01KAPTÁR

Named in 2 Reddit threads.
+1 for Kaptár, a bit expensive, but a space with a very pleasant atmosphere and just the right amount of bustle, sometimes I escape there from the home office too
+1 a Kaptárra, kicsit drága, de nagyon kellemes hangulatú és pont jól nyüzsgő tér, néha én is oda menekülök a home office elől

Named in 2 Reddit threads.
Művház on Bartók is cool, there’s a designated coworking table with outlets, you don’t have to pay extra and no-one bats an eye when you’re there for hours! Another one I go to usually is Montage

coworking spaceVisegrádi u. 14Work 100
Named in 2 Reddit threads.
Fabrik is not too far from Nyugati and they have desks upstairs for work. It’s a pleasant, quiet place.

library1 Szabó Ervin térWi‑FiWork 100
I usually go to the Szabó Ervin. You can't hold meetings there, but in exchange it's calm and you can focus, and for meetings you just pop into some nearby café.
Én a Szabó Ervinbe szoktam menni. Ott meetingelni nem tudsz, de cserébe nyugi van és tudsz fókuszálni, meetingekre meg vmi környező kávézóba beülsz.

05Dorado
café35 Klauzál utcaWi‑FiWork 100
Fabrik. Dorado in the big Table. Brew Brothers. Partizan. Vaj. Madal. ... All these places I’ve worked from there myself when I used to live in the city.

café15 Arany János utca★ 4.8Wi‑FiWork 100
Espresso Embassy is a laid-back coffee shop in central Budapest serving specialty espresso drinks, tea, and pastries. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, with a cool vibe that reviewers consistently mention.
Espresso Embassy is top tier in my opinion, spacious inside and out, with a large table, small tables and outdoor seating, though perhaps a little echoey.
Espresso embassy - top tier szerintem, kivul-belul tágas, van nagy asztal, kis asztalok, kinti rész, kicsit visszhangos talán

café5 Múzeum körútWi‑FiWork 100
I like to do work sessions in Fekete on Múzeum körút. Also perhaps Flow on Andrássy ave. Not the most inexpensive places, I visit them bc they have vegan options.
