Steamhouse Cafe — Restaurant in Budapest

A wonderful small and great coffee store, which is located in a old market hall. They take care about their coffee beans which they use and you will get some informations about them while you enjoy your delicious coffee.

DRINK AND FOOD They offer some different snacks and cakes as well. But the main focus is on the different coffee specialities. As usual I ordered a esspresso, which was a Doppio for 790 HUF. The taste of the espresso was perfect, creamy and very intensive. It was fruity and had a little bit of cocoa notes as well. I found it very interesting that you will get a little sheet of paper, which had some information about the coffee beans which they actually use. That is a very good idea.

SERVICE It is a partial self service. You had to order directly at the counter but they bring the drinks and dishes to your table. Nice and good concept because you can take a seat and wait. The waitress was nice and helpful as well and it was a pleasure for me to order the drinks.

CAFÉ AND LOCATION The cafe is located in a old market hall which is already renovated on the second level. There are some sitting places directly at the cafe but they have no onsite...

Enjoyed a quick breakfast here. It's a small coffee stand in a mall-type building, which was under construction so there was a fair bit of noise but that didn't bother us too much. Seating by the windows had a nice view of the parliment.

I had the fried eggs with salad and baguette and my partner had the sausage with salad and baguette. We both enjoyed ours immensely, salad was a nice fresh element and the bread was warm. We each tried the cold brew, we are used to drinking our iced coffee with milk and/or a little sweetener but it seems the local custom here is to drink it black so we did. We enjoyed it but I will say for cold brew it was a little on the weak side. Perhaps the blend they use is supposed to be mild.

Good service and good prices. I would return but in cooler seasons when it isn't quite so...

No 1 star because the coffee was absolutely delicious, hats off for the coffee skills of these guys... though both guys who were serving me were talking to me and other customers in an outrageously humiliating manner. It was a very negative customer experience, especially seeing that kind lady trying to find out a bit about coffee specialties and ended up asking for something she knew, as she got answered in a "this is too much to take in for you darling" style... Horrible it was. I hope these vibes never make it into...
