Deszka Budapest

The minimalist name and understated façade belie the playfully styled interior, with hints of retro charm. But this all-day brunch spot is far more than just another tourist-friendly café serving porridge and avocado toast—though both can be found on Deszka’s menu. The kitchen is creative, the dishes are well thought-out, and their presentation is equally impressive. The atmosphere is laid-back, yet the team takes their craft seriously. Something rarely seen in city-centre brunch spots that close by afternoon is their sense of community; they even host evening wine tastings. Brunch classics are prepared with quality ingredients, avoiding shortcuts, and plated with an eye for detail. Here, the full English breakfast comes with sourdough bread and marinated vegetables, while both the French toast and the Hungarian poppy-seed bread-and-butter pudding are made with artisan brioche. A true standout in its category.
