2 years ago Віка Іванова: it is necessary to add to this place:

It’s easy to find with good infrastructure. A place mostly for parties(there are a lot of students). The university is opposite the club. I don’t recommend A38 bistro but the bar is good.

We were there for a concert, everything was good but if you entered the ship you can't go out and back again! Also prices was so high and everything was very expensive


2 years ago Linda Officialdescribed this experience as follows:

The food was excellent in the bistro, and the staff was professional, communicative and friendly. They even showed us around on the boat. I have a lot of beautiful memories from here, amazing sound system and stage technology I love to come here as an artist or simply to have dinner and a nice talk with friends, or to have fun.

9. place - Café Gerbeaud

Café Gerbeaud
Definitely deserves 8.4/10!. This place was visited and rated 7775-times

What our travelers says:

3 years ago Dora Abelhow did he rate it?

I enjoyed the experience at Cafe Gerbeaud a lot. The interior is very elegant, and the cakes match it perfectly. The taste of their cakes is impressive, every ingredient's taste is distinctive, great quality. They also have a very good coffee, I had a latte and it was delicious. The one thing I'd say wasn't ideal is that the tables are pretty close to one another and you can't really enjoy an intimate experience, but other than that everything else was great.


2 years ago Amin Amin: it is necessary to add to this place:

Excellent food in middle of city center of Budapest.. Delicious lunch choice with amazing deserts. Service very friendly as pleasant outside seating. Interiors are unique en demonstrate richness of the city architecture. Highly recommended and not to be missed if you are in Budapest.


3 years ago Ivannaexplained best how he liked it:

Nice cafe in Budapest. We came here twice because they have delicious desserts and it is such a nice cafe to drink coffee or lemonade (the best one is the raspberry lemonade). They have a terrace and also seats inside where you can also buy things as souvenirs. Nice service. Not cheap.


3 years ago Jennifer Smith: it is necessary to add to this place:

Gorgeous interior of course, service slow as to be expected. We actually didn’t get the cakes but I got the aubergine cream and feta on toasted bread. Decent portion size for the price, and nicely plated, but the aubergine tasted somewhat fishy? Took forever to get the check.


2 years ago omri levywhat can I say about this place?

Right in the middle of Budapest, lay this beautiful antique boutique caffe. Great coffee, great hospitality and nice staff. The place is clean, warm and cozy. The cakes are really good, generous and the price is reasonable. If you look for a good local experience and great food and coffee- this is the place! Thanks for reading .


8. place deserves For Sale Pub

For Sale Pub
Numerically, he has the 8.4/10!. This place was visited and rated 7950-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Moshe Shaulwhat can I say about this place?

This restaurant / pub is just the greatest. It has a lot of dishes. Everybody will be able to find something to eat. Some of the dishes are very big. The Goulash soup is 1 litter! There are also wonderful deserts. The whole place is decorated with a million notes (for sale notes) and this is very special. When you get seated you are welcomed with a bowl of nuts that you need to peel and you can through on the floor


3 years ago Ivannawhat can I say about this place?

Amazing place, amazing experience. One of our favorites. This place is unique. Just to drink a beer or have dinner but it worth a visit. We had the goulash and was delicious. We also tried the ribs and those were amazing. The breaded vegetables were okay but nothing special. It is super recommended to book the previous day because they are often full. Good service and the live music is a must.


2 years ago EldaNeo: it is necessary to add to this place:

Not a usual pub-restaurant with all the notes on the walls and the pile of peanuts you get and asked to throw the shells on the floor. The atmosphere is great. There are many many dishes here, more then the usual (over a hundred I believe). The goulash soup is huge and amazing! Really recommended! It can actually be enough for 2 adults. Depend on how hungry you are. Also good service.


3 years ago Eimaito noumeroxtohow did he rate it?

Wow. Great experience. Very kind stuff. Food DELICIOUS, huge portions. Try goulash for sure and spaghetti with 4 cheeses. A bit expensive for Hungary, but value for money. The whole atmosphere great, as well as music. Highly recommended


2 years ago Mira Dsaid the following about this gem:

Amazing pub, amazing experience. Monkey nuts on the tables, straw underneath, notes pinned to the ceilings. The food is amazing, the plates are massive. 1 plate of food is enough for 2 people. Or 1 adult & 2 kids. It’s on 2 floors, toilets available, kids friendly. We as family loved it & will definitely be back!!


7. place deserves Trófea Grill Étterem Király utca

Trófea Grill Étterem Király utca
Definitely deserves 9/10!. This place was visited and rated 8117-times

What our travelers says:

3 years ago Simon Dekker Linnroswrote only this for this place:

My favourite place in Budapest. Been here 3 times and never dissapointed. Great staff, food is varied and delicious, awesome drinks. In my opinion this place is a must visit when in Budapest and I'll happily come back a fourth time!


