    Nice place, good traditional food. Gulash soup was nice as well as cabbage with meat. Drinks are nice as well. We had a really uncomfortable table and weren’t able to put out legs underneath, so we had to sit on a side - not really comfortable to eat… overall, nice nice nice Can’t say anything bad

    Saw some great ratings on this place but my experience was nowhere near comparable. Asked for a cold Frappuccino which came as a regular cappuccino with 2 ice cubes lazily chucked in. The eggs Benedict came with what looked like a low budget cheese whizz sauce,’worse quality than the plastic cheese on a McDonald’s burger. Eggs were over cooked as well. French toast was okay at best, another lazy assembly compared to pictures from other reviewers. Not happy at all.

    Very bad omelet ( burned ), very bad french toast . We cannot consider the salad as a salad . So disappointed. If you are tourist don’t think to come to here 😂

    💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Well done 👍 guys you made my day!!! This is the best place to eat BRUNCH or BREAKFAST or again lunch for dinner. Good option on brunch or breakfast 🧇. Have drinks as well like palinca or spirits or bear or Cider and is at a reasonable price. (I took a picture to see how big is the egg bread next to a big latte glass) Enjoy 😉

    A very good place to have your breakfast and have a great start on a day of sightseeing in Budapest. We tried the traditional sausages along with some fried eggs and they were delicious!

    (Translated by Google) Pleasant place in the heart of Budapest. The service is always great, the beer is cold and there is fur bread for dinner :) It is worth booking a table late in the afternoon, because it is almost always full. (Original) Kellemes hely Budapest szívében. A kiszolgálás mindig szuper, a sör hideg és vacsira is van bundáskenyér :) Érdemes asztalt foglalni késő délutántól, mert szinte mindig teltház van.

    Oh my God I was in Budapest for 4 days and I was in this restaurant every day. One of the top 3 places I have been to. Insane food, great service, very good prices. They have brilliant beer! I honestly recommend.

    One of the staff was super kind and helpful, the place is close by the center and has a nice lovely decoration. But unfortunately due to the Covid, they didn’t have the wonderful foods that appears on their page ☹️. So I ordered a tomato soup & spinach pie.

    Food was delicious. We had goulash and burger- very good . Waiters were polite. But....tiramisu was horrible. Dry cake with whipped cream -the cheap one. Could not have it.

  • 4/5 Piotr M. 8 months ago on Google
    We had a pleasant experience. However when the place is busy it can take a while for orders to come. Goulash soup was really good, chicken breast not so and goulash with dumplings a bit too salty. We also ordered lemonades and they were best out of all. Overall good experience.

    Surprisingly nice food with great selection, same goes for drinks. Coffee is good, not amazing, but good. Once they get your first order it's almost impossible to get a hold of any waiters afterwards to, like, order some drinks while eating or afterwards to stay longer, I guess it's to quickly flip the tables to new customers, however it's hard to pay when you cannot communicate your desire to leave. All in all, nice experience, service could be better, but I love coming here.

    Best gulash in Budapesht ! Waiters are very welcome, getting food fast. Local draft beer awesome. Enjoy this place. And try gulash only here.

  • 5/5 Amanda B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice spot to sit down for lunch outside, the interior is pretty neat. The steak was very good and the prices were very reasonable. I would definitely recommend for lunch. The cherry beer here is so good!

  • 5/5 Jamie-Leigh B. 1 year ago on Google
    Really great menu - loads to choose from. We had a really yummy breakfast, and great dairy free alternatives for coffee. Also a 5 min walk from the Dohany Street Synagogue so it’s great for tourists.

  • 5/5 Michal P. 1 year ago on Google
    A good brunch place, great looking location. Their terrace is just under an arch between two buildings which adds the little interesting ‘it’. Their coffee is great and the same can be said about a hamburger. The place is close to an airport bus stop and hence great if you need to refresh yourself after a flight.

  • 4/5 Alexandru F. 10 months ago on Google
    We loved the breakfast, the service was amazing. We had the French toast with cheddar and sour cream, American pancakes with maple syrup and berries jam, sausage variety with mustard and bread, the avocado toast with Parmesan. All dishes were tasty and we were not expecting such big portions, for drinks we had mimosas raspberry lemonade and double espressos. There was a very small issue with the service, as one dish was forgotten, probably because of the language barrier or because of the large number of customers, however the staff was very polite and apologetic also gave us a consistent discount. Thank you for the service and also for our time there !

  • 5/5 Richard AKA “Dickie of VXH” A. 2 years ago on Google
    Although, it is out of its natural season, I could have a really delicious letscho dish its portion being so large that about half of it ended up getting 'doggy bagged' for later enjoyment. I have also ordered some plain French toast on the side (they also serve those with fresh sour cream or cheese) that also got 'doggy bagged' in great proportion. Most commendable not only the kindness of staff members but their attention to detail even giving useful advice regarding how to re-heat French toast so as to restore its freshness without drying it out or make it super-hard to chew, as it happens if one pops it into the microwave, yet make it delicious and still safe to consume. Special thanks to the waitress for her friendliness and to the waiter for turning on the infrared heater so sitting outdoors did not come with that shivering feeling of getting cold as the November sunshine's warmth vained.

