Mag Pub Budapest

by

Visitors to Budapest should make Mag Pub Budapest their first choice for a unique, laid-back and fun experience. This small pub in the heart of town blends local personality, a fun atmosphere, great drinks and friendly staff together beautifully.

If you’re a lone traveler looking for new friends, a couple on a mini vacation or an adventurous soul who digs finding hidden places, Mag Pub has that homelike feeling, no matter where you come from.

A Friendly Reception in the Middle of Budapest

Mag Pub is situated in downtown Budapest close to places such as the Parliament building, St. Stephen’s Basilica and the Danube River. It’s quite possible to come across it during a walk in the city, but after that, you’ll probably want to come back again.

The tiny entrance doesn’t reveal what’s inside which is warm lighting, wooden furniture, colorful decoration and a pleasant atmosphere that draws you in. The employees are warm, their spoken English is excellent and they readily recommend drinks or tell you about the city.

Famous Cocktails

Mag Pub is unique because of the wonderful variety of drinks it has to offer. If beer is your favorite, you are in for a special experience. Many Hungarian craft beers are always on tap at the pub, selecting from juicy IPAs, smoother lagers and dark ales. You could try out a new dish every week.

Not a big fan of beer? No worries. They have a fun and unique selection of cocktails which includes traditional choices as well as their own specials. Also, if you drink wine, Hungary is where the fun begins—and the place boasts a variety of fine reds, whites and sweet Tokaji wines, too.

Choose a lemonade or non-alcoholic mocktail to relax without the alcohol.

Food that is Genuinely Arab

Feeling hungry? You can rely on Mag Pub. Even though there are only a few things on the menu, everything is extremely tasty. Enjoy goulash soup (a traditional favorite) and lángos, a type of fried bread with a covering of sour cream and cheese. They also menu includes burgers, sandwiches, fries and vegetarian menu items.

Plates are satisfyingly large, the menu is not expensive and every dish is cooked fresh. You can enjoy a snack alongside your drink or sit down for a good meal and then head on to your night plans.

Live music and a positive atmosphere.

Anyone who enjoys live performances and community will enjoy Mag Pub evenings. Live bands and solo artists perform things like jazz, blues, acoustic rock and indie music at the pub several nights a week. The venue is not huge which gives the music a very personal and private touch.

There are also nights with pub quizzes, open mic events, board games and different theme parties. The place is always full of energy but never too much which makes it a terrific spot for either meeting new people or having a peaceful evening out.

A Good Place for Tourists

Mag Pub is especially known for how friendly it is to travelers. Because visitors come from all over, guests at the hostel often meet new people, swap travel tales or plan trips together. You can get internet access, charge your phone and choose where you’d like to sit—all helping you enjoy the cafe in any mood.

In addition, it welcomes visiting on your own which can be hard to discover. The servers are friendly and ready for quick chats and the place is always relaxed and stress-free.

Emphasizing eco-friendliness and supporting what is local

You can enjoy Mag Pub, but it also cares greatly about the environment. Eco-friendly straws are used, plastic is reduced and local breweries and suppliers are supported which helps lessen your effect on the environment. Being aware that your actions are helping the environment and its people is very rewarding.

It is easy to discover, but hard to forget.

Mag Pub is located right in the city center, close to many hotels, hostels and public transportation stops. This neighborhood is perfect for walking back to after all the sightseeing and it’s where you can unwind and taste what Budapest has to offer at night.

If you are only staying for a night or a week, Mag Pub is surely a pub to visit during your trip to Budapest. Because of the great drinks, tasty food, music and warm atmosphere, this spot is about more than a drink.

Tips for Travelers

How can you enjoy your trip to the max? Show up early in the evening so you can line up for a table in advance. Check their social networks or ask the staff for details about the next events, music nights or happy hours. Make sure you take an Instagram photo of your drink, the setting is too great to miss!

When you’re in Budapest, keep Mag Pub in mind for a drink. Cuisine is defined in some ways by the community, by the world and always by fun.
