The best bakeries - Budapest - Hongrie in 2024

Practical information : Take a break Budapest

Timetable

Cafés and patisseries are open between 7/8am and 5/6pm and often serve breakfast, pastries, snacks, and even lunch menus. Bars close around midnight/2am.

Budget & Tips

A drink/coffee will not cost you more than 3 €. Hungarians like to drink beer by the pint (less than 3 €), knowing that the most famous Hungarian beers - Soproni, Dreher, Arany Aszok - are rather light blondes. But craft beer has made a nice breakthrough in the capital. Hungary is also a great wine country: wine lovers, you will be served! Keep in mind that clubs and bars, even cafés and tea rooms do not always accept payment by credit card (increasingly rare).

Age restrictions

Eighteen is the legal age for alcohol (and tobacco) consumption in Budapest and throughout Hungary.

What's very local

Budapest's popular bars are often located underground, in a cellar that can be reached from the street (for söröző or borozó, or "PMU" neighborhood bars). Depending on the establishment, they are frequented by young students and less affluent workers alike. A handful of dilapidated bars are popular with Hungarians, but most are now almost universally popular with tourists.

Kids

If they don't drink, children can accompany their parents to bars without any problems.

Smokers

Smoking is not permitted inside.

Tourist traps

As everywhere else in the evening, never leave your drink unattended, and never accept a drink from a stranger: people have been drugged without their knowledge. Make sure you get your change, especially at Szimpla. Also, beware of invitations from strangers to have a drink in places that don't let you see the price of the drinks (you could end up paying €800 for two or three drinks).
