Destination

Budapest might be known more for its thermal baths and breathtaking views than its food and drink scene, but that has begun to change in the past few years. Check out these Budapest haunts where the cocktails rival those of any major city.

 

Boutiq Bar

This speakeasy on Paulay Ede Street is known for its tasty craft cocktails. Bartenders use fresh ingredients for their drinks and consult with you on what to want. Take the pressure off yourself to choose and let them make a custom cocktail for you.

 

Spiler Shanghai

This bar in the Gozsdu neighborhood off of King Street puts a modern interpretation on Asian food and décor, with delicious cocktails and an interactive staff.

 

Dériné Bistro

Staying on the Pest side? Walk over the Chain Bridge to this family-owned restaurant and bar on Kristina Square in Buda. The bistro is full of locals eating and drinking, and you might catch a glimpse of European pop stars.

 

Szimpa Kert

Budapest’s youth population has turned many of the city’s ruins into popular underground bars. This one serves cocktails and wine, but also acts as a revolving gallery for Budapest’s growing artists.

 

Lehuto Craft Beer Bar

Beer more to your liking? Try this beer bar in the Jewish Quarter, which has six rotating Hungarian brews on tap and nearly 30 types of bottled beer.
