Awesome vegan gastro pub with an alternative vibe

We felt right at home in this gastro pub.

It has a cool grunge vibe, friendly staff, good food, and great beer on tap and in bottles.

Their goulash is fairly priced and super tasty. We also tried the daily menu while they offered fried sausages and potatoes and that was also delicious.

We tried the pilsner, the wheat beer, and a grapefruit beer they had on tap. They were all very good.

Highly recommended 👌

Imádni való

Fantasztikus hely. Kis elrugaszkodás a modern elvárásoktól. Az ételek finomak, a kiszolgálás kedves.

Really not serious restaurant! would get 1 star.

This place is ridiculous. They seem to sell genetically modified oil,tofu,soy and rice since they refuse to say which oil they use.

it took 5 days to get answer where they still try to say they refuse to tell what oil they use for their food trying to cheat that they use different kind of oils everyday which no restaurant do.

And they refuse to tell even the brand on the soy and rice + tofu,corn so i can research myself which countries they come from.
After that again quietness and ignorantness.

They forgot they work in service business where people have questions about the food and seem to be too spoiled with getting customers.

There is other restaurants with veggie food who are not afraid of telling proudly what ingredients they use.

Pros: none not serious business at all.

Cons: refuse to tell which oil they use for food., refuse to tell which country , refuse to tell the brand even.

Simple and delicious

Friendly low-key pub/bistro with lots of interesting decor to peruse while you eat. We had bean goulash, carbonara and some nuggets to share and all was lovely! I especially enjoyed the bread and sour cream with the goulash, and would've happily ordered anything on the menu.

Best vegan food I had

Friendly and cool atmosphere with nice music.
There were vegan versions of traditional Hungarian dishes, so it was lovely to be able to try them.
I loved the goulash and the mushroom pancake.
It was truly the best vegan food I had ever had.

Cozy local place

This is a cute find - very local and cheap, with tasty food. I had the bean goulash which was perfect on a cold December night (and the homemade bread was fantastic). And two cute doggos snoozing by the entrance

Pros: Affordable, Comfort food

Yum yum

I agree with the person below me who said the cashew pasta was orgasmic! I couldn't pass it up after reading their review. My partner chose the beetroot party with potato salad. We both agreed that my pasta dish was better but both were yummy meals and probably the best savory meal we had in Budapest.

Alex writes a happy cow review while drunk

It was great, everything was good, it was the best thing we ate in Budapest. That cashew pasta was like an orgasm in my mouth and I want it again so bad. But also everything was like an orgasm in my mouth here, but also especially that pasta.
Was also pleasantly surprised that the pulled jackfruit burger wasn’t the same pulled jackfruit burger you get at every vegan joint. Ten outta five, this place is the bees knees. Enjoy the photos! I was sober when I took them, promise.

Pros: Cashew pasta , Goulash , Jackfruit boiga

Nice small bistro

Very nice small bistro.
Delicious food and BudaPrés cider. I had BBQ jackfruit, which was not much bbq. It was more like spicy paprika flavoured, but it was quite tasty. I liked their kind of burger buns.

Pros: Place, Taste

Restaurante e pub vegano

Tive um excelente jantar no Szabad. Pedi uma sopa tradicional hungara em sua versāo vegana, bean goulash. O prato estava bem caprichado e muito gostoso (foto).

Outros destaques foram o atendimento muito cordial e o ambiente agradável do pub/restaurante.

Pros: Totalmente vegano, Comida gostosa, Ambiente agradável

More a pub than a restaurant ....

I walked quite some time to get there and the young man at the bar informed me right away that this was a vegan only place probably because I'm a bit over 60 and a young man like that can't imagine that someone who could be his mother or perhaps even grandmother could possibly be vegan ... The food was OK, but nothing special. They have two dogs lying around on the furniture where you would perhaps sit afterwards. I don't like dogs in restaurants. OK if people come in with a small clean dog, but those dogs were the dogs of the restaurant owners ... The chef who I could see cooking through an opening towards the bar has very, very thick sort of rasta hair and not covered up. He's white, but his rasta hair is more impressing than that of a Jamaican guy (Grace Jones) ...

Sadyl no Vegan Food when we were there

Als wir gestern Abend hinkamen, gab es leider kein Essen, da die Küche geschlossen war. Schade- aber it happens! Der Service hat sich sehr dafür entschuldigt und war super super nett. Wir sind trotzdem auf Drinks geblieben, da uns der Laden super gefiel! Alternative & künstlerische Atmosphäre- danke fürs kreieren eines so tollen Platzes!
