At the Legendary Café Gerbeaud | Budapest, Hungary

This goes out to the lovers of fine chocolates and the connoisseurs of divine pastries, I share your passion and would never steer you wrong.

Café Gerbeaud has been a gastronomic delight since 1858, and is one of the oldest cafes in Europe. For over 160 years Café Gerbeaud has specialized in gourmet chocolates, traditional Hungarian cakes, and other fine pastries.

The Saloon inside Café Gerbeaud

Stepping inside the saloon was a lavish step back in time with elegant chandeliers, Rococo style ceilings, and rich wood furnishings.

If it is a fine weather day, al fresco dining is a beautiful way to experience this legendary cafe. That is how I spent my time at Gerbeaud- sipping sparkling wine, eating cake, and soaking in Budapest.

Greetings from Cafe Gerbeaud in Budapest!

I believe in visiting the oldest eateries in a city, since it sets a form of groundwork on the food culture of a region. Café Gerbeaud shows off the elegance of old Budapest, and is seamless with the city’s classic Eastern European flair.

The final eastbound stop in the sweet-tooth triathlon (After Angelina’s in Paris and Demel’s in Vienna), Budapest’s famous Gerbeaud coffeehouse is a neo-Baroque throwback to imperial times…

  2. […] Since this meal was the start of a six week solo journey through Eastern Europe and the Balkans, I decided to celebrate with myself and go all out. I ordered a very extravagant and lavish lunch but with no dessert. I saved that treat for one of the oldest dessert restaurants in the city, Café Gerbaud! […]
