Japanese Garden

Garden
The Japanese Garden is a tranquil oasis located on Margaret Island, surrounded by the Danube. Established in the 1970s, it features lush greenery, meandering walkways, and a picturesque koi pond adorned with lotus blossoms. Visitors can experience a blend of Japanese and Hungarian cultures while strolling through this serene space. The garden also boasts a Musical Fountain that plays a medieval Hungarian tune composed specifically for it.
The Japanese Garden on Margaret Island is such a peaceful little spot. It’s not huge, but that’s part of the charm—it feels cozy and calm. The pond with the koi and lotus is super pretty, and the whole area is perfect for just wandering around or sitting and soaking up the peaceful vibe. Great place for a quiet break if you’re already exploring the island. Loved how chill it was.

Very nice garden not far from the city, well maintained, water fountain with music is quite entertaining, popular English songs are played, rose garden is beautiful, few good and drinks vendors, no admission fees, need few hours to cover the whole garden.
Nice little garden with great atmosphere. Worth a visit when you on walk on Margret Island. Additionally, there is a bus stop right next to the garden, making it quite accessible.
Nice scenic Japanese garden, ideal for relaxing after a busy day. Was quiet when visited as was in November. I would highly recommend a visit if In the area
Tucked away on Margaret Island, it’s like walking into a dream that whispers softly in cherry blossom tones. As a romantic, I found it less a destination and more a tender pause — a breath between city and sky. The koi pond reflects more than trees; it mirrors feelings we often keep folded inside. The little red bridge is the kind of place you’d want to kiss someone slow, like you have all the time in the world.
You won’t find grand declarations here — just subtle grace: the way bamboo leans, the way water flows over stone. It’s a place where love doesn’t need words, where silence speaks fluently. Bring someone you want to hold hands with and not say much. Or come alone, with a book of poems and a heart that still listens.
It’s not just beautiful — it’s beautifully quiet. And in that quiet, something timeless happens.
It's a beautiful walk until you reach the Japanese garden, a beautiful natural park, with many leafy trees, shaded areas, with great gaps for the sun to pass through, the sound of birds, people having picnics, or simply sunbathing, a very enjoyable experience.
It was a truly magical time, the lights and colours were enchanting, and the atmosphere felt like a gentle embrace, calm and soothing, a little haven for the soul.
The perfect little peaceful spot everyone wishes they had in their backyard, but few can afford. Luckily, this park is free, peaceful, and perfect all year round. I can’t really recommend it—after all, its charm lies in the solitude.

The Urban Transport Museum offers a fascinating journey through the history of public transportation in Hungarian cities. With over 60 renovated vehicles on display, visitors can explore the evolution of urban transport infrastructure. The museum features five open-air exhibition areas where guests can board and examine various modes of transportation. While descriptions are only available in Hungarian, it's a perfect destination for a short trip, especially for families with children who can enjoy interacting with the exhibits.
A surprisingly large museum on the history of public transport in Budapest. The museum is divided into 3 areas: In the first area, you can get important information about the development of public transport in Budapest from information panels and many photos, in both English and Hungarian. In the second area, you will find many original vehicles. The vehicles are in great condition, and you can even board some of them. In the outdoor area, there are more vehicles, some of which are not in the best condition due to weather conditions.
The museum is within walking distance of the Szentendre train station (about a 5-minute walk).
Please note: The museum only accepts cash (Forint)!

Very interesting place. It explains the history of public transportation in Hungary, mainly in the Budapest area. There are old vehicles in display. If you are interested in history, vehicles and engineering, it is definitely a place to visit.
Very large museum with a variety of trains. Display boards had all information translated to English too for any tourists. Very empty at the time of visiting with only 2 or 3 other groups of people present.
Along with the trains was a large amount of history of transport in Hungary and a collection of buses.
It is sad to see many of the trains rusting with failing paint but if the money is not there, the museum is not to blame.
An old wish of the experts of Budapest Transport Limited came true when, at the time of the modernisation of the Szentendre suburban railway line in 1991 - 92, a permanent exhibition could be opened in one of the reconstructed covered depots displaying the transport history of the capital and its neighbourhood.
The depot was built in 1914, during the electrification of the suburban railway line, but by the beginning of the 1990"s it became unsuitable for the storage and maintenance of trains with big passenger carrying capacity. The museum consisting of five exhibition rooms and two display halls opened on July 14, 1992.
The theme of the first room is the history of public transport in Budapest, presenting the legal predecessors of the company as well as the lines and vehicles operated by them.
In the second room the visitors can get information about the public transport of other cities (such as Debrecen, Miskolc, Szeged and Szombathely).
In the third room the technological relics of public transport infrastructure, track and catenary construction, maintenance and power supply are demonstrated.
The fourth room exhibits the tools of the original forge that was linked with the old covered depot in Szentendre.
The fifth room focuses on the history of bus and tram transport in Budapest. The visitors can find documents and photos, various tickets and vehicle spare parts here. In the hall and the yard of the museum tram and suburban railway cars, buses and trolley buses are standing.
It can be an exciting experience for the children that they can get on the exhibited vehicles.
For a short trip on Saturday it is perfect for children and for 1~ 1.5 hours to spend. Many vehicles are open and you can go to see the interior. Not all possibilities are exhausted, it ( the collection) could be greater. Surprise: the photo ticket is more expensive than the tickets for adults. Unfortunately descriptions only in Hungarian.
They told us to leave at 16.25, when we were viewing the last information rooms, even though they close at 17.00, which is clearly written on their website, and also at the entrance sign.
Despite limited resources this is a great collection, some truly rare gems - kids can enjoy getting on most vehicles and even ringing bells!
It's very interesting museum, ticket price is very low. Cards are not accepted. When you visit Szentendre this museum is kinda must :)

Museum
The Christmas Museum in Szentendre, Hungary is a delightful place that transports visitors back to the enchanting memories of childhood Christmases. The museum boasts a palatial kitsch atmosphere that exudes warmth and nostalgia. Visitors can find an extensive collection of old ornaments and Christmas decorations, many of which are available for purchase. The dedication of the sales staff to preserving the holiday spirit is evident throughout the week, making it feel like Christmas all year round.
Best place dedicated to Christmas, I have ever seen. Hands down!!
Konstantinos B — Google review
Every day is Christmas if you're brave enough, right? Lovely shop with everything you could think of. A really nice touch were old decorations displayed in a seperate room. Really rolls back the years.
When I entered at once I've been back to my childhood Xmas seasons! Wonderful to feel Xmas during summer, but I think here is Xmas whole year! Who likes the "palatial kitsch" it can be found, but I mean in good way! I loved that as I loved to be recognised those ornaments and Xmas decorations as we had at home. Amazingly place and really felt the salesman and saleswoman's dedication to holiday seasons as Xmas in weekdays as well. Thanks for these beautiful experiences.
Must visit. The whole szentenrdre is a beautiful city and now this has converted into the tourist city. In all the other beautiful and attractive shops This is the most beautiful Christmas shop I have ever seen. All the things are well managed.
Christmas museum with old decorations also worth to buy some very unique decorations. Cute! We also met Santa on the spot.
Really nice shop. It has in display a glimpse in how Christmas was celebrated in the 19th century
Amazing place. Dream land. Highly recommended ❤️
One of the most amazing Christmas collections I have ever seen.
We visited this museum during our last trip to Szentendre Hungary.
The town itself is quite mesmerizing. And on top of it we went to this museum. It depicts the history and old ornaments, collections for Christmas.
You can even buy the stuff you wish to and carry back.
Must visit if you are in Szentendre 👍👌

