days, so make sure to check in advance.
Hadik Café
A piece of literary history in the 11th district: this was where renowned writers Frigyes Karinthy, Dezső Kosztolányi, and Zsigmond Móricz regularly met in the 1910s. Reopened in 2010, the café’s appeal has not changed since then, only its menu: nowadays, in addition to a variety of drinks, they also offer a selection of mostly traditional Hungarian meals, including, of course, some goulash.
Address: 1111 Budapest, Bartók Béla út 36.
Open: 11:30 – 19:00
Zsiráf
Sometimes, all you need is a bit of a break and some beer. If you feel the same, Zsiráf has got you covered. Just a stone’s throw away from the bustling Nyugati Railway Station, Zsiráf is a bit like a hidden oasis where you can grab a drink and kick back comfortably. The terrace is adorned with fairy lights; therefore, at night, it looks like a place straight out of a romantic movie.
Address: 1062 Budapest, Teréz körút 53.
Open: 14:00 – 21:30
Esetleg Bar & Bistro
If you would like to enjoy the view as much as your food or drinks, Esetleg is the place to go. Located in southern Pest, right by the Danube, you can take in the sight of the Gellért Hill and Liberty Bridge as you munch or sip on whatever you choose from the menu, which seems to have something for everyone, from meat and fish lovers to vegetarians.
