What’s your favourite local restaurant? “Halkakas is a great
new place that serves only fish dishes. The catfish curry is
really tasty [

].”
Your favourite neighbourhood bar? “There are lots of
traditional ruin bars in this area, and Szimpla Kert is among
the best. You’ll often find a film screening, live music and
DJs, all in one night [
14 Kazinczy utca; tel: +36 1 352 4198
].”
Can you give us a secret tip? “This is the best area for bars:
you can visit about five or six within 200m of each other.
In summer the gardens are really lively, but actually not
many people from outside the area go out here.”

What’s your favourite local restaurant?
“Baldaszti’s Grand is part of a three-restaurant
chain. It has good food and lots of cocktails at
fair prices, served in a huge, light dining room
[
8 Andrássy út; tel: +36 30 982 1643
].”
Your favourite neighbourhood bar? “I like
electronic music, and Club Romkert often
has electronic nights. The people there
are fashionable and there’s a good vibe
on the outdoor terrace in the summer
[
9 Döbrentei tér; tel: +36 30 351 5217
].”
Can you give us a local’s tip? “After dark,
wander up to the castle to see the city all lit up.
The viewing platform is free at night and there
are often people drinking and playing music,
both there and in the gardens on your descent.”
