Recently opened Jelen, a nice addition to the Budapest nightclub and bar scene, is quickly gaining popularity among both locals and travelers by word of mouth alone.

This spacious bar subtly decorated with arty posters opens every day at 4 pm, just when you are almost done with your job and errands and ready to have a pint.

This new addition to kert (open-air bars) family is a huge terrace with a spectacular view of the Danube, Margit Island, and the pool that offers good service, nice food at reasonable prices and music by a DJ.

Relaxing and energizing atmosphere. Remember to visit the toilet to see its extraordinary keeper.
