Stex Ház Budapest
Restaurant and "gambling house"
Zoltán from Budapest
Restaurant and coffee house, lottery and betting office. (but not a casino!)
The old Mr Stex lived in and for the gambling world (he had a betting office and it still works in this place). His son made the restaurant. If you have ordered, you can read witty old stories about Alfréd Stex at the tables.
Since sports are a part of the gambling world, you can also watch major sport events on their projector.
They have special fresh unpasteurised beer poured from an old-style tank and delicious food made by a good chef.
It’s a great place for breakfast, dinner or lunch, or just to drink a beer or coffee. The interior and the furniture and the works of art shows us the world of the citizens and gentry from the past century.
Stex is a calm, avuncular and comfortable place, so when I go out with my parents, we go there.

Slow-cooked hot chocolate
Rengeteg is a cozy dreamworld with very old, strange furniture, tons of teddy bears, and calm French music in the background — be warned it may take a while!
