Coffee stops worth planning around in Budapest

Start with Espresso Embassy for espresso and filter in a vaulted brick room near the Basilica. Kontakt offers a smaller courtyard bar near Deák Ferenc tér, with KTRL coffees and a no-sugar approach. Both reward a visit focused on the cup; choose the room and coffee style that suit your day.
