This lovely new cafe on the top floor of the one-time Batthyány tér covered market takes its coffee very seriously indeed, with blends from Colombia to Ethiopia. But we come here for the food too, with breakfast (890Ft to 2950Ft) available all day every day and the daily one-plate lunch a steal at just 1290Ft. Super views across the Danube are free.
