Budapest Cafe
4.1 (656)restaurant
A cozy Upper East Side spot serving home-style Hungarian classics and pastries in a warm, European-style setting.
Description



The space draws a neighborhood crowd of solo diners and pastry buyers. Tables feature plates of schnitzel and thin palacsinta crepes, which come filled with either savory ingredients or simple lemon-sugar. The bakery case displays traditional Dobos torte and rugelach, though visitors looking for caffeine might want to stick to regular coffee over the espresso. A licensed bar offers a selection of beers to accompany the meal, making this a relaxed, fairly priced stopover.
