"Amazing bar in the Budapest downtown. Only had drinks there but next time will definitely tru some food. The atmosphere is great, it is quite eccentric but very homely, on the gallery you can sit on the floor even as it’s covered in carpet! Love the decor and real plants too.
The staff is very pleasant, the prices are great (650 huf for a pint of lager), overall highly recommend and will definitely come back!"
