“Beyond the ruin pubs” 

“The first Hungarian “ruin pub” as  called in Budapesti  is renovated and is situated in a  a 7th district apartment building. “These places have become indispensable ingredients of Budapest’s charm in the eyes of the local and tourists” as explained the budapesti guides.

The tiptop bar is situated in  the highest of ancient building where creatives meet and develop their art : theater, concerts, exhibitions, contemporary art projects and fairs.

The guide ended “Apart from ruin pubs, long-standing cultural spaces that provide a forum for contemporary artists are still sought-after, but cafés, bars and hostels like to expand their services too. They host social events, provide a platform for young people for their creative activities and an opportunity to display their works. The young generation is more and more adventurous in choosing new, formerly unknown and occasionally extreme locations for their exhibitions. In fact, some new exhibition openings can evolve into an exclusive event of grandeur with the help of the tools of social media.

More and more people are getting acquainted with great Hungarian wines, our oenologists have an international reputation, and there has been a growing demand for artisanal beers over the last few years. The proliferating wine bars and beer festivals of Budapest add an extra buzz to sophisticated drinking. The bars offer an extensive range of quality wines simultaneously with exhibiting the versatility of Hungarian cuisine. Hence, a perfect harmony of meals and drinks is manifested in an agreeable and modern urban setting.

As the saying goes: “beer after wine and you’ll feel fine”. If you crave a beer, you have the chance to choose from several places serving artisanal beers both at the center of Budapest and in its outer districts.”