The Marzipan Museum, located in the charming town of Szentendre along the Danube River in Hungary, is a popular attraction for both locals and tourists. The museum showcases intricate marzipan figurines on its first floor, including sculptures depicting scenes from Disney films and famous buildings. Founded by Matyas Szamos, the museum offers insight into the world of confectionery and is a worthwhile visit while exploring Szentendre.
1 | Traditional confectionery with historical interior, which includes a marzipan museum.
2 | The menu includes ice cream and a wide selection of different cakes. The price of most of them is between 1100 Ft and 1300 Ft. For some reason, there is an extra charge of 100 Ft for eating at the table. I had a good Sachr with which whipped cream was served separately in a small bowl.
3 | It is possible to pay by card.
4 | There are around 10 tables in the patisserie, there is plenty of seating. The interior resembles a traditional patisserie.
5 | I found it a bit strange that the toilets on the first floor are paid and located behind the turnstile.

I was amazed by what can be done with marzipan. The artistry is incredible. I liked that it says who created each piece and how many hours were spent on it.
The price is 9,000 forints, and 30,000 with a guided tour – a fair price.
It's a shame there isn't a workshop for children.
Amazing little shop with a wide variety of Marzipan. This was the first time I had a marzipan and it was amazing. They have wide variety of pure marzipan with flavors and a lot with chocolates, but my favorites was the pure almond marzipan. Definitely a unique stop for me. Just wish I could order more online. Definitely a must go place if you stop in this cute little town.
Very nice marzipan museum. Ground floor is shop, first floor is museum - about 6 smaller rooms full of sweet sculptures. We like it.
It’s definitively worth a visit but it should be called a gallery rather than a museum. There are some impressive pieces of art but I would have liked to know more about how the marzipan is made and how the sculptures are made.
Beautiful restaurant ambience and collection of cakes was mind blowing. Staff was very friendly and speaks English. Other items too looked delicious over the counter, need more visits to try all of them. Hot chocolate was yum!
Due to time and other plans couldn’t visit the museum. But had one of the best cakes ever. This is must visit shop and try some cakes , hot chocolate and infused teas when you visit Szentendre. To get access to toilets speak to the member of staff as you would need coupons.
Very friendly staff... Nice,cosy and delicious cakes and drinks. Ice coffee and house lemonade 😋
Amazed at what can be done with marzipan. Very reasonable entrance fee

I came here around 11:00am during weekdays, but I found there is nearly no crowd here, don’t know whether it is because is weekdays or too early or just Feb like this.
Good idea but not as long as much as it seems like on photos, but the Danube can be seen a bit in the end of the street. Also some umbrella just loosing colour or shape. Free to see.
Very beautiful town.
There are a lot of restaurants, romantic small streets, churches.
Beautiful town with lots of shops and cafes! Our favorite purchase was our puzzle boxes made right there at the shop.
Very famous part of Szentendre, the colors in "umbrella's street" is a post card on the Centrum of the City and a good place for making photos and videos in Szentendre.
I'm happy that I visited this small town. So colorful, full of small details that you want to examine.
Recommended to visit!
It's a better place to visit, especially during summer holidays.

Step into the past at the Retro Design Center in Szentendre, where a fascinating collection of items from the 1970s awaits. From beautifully restored cars to kitchenware, electrical appliances, furniture, and toys, there's something to captivate everyone's interest. The center offers a nostalgic journey through Hungary's socialist era with rare cars as its main attraction. Visitors are treated to a diverse array of retro items that were once part of everyday life in Eastern Europe.
Excellent idea! It brings you right back to the past with memories and emotion. I'm really amazed how the industries in Hungary and eastern Europe countries influence to so many other parts in the world. You can see again so many items that attached to your life in not so long a go, from a little toy, soap bar to a television, fridge and car. It's totally delightful to visit this center. It's fun, it's interesting, and it's memorable.
Cam O — Google review
The museum feels like a time capsule – bringing together the most iconic symbols of the past. From classic cars and motorcycles with sidecars to posters, everyday items, and life-like street scenes, everything is arranged with great attention to detail. Walking through the exhibition, you’re transported to a time when life seemed simpler, yet more authentic.
I especially loved how each section of the museum tells its own story – not just through the vehicles, but also through the nostalgic decor and everyday objects. It's the perfect place for anyone who appreciates retro vibes, history, and great photo opportunities.
If you love vintage charm, this place will definitely steal your heart!
Blast from the past! 😎 Awesome collection of your not so avarage life of the past iron curtain times. A must see when you are in 🇭🇺. Don't miss the car collection outside and the basement of the museum.....After don't forget to see the surrounding area. Magical city of Szentendre.
Hidden Gem – Retro Design Center!
Retro Design Center is a fantastic place for anyone who appreciates vintage and retro items. The collection of furniture, home decor, and design pieces is truly impressive, showcasing a perfect mix of classic styles and timeless elegance.
The atmosphere inside the center is nostalgic yet modern, with each piece carefully curated to evoke the charm of past decades. Whether you're a design enthusiast or just looking for something unique for your home, this place offers a delightful experience.
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, making the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves great design and the beauty of vintage aesthetics!
A really interesting small museum that hosts so many awesome things!
The lady at the front desk is super friendly and nice, the tickets are not expensive and they even let us take our dogs into the open area with us.
An awesome place to visit alone or with a group!
Very nice place, real retro stuff including cars, a bus! and motorcycles. inside you will find a real gem, everything that you can think of from the 70's and 80's. a must visit place when you are around.
I’ve cycled past this so many times and not visited, finally did - what a great museum! It’s full of retro items from Hungary and the former east, really well set up. You walk through the house with each room filled with items, then there are lots of vehicles outside - many that you can sit in. Well worth visiting if you are in the area.
Loads of retro stuff, not well organised. Only a few items on display have explanation attached. Good for hungarian boomers who can recall fond memories by seeing old items from their childhood or younger age. The place looks more like a flea market than a museum.

A cute and small Japanese garden outside of the busy center. Perfect if you’d like to relax a bit
Unexpected, but very beautiful park that provided us some well-needed shade and a break from the sun.
very pretty and calming place, it is a cute little garden with lots of plants and benches to relax. definitely worth a visit if you are in Szentendre!
Beautiful garden at the edge of Szentendre just north along the Danube. Quite small but immaculately tended by volunteers. Small pagoda with a pond. Well work the few minutes walk from the village centre.
Awesome little Japanese garden with little lake in it.
Nice bamboos and space to relax and unwind for a break.
They are occupying a large part of the once beautiful city park.
It is deeply saddening.
The park was small and cozy. It had a small pond that was very beautiful.