  • 3/5 Dániel P. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly and very hospitable staff. The quality of the scrambled eggs were very basic but the bundáskenyér was pretty good (great portion as well), although dry on its own. There’s only 1 plant based milk to choose from for your coffee. For this price range I expected a bit more, also the homeless people coming up to us on the patio constantly was pretty annoying..

  • 4/5 BC B. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was ok (4 stars not 5). We tried their English breakfast that is served all day, a burger, and another Hungarian dish (it wasn’t goulash but something w cabbage, 2 sausages, stew-like w good white bread. See the picture). Soft white bread was very different and delicious, and is pretty much served w all the other dishes. The burger came w tortilla chips (not fries!). Ordered lemonade and it was a real squeezed fresh lemonade 👍

  • 5/5 Zsófia S. 2 years ago on Google
    Massive portions of tasty food, we had breakfast and were served by a lovely waiter. Very attentive to our needs and generally kind, cheerful service.

  • 2/5 Denis S. 2 years ago on Google
    Very different from what you see on the photos here! Maybe good if you love huge piles of bread.

  • 5/5 Omri T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for breakfast! I tried the french toast with bacon - very tasty and a huge portion. Recommended!

  • 4/5 fatma e. 2 years ago on Google
    It is in avery central place. It has a place outside over which a nice archway exists. I had goulash which was very delicious. I higly recommend it. The prices are quiet cheap. The place is also very close to the bus station to airport.

  • 1/5 Diederik Cames van B. 2 years ago on Google
    The food(french toast, scrambled eggs) was very basic and sadly tasted mediocre at best. The Cappuccino tasted weird and didn't smell like coffee very much. We didn't receive our ice coffee even after reminding the service, but it did end up on the receipt. After pointing that out they were helpful and friendly and we only had to pay for the food. Still, they really need to up their game!

  • 5/5 Teodora L. 11 months ago on Google
    We had breakfast here and everything was so delicious! Waiters are polite and nice, and they speak several languages. The food was fresh and the ambiance was nice and interesting. We will visit again for sure.

  • 5/5 Attila D. 1 year ago on Google
    I’m not happily spending money on food I can make at home, but I wanted show some typical Hungarian food for my gf from us. Staff is very helpful and nice, the place has a charming retro vibe, especially if u come from the western world. The menu is full of good options. Food portion is more than enough. Everything tasted good, as it had been home made. Prices are acceptable considering how bloody expensive are general items nowadays in this amazing country we call Orbanland. Jump in and try if you want some good bf brunch food.

  • 4/5 Aljohara S. 10 months ago on Google
    Food was amazing but i didn’t know that they woukd serve bread with the omelette so I ordered toasted sourdough with avocado then I got surprised that they got me bread too 🫣I had to eat what I ordered 🤷🏻‍♀️ delicious food but in a bad area!

  • 5/5 Seul L. 1 year ago on Google
    I loved food so much,that i went back for breakfast next day 🙈 but if it’s busy hour and without reservations, employees can be very moody and unfriendly. 😁

  • 3/5 Viktor L. 1 year ago on Google
    The place has a good atmosphere and the servers are nice as well. But unfortunately they could not build a proper burger. They totally roasted out the soul of the meat, it had no beef taste at all. They added some kind of house mayo based sauce to it - that was the one thing you could taste. The bun was soft and good structured though, but they forgot to grill it, so it was cold as hell. The tortilla chips on the side was included in the price (3500 HUF), however no sauce which is strange in this case. Overall the place is good, but stick to drinks and get food somewhere else.

  • 1/5 Kirill A. 11 months ago on Google
    Cider is awful :( Please, don't order draft cider. A lot of ice and light taste of "cider" with a lot of water. Caeser salad - chicken dead at least a week ago. It is impossible to eat - dry, hard chicken. Croutons are simple, without garlic or anything. So, there are a lot lettuce leaves and sous... Do not recommend to visit at all. It's a fortune. Maybe, for local people.

  • 5/5 Lauren S. 9 months ago on Google
    Really nice food and service, seating inside and outside. Great prices and good portions, recommend the BBQ breakfast!! Tomas was our server and was really lovely thank you!!

  • 5/5 Calvin C. 9 months ago on Google
    I had an absolutely delightful experience at Keksz Budapest, and I can't say enough good things about the exceptional service I received, particularly from Tomas. From the moment I stepped foot into the cafe, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine willingness to assist. Tomas went above and beyond to ensure that my visit was enjoyable and memorable. He was incredibly helpful, patiently answering all my questions about the menu and offering fantastic recommendations. It was evident that he was passionate about the cafe's offerings and took pride in his work. As for the food and beverages, they were simply outstanding! The menu had a wide variety of delicious options, and the quality of the ingredients was top-notch. Whether you're a coffee aficionado or a lover of baked goods, Keksz Budapest has something to please every palate. The ambiance of the cafe was charming, with cozy seating arrangements and a lovely decor that added to the overall enjoyment of my visit. The cleanliness and attention to detail were also commendable.

