Eni WSeptember 16, 2016Friendly staff and nice flat white.You might need to wait a bit for them at peak hours in the morning. Easy to reach from the Margaret island and totally worth a tour.
Julia MolnarJanuary 15, 2017Great coffee and selection of raw and vegan cakes and chocolates. Good place to work. Music is a bit spiritual, I would go with something more mainstream :)
The diverse list of bean offerings from around the world, La Marzocco GB5 (+ other high-end equipment), and the baristas' gustable attention to detail means you can count on a pretty great cuppa here.
Laura del PinoMay 15, 2017loved this coffee shop! we had a flat white and capuccino. great coffee and presentation but also very quiet, needed after a busy day in buda.
Alin ChindeaJuly 22, 2016awesome cafe, for both the busy bee and the one looking to chill. single origin coffees are amazing. very welcoming place.
Christos DevarisJanuary 23, 2017Cute cafe, good coffee, polite staff. You won't be disappointed by the quality of the coffee, the chocolate cookie was OK as well.
Italian based coffee culture with a hint of new-wave approach.La Marzocco, alternative brewing equipments and speciality teas. More recommended for general coffee customers. Books about meditation???
Ance KalejaMay 12, 2017Very friendly staff and tasty coffee. Indoors is good for work with a calming atosphere but move outside on a sunny day and enjoy the delicious cheesecake!
AdleyMarch 19, 2017Great coffee spot. Quite big and they are making it even bigger. Coffee delicious and also very yummy raw balls - try the one with matcha ;)
Tamás CserhalmiFebruary 26, 2017Polite and open-minded staff. Quality coffee. Friendly and clean environment. I will surely return here for more good coffee and more good karma. :)
Cees de QuaastenietNovember 15, 2015Coffee is great and affordable. Also the place looks nice inside, but it is oriented around a mediation kind of theme. The soft meditation music in the background wasn't completely our thing.
Vellu LuotoSeptember 21, 2016I had their vegan sandwich for breakfast together with their version of an Aeropress coffee. Can recommend both. Worth noting that they do not (or at least did not) have dark roast coffee.- ᴡ HohmeierOctober 16, 2014After trying a few coffee bars in Budapest this is one of the best. You can taste their dedication for coffee. Temperature just as right, milk smoothly steamed and the blend just amazing.
Edward TalbotDecember 23, 2014Great coffee, hippy vibes and some English books to read :) - Expensive but they say they pay their growers 4x as much so, if true, it's well worth it ✌️😃
We Love BudapestNovember 17, 2014Each hot choc has a clean, natural taste that's hard to even describe. The taste is so natural that these hot drinks are probably even healthy! And the presentation is, as you'd expect, beautiful.
Wassily KhonichevDecember 2, 2014Ok, so after 3 months in Budapest I can confidently say that this is simply the best place to have a coffee or a cup of tea in the whole city. God bless the staff and the people who run it.- We Love BudapestApril 21, 2015Every week, specialities arrive from English and Hungarian roasters, the selection changes monthly and there are three options to choose from: 1. Classic, 2. Special and 3. Filter. Read more
Great barista style coffee (from Square Mile). Nice, friendly and cosy place. Must try if you fancy a proper coffee near Nyugati. 7.5/10
- Réka ManonMarch 24, 2017Not easy resist the cakes, they look so healthy! But people come here mainly because of the coffee that is prepared really with soul-and-heart. <3 Come here after a morning yoga class at Mandala.
Endre NovakMarch 8, 2015Nice, modern clean and trendy. The barista claims there is no real difference between an espresso and a ristretto coffee. Uupss,- well, if you don't know it either, then you will like their coffee
Tanya VFebruary 16, 2015Perfect latte in a very calm and cosy ambience. Loved their veggie sweets. Whole grain croissant was really good- We Love BudapestMay 31, 2013Madal café's name from Sry Chimnoy, a spiritual master who also was a prolific poet, musician and athlete. Madal's coffee-brewing concept is a mixture of Italian traditions and new-wave methods.
Galina GolikovaAugust 16, 2017One of the best coffee shops in Budapest! They have cold-pressed juices and vegan sweets
OrSolya Szlahotka-GödriMay 13, 2016Really nice people working here, and make delicious coffee #decaff #lactosefree also available 👌🏼😍☕️
Grigory DorotynskiyMarch 16, 2018Coffee is perfect, barista and waiters are friendly and attentive, interior is very light and comfortable. Perfect place to meet with someone or to work.
Erwin K.March 19, 2017Great espresso bar and one of the best flat whites I've had in a really long time!
BankiTamas.hu #LinkedinByTamasJune 21, 2014The #Special is #NOT an extra coffee, but ONLY an extra shot, and the barista doesn't want to give it in an extra cup... And getting sugar was a favour. Good coffee SHITe service
Pal KerteszJuly 15, 2014Propably they serve the best espresso in Budapest. Really nice coffee and service. My espresso was made with Guatemalan, light roast coffee. Will come back!- Yeey very strange place with a super ZEN atmosphere. Although, La Marzocco•V60•Aeropress guest coffees like Drop, Stumptown, Handsome... Speciality Coffee that is the point!
One of the best cafe in town! They have loyalty card, collect your point, every tenth coffee for free :)
Ktot KakoytovJune 25, 2016Just. Great. Cappucino, chai latte. Vegan sandwiches. And beautiful people. Amazing place!
-=XaB=-August 20, 2015Nice atmosphere superb coffee quality! If you respect and love coffee it's a must try!!!
Shuang WuMay 24, 2016Lovely raw vegan treats to go with an aromatic latte (with rice milk). #veganoptions
The best specialty coffee chain in Budapest with an exceptionally peaceful vibe.
- Jack KalloJuly 9, 2014New wave coffee. One of my favourite cafes in Budapest. You must try their ESPRESSO!
- Muffin ManAugust 7, 2019WHY THERE: coffer, interior, desserts. STUFF: lovely. STAFF: decent. LOCATION: close to mainstream (convenient). PRICES: average (reasonable)
Alíz PálfiNovember 22, 2014Really cozy place with real baristas. Tasty hot chocolate, teas, cheescake, coffee :)
Their Chai latte is a must which also contains a shot of delicious espresso. Also good for working in early hours.- Eva KRNovember 20, 2014Perfect breakfast: tasty strong coffee & a delicious croissant. Such a zen environment and the barristas are very friendly.
Great service, nice coffees, some special ones also. Not the fastest place to grab a coffee, but worths the wait.
Agnes RepkaOctober 7, 2015Perfect drinks, friendly staff and even raw vegan sugar- and glutenfree sweets!!
- Gergo RadDecember 3, 2014Peaceful atmosphere, great specialty coffee. Ask for a Casino Mocca espresso by the best Hungarian roasters.
Stacey KuyfOctober 27, 2016Good ambiance, costs a little more to stay and drink but a nice place to work.
Alexa FermegliaFebruary 22, 2020Great coffee & tea, kind staff, quick service. Good vibe inside, also a great place to work.
Martyna WojnaAugust 19, 2016Good quality coffee. Staff is kinda shy if you speak English. Meditation music inside. Great flat white, brownie and cheesecake!