Whenever you are in Szentendre highly recommended to visit this lovely restaurant. The foods are very delicious and looks great, the staffs are very friendly and kind. We have been already here twice and had a great dinner 🥰🤩
We spontaneously stopped here for lunch on a day trip to Szentendre. We ordered the chicken with sun dried tomatoes and rice, as well as the egg curds with cheese, both meals quite tasty but I thought the curds (egg noodles) were the better option overall. It’s cheesy and the curds are soft and fluffy. The chicken in my opinion was just okay. If I had to pick between the two it would be the cheese curds, plus it’s the more authentic option (if you’re a foreigner and want to get that sort of more immersive experience in Hungary, I highly recommend it).
Great meal and even better service. Great spot for some home style food. Soups hearty, main courses hot and fresh. Thanks to all
The food was excellent! Nice service, great sitting outside.
Nice cafe in the old town. The staff is friendly. Decently priced. We just had drinks here but they were good.
Passed by this restaurant when visiting a small town in suburb Budapest, it’s not too crowded, has great ambience and chill music. Roasted pork chuck and grilled chicken are delicious, chicken is juicy. Only thing is the roasted potato is over-cooked and a bit salty, everything else is just on point. Drinks like latte macchiato or cappuccino isn’t the best but satisfying enough. Staff are friendly and nice, service time is quick.
It was ok! A bit pricey, a bit slow, and the taste was a bit average.. Auto 15% service fee on top.

you won't find often the Quality of their freshly prepared dishes .
the soup is served on preheated plate and filled into it right on delivery at the table .
i'm still flying high on this exeptional experience .
A lovely authentic place with a relaxed atmosphere. Attentive service. Foods great. Had house wine for only 900 forints!! Very good wine.
Prices are very good for food too. Worth a visit while in szentendre. I reserved a place for 14:00, but when I got there, there had been no need ..so try your luck.
Very cozy place with tasty food and good atmosphere. We got goulash and it was simply fantastic. Staff are very friendly as well.If you like puppies you might be greeted by Turbo the main guy in charge here 🐶 Overall I highly recommend this place to anyone.
The food here was very very tasty, we had the goulash soup, frittates and pork cut (sadly 13:30 was too early for the stuffed cabbage but I bet it would've also been really good)
Amazing place, deserves more recommendations, goulash was so full of flavor!
Nice restaurant in a cute small (though touristy) city. I got tasting menu II which was amazing and featured goose liver, a berry fruit soup, salmon, pork tenderloin and this cheese dumpling with fruit sauce.
Every dish was amazing - key highlights were the goose liver "burger" and both fruit courses (refreshing and summery).
The quality and quantity of the food was tops. Portions were big for a "tasting menu" so come hungry!
This is a place I'll come back to again.
If you ever visit this beautifull city north of Budapest, I highly recommend to stop here and enjoy a really good meal. It is small with only 6 /7 tables inside. I had a cold tomato soup with pickles with cheese whch was superb. My wife had fried squid, which is difficult to find well done, but they were fresh and soft. I recommend the pork as I never had such succulent and crisp pork with a salty sauerkraut and mashed potato with gravy. My wife had an delicious duckbreast and as desert we took strawberry tiramisú which was creamy but not clear why they name It strawberry tiramisú as there were no strawberries but raspberries. With drinks and coffee we spent only €72. Presentation of the food was excellent as well.
Roasted bone marrow ,Goulash soup and Chicken broth..
Absolutely delicious...

Fantázia Étterem Pizzéria offers satisfying food with generous portions and pleasant flavors. The pork dishes are well-prepared, while the burgers, except for the bread, are also enjoyable. However, their homemade lemonade falls short with a flat taste and lack of freshness in the lemons. Unfortunately, the service at this restaurant leaves much to be desired.
One of the best meals we had in Hungary. Szabi was fantastic, very warm, friendly, suggested the best dishes on the menu. We loved our experience at this restaurant by the river. If we could we will visit this place again.

A well located restaurant across a quiet road on the western riverside bank of the Danube river western branch, in Szentendre.
Excellent venue for a lazy weekend morning or afternoon brunch or lunch, for good meals and drinks.🍕 🍺.
To the management and staff, Thank you kindly for the relaxing meal I had, which was well prepated and presented, even though it was only a rather tasty, Pizza I enjoyed.
The restaurant had a quiet vibe about, which added greatly to enjoying a relaxed Sunday afternoon brunch.
Well Done to all @ Fantázia Étterem Pizzeria!!
It was well worth stopping by for a meal and a drink. I'll will certainly be visiting again, when in Szentendre
The lángos was nice however the garlic soup was a bit too salty, yet nice. However the service was not the good, I did not receive the menu but I looked at the wall, also there was only three ppl (us) still I had to go order and had to go pay. It was pricey, and not even sure I paid over or not.
Everything was good. Nothing was outstanding but we were happy. The price point was reasonable and the service was polite. The views of the river made the patio a lovely place to hang
I had harcsapaprikás with sztrapacska. The waiters were very polite and we got the menu then our orders quickly. The portion was large and the food tasted great.
I took my foreign friend here.
The view is nice if you sit outside.
Soup was delicious. My irish friend really liked the chicken soup.
The wiener schnitzel was such a big portion we could hardly finish. We didn't have space in our tummy to order dessert. 😋
Good experience!
This was my second visit here.
Avoid this place if you can. 10 minutes before closing time the extremely sassy and rude waiter came to our table, removed everything even the cushions from under us.
Beside this the food and the service was terrible. After 30 minutes of waiting for our drinks we had to ask the staff where are they and it turned out they have forgot our order.
Don’t recommend given there are only better places right next to it.
The atmosphere 2 stars is only given due to the Danube being close.
To include 12% service fee after this in the bill is outrageous.
The service was friendly but on that day the salt went missing. All 3 dishes (pizza, spaghetti ‘carbonara’ and bean soup) were missing the salt. I am not a salty eater but even the pasta itself was not salted.
Prices are fairly high but I guess that’s due to the location.
Once you go inside you smell tha fat everything is fried in…

El Mariachi restaurant offers excellent food at reasonable prices. The waiting staff is highly professional, displaying politeness, composure, efficiency, and patience towards all guests. Moreover, the cozy garden ensures a pleasant dining experience even on scorching summer days. However, the interior area of the restaurant falls short with its dim lighting and narrow space; it is advisable to opt for outdoor seating instead. Despite this drawback, the food itself is delicious with tender meat and flavorful sauces.
Really tasty food! The meat was really tender, the sauce tasty and the service staff are friendly. The place is nice and calm. There's a slightly faded sign outside the restaurant but it is worth it,to take thosr steps down to it! The only negatives was the drinks. I'd choose a bottled drink next time.

