Lorraine SSeptember 13, 2013Amazingly beautiful cafe on the top floor of the bookstore. They have a live pianist that really just makes the whole experience awesome. Get the orange-cinnamon hot chocolate! You will not regret it
Miruna SoareFebruary 9, 2014One of the most beautiful cafés in Budapest. Cappuccino and the apple and carrot fresh juice are great. I love it! And the service is not bad, the waiter was actually very friendly and spoke English!
Ilknur FronerSeptember 15, 2013They have a great ceiling which you would like to watch whole day! The prices are not expensive and service is really nice and fast. If you are going to Budapest you should definitely stop by there
We Love BudapestDecember 15, 2014The beautiful Lotz Hall is an ideal and frequented venue for various events. If you love books and adore old-world splendour, be sure to pay a visit! Read more
Hannah GillisMay 21, 2015The place is stunning and the staff are very friendly! They also have a gluten and lactose free cake, it's not on the menu but just ask for it!
Alex PyatetskyJuly 22, 2015Great AC. Very nice room. Didn't get to hear live piano but would've liked to. Most expensive cup of coffee in BP but nice place to sit and work. Reliable wifi.
Burak SansalJanuary 13, 2014Nice historic cafeteria with great ceiling paintings and decorations. Good desserts and coffees. Located inside Alexandra bookstore. Note that it's expensive and no credit cards!
Filipe SarmentoDecember 16, 2014Nice and stylish cafe with affordable and fair prices when taking in consideration its amazing interior. Great variety on the menu as well.
Anya BekhtaMay 16, 2015Named after Karoly Lotz, Hungarian painter, whose murals cover the ceiling. Magnificent atmosphere!
Jonathan KhooAugust 14, 2013As opposed to many 4sq tipsters, I had great service with staff who spoke excellent English. Also, if you're a customer they will refund your toilet money. Just show receipt.
Audra SFebruary 26, 2016Really enjoyed this beautiful place! Excellent, quick service with a smile =) The hot chocolate was to die for...
Mark ErrettOctober 9, 2014Slightly more expensive than others but worth it for the interior. Enter from Andrássy street and straight up the escalator to find it.
Gábor NagyFebruary 19, 2015This is the place where you need to take your foreign friends! Beautiful interior, good but not superior cafe, delicious cakes, although a bit overpriced.
Tamás LossonczyJanuary 16, 2015Beautiful hall with delicious coffee. I prefer if you walking on Andrássy street. Price is higher then the average but the quality is not cheap anywhere.
Anna WinnikDecember 28, 2015Marvelous decorations, perfect service, delicious sweets and good coffee. Champaign is not very good. Very cozy atmosphere.
Heiner TwenhäfelMarch 9, 2015Great place for coffee and cake in the afternoon. A little expensive for Budapest standards. Free wifi works well.

Jayant KaulAugust 5, 2015Great ambience - loads of history. Drinks were as expected - can't complain.

Karolina FichóOctober 27, 2014Amazing coffee in an amazing place. It is a bit pricey but worth it every time.
Carolina CorreaMay 10, 2015Amazing place to take a quick coffee - it's obvious you pay for the location, not so much for the quality of products served.

Adri RipsOctober 2, 2010gorgeous bookshop cafe' with a late 18th century flavour, always crowded; downstairs you can find books (in hungarian :) and a wide selection of wines
BeeeeJuly 31, 2015Very beautiful environment, nights of weekend has less people than working day. Margarita is 6.5, Maybe I should try the coffee instead.
Nurhan KeelerAugust 24, 2011It is a high ceiling place. If you want to bite someting try pate in croasan; is delicious. It is a surprising place
Alejandro LazarApril 26, 2013Incredible place and extremely good pastry! Come on at least to see the atmosphere.

Geertje R.August 6, 2012loved it! good coffee and bagel with salmon. the building (ceiling) looks amazing!
- Engin BaliJuly 22, 2013Before this place got popular among tourists last year, prices were quite reasonable. Since then, it's very expensive and they are charging for every extra stuff - e.g. milk for coffee & ketchup etc.
Jason KeathOctober 24, 2010Go to the second floor to find an amazing and hidden wine and dessert cafe with a beautiful, artistic, vaulted ceiling.
Sonia OsadnikJanuary 2, 2016Beautiful decor, good coffee and everything seems fine; unfortunately our waiter was terribly rude. Surprising for a fancy place like this.
