Angelika Kávéház

Castle District


Attached to an 18th-century church, Angelika is as much a restaurant as a cafe, with a raised outside terrace. The more substantial dishes (mains 2890Ft to 4990Ft) are just so-so; come here for the cakes and the views across the Danube to the Parliament building.