Food is always great here, prices are reasonable. Waiting is the best ever, the waiter guys are so professional. They are polite, calm, fast and patient with all the guests. The garden is cosy, they do everything possible to make sure you enjoy your meal even in the hottest day of summer.
I would love to give 5 stars but the inner area sucks. It is dark and narrow, better to stay outside.
If you are planning to eat here then you should try the:
Sirloin steak stuffed mushrooms and smoked cheese with purple onion jam, steak potato
I promise that you won't regret it.
Quaint little Hungarian restaurant. Good food and friendly staff. I would recommend if you are visiting Szentendre.
Awesome place, delicious meals and even we could bring our doggo with us, she got a bowl of fresh water, so they are attentive as well.
Family favourite restaurant in Szentendre for 20 years already. Super kind waiter, great food, great menu and prices.
This is an awesome place with great food, fast service and nice staff. The prices are good as well, I definitely recommend it.
Been there a year ago. Was much better. Something changed, by food quality level.

Center of town
For day 2, we recommend exploring the center side of town. Start the day off with Szentendre Skanzen Village Museum, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Mjam. All together, your day would be filled with about 7 hours of non-stop fun.

Szentendre Skanzen Village Museum is an open-air museum that offers a glimpse into the traditional village and farming life of 18th to 20th-century Hungary. Located in Szentendre, a charming town on the Danube riverbank just north of Budapest, this museum showcases various Hungarian regions' ways of life, including their dwellings and agricultural practices. The picturesque town itself boasts baroque architecture, colorful houses, cobblestone streets, and delightful confectioneries.
I recommend to buy ticket in advance to avoid long queue. I visited this place for the Easter and it was such a good experience. There were many events and I think otherwise it is very nice place to spend time with your family for a picnic.
Be careful that there is only one restaurant and a bakery so waiting time could be longer. I would recommend to get a food and water along with you.

Unbelievably cool place, great historical vibes, super interesting! Strongly recommend to all who are into the rural European history, looking for a source of inspiration or just want to enjoy kinda time-traveling walk. A lot of entertainment for the children, fantastic tasty pastry, comfortable walking routes, many fruit trees — yes, you can even eat some berries, depends on the season of course. I'm absolutely happy about that visit!
Very nice place close to Budapest (half an hour drive) yet very tranquil and representing an old village of Hungary, where one can learn more about the old ways of living and cultural aspects of the Hungarians. If you don't have the whole day to spend at the site, it's recommended to take a bike from the reception area after getting in, as walking route is quite long.
Went to Szentendre with the intent of visiting this heritage museum. It is a terrific place with many buildings which were in danger of being demolished or simply disappearing. They were carefully taken apart and reassembled here. They were careful to retain the rustic nature of the buildings. Sometimes not everything is accessible due to the popularity of the space as a venue for filming movies and TV shows. Plenty of places to sit and have a picnic. Also several eating and drinking venues. Only snag I found was that on a Saturday afternoon there was no public transport back to Szentendre and I had to walk about 3 kilometres. Great place for a day out.
Fantastic place. We were here twice, because it is big and one day is not enough.
Many guides from skanzen talking about history and other things.
Recomend for 100%
Great visit on the national holiday! The village museum was wonderful and so was the bread festival held the same day!
Fantastic look at rural Hungary in the past. We got a lesson on making Guylash, and then ate some-auper delicious! Laci was a great host!
It's a beautiful place, with many things to see. You can easily spend an entire day here. Bike rentals may be a good option for those who don't like walking all day.
History lovers will love this place, it has so many fascinating stories and accurate recreations of the past.
You can find free to use toilets throughout the area frequently as well, which is a bonus.

The grounds are beautifully maintained, adorned with art and shaded by majestic trees, creating a peaceful retreat. Nearby, you'll find charming shops and picturesque walking paths that lead you to the quaint village of Szendendre.
Really lovely campground. Great stop for Danube bicycle travelers. Safe, clean, beautiful grounds. Lovely staff. Walk the mile into town for dinner at Aranysárkány: it’s worth it! Thank you
Stephen R — Google review
We had a great experience here for two nights. Great location, used the washing machine (but no dryer), snacks on site and great kebab shop just next to the campground. Bike path into town was lovely too!
A nice camp but barely no rules, or at least no one here from the camping staff to take action when people act like animals at night and do not respect others, howling, yelling and other stuff.
If you want peace and quiet in the middle of the nature this is NOT the place to be, it is only luck if you do not encounter some animal acting humans, cause the camp does not impose any rules about quiet hours...
Really nice place to stay here for holiday. The personell speaks German and English. They helped us a lot to solve the problem with our broken car even though it was public holiday in Hungary. I can really recommend this camp.
Don’t use the ATM near the reception. It will charge you a 10% higher exchange rate. Although the campsite doesn't operates this ATM, they should warn us for the higher rate.
This camping was a great stay. Very nice bungalow directly on the riverside. Great service from Maria and Kamilla. If you come to Hungaria, stay at Pap-sziget Camping.
We went here with our youth movement. Everyone had a great time. The people here are always ready to help.
Great campground with all the facilities you need! Beautiful pool and very friendly hosts.

The Micro Wonder Museum is a unique and fascinating exhibition featuring 15 pieces of miniature artwork that are so small they can only be seen through a microscope. The artist spends about six months creating each piece using a special technique. Some of the incredible artworks include a Camelcade made from gold in the eye of a needle and a Map of Australia inserted into half of a poppy seed. The museum recently moved from Szentendre to Budapest, offering visitors an unforgettable experience for just 3 euros.
Absolutely incredible, in fact one of the best things I saw in Budapest.

Great museum and absolutely recommended. 30 mins are enough to wonder these unique pieces of art. We had fun and ready to return at another time.
If you don't see it, you won't believe it. The artist Mykola Syadristy really gave a world something unique and our guide for the day, Bimpi, made our visit even more enjoyable. Thank you Bimpi and thank you Mykola for this wonderful experience.
Most amazing pieces of art done in the eye of a needle, poppy seed halves or on top of a hairline, visible only through a microscope. A definite must-see in a small but interesting little town.
A very important exhibition, it showcases what someone with infinete patience and dedication is capable of. A must see if you are in Budapest, truly a unique experience.
Please note: The museum moved from Szentendre to Budapest.
Very interesting and unique but short
Very interesting place. Amazing things placed inside a human hair. Picture on a rice grain looks gigantic in comparison with other exhibits

We had a very nice time here, the owner is friendly and welcoming. As many reviews highlighted, the food is nothing special. Not bad, but not superb either. The lamb soup was nice and the surroundings, the atmosphere sells the place. I wish all the best for the owner, if decide to eat here, I think you won't regret it, but I'm sure you can find better food somewhere around. All in all recommended.
Very warm, cosy place. Food is delicious, staff if very kind.
This place is full of peace. We’re here when it was cold outside. March. Rainy day. But place is very nice.
Such a lovely lunch! Food was excellent, the owners were very accommodating! Ask to see the wine cellar!
Stopped in for a cocktail by the Danube. Beautiful courtyard. Lovely music. Excellent service. A wonderful experience.
Called in for a quick lunch before going back to Budapest. Didn't check reviews and glad we didn't. This place is worth more than 3.8 stars.
Yes it was quiet and language barrier difficult (our fault not theirs)
But what a delightful location.
Overlooking the Danube and set on shaded stepped patios... perfect.
Amazing value too. Lovely freshly home cooked meals. I had the perch and it was amazing. Partner had a simple pasta and tomato basil sauce.
Dessert was yummy too... A chocolate souffle with ice cream and Chantilly cream.
All washed down with a couple of draught beers for me and rose wine for my wife.
Edith, the owner was lovely and showed us around the building and explained it's history and her own life in and around the area. She was very friendly and helpful too.
Great food, reasonable prices and fantastic location.
A little gem of a find!
We found the environment is pretty nice, we loved the athmosphere. Why the 3 stars? The food is average here, nothing special, not bad and not good. For this value it is expensive. The service also only average, must wait wait wait. What we hate is to fight all the time during lunch against the wasps! It was very annoying! At the end we dindt ask for sweets or coffee, we just wanted to leave. I dont know how other restaurants do with the wasp but this was the first place that they attack us in large groups.
We waited 40 minutes for our food but only got the lemonades. When we went to pay for the lemonades only so we could leave as we didn’t want to wait any more, we were asked why we didn’t remind the waitress (we did, and it shouldn’t be us doing that anyway). Lovely spot but ridiculous wait time.

