    It's a magical place, guys. A hidden gem in the heart of Budapest. Amazing crew, nice guests, the drinks are very well mixed, nice repertoire. Definitely recommend it if you want to grab a couple of drinks.

    Unique and high quality (but cheap!) cocktails, amazing atmosphere, really relaxed and great music. Friendliest staff that we've encountered in Budapest, felt welcome from the get go, please make sure you get yourself here!

    We stopped for a quick drink late afternoon and as expected was quiet. The barman was a true gent, gave us loads of recommendations and mixed us a decent cocktail. It's one of those tiny hole on the wall locations that when it's on feels like it's one of those nights to remember.

    Literally our favourite place to go in Budapest when we visited! The staff were just insanely kind and lovely and couldn’t have been nicer. Great cocktails and at such a great price. The vibe is immaculate and we felt so welcomed there, they even remembered when we came back which was the sweetest thing ever. If you go anywhere, go here 🫶🏻

    Cozy place to have a drink. If you are lucky, you will have Adam as your bartender. He is super cool and very friendly.

    Favourite stop on Budapest weekly Pass. Possibly best value drinks in town for the excellence of quality offered. Not a tourist destination with plentifora of underground flavour. However if you want a crowded space beyond a seazon or/and unpopulated drink bar in the seazon this venue hits a sweet spot. To do them justice one have to mention different flavours of pinacolada here and few other local specialities. Sex onthe beach was amazing or a Brave lion if you dare (I didn't...). Happened to live near by so become my favourite stop before hitting a night out. Tram 6/4 gets you there.

    Adam, the lonely bartender, celebrates on the 19-10-19 , two years for opening the Rabbit Hole bar. The world-wide geek bar is full of mysterious surprises, which correspond with Alice who has fallen into the rabbit hole, from the paintings, decorations on the walls and various icons to the designed cocktails, served in morning smoothie glasses, with iconic names from Alice's books and films. The hit is the box games (in Hungarian) or console games, which delight the celebrants in the bar. A variety of cocktails, beers (requiring urgent stock replenishment) buts, and an agreement with a nearby pizza bakery will cater to celebrants. Overall, a kind and inexpensive place to recap and end the day in Budapest.

    A place that I highly recommend to visit! Located next to Octogon and Terror house, the best place for a drink. They have a wide variety of drinks, cocktails and beers, have some board games available and a very nice atmosphere with cool music. All the staff and owner are very friendly and inviting!

  • 5/5 Srini V. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably the best bar I've been to, in Budapest. Not because of anything fancy. It's just a simple, small and cozy bar with board games. What makes this special is the service and the drinks. The people there are super nice. Oh and don't forget to try their best cocktail, Brave Lion

  • 4/5 laurence b. 1 year ago on Google
    Cocktails were good and the bartender was nice

  • 5/5 Francesca Dalla P. 1 year ago on Google
    We organised a cocktail class as a surprise for a bachelorette party and we had the best time learning how to make cocktails in The Rabbit Hole! The 2 managers are amazing, super friendly and flexible for specific requests, playing our playlists etc. We’ll definitely go again next time we are in Budapest!!

  • 5/5 Celia D. 1 year ago on Google
    The absolute nicest (and fastest) service we received in the whole city! The owner is incredibly friendly, atmosphere is great, it's clean and cosy, and last but not least - the cocktails were amazing! It's super tourist-friendly, cards are accepted, literally nothing to complain about. Can't wait to come back when I visit Budapest again!

  • 5/5 Mateusz M. 2 years ago on Google
    Really good drinks and relatively cheap. Moreover, the bartenders make your visit much more pleasant ;) I really recommend you to try at least one drink there!

  • 4/5 Andrew C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little bar that had some outside seating. Drinks were very reasonably priced and the bartender was very friendly. We had a Negroni which was good and their special cocktail called the Brave Lion which was full of booze but you couldn't taste it at all. My friend also wanted a Dark and Stormy which wasn't on the menu but after explaining how to make it, the bartender whipped up a pretty good one.

