Auguszt Cukrászda

Budapest


Not the original branch of this 'august' 1870 institution, but it is the most central and convenient one. Take a seat within the opulent interior and choose one (or more!) of the delectable cakes on display (690Ft to 1050Ft), and wash it down with a selection of loose-leaf or fresh herbal teas. Other branches at XI Sasadi út 190 and II Fény utca 8.