The best meal in Hungary so far! Everything on the menu sounded delicious. We settled on the slow-smoked beef potato pancakes (great choice). The staff were super-friendly, even giving us a tour after our meal.
Heaven for beer lovers. You can find Hungarian craft beers and also belgion beers in this place. Their food menu is not rich as their beer menu but you may enjoy with pulled beef burgers and ribs...
Extremely nice and cozy place (with teddy bears, obviously, but it's not what makes it cozy), 3 taps and over 100 Hungarian and Belgian bottled beers. Menu is short but very enticing, both slow-cooked cold and pulled-pork pancake were delicious. Welcoming and knowledgeble staff. Proper glassware for various styles and brands!
Very nice and cozy. Theo Irish beer is top notch!
The food was excellent, they have huge variety of craftbeers!I'll try to go back asap and try another couple of beers. :)
Super friendly staff. Good advices on the beer choice. Delicious burgers. Love the interior of the bar. Small outdoor, really nice to chill in.
Very small bar/restaurant with good food and a wide selection of beers. Nice that the person serving us knew his beers and gave good recommendations.
I had the BBQ burger that I was not entirely convinced about but my friend enjoyed their food very much.

Very lovely food. The chicken was soft and juicy. The burger is also a must-try. Nothing you can have anywhere else. Also very nice staff and chill vibe! Would love to go back!
Nice staff and really great quality food. I'm no expert of caribbean food, for me it was like asian food without burning my tongue.
The orange suck was incredibly smooth, the tastes were in balance.
Nice court off the main square. Great food! A lot of vegetarian and vegan options.
Superb vegan and vegetarian options, super nice location.
Absolutely delicious! Great service, fresh amazing food!

Teyföl RESTAURANT, located near the main square, offers a delightful dining experience with its modern take on traditional Hungarian dishes. The menu features classics like palocleves and paprikas, each with a unique twist. While not budget-friendly, the extraordinary food and attentive service make it one of the best places in the country. Dishes like liver pate with potato doughnut and crispy pork belly are highly recommended, paired perfectly with quality wines.
Best restaurant in Hungary. The atmosphere is welcoming and the food is tasty. Ingredients are sourced locally and the food presentation is always top and staff is nice. The fig syrup is really nice.

Teyföl in Szentendre is a true culinary experience! We visited with our kids and were amazed by the attention to detail – in both the food and the service.
We tried several mains and starters – everything was flavorful, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. The coffee was a real treat – served in a stylish and unique way that made the moment feel extra special.
The interior is bright, modern, and cozy with subtle touches of charm. The staff was incredibly kind and especially attentive to our children. We had a wonderful time and would love to return again!
I received exceptionally kind service at this restaurant. Not only that, but the food and dessert gave me great comfort as a traveler.
The chicken paprika I had here was so delicious that it made me forget every other chicken dish I’ve tried elsewhere.
I could truly feel the care and dedication put into the food. It left such a deep impression on me that I believe I could return to Szentendre just to visit this restaurant again.
I experienced an exceptional culinary moment at Teyföl ! The culinary staff (chef, waiters) rendered this moment unforgettable, thank you !
Being born in Hungary myself, I particularly appreciated traditional dishes elegantly revamped.
The dishes were more than delicious! The aromas and spices were nicely balanced that added a slight complexity in terms of taste to the original dishes. All of the ingredients used and the beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) were local and made the perfect match with the dishes with the assistance of our kind waitress!
The presentation of the dishes was definitely a delight for the eyes (colors and organisation of different ingredients) which definitely enhanced this experience.
In sum, I will definitely come back next during my next visit to Szentendre :)
We visited Teyföl in Szentendre last night with my wife and our daughter, and it turned into one of those rare dining experiences you want to relive again and again. The walk through the town’s cobbled streets already set the scene, and the restaurant itself continued the magic: stylish yet unpretentious, fairly spacious, softly lit, and perfectly tuned with gentle background music. The staff deserve special praise - genuinely warm, attentive, and professional, making us feel immediately at ease as a family. The menu is short but inspired: Hungarian classics given a modern, elegant touch. Every dish we tried was memorable, and the drinks from local producers paired beautifully. Teyföl is a true gem on Hungary’s culinary map. We left feeling delighted and grateful, definately will revisit. Absolutely recommended for anyone who values not just great food, but a complete dining experience.
We found a table last minute, which we were very happy about. Many Hungarian dishes are reinvented and presented in a modern and beautiful way, very good! Highly recommend it to anyone in Budapest looking for a little day trip, about 30 minutes from the city.
Really enjoyed our first visit to Teyföl in Szentendre. Traditional Hungarian dishes with a modern twist and great presentation. The trout was fantastic! We'll be back for sure!
I am visiting from US and my dentist in Budapest recommended this restaurant in Szentendre. The food was excellent with great presentation and service was exceptional! Very friendly staff and I really enjoyed dining at Teyfol restaurant. I highly recommend!

Lovely riverfront cafe where we had a bite to eat on our day trip.
We had a very nice Gambas pilpil with lots of meaty prawns and an accompanying sauce and the camembert salad which was a good sized portion of cheese with lots of seeds etc in the salad for texture.
Pina coladas were the best we've had in Hungary so far!
We had a lovely lunch here on our trip to Szentendre. The restaurant itself is in a perfect location, and we were thrilled to get a table on their outdoor terrace. Sitting outside was so pleasant—it’s a really nice, relaxed setting to enjoy a meal and watch the world go by.
The food was definitely the highlight. We tried a traditional Hungarian dish and it was delicious, very flavourful and clearly made with care. The portion size was generous and we felt the prices were very reasonable for the quality and the location.
The only area for improvement would be with the service. The staff weren't rude by any means, but they were a little brusque and could have been a bit more welcoming and attentive. A warmer attitude would have made the experience perfect.
Overall, we had a very nice time and would recommend it for the tasty food and beautiful outdoor seating. We'd happily come back on our next visit to Szentendre!
Cold fruit soap superb. Duck breast with creamy cucumber salad to die for. Cool shady pato by Danube river makes this a special place.
I recommend visiting here. Very friendly staff, delicious food. I personally loved the fruit soup and salad with camembert cheese.
Perfect restaurant with exceptional service. The food was delicious, service really pleasant. Highly recommended 👌
Edit: we went there one more time, again, everything was so good and we enjoyed our evening. Thank you so much for the service and food, you were amazing!
Im writing this not just as a customer but a hospitality professional with 50years experience. Christine Cafe has provided us with a great lunch (the best lunch in two months, according to my wife). Beyond the excellence of the meals, just the sheer professionalism of the waiting staff is very, very impressive. The waiters DEFINE what professional waiting staff should be. Thank you for a great experience.
We were eating breakfasts and lunches quite a long time here, but never get to review this place somehow. We have a yearly event when we bike up to Pap-rét on Friday after work, and on Saturday morning, going down straight to Christine for a great breakfast. The coffee is perfect, the scrambled eggs are perfect, and the homemade bakery products are off the charts. If you visit Szentendre - no matter for a breakfast, a lunch, or a dinner - stop by, and take a seat at Café Christine!

