We visited this pub two days in a row and had an absolutely wonderful experience both times! We ordered a platter for two, which was delicious, along with cocktails and beer. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and smiling both days — they made us feel right at home. As we came from Croatia, we especially appreciated how warm and welcoming everyone was. It was such a lovely experience that we would wholeheartedly recommend this pub to everyone! ❤️ and also we got chocholate from staff so cute🥹 If we had discovered this place earlier, we definitely would have come back even more times. Thank you for making our stay in Budapest even more enjoyable!

Lori was fantastic! We came for a birthday trip and I had a bingo card to fill in he helped me tick off 4!! He was so friendly! He was so friendly and the atmosphere was made by him! Good drinks, good food, good staff. Highly recommend

Very busy spot with not many free tables, but the beer prices are excellent - the best I’ve found in 3 days in Budapest! Perfect for a quick beer stop with a nice view of the cathedral. Didn’t try the food, but the place is quite loud and all tables seem to be for smokers, which I didn’t like. All the time you feel smoke.

We came for the happy hour and ordered 1L beer and a mixed plate with onion rings, chicken stripes, fries, chips. And some Langos. The beer was good, the plate was excellent. Especially the fries and chips, which were freshly made. The Langos were disappointed. Very small for the price. But the garlic sauce was yummy. I will definitely come back and can recommend a visit

Great place to be in the afternoon. 1l of beer for the equivalent of around £3.50 you just cannot beat that, and the goulash soup was delicious. Tried the palinka too but that's not for me. Would definitely recommend!