3 years ago Anastasia Kurenkovahow did he rate it?

We were here for the second time, the best place for lunch. Format - smorgasbord, entrance costs €32 on weekends and €28 on weekdays. Huge variety of dishes, several kinds of meat that are cooked on the grill, a large selection of seafood. Waiters actively offer alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, quickly clean dishes from the table. Completely justify the cost, I recommend.


3 years ago Robert Wadsleysaid the following about this gem:

Food was incredible quality, dining staff were very tentative. Was offered 2 bottles of wine, all included in set menu price. I would only say that if you don't leave a big tip you would be something of a criminal!


2 years ago David Bennett- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

We didn't have a booking but they managed to find us a table and then apologised for the location of the table. The waiters were very attentive and helpful. The selection was very good. The food was excellent. Overall it was a wonderful experience, we couldn't fault it.


2 years ago Saeed Ninowrote only this about this place:

It was one of the best buffés I have ever been to. Everything was included the food, the drinks and there were many Kinds of sweets. The staff was friendly and very helpful.

6. place definitely deserves VakVarjú Restaurant

VakVarjú Restaurant
We rate the place at 8.8/10!. This place was visited and rated 8434-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Beatriz Araújo: it is necessary to add to this place:

My favourite dinner experience in Budapest. Ended up going there twice! Very nice atmosphere with piano life. Food and service are great! The take on beef tartare is different but I loved it. The goulash was great as well and very cute with the bread! Both times I had to have the cod with pesto risotto. Really liked it!


3 years ago John Abrahamsonexplained best how he liked it:

Truly one of the best meal experiences we ever had on our trip. The presentation, the atmosphere, the food quality, the pricing, all really amazing. Had we known about this restaurant on the front end of our trip, we would have dined there several times.


3 years ago B. Newton (P): it is necessary to add to this place:

The atmosphere is a solid ten, and if you come with a group or family I'm sure you will have a great time. The service however is a let down, the staff are disinterested and not present. The Hungarian goulash was, like the staff, a little disappointing for a dish that carries the national name. The rest of the menu is anything but traditional, and would be best described as modern fusion. There is a great buzz in the place, so maybe the modern fusion is the way to go. Overall, this restaurant is probably worth a try, but do not expect traditional food or the staff to add to your experience.


3 years ago Ivonig Corfmatwrote only this about this place:

I have been coming to this place a few times now and I have never been disappointed. The quality of the food, drinks and service is very good. It's fairly priced regarding the quality. There is live piano music, the style of the room is great and even a playing corner for the children. A great place.


2 years ago Sungwoo Parkevaluates this place as follows:

I visited this restaurant with my grandparents, hoping to impress them with the quality of the food and the service, as we had enjoyed it on our previous visit. Unfortunately, our experience this time was ruined by the appalling behaviour of one of the servers. After finishing our meal, I asked one of the servers where the toilet was located. The server lied to me at first, claiming that there was no toilet in the restaurant. Later, he called me back and told me where it was while scoffing at me at the same time. This behaviour was completely unacceptable and left us feeling humiliated and disrespected. To make matters worse, the tip was already included in the bill, so we had to pay for the service, despite being offended by the server's behaviour. When we talked back about this issue while leaving the restaurant, the server did not seem to take it seriously, perhaps because I was laughing. In reality, I was not laughing because I found the situation humorous, but because I was dumbfounded by such a rude behaviour by the server. As someone who has lived in Budapest for two years, I have never encountered such blatant disrespect in any restaurant. It is unacceptable for a server to make fun of their customers or lie to them, and it is equally unacceptable for a restaurant to include a tip in the bill without asking the customers' consent. I strongly advise the management of this restaurant to reevaluate their hiring process and to ensure that their employees treat all customers with the respect and dignity they deserve. I sincerely hope that no one else has to endure such a degrading experience when dining at this establishment.


5. place gets Sir Lancelot Medieval Restaurant

Sir Lancelot Medieval Restaurant
Definitely deserves 8.8/10!. This place was visited and rated 8649-times

What our travelers says:

3 years ago Jennifer Smithsaid the following about this gem:

The naming of this place doesn’t make sense and it’s super-touristy but the decor is loads of fun. A medieval British-themed restaurant serving Hungarian food? Sure! This place was recommended by our hotel and it didn’t disappoint. We ate around 5pm when the restaurant was fairly empty. I got the prawns platter and my husband the pork knuckle. Food arrived promptly after ordering. The portions are MASSIVE. Whilst it’s not the cheapest meal, the amount of prawn skewers on the plate (which were yummy, dotted with paprika) would easily cost double in London. Remember there are no forks! Only spoons and knives. So a bit tricky eating salad with the prawns with a spoon but figured it out. Eating with your hands is encouraged. We walked out super-stuffed and happy.