Wonderful place fantastic service and local dishes very good.
Just a note Hungarian dumping nothing like english. Light and airy and in small bits.
Have the steak and mushroom and elderflower lemonade, both were great! Waitress was very nice! And service was typical of Europe, quite quick compared to other places I’ve gone around here. Music playing at the restaurant next door is a nice touch, great view of the square.
The food that we ordered here was simple but very well done. There were no vegetarian mains, so we had starters, a salad and sides, however the starters were quite substantial. The deep-fried mushrooms and cheese were light and not at all greasy. The Greek salad was fresh with a tasty dressing. The Somloi Galuska wasn't 100% authentic (there was only plain sponge and no raisins) but it was tasty and there was lots of the chocolate-rum sauce. The staff were very friendly. There's seating outdoors on the square and in a courtyard as well as indoor seating
Location is great with traditional menu. Sadly, that's the best I can say about.
The food itself was average and the goulash very watery.
Service is dismissive, orders wrong and to top it all there was hair in the chilli dip.
Given they tell you up front there is a 13% service charge included in the meal suggest they know you are in for a poor experience.
Avoid - much better places to go nearby.
food is good, coffee is good, staff is very nice.
even that u are not coming for coffee and borrowing toilet, as long as u are with smile on your face requesting for toilet, the beautiful staff will direct you to toilet for sure.
Its just a tourist trap, not more. Waiters are rude, they cant even remember what we ordered, the food was below average. Lemonade was the worst I'be ever drank.
Wouldn't recomnend.
the food was so good. the best i ate in life. good prices. very nice service

The menu is a delightful blend of traditional Greek dishes like souvlaki, gyros, moussaka, and homemade baklava alongside Hungarian specialties.
Beautiful setting by the Danube. Delicious calamari, chicken souvlaki and extremely generous portions. Dessert of cheesecake and apple pie and ice cream were totally worth the extra calories!! Server was patient and very efficient. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Short stay In Szentendre and dined at this restaurant on two occasions.
Absolutely outstanding in every way , friendly and welcoming service, food plentiful and beautifully presented and so tasty . The owner gave me a beer on the house how kind is that.
Finally the location is right on the Danube it would be silly to walk passed 10/10
Pleasantly surprised because it seems like a tourist trap along the river. However, it has a cool breeze and the food was delicious! I had souvlaki and it didn’t disappoint!
Absolutely beautiful service and food from Görög Kancsó Étterem! Frank took care of us from the moment we got there. I got the Kofte, the others got falafel and everyone was impressed.
Can’t forget to mention the view! Absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely delicious dishes, generous portions, polite and attentive service, great view of the promenade and Danube.
No aircon though, and the outdoors ventilation isn't very powerful. Smoking and non-smoking areas aren't exactly separated.
Lovely setting near the river and friendly service. Only dropped down one star as I ordered a salad without cucumber which they wouldn't make - the one they used it premade.
Great that they've a few alcohol free drink options too.
Portions are very generous - you won't be hungry!
Staff spoke English which was really helpful!
It was a great place. It is possible to ask the food immediately for takeaway. They box it nicely and there is a 10% discount when you ask the food to takeaway.
We had gyros plate and falafel plate both were good portions, good size. Place is recommended. No vegan option at all, vegetarians will find good options.
I ate chicken gyros plate!
Well, I think quality was good enough, service was fast and smooth.
A bit overpriced but tasty.
We had a table on the street near the river Danube and that was fancy with good atmosphere!
But inside the restaurant is very old and tiny.
STRONG 3 STAR! Should try!

A small museum dedicated to a single artist/craftsman. The 1700 HUF entry ticket bought at other museums will give you free access here also.
The artist featured here is Tamas Melkovics, his works being modern experimental sculptural forms.
For me I preffered the two other museums I visited today, viz. Kmetty Janos (Paintings) and Margit Kovacs ceramics, but this was on the way back to the station so worth dropping in for 10/15 minutes. They provide free lockers for any bags you have which is useful.
The Ferenczy Museum, situated in Szentendre, Hungary, stands as a significant institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the artistic heritage of the region. Named after the Ferenczy family, known for their pivotal contributions to Hungarian art, the museum plays a central role in commemorating their legacy.
The museum complex comprises a variety of exhibitions and collections, displaying artworks by the Ferenczy family members—Károly, Noémi, and Béni—alongside numerous other influential Hungarian artists. These collections include paintings, sculptures, and other visual arts that highlight the evolution of Hungarian art from the late 19th century to the present day.
This cultural institution serves as a focal point for understanding the development and impact of the Ferenczy family and other prominent artists associated with Szentendre. Moreover, it offers a space for scholarly research, educational programs, and engaging exhibitions, allowing visitors to delve into the rich artistic heritage of the region.
Through its efforts to curate and preserve an extensive collection of Hungarian art, the Ferenczy Museum stands as an essential venue for both local and international visitors interested in exploring the artistic history of Hungary and the broader evolution of European visual arts.
Other museums in this town are more interesting in my opinion.
Very interesting archeological elements, staff very friendly, but frustrated because there was any information in English or other language, everything just in Hungarian. So, the overall experience loses their attractiveness.
Lovely museum of 20th century art. The permanent exhibits have English descriptions. Great introduction the artists of Szentendre.
Super
Nothing in english or another language except hungarian.

Nestled in the heart of Szentendre, the Saint Peter and Paul Church is a stunning architectural gem with a rich history. Originally built around 1750 as a Serbian Orthodox church, it transitioned to Roman Catholic ownership in 1942 and was renamed. The church underwent significant renovations in 1989, restoring its beautiful exterior features like the roof, bell tower, and clock that now keeps perfect time after years of disrepair due to World War II.
Saint Peter and Paul church. Lovely.
Konstantinos B — Google review
The whole outside of the church was nicely reconstructed recently. The roof, the paintings, the bell tower and the bell itself. And finally the clock of the tower is showing the corect time again. It was ruined during the second world war, and was broken untill recently.
The largest church in Szentendre was originally built for the Serbian Orthodox community in 1791.
Its Serbian name, Ciprovacka Church is still used.
The late Baroque style church was used until the Serbian community emigrated at the beginning of the 20th century, taking with them the equipment and the iconostasis of the church
Can be accessed by wheelchair. If you can manage the bumpy roads 😀
Excellent service! They website is very up-to-date
Beautiful and traditional church, in a very beautiful little town.

