Fricska

Pub, Beer, European

Fricska means “jape”, mischief or a prank. This philosophy is immediately apparent when you enter this culture-pub, situated right on the banks of the Séd brook. A curious mixture of an old vernacular house and a “pub ruin,” it offers street food (sandwiches and cakes) as well as a daily menu. Books on the shelves, cozy pillows and games, occasional reading evenings, concerts and children’s activities all combine to guarantee a good time.

Kultúrmacska café

Kultúrmacska means “culture cat” in English, and no, it is not a mistake: in this café there are real cats to entertain and to be entertained by while you drink; all in a cozy environment, surrounded by warm brick walls and full of sagging armchairs The coffees and teas are great too, as is the selection of homemade cakes, sandwiches and goffri.

Ikon café and bar

Skorpió Irish Pub

This café, standing in the library’s garden, is a hidden, cozy spot for tea or hot chocolate, or even for a good shot of spirits.
