Besides sipping on these delicious drinks, guests can also enjoy unplugged concerts, table tennis matches, Sunday markets, picnics in the green grass, and mouthwatering burgers.

The restaurant is located on Vigadó Square, looking on river Danube. This wonderful walking path along the Danube on the Pest side has always been a favourite meeting place for people and there has always been a coffe-house or a restaurant here ever since the 1870’s.
From early spring till late autumn you will find one of the most wonderful, panoramic terraces of Budapest. In the evenings there is also live music.

Try their fantastic beef soup - it is very similar to my mum's soup! In the middle of the day you can have 'business lunch' - soup + main meal for a bit less than 5 euros! It is simple but always perfect taste.
It is located on the beautiful square 'Liszt Ferenc'. You can have lunch or supper here on the day you visit the Opera house and famous Andrassy street.
About themselves:
'Our regular visitors know that Menza attracts both pensioners and popular actors to exhausted tourists. The reason is probably the versatility of our menu: from syrup to white beer, from Hungarian veal stew to red tuna salad, it is designed to please suits as much as skirts and jeans.'

In the park called 'Varosliget' (starting behind Heroes square) is the Zoo, the Circus and famous 'Széchenyi' bath with thermal water. You will find more playgrounds, ponds and beautiful architecture in the park too.
It is near Heroes square where there are 2 galleries for art (one for classical paintings and sculptures and one for contemporary exhibitions). All of these were built in 1896 for the world exhibition in Budapest. And there has been some wonderful renovations recently in the park. Also with some ongoing new projects (new Music hall, new museums...)
There is a huge new creative playground that can be fun with kids.