  • 5/5 Mr. H. 2 years ago on Google
    Price/quality are top here. Cocktails are handled with great care and fresh ingredients. The atmosphere feels informal, bit rough, masculine, playful, punky. Has an outside terrace.

  • 5/5 Lyndre N. 2 years ago on Google
    Really nice place with great pizza and very friendly staff

  • 5/5 Nicolas H. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Maximilian N. 2 years ago on Google
    The cocktails were great and atmosphere was great. The owner was kind and gave us great recommendations! The owner is speaking perfect English. You can also borrow board games in the bar. We were very satisfied.

  • 5/5 Theodore B. 2 years ago on Google
    Best bar I've been to in Budapest. The guy behind the bar is really accommodating and very good at knocking up a cocktail. Prices are cheap and the place has a cool grungy vibe going on. Feels very homely and welcoming. Recommend "The Brave Lion" cocktail. It'll get you where you're going.

  • 5/5 Rebecca Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Really cool place and the cutest bar dog ❤ The cocktails were amazing

  • 5/5 Pétur Rúnar G. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Anika Tabassum H. 1 year ago on Google
    Very friendly bartender! Also it offers great cocktails as well. Good place for hanging out at night.

  • 4/5 Raphael F. 5 months ago on Google
    Cool place, I liked the atmosphere and decorations. The service was good as well, smiley and friendly. Let down by cocktails (sorry!): cocktail ice filled the whole glass and barely left room for any cocktail. Bartender could only make cocktails on the menu: no margaritas 😭. Didn't try the beers, so worth a stop.

  • 5/5 The Girl With A P. 6 months ago on Google
    Exceptional drinks and a friendly bartender, I'll be coming back next visit to Budapest!

  • 5/5 Cecília K. 7 months ago on Google
    I loved this place! The drinks are reasonable and they taste great! I had a sex on the beach and the "sweetest, cutest, fanciest" cocktail which was a chocolaty cocktail. Both were amazing. The toilets are clean, except for some tear and wear. No mess on the floor and there's actually soap. The place is convenient, it's literally one block away from the 4th and 6th tram. I really recommend this place to everyone

  • 5/5 Jenna D. 8 months ago on Google
    Best cocktail class ever! So much fun and we made the best drinks! They take so manny fun pictures of you and make sure that you enjoy your experience, would 10/10 recommendation

  • 5/5 Mike L. 8 months ago on Google
    Great cocktails and really friendly staff, definitely worth a visit while in Budapest

  • 5/5 Britt Van L. 9 months ago on Google
    Very nice cocktails, cute place, nice decorations. The bartender was very kind and made us feel very welcome! Something we haven't felt much thus far as a tourist in budapest.

  • 4/5 Marv A. 9 months ago on Google
    Adam was the nicest Barkeeper ever. The alternative setting and feel good atmosphere got us immediately. As a Tourist, places where you are honestly welcome are not that easy to find. The rabbit hole managed it pretty well. The service even recommended cheaper but better drinks. We had a couple of cocktails and a veeery good pálinka. We will be back again! Köszönöm! I have to remove one star for the toilets. Please keep them a little bit cleaner and I'll go for 5/5.

  • 5/5 Haya A. 10 months ago on Google
    It's a really cool place, the staff there are very nice and welcoming and this is what matters the most to me. Cocktails are also nice and the prices are good

  • 5/5 Kristóf H. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely atmosphere, the bar is full of life, you can see that people enjoy themselves! I like the cocktails, they tasted great and looked even better, proper fancy! :) the bartenders are simply the best in town. You really can feel that they want you to have a good time, smiling and making jokes and making you feel cozy. Totally recommended, I will surely return many times! Thank you guys!

  • 5/5 Fernanda L. 6 years ago on Google
    A small and really nice bar in Budapest! The thematic and every small detail is was made with fun and passion. I recommend for a good drink or a good beer and also was useful to have some good tips from the bartender about the city. More like a local place then just touristic attractions.

  • 5/5 Stuart H. 1 year ago on Google
    One week after the newly relocated rabbit hole bar has opened and it’s as if nothing had happened,the staff are ultra attentive and nothing is too much trouble,great music,great drinks at slightly below average price for the area,what more could you want.

