About

Szimpla Kert is the original Budapest ruin bar — a sprawling, eclectic complex built inside a crumbling 19th-century apartment block. Every room is different: mismatched furniture, vintage film projectors, bathtub seating, and walls covered in art. It's become a cultural institution, hosting farmers markets on Sunday mornings and live music most nights. If you visit just one ruin bar in Budapest, this is the one.
