Considered the central hub of the 1848 Revolution, Pilvax Café was where the city’s fervent artists and intellectuals regularly gathered to exchange opinions about life in Hungary. The historic site is filled with buzz again: after many changes, it regained its original function and reopened as a cafe-restaurant in 2022. Upon your visit, you will find yourself in a modern space, but will still feel a hint of the past. This is not a typical Hungarian restaurant with greasy meals, even though several classics can be found on the menu, they offer international favourites too. So stuffed cabbage, tartar beefsteak, goulash soup, Porcini mushroom cream soup, "Kárpáti" styled Pike perch fillet, chicken paprikash, Wiener schnitzel, shrimp curry, spaghetti carbonara, Caprese salad, tiramisu, and brownies go well together. And you might even meet the new owner of Pilvax, as he works at the restaurant almost every day.
