Betti from Budapest

I come from a smaller town near Budapest, and ever since I moved to the heart of the city, I have been on a mission to find the best spots for amazing coffee, delicious food, and killer views. It's become a hobby for me... I guess it is everybody's hobby, but I'm absolutely loving every minute of it nonetheless. I am an ultimate city explorer, curious about uncovering the coolest spot...

New York Bagel Budapest

Bagel Escape

"I love starting my day here with my personal favorite, the "Don Corleone" bagel. They offer a wide selection of bagel types, some served hot & others cold."

If you ever happen to be wandering Budapest's busy business quarter, or if you work there like me and have not yet discovered it, there's a cosy place called New York Bagel that serves delicious bagels.

I love starting my day here with my personal favourite, the "Don Corleone" bagel. Almost always, when I visit the office, I brighten up my morning with a bagel. The service is quick even when busy, so I can never be late for the early morning meetings.

When you walk in, you'll see the old-fashioned neon sign, which will make you feel like you've entered a portal to New York. You'll also smell the freshly baked bagels. They offer a wide selection of bagel types, some served hot and others cold. Whether you crave breakfast or an early lunch, this spot is fantastic. Give it a try next time you're in the area; you won't be disappointed!

Caffé Gian Mario

Italian Culinary Delights

My go-to is the Diavola pizza (spicy Italian salami), which is baked to perfection, and let’s not forget about the four cheese pasta - a true masterpiece.
