My Favorite Budapest Spots
Music & Atmospheric Bars
This live venue is an actual ship docked on the Danube - it offers great atmosphere and live a rich calendar of mostly international alternative music acts. I recommend you check out if they have a band that is to your taste, it can make for a nice night out on the river!

My favorite bar in Budapest - cozy feel, a beautiful artistic decor, a mix of ex-pats and locals hanging out together to some cool tunes. Call in before you go to make sure that their hours online are up-to-date -they unfortunately don't always keep them updated!

A delicious, reasonably-priced taqueria a few minutes away from the apartment. It is fast-food style so you will get served quickly, but the quality is great. I highly recommend getting the beef burrito (if you are vegetarian, they will replace the beef with more beans or rice, depending on your preference). It has been around forever and due to its popularity has actually turned into a chain.
