A very nice English pub with a combination of Hungarian dishes in the menu as well. Located on a surprisingly calm and quiet street next to a bigger boulevard. Service was quick and the food was very good too, delicious. A pleasant place to have dinner not far from the busy tourist centre of Budapest.

Great place, great service. The food was just like the photos given, they have good prices and everything sums up to what a restaurant/pub should be like. I had a slight issue with my meal, which was on my behalf and they kindly refunded my whole meal, these are the type of places that deserve more recognition 👏🏼

Old Irish pub atmosphere, exceptionally friendly staff and a good selection of beers and spirits . Very crisp and fresh beer . I visited the place on the recommendation of a colleague to try the Cherry beer and it was a new experience .

We randomly walked in late at night cos most other restaurants had closed the kitchen already, and were very pleasantly surprised. Staff is lovely and welcoming, also there were almost no people so atmosphere was not noisy. As for the food, we tried two dishes and the langosh with pork and mushroom ragu was the best langos I ate in whole Budapest. Portions are quite big and prices absolutely acceptible. Definitely recommended.