3 years ago Carina P- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

Fancy restaurant! You feel like taken back into medieval times, It looks like a huge castle. The dishes are also very traditional. Very friendly staff! Huge selection of food, everything was fresh and the plates were very big. Would definitely come back again and can totally recommend it 👍


2 years ago Chris Awhat can I say about this place?

We had an absolutely amazing time at Sir Lancelot! The atmosphere was incredible and really made me feel like I was transported back in time to the Middle Ages. The staff were all dressed in period costumes and were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The food was also good. The entertainment was also top-notch, with sword fights and other performances throughout the night. It was definitely an experience to remember! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a unique dining experience in Budapest. It's perfect for a special occasion or just a fun night out with friends.


2 years ago Andrea Gargiani- why does he think this place is on the list?

Very charming themed place, the medieval atmosphere is perfect. Good dishes, from tender and tasty meats, to abundant side dishes, do not give you forks to eat, but only knives to cut the dishes, you must use ONLY HANDS. During dinner you can attend the belly dancer and fire eater show🔥🔥 Definitely to be recommended!!!


3 years ago Shlomi Mafudaexplained best how he liked it:

Tasty, fun, great experience. So different, you will not get a fork, we must eat with hands... This is brilliant! You will fill like you back in the knights days... The meat was great! Perfect made and good!


4. place definitely deserves Hard Rock Cafe

Hard Rock Cafe
We give 8.6/10!. This place was visited and rated 10645-times

What our travelers says:

3 years ago Arzu A: it is necessary to add to this place:

Just awful. If you're hoping that the reviews here are subjective and maybe things aren't so bad, that's a mistake. Tea was brought in a dirty cup with traces of someone else's lipstick and traces of tea inside. After asking, they changed it. The burgers we ordered had small bones. From the unpleasant, the burger from the kids menu was over salted in places. The Caesar salad plate looked dirty. The service charge is included in the bill, although I would not pay for such service. The waitress seemed completely indifferent, even after we voiced our complaints and she passed them on to the manager. After our complaints, as expected, there was absolutely no response. Dishes were not removed from the table. Before that, I thought that the most terrible hard rock is in Rome, but now I think to stop visiting this place altogether in different countries of the world. Of the pluses, I can note the children's menu, as in all hard rock cafes, not bad, the children like it.


3 years ago Ljubiša Kukuljsaid the following about this gem:

If you want to chill a bit in the morning or get an afternoon drink in a cool ambient this is the place to go. Stuff is the best. Really polite, ready to help and explain anything you ask. There is a "museum" as well with a bunch of stuff from famous stars. Epic place. You should visit for sure!


2 years ago Kathy McCandlessdescribed this experience as follows:

Can only comment on staff, vibes and drinks as we didn't eat. All good! Nice to have a good variety of music playing 🎶 Staff were in good form. Some awesome relics about!!! Good prices for drinks ☺️🥃


3 years ago oneofthebhoyswrote only this for this place:

Nice building right on central square, some great music memorabilia. Standard HRC menu, but very reasonably priced compared to most other countries. Service very good, as expected.


2 years ago Tim Bsaid the following about this gem:

Definitely a cool experience with the more than usual rocky theme. We were taken to sit downstairs, where the bar is also located and we walked through beautiful rock stars records, guitars, and clothings. Only thing was we ordered the classic club sandwich and that took more then 20 minutes to prepare, and of course the high price I don't usually feel in a hard rock cafe.

3. place gets Menza Étterem és Kávéház

Menza Étterem és Kávéház
Numerically, he has the 8.8/10!. This place was visited and rated 12196-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Ajeesh-Musthafahow did he rate it?

Good place to try out authentic Hungarian food. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. better yo reserve your seats or might take time to get seats in peak time. Almost all the dishes we tried was tasty. Goulash, meat stew, stuffed cabbage etc all are mouth watering. The starters are good too. So are the deserts


2 years ago Itay Stein: it is necessary to add to this place:

One of my favorite restaurants in Budapest. The menu is stacked and generally all dishes are good, with noticeable highlights like the Hungarian stew, goulash, and especially the roasted duck on risotto! The place also serves awesome drinks. Very reasonable prices, restaurant is classy and well-designed, and the service were very friendly. Highly recommended.


2 years ago sara gaeiniwrote only this for this place:

Totally recommended 😎 We ordered some cocktails first, which was obviously made there and not ready ones. They tasted great and unique. Then for starters we tried goulash and I can confirm that we all love it 😍 It is tasty and really different taste. For main dish we tried four different ones and each of them was great. Well cooked meats, freshly salad and bread. I will go back for sure.


