This is maybe the best pizza place in the Buda side. It is more upscale than Pizzica and have more sitting places, but it has less authentic vibe. The name igen, means yes.

The mother of all ruin bars in Budapest. During the early 2000's a set of new places opened in the unused building of the inner city and they lighted the vibrant nightlife of the district. This was the first bar like that and it is still a classic. There are lots of tourists here as this place is also advertised heavily in tourist magazines.
