Szimpla Kert

Get a taste of Budapest's famous eclectic ruin pubs at the city's number-one venue of this kind: Szimpla has become a flagship bar in the city, with two floors furnished with mismatched second-hand items and a disused Trabant car, serving not only as a watering hole of young internationals but also a hangout place with events, music and markets where you are welcome to bring your family as well.
