Budapest is known for its stunning architecture and not without reason. Some of the most beautiful buildings in Europe are to be found in this city as well as one of the most beautiful cafés in the world. New York Cafe located within the Anantara Hotel looks like Versailles with gold trim and ornate ceiling. The setting is simply breathtaking!

As soon as you enter the hotel it feels like stepping back in time where beautiful celings and impressive columns take you to another era. Be prepared to spend more time taking photos than dining. To be honest, the food and drinks were rather average but you don’t to tourist hot spots like these for the food! For Instagrammers, this café is a must-visit. Rarely do you see a place so majestic and the first sight of it just takes your breathe away.

Tips: book well in advance as this café is extremely popular.

Price Range: tea and coffee start around 4-5€ and an afternoon high tea set for 2 will cost you around 65€, which isn’t cheap. To visit New York Café without breaking your bank, come for drinks only as the food is so so.