The Margit Kovács Ceramic Museum in Szentendre, Hungary is a must-visit attraction for art enthusiasts. It features over 300 figural sculptures created by the celebrated 20th-century Hungarian ceramic artist Margit Kovács. The museum, opened in 1973, proudly displays the versatile and timeless creations of Kovács, a Kossuth Award-winning artist.
So glad I got to see this exhibition. The opening hours are the best by far as well so it’s hard not to miss. Many rooms of incredible ceramic art - she was a true artist!
Louise C — Google review
I like the way Szentendre has so many small museums each one dedicated to just one artist/craftsman. Here you can see a great collection of Margit Kovacs ceramic works. The entry price of 1700 HUF will also give you access to other museums around the town, so make sure you keep the receipt.
There's a particular one way circuit around this exhibition. I nearly missed some of it as I couldn't understand Hungarian and the staff couldn't understand English. But with a bit of gesturing, I found the right way around.
What a lovely magical place! I am glad to have discovered the beautiful and strong works of this great ceramic artist. I loved the Madonnas, the mourners, the women, the animals... all in fact 🙂. There is even a space to touch some pieces. Nice ladies in the exhibition explain and show you.
Go and see the fantastic Margit Kovács Ceramics Museum. It is strange to discover an amazing potter from before and during the Communist era here in Hungary. One of her works is a round ceramic 3x3 meter world map with the USSR in the middle. We lived side by side in Europe but each with our own center of the world. Margit Kovác's ceramics are some of the most expressive I have ever seen.
Nice museum. 15-20 minute visit. Ticket price allowed entry to 4-5 other local museums. Overall the collection was nice.
A must to see place while visiting Szentendre. Just down from the main square. One of the most famous Hungarian artist Margit Kovacs lived and worked there. Great cut through her work. Outstanding pieces of art. Little shop, Cafe and WCs available too.
Very good works of a very good artist. May photo without flash.
Сeramics is always beatiful. Handmade stuff brings charm at home!

The Ferenczy Museum Center - ArtMill is a modern art museum located in Szentendre, Hungary. Housed in a former industrial building, it offers an interesting insight into the local art scene. Visitors can explore various exhibitions and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the space. While some visitors found it challenging due to language barriers, others appreciated the cool film exhibit and recommended it as a great art gallery to visit.
A small museum of contemporary art. The exhibitions were great and varied — we especially liked the machines by Viktor Lois. All of the art information is also translated into English, so it’s good for tourists! And the lady at reception was very welcoming.

For non Hungarian speaker it is really not easy
It is Saturday 15:20, the opening hours of the museum suppose to be from Thursday til Sunday 10am-6pm. The museum is closed
Good art gallery. No cafe and toilets were locked. But one was opened for us.
Great art gallery
Closed, whereas we were in the right opening day/time!! Why? Is it so difficult to indicate it on the door and on internet?
a nice exhibition space in a former industrial building - offering insight view into szentendre's art scene
Modern art museum. I recommend it!!!

Belgrade Cathedral, also known as the St. Lazarus Church, is a stunning example of Orthodox architecture located in Szentendre, Hungary. Built in the 18th century by Serbs, Greeks, and Dalmatians fleeing from the Turks, it showcases a unique blend of Baroque and Byzantine styles. The church is adorned with glittering icons and is adjacent to the Church Art Museum.
It's really nice and impressive. There is a small fee to get in and I suppose you can only pay cash, but I didn't visit it's interior.
Maria-Lorena R — Google review
A Serbian church in town. Entrance fee of HUF500 (as at Sept’24) is required in cash only, which is a lil bit inconvenient for visitors.
The garden there is calm and a lot of information boards about history are presented around for those curious minds even if you’re not able to go inside the church.
Can't actually get into the main grounds of the Church and you pay 400 HUF just to step inside to see the Altar when some other churches you can visit for free in the town.
Church connected to the Serbian students house, where Nikola Tesla was during his studies in Budapest. Many times he was inside, rising a prays for his family, and whole humanity.
Another beautiful orthodox church!
Closed most of the time. However it's one of the prettiest church around. The red color used os strikingly beautiful.
A wonderful Holly place for Orthodox Christians. Unfortunately one can not visit / worship / pray inside the Church unless he pays an enrance fee. Cards are not accepted and no other currency but Hungarian Forint. A very unpleasant and inflexible lady guards the entrance...
Closed most of the time. Open on fridays, saturdays and sundays only

Best chimney cake ever!!!!! They make them outside on the charcoal and the taste in delicious! They are more crispy and less sugary. We tried the basic one and the one stuffed with nutella and whipped cream. We spent 4.50€ and we ate them while we walked in this beautiful small town.
Bea R — Google review
Delicious food. We enjoyed a lovely lunch here with a group of 5. The goulash was SO good. We all really loved it. The fried cheese with jam was also a bit hit. One diner got Goose Livers and was very pleased. They have a vegetarian dish with onions and tomatoes and eggs that is nice. The homemade beer was tasty. I would drink another one! They make chimney cakes to order on the grill on our way out.
Goulash soup was one of finest I ate in Hungary. Portion was generous and can perform as a starter dish for two not-too-hungry persons😁
Beer was excellent.
Place to recommend.
Poor food experience, the fish with out any taste, the soup is poor but the price is much experience. I order 3 soup but he arrange 4 soup.
Never come again.
Great authentic Hungarian food best chimney cake I ever had. It was cooked over charcoal fire. Highly recommended.
Big group with family style lunch! Excellent food in traditional settings. There is an open area to drink beers and hear live music.
Truly amazing place! Not just because it's ~300 years old, but the service is excellent and the Food, ohh.... The dishes are super tasty! Portions are big! Even the camembert tasted special and it turned out that it is really a special one, from a nearby farmer. 5+*
We loved our soups(fish and beef). And the staff is super friendly. He can speak multiple languages that makes you WOW! I would recommend this restaurant if you visit Szentendre.

This cozy spot offers an extensive menu that caters to all tastes, featuring everything from fresh salads and hearty pasta to scrumptious bagels and nachos. Notably, it boasts a fantastic selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes as well.
Wonderful place! We came here in honor of the best friend of my wife and me. He was called 'Lex' and passed away a few years ago. In Hungarian 'legs' means 'the most' which is fitting for him so I ordered the 'lexebb': the most beautiful 😍
The dish was all freshly made, delicious and perfect!
Köszönöm!

