Taksony street 7.
It is relatively rare that an Australian café chooses the Hungarian capital as the location for its second branch. Yet this is indeed the case for Grumpy Monkey Budapest, on Taksony utca in the heart of District XIII. Just like in Brisbane, delicious Australian coffee, plus savoury and sweet pastries, are on offer.

Római Part (‘Roman Embankment’) is a place of pilgrimage for those who like to spend time by the Danube, eating fried fish with a cold beer in hand, sold from any number of outlets and eateries that line the riverfront. No-one one leaves Római hungry – although you might also collect a few mosquito bites. If you’re looking for something special, check Fellini: the place looks like a set from a Wes Anderson movie, where you can laze around in pastel deck chairs, entertained by occasional live music. The Római is also popular with cyclists, rowers, runners and dog walkers.

The building of Lehel market hall was built on the site of the former open marketplace which served District XIII. In addition to abundant fresh fruit and vegetables, you can buy herbs and one of the best lángos in Budapest, everyone's favourite fried-dough snack. You'll find small-batch producers selling everything from lemongrass to mint and honey in the lower mid-section of the hall. The upper storey is somewhat messier, stocking a wide variety of goods from pet food to household accessories-.

This is how banana bread, túróscsusza-süti (Hungarian sweet cottage cheese cake) and plum mousse made it on the menu at the store in Gyula Street, but the selection always depends on their mood and taste. The decorations on the sweets are always pretty, and they often shake up their treats with seasonal ingredients. They also make cakes to order.
