Vörös Oroszlánhoz Teaház

The traditional fuel of urban Central Europe. It’s late afternoon, to fill the gaping hole between lunch and huge dinner, you could dive into one of the grand old confectioneries of Pest, such as Gerbaud, Mûvész or Astoria, for a cup of coffee topped by a Matterhorn of whipped cream, accompanied by a slab of some incredibly rich Hungarian cake, similarly slathered.

Looking for something less grand? There are many good places to have a coffee near the flat. Budapest has many small coffee shops and tearooms, which have plenty of charm and character. If you take a walk down Muzeum Korut, towards Raday Utca you’ll find plenty of great places to eat and drink. At the top of Raday Utca I can recommend this tearoom, Voros Oroszlanhoz Teahaz.
