Budapest has quietly become one of Central Europe's most compelling specialty coffee cities. Split by the Danube into hilly Buda and flat Pest, the city's cafe culture runs deep, and a new generation of roasters and baristas has layered world-class specialty coffee on top of that tradition.
V. kerulet (Belvaros-Lipotvaros) is the heart of the action.