    Every time I go, I order my favorite salmon Caesar salad. It's a generous portion and incredibly fresh and delicious. The staff is always very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend it!

  • 3/5 Radka J. 8 months ago on Google
    Nice simple meals for breakfast - average comfort food. We had cheesy egg omelette and frankfurters for our breakfast, and it was good, but nothing special. Sausages were cold, eggs over-cooked, but not bad - just average. Servis was nice though, quick and accommodating. Outside sitting is little dirty - our table was sticky.

  • 4/5 Milad M. 6 months ago on Google
    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kekz Restaurant, and I must say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Not only did the staff provide exceptional service with a warm and inviting vibe, but the food itself was truly delectable.

  • 3/5 Petro F. 8 months ago on Google
    Stopped by as it was close to our airbnb and had good reviews. But overall, it was an average experience, and food was so so. Omelette with the salad means dried pile of eggs with 10 leaves of rocket salad no even dressing. The waffles were standard. Not sure why this place has good reviews

  • 5/5 Denis A. 6 months ago on Google
    Nice place to sit on sunny day. I got burger. The meat was good, but bun was not too fresh. Otherwise I enjoyed this place. Worth to try

  • 5/5 Megan J. 3 months ago on Google New
    Food was delicious and we had lovely server. A meal and two drinks came to a total of around £9 GBP which is very affordable. Would come back here

  • 3/5 Claudia M. 3 months ago on Google New
    The Egg bread was very good, the bagel with avocado very mediocre, the salad aside was yellow instead of green, no fresh products unfortunately. The pancakes were very flat, not fluffy at all

    Very disappointed. On internet, i read that they had the best salads in Budapest. The Cézar salad was really bad, composed at 90% of...salad... I didn’t finish it. Service is average and prices are expensive compared to the quality. I won’t come back.

    We came here with a group of friends only for a drink in the afternoon and we had a lovely experience. iPad a hot chocolate which tasted very rich. The service was fairly quick, even on a busy Sunday. They even let me bring in and eat my own donuts I purchased elsewhere previously. 😏 plenty of seating available both inside and outside

  • 5/5 Guy Z. 3 years ago on Google
    Exceptional Goulash. Great vibe. We don't have much left in Budapest but we'll make sure to plan it around so we can visit it again (in the photo you can see how it was like a few minutes after we got it 😅)

  • 1/5 Jeanne L. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Dávid N. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice place, polite waiters, and delicious food. I loved the soup that I got in the daily menu, it was really tasty. And I was actually so involved in a conversation that only later did I realize that the main dish I got was completely different from what I ordered 😄 but it was okay too

  • 1/5 A H. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly service but that wasn't enough to make up for the disappointing food quality. Orange juice was horrible, coffee was below average, the toast was really hard and the omlette was tasteless.

  • 5/5 Miklós H. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We visited the place with friends and received kind, fast service as well as delicious drinks and food for our money.

  • 5/5 Réka S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The service is very nice, cozy place. You have to be good with space for the terrace, but that's why you can't book it. The food is very good and you also get large portions. You can have breakfast all day (fur bread, etc.), prepare salads for yourself, but there are also hot dishes. Price is not as bad as it is centrally located. Great for people (like me) who like to sit out in the middle of the concrete jungle. (Original) Nagyon kedves a kiszolgálás, hangulatos hely. A teraszhoz ügyesnek kell lenni, hogy legyen hely, de pont ezért oda nem is lehet foglalni. A kaják nagyon jók, és nagy adagokat is kapsz. Lehet egész nap reggelizni (bundáskenyér, stb), összeállíthatsz magadnak salátákat, de vannak meleg ételek is. Árban annyira nem rossz, mint amennyire központi helyen van. Olyan embereknek (mint én) kiváló, akik szeretnek kiülni a betondzsungel közepére.

Yet that would be the point to spin the business. (Original) Hangulatos, kellemes hely. A személyzet lehetne figyelmesebb. Elég sokan vannak, mégis vadászni kell a tekintetükre, hogy észrevegyék, szeretnél valamit. Pedig ez lenne a lényeg, hogy pörögjön a biznisz.

    We had Full English Breakfast and it was mediocre at best. Coffee was good and the waiters were nice and smiling. I saw the waiters bring food to other tables and those looked much better so maybe it was just our luck 😕

  • 2/5 Nagy �. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The Biscuit IPA is delicious and the location is good. The quality of the food and service, however, is poor. In some places he cites the quality of the scraper places on Lake Balaton: instead of 4cl short, they smoothly bring out 3.5 cl, the bill is not right, etc ... I think after the virus, they switched from quality hospitality to short-term withdrawals. Avoided. (Original) A Keksz IPA finom, illetve a lokáció is jó. Az étel, a kiszolgálás minősége viszont gyenge. Néhol a balatoni lehúzós helyek színvonalát idézi: 4cl rövid helyett simán kihoznak 3.5 cl-et, a számla nem stimmelt stb... Szerintem a vírus után átálltak minőségi vendéglátásról rövid távú pénzlehúzásra. Elkerülendő.
