Szimpla Kavezo - Budapest

It’s the only ruin bar that I’ve visited and I’m totally satisfied with my experience. The atmosphere of the place is eclectic and so unique, you will never find a similar interior elsewhere. Suitable for both a casual drink and having a party.

Szimpla Kert is a hidden gem! We had an amazing time here and discovered it to be a truly authentic and unique place. Its alternative urban style adds to its charm, creating a one-of-a-kind experience. With multiple bars inside, there is something for everyone, and the prices for beer starting at 5€ are reasonable. The wine bar offered a wide selection of wines, and you could order anything from cocktails to soft drinks, just like any other bar. The location is wonderful, with plenty of opportunities for great photos, especially upstairs where there is lots of greenery and a spacious atmosphere. Smoking is allowed nearly everywhere outside, and there is even the option to enjoy a nice hookah. The only downside was the somewhat unwelcoming and dirty toilets, but oddly enough, it somehow fits the vibe of this alternative party spot. During the daytime, finding a spot is easy, but after 8:00 PM, it can get a bit crowded. Overall, I would give Szimpla Kert a solid 5-star rating. It is definitely the best place in Budapest, and its location in the Jewish quarter surrounded by other bars, cafes, and food spots makes it a destination not to be missed.

No food is served at all, but it was not disappointing. My loved ones were just as impressed as I was when I first visited 7 years ago. This place is a must-visit for anyone in Budapest. We went on a Monday night and there was no cover charge or lines. Not suitable for children.

This restaurant is incredible! It is filled with unique and random decorations everywhere and it is very spacious. There are so many bars and interesting little rooms that you could spend hours exploring. We enjoyed a few drinks and had a great time checking out all of the quirky items. In Budapest, there are many ruin bars, but this one is definitely the best.

What a phenomenal experience. I must say that after visiting some of the most eclectic clubs and bars at Berlin, London or Ibiza, Szimpla Kert has something unique that none of these other places had. Its atmosphere is one of a kind, and if I was living in Budapest, I’d be surely spending time there often. Very glad to see that there are still places so beautiful as Szimpla Kert in the world.