2 years ago Chris M: it is necessary to add to this place:

Visited this restaurant as part of a team dinner together with my colleagues. I loved the interiors and ambience of this place. The service was amazing and fast. They spoke English very well. The food was about average. But not bad at all. I would recommend this place for some good Hungarian cuisine.


2 years ago El Atlas de Jonwrote only this for this place:

Great place to taste local food. There is plenty of space but it's better to book a table because it's always full. We had different local dishes like goulash or beef stew and it was delicious with lots of flavor, as it was the Schnitzel. Very good prices overall and at least when we went there, it wasn't touristy at all.


2. place definitely deserves New York Café

New York Café
We give 8.2/10!. This place was visited and rated 23051-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Monika Jakubczyksaid the following about this gem:

I have had nothing but fantastic experiences with this place! I had a reservation made for Wednesday evening. We were attended to on the spot by an over-sympathetic waitress. We ordered gazpacho, goulash for the first course, Viennese schnitzel and duck for the second, and lemonade to drink. The food was fantastic. The soups were delicious and quickly served, as was the second course. The schnitzel was amazing, the duck melting in the mouth. Plus fantastic service and the atmosphere of the place (beautifully decorated, a musician played live piano). The sum for the dinner came out quite large, but it was definitely worth it.


2 years ago armando g ramoswrote only this about this place:

The place creates a very nice atmosphere as the architecture of the building is remarkable. Went there for a private event, and the conference rooms are spacious, the staff was very helpful as well. Unfortunately, the food was very simple and the portions very small, with no vegetarian options offered rather than rice and potatoes.. Prices are super high for a glass of wine, but the service was fine. Not planning to go there to spend a fortune for a lunch anytime soon..


2 years ago Gerard Jean-Baptistewrote only this for this place:

From the moment you walk in, you know something special is about to take place. The restaurant has that enticing allure, drawing in beautiful people from around the world. The service is impeccable, and it's hard not to appreciate the stellar ambiance! And then there's the food: every item I tried was phenomenal, from appetizers to entrees to desserts. If you haven't been to "The Most Beautiful Cafe in the World" yet, I highly recommend you visit. You won't be disappointed!


2 years ago Andreea L.- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

Beautiful architecture and if you go, do check the inner courtyard from the hotel, really worth it. We arrived to find a huge line outside. They offer you a 5€ per person “priority” la e and you can cut your waiting time. If you can, make a reservation. The menu is available online and worth checking ahead of time. The building itself is indeed gorgeous and well maintained. Italian Renaissance style, marbled columns rise to meet ceiling frescoes and crystal chandeliers. The food is underwhelming and completely overpriced. You cannot even get a bottle of “tap” water on the house. And it is way too crowded. The fact that people come and only use this place for “insta pics” makes the atmosphere a bit laughable and less enjoyable. Prep yourself to see all kinds of outfits and party makeup


2 years ago Jana- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

I can understand why many people put negative opinions on this. But if you want to have a good time in an amazing building, this is a must see. We had a private concert of the orchestra, super friendly people. The staff was good as: they do the job on their on tempo. The prices are a bit insane, 8,5 euros for a latte. But you know you pay for the place. It was a good coffee. We also shared some dessert,they were very good. So you can decide on your own if you want to have a amazing time staring at the ceiling and feel a bit of the magic (there were so many cosy corners, lights, a Xmas three) with your favourite company or choosing something else for half of the price in another building. For me it is a one time moment but I really enjoyed it.

What our travelers says:

3 years ago Venkatachalapathy Chengalvarayanaidu- why does he think this place is on the list?

One of the Big Mall visited at Budha side of Budapest. There is a huge Medical store is available, we can get important life saving medicine from here. There is a eye catching rooftop animal statues which can be watched for some more time .


3 years ago Tímea Molnárováevaluates this place as follows:

Good mix of shops and services, you can find here everything that you need. Both buildings are worth to visit, it is connected by overpass. There is very nice park next to it as well. You can just relax there and enjoy the good weather. It is easy to reach by tram. Great place for shopping.


2 years ago Renz Lwrote only this for this place:

Great indoor mall for shopping. Several international brands inside, convenient for tourists. There is a big spar supermarket at the underground too.


2 years ago Roja Saketiyan- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

The shopping center is huge and good. They have many brands of clothes and home appliances, etc. It has easy access to public transportation and a private parking lot.


2 years ago Debra Shoopmanwrote only this for this place:

Most of the store fronts are filled, the mall was busy on a Friday afternoon, but not crowded. A nice variety of businesses, including a post office. The mall consists of 4 floors and 2 buildings. Pleasant, convenient location to shop. There are electronic directories on each floor, however they can be difficult to find. There is also a staffed information kiosk on the ground floor.