  • 4/5 Janine S. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent service and a nice selection of drinks - my partner greatly enjoyed his Nutella cocktail, which was essentially a dessert in a glass. Very cute theming as well.

  • 5/5 Ethan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Quickly becoming a trip highlight, we wound up ending several evenings here. As others have said, the drinks and staff were both excellent. At one point, when it was quiet enough, they even brought out Guitar Hero. 👌

  • 5/5 shubhangi s. 1 year ago on Google
    Small little cozy place. Staff was attentive and friendly. Drinks were good. We went in a weeknight however the place quickly became full. We had a great time. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 telo a. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place to grab s drink and have a conversation. The music volume is just perfect, the staff is helpful.

  • 5/5 Michal D. 1 year ago on Google
    It is the MOST AMAZING bar in Budapest. Well maybe not the most amazing. Actually it was mediocre. BUT drinks were better then ANYTHING i ever drunk. Or maybe not, I was drunk already. BUT i get wasteeeeed like NEVER before. Even if i remember whole night. And I remember the nights i dont remember soooo, u know where I am going with this. It was fun, friendly and original.

  • 5/5 Sig V. 1 year ago on Google
    I loved it here! The cocktails were absolutely delicious and the waiters were really kind and funny. It is, as the name says it, a hole so it might not be for everyone since it’s dark and quite small. But I would definitely recommend it.

  • 5/5 Josephine B. 1 year ago on Google
    Been here half a dozen times before and since I've just moved to the neighborhood, it'll definitely be my new local. The cocktails are reasonably priced and delicious, the decor and vibe is super cool and unique, almost speakeasy style. The bartender's are the best in Budapest - super friendly, funny and knowledgeable about their 'art'. Fantastic bar, don't miss it!

  • 5/5 Chloe R. 1 year ago on Google
    What a great find! Went there on a first night in Budapest and we were not disappointed. The cocktails are reasonably price (around 1800 HUF) and you get your money's worth. The staff were so fun and made us feel very welcome. Do try their signature cocktail "The Brave Lion"!

  • 4/5 ville r. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice place, very friendly man doing very good drinks. I can recomment.

    Lovely place nice and relaxing for a drink with friends

  • 5/5 chez b. 4 years ago on Google
    Went to this place based on its reviews and absolutely loved it. It's very small, dark but intriguing. This is voted in the top 5 places in Budapest to eat yet they don't make the food themselves. They serve pizza which is brought in from somewhere else. Whilst we didn't eat it ourselves it smelt lovely but don't go there expecting much choice as it's literally just pizza! Great experience none the less

  • 5/5 Leonie G. 3 years ago on Google
    Really amazing bar with lovely bartender! Great cocktails and the best rock music! Really recommendable 👍🎶🍻

  • 4/5 Daniel K. 3 years ago on Google
    Very nice place, its a little dark inside, which us great, gives a place a real rabbit hole like feeling. The lights and Alice in Wonderland themed design gives it a unique atmosphere. The bartender is funny, making jokes constantly, but not in a bad way. The lemonade is very tasty, comes in a jar. The coffee is very bitter, not atomatic at all, it's either cheap beans or bad coffe machine, but at least its made with care. The prices are not expensive. It's worth to visit surely.

  • 5/5 S. K. 3 years ago on Google
    Really nice and cozy place! A bit off the center but definitely worth the trip. The owner is friendly and sitting outside at night almost has a magical feel to it. Highly recommended, will definitely come again.

  • 5/5 Nicolas Z. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We followed the advice of some comparators and blogs, and pushed the part of this cellar-like bar. The decoration is .. offbeat .., and at the time we were a little scared. But the bartender is incredibly kind and attentive! It offers classic cocktails but also house creations. I recommend eyes closed! (Original) Nous avons suivi les conseils de quelques comparateurs et blogs, et avons poussé la parte de ce bar aux allures de cave. La décoration est.. décalée.., et sur le coup on a eu un peu peur. Mais le barman est dans d'une gentillesse et attention incroyable ! Il propose des cocktails classiques mais aussi des créations de la maison. Je recommande les yeux fermés !