My spouse and I recently dined at Café Lex for breakfast, enjoying delicious croissants and a full English breakfast. The service and ambiance were both excellent, and I highly recommend this establishment.
Off the main street, which is exactly what we liked.
Cozy atmosphere with quiet music that makes it easy to relax and chat. The food was tasty, the coffee was very good, and the homemade caramel brownie was excellent.
Would definitely visit again!
Really cute cafe. It is great to have so many vegan options. Good food and beverages, but the meal portions are a bit small, you'd need to order more than one plate to be filled.
For a speciality cafe it was a disappointment.
The coffee was really bitter, I couldn’t drink it, overpriced. The place itself is gorgeous and it has a great potential, please don’t waste it. Take out the specialty label or learn how to make better coffee out of those beans.
Lovely little place with a few vegan options!
A cute homey and children friendly brunch restaurant in the old town. The food variety were good and the taste was decent. Lovely staff and hospitality treatment. The kind lady took specific orders with care and one for the dishes were incorrectly prepared, she took the plate immediately, fixed the issues, apologized and gave some freebies, which was greatly appreciated by my friend. Good hospitality and customer care is quite rare in Hungary, so we were very happy and thrilled this cute spot were welcoming to foreigners and took care of us very well. Thank U cafe lex, and we should be popping by again if we visit the town again. Keep up the great work and I highly recommend visiting this cute brunch cafe.
This café, tucked away off the main street, offers a tranquil environment.
We ordered a sandwich and a slice of plum cake, and enjoyed a peaceful moment here.

We stopped by for a quick lunch and tried the chicken paprikas, a soup, and their flavored lemonade. All good! We enjoyed the paprikas. Prices are pretty average. Service was friendly and attentive. The place has both indoor and outdoor seating. We enjoyed watching people at the main square while having a tasty meal. Nice little spot for good food!

A Hungarian restaurant in a Hungarian atmosphere, a beautiful place but it's cold inside and they didn't turn on the heating. Very nice people. The food is fine The drink is very tasty, I took a strawberry lemonade, the toilets are clean
Good value for the location. I was a bit afraid ending in a tourist trap, but it was a nice experience in the end. I picked up one of their seasonal offer (duck liver) and a glorious dessert (Kereskedohaz cake 😍).
Last days of October were still warm enough to eat outside, and having lunch in front of the beautiful Fo Ter place was unarguably a fantastic experience.
Kereskedohaz Etterem in Szentendre is a wonderful place to experience authentic Hungarian hospitality in a charming setting. The restaurant is located in a beautiful historic building that adds to the overall atmosphere, making your visit feel special and unique.
The staff are friendly and welcoming, always ready to help and make you feel at home. One highlight was the super spritz cocktail, which came with a surprising but delicious twist—a slice of watermelon. It was an unusual combination but worked really well and added a fresh touch to the drink.
The food menu offers traditional Hungarian dishes that are well-prepared and flavorful. The whole experience felt genuine and relaxing, perfect for enjoying a meal after exploring the town.
If you’re in Szentendre and looking for a place with great drinks, good food, and a warm atmosphere, Kereskedohaz Etterem is definitely worth a visit. Five stars for the beautiful location, excellent service, and creative drinks. Highly recommended!
Excellent food at an affordable price, friendly service. I definitely recommend this place.
Super friendly waiter, amazing soup, and the best goulash after trying several in Budapest
We had a delicious lunch here. The restaurant is in a small, but picturesque square where you can sit outside or inside. The service is warm and welcoming and they speak very good English.
We ordered Lemonades, Creamy Asparagus Soup, Chicken Soup, Grilled chicken in a Chilli & honey sauce with rice and Spaghetti with Salmon. The food & drinks were very good.
We have just had a fabulous lunch here - absolutely delicious food, friendly and welcoming service from the waitress and great ambience all round. We had the stuffed chicken and pork rolled in bacon, along with the flavoured lemonade, and it was all fabulous! Reasonable prices and real Hungarian cuisine. Highly recommended!

Korona Étterem is a historic restaurant that has maintained its charming and nostalgic ambiance for over two centuries. It offers a variety of dining settings, including a terrace with views of the Main Square, a garden, and cozy interior rooms that are open year-round. Guests can savor authentic Hungarian dishes such as Venison & wild mushroom ragout and Hungarian fish soup while enjoying live music performances. The restaurant also serves traditional favorites like Wiener Schnitzel and goulash soup.
What a find on a sweet square. We had been walking in the rain, so the warm food was perfect. The service was slow, but I think that's more Hungarian style than this specific restaurant. Fun local wines by the glass and the most tasty Venison & wild mushroom ragout I've had. Rice was substituted for the potato croquet on my dish.
Heidi R — Google review
A nice traditional Hungarian spot, which was warm and had friendly staff. Live orchestra band was lovely. Food wasn’t the best and probably more expensive than it should be. Would recommend booking as will get busy, especially as there is not a lot of other places to eat in the town. Very near the famous umbrella picture spot.
Food was good, nothing to comment about that. But i think this is a common problem for Hungary as far as i can see. Hygiene is lacking everywhere i go here.
Also, to the prices in the menu they add a 13% percent service tax. At the end the waiter asked us if we want to leave a tip, and i asked him what about the 13% “service tax” and he answered that the 13% goes to the chef. I find this weird and uncommon and overall i wouldnt dine here again.
Please don't waste your time at this restaurant. The service is terrible. They took a long time to bring the food, and one of the dishes wasn't what we ordered because ordered pizza, but they delivered a different one. When we complained, they quickly brought the same pizza with the same ingredients as the one we had originally ordered. It was terrible! We later found out there were much better restaurants in the area.
We had a bad experience with the cashier here. They thought we were foreigners who didn't understand Hungarian so they tricked us into paying a higher bill. When I claimed it wasn't my bill the cashier refused to check and claimed he was right, only until the waiter came to confirm it did he pay the correct bill with a bad attitude. Foreigners should be careful here. I don't recommend it to you
When I finished my meal and went to pay, my bill was supposed to be around 12,000 HUF, but the cashier gave me a bill for another table totaling 17,000 HUF.
I told them that this was not my order and that my table had different dishes, but they refused to check and insisted that I pay the wrong bill. The cashier’s attitude was very unpleasant and unprofessional, even though the mistake was clearly not mine.
Only after I asked a waiter to confirm what we had actually ordered did they realize the mistake — yet they still acted annoyed and didn’t even apologize. Very disappointing experience.
Bad experience today!!
I sit at long table. I don’t have choice when I came into restaurant. After a while , there has a family customer coming and come to sit at this long table. I think they has 8-9 people. It’s very obviously I can’t keep sit here. I felt very embarrassed because it’s likes that is my fault to sit here. The waitress didn’t explained to me anything. Until my face became very embarrassed then there has a waitress asked me “would you like to change to another seat”. I asked waitress Is this table has reservation? But I get the answer is “No”. If the waitress come to ask me to move to another table before this family coming to sit down that I will not felt so embarrassed and I will happy to change.
I was waiting around 30mins to get my meal. The chips very dry and not heat. The red wine beef stew was okay.
I don’t understand why so high reviews restaurant but they offer damage plates.
my payment is 4114HUF . They charged 1HUF more became 4115HUF. But I was pay by card not pay cash so I feel this is very unreasonable.
We enjoyed the testy Hungarian fish soup while the band was playing beautifully Danube Blue.
I showed the musicians their photos 4 years ago when I visited the restaurant the 1st time. I will definitely come back to this restaurant when coming to Szentendre.
