Beraria Hanul cu Tei (translated as The Inn with the Linden Tree Beer House) is a beer house situated in one of the few remaining inns (The Linden Inn) of the many typical inns Bucharest used to have in the old times. The Linden Inn was built in 1833 and at the moment houses an art gallery, a restaurant and this beer house.
Hanul cu Tei Beer House is the perfect spot to have a traditional Romanian lunch, enjoy a football game on TV with a good beer or just listen to the live music that's usually performed during weekends. It's the place to enjoy a night out with your friends around one of the big barrel tables they have.
I like the fact that they have an 'all you can eat' policy for lunch and for a pretty decent amount of money you get to eat a lot of delicious traditional Romanian dishes, that I am usually too lazy to cook on my own at home because they usually take a lot of time.

I highly recommend the Pho - it's the best I've had in ages! The broth is rich and savory, and the noodles are cooked to perfection...

"Băcănia Fermierului" is a grocery shop in Bucharest with local products, esp. from Vrancea. You can also have breakfast made just with their own produce!

"Zissou Coffee Shop" is probably the smallest coffee shop in Bucharest, but it gathers big-hearted people. I recommend their chai latte in winter!

"La Petite Bouffe Cotroceni" in Bucharest is a cross between a French-style boulangerie, a coffee shop & a bookstore. One of my favorite lonely-time spots.

"Cofetăria Alice" in Bucharest take me back to the old days. I recommend the Tortul Jeni. Preorder it online to skip the (quite long) queues!

I also come here when I just wanna sit on a bench (there are plenty of those here) and have a snack, read a book, or even have a picnic with my loved ones.

The options are limited (and I absolutely love that) & every burger has ingredients matched to perfection from the thyme and garlic toasted sourdough bun.

Every sandwich on the menu comes with a pickle so you just have to order some fries for a full menu (my go-to is the pastrami poutine version)...

Both young and old now gather here for a cheap beer and the best mici in town! Be prepared for LONG waiting lines, especially on festive days and weekends.

Their head waiter Catalin is the perfect guide for this culinary experience. He knows the menu by heart and always has some menu tweaks/hacks to offer.

Everything is done taqueria style: there are 5-6 tables inside, everything you order is served in less than 5 minutes, and you're gonna eat it even faster.
