 Gerbeaud confectionary & restaurant by globetrott Gerbeaud confectionary & restaurant is not only a great place to have coffee and a cake, but also a place of history, taking you back to the high times of the Austrian-Hungarian empire, when in 1858 Henrik Kugler built his 1st Kaffeehaus in the traditional Viennese style, that you actually will hardly find at all in Vienna any more today. Emil Gerbeaud was the next owner of the cafe and he soon became famous for his cafe. In summer you may sit outside and watch the people passing by, in winter you may enjoy the great atmosphere inside with lovely ornate stuccoworks, golden ornaments and chandeliers and an incredible choice of cakes !!

Best way to unwind after a day running around the city, is to sip on a strong espresso and a sweet treat in cozy cafe. With several outdoor and indoor cafes to choose from, one can easily sit back and mediate on your day or just 'people watch'. Some of the most famous are: the Cafe Gerbeaud, where indugling your sweet tooth has been made into an art form. Fine varities of pastries, ice creams and coffee concocuctions.And the Ruszwurm, in the Castle Hill district of the city, the oldest Pastry shoppe in the city. Cherrywood panels and its excellent sevice as made it one of the best. I recommond the Linzer torte and the Francia Kremes. And the New York Cafe, where many are drawn to the nostalgic charm of the interior and the spirit of the past. And if you are looking for the nghtlife, to make it easy for any visitors I would suggest staying around the Liszt Ference Square near the Octogon, as this area is full of cafes, discos and bars. And most are attractions for the young and areopened well into the early morning hours.

The best cakes and pastries in Budapest served in a sumptuous environment
|
Gerbaud is worth a stop for a snack. It is hard to decide which pastry to choose since they all look so tastey. Sit outside so you can check out what is going on in the square. While we were eating a Bulgarian group was selling crafts and playing music/performing. I have to say that the cakes looked better than they tasted, but they still were good.

 Cafe Gerbeaud - outside by anaiis After walking down the glamorous Vaci u. this famous cafe is your end stop. Relax outside on sunny days or admire the beautiful interior inside. It is actually NOT that expensive as they warn you. More about its history - check the website. Must try cakes: Eszterházy and Dobos, Ice cream quite close to the one in Sorrento, Italy. But not quite IT. Leave a Comment

Whoever comes to Budapest visits Gerbaud for a cake or an ice cream. This famous patisserie is always crowded and you should be very lucky to find a table with Vorosmarty Square view especially in winter time. During summer time there will be tables outside which gives more availability. The cakes and desserts are really delicious so don't miss it.

-->...of course the Gerbaud building wich is one of Budapest`s symbolic architectual landmarks. It was founded in 1870 by Henrik Kugler. This confectioner from Sopron constructed this building and than, since he had no sons, ha gave it to Emil Gerbaud a swiss collegue who met in Paris in 1882. In fact, Gerbaud came to Budapest and yet in 1884 he was the owner of the confectionery. He stayed here in Budapest until his death in 1919. In 1910 the palace was transformed in secessionist style. Even in the communist times this building conserved the same reputation of the initial times, although under the name of Vörösmarty confectionary. In 1995 the building was completely refurbished by the new owner, the german Erwin Müller. In the building besides the confectionery, you find a restaurant, a beer house, and numerous conference halls as well.
