a not-so-hidden gem! adorable place that i went to a lot to study and escape my apartment. it's exactly what you want a cafe to be but it can get crowded at times so make sure to get there early. they also usually have good art and some little crafts which make it a nice place to get gifts for your jealous friends. food is good too!

Really cute cafe/library! The vibes are aesthetic and there are pastries and drinks. The barista was lovely, however I would not go there to work personally. Maybe a bit too distracting and aesthetic for focusing amd working. I ordered a chai latte, it came warm and nice! (To be honest ive had better)

Very cute and welcoming with seating options and a coffee shop. I was hoping to get a Hungarian lit book translated to English to immerse myself in the history and culture, but I found options were limited? Perhaps I wasn’t looking in the right spot. I also found it quite pricey. For all the books I looked at, marked prices were higher than the suggested retail price listed on the books.

During my one-week stay in Budapest I visited the cafe bookshop three times, staying longer each time, feeling at home here amongst books and trying many of the delicious savoury and sweet tarts, pies and bagels, as well as chai lattes: don’t miss the spicy turmeric latte! A very relaxing and friendly place to hang out. Thank you to the workers who look after the visitors so well

beautiful and cosy cafe/bookstore. i love this concept of buying a book and sitting down reading it while sipping a cup of coffee. i also love the vibe of independent bookstore like this, as it gives you a very warm and welcoming feeling that you cannot find in big bookstore. the coffee was also good and the staffs were friendly. i came early on a thursday morning and just 15 mins after i arrived, the store was filled with guests and tourists, but the noise was manageable.

I just love their coffee, and the pies are very delicious. But the book selection is a little bit old fashioned, so to say! I wish they were selling newer non fiction books, about psychology, philosophy and popular science. Great place anyways!

Cozy coffe shop. Excellent place to have an espresso and a fresh baked plumb pie. Wonderful coffee place to relax. Barista was pleasant, polite and spoke English. 100% reccomended!

To be honest I felt a little underwhelmed having seen reviews of this place, though it was busy so clearly popular so each to their own. We didn't have a drink as there wasn't anywhere to sit which is fair enough, it's quite cramped but they did have a good selection of books and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The "secret garden" they advertise looks frankly quite derelict but the front of the shop exterior is a great look 📚

Extremely overrated. I’m honestly disappointed because after reading the reviews I was convinced that it was gonna be a good coffee shop. The place looks cool and aesthetic but it’s not actually worth it. You can only read books if you buy them. Otherwise you cannot touch them. Staff were not particularly friendly. My matcha latte did not taste good, it didn’t have flavor and it was watery. 🥲 My friend had the chai latte and it was kinda bad. It tasted just like hot milk. The pie was good but nothing exceptional. Cute just for pictures and cozy. Overrated.
