At first glance, Café Miro appears a little out of place in the rustic Old Town section of Buda. The restaurant’s whimsical design, a la surrealist artist Joan Miro, combines bold colors, fluid shapes and funky metal furniture for a look that truly stands out in an area known for cobblestone quaintness.
The Café serves salads along with desserts (ice cream and pastries) and drinks, and is a nice place to take a break on Castle Hill. The fare is not as heavy as traditional Hungarian food – interesting green salads and healthier pasta dishes dominate the menu. Depending on the location of your table, you can see Trinity Square and Matyas Templom through the large plate glass windows. The clientele is a mix of young locals and tourists; however, in the evening when the tourist sights are closed, the Café is filled almost exclusively with locals. The Café sometimes features live music, and it’s open till midnight – which is unusual for this part of town. We stopped here for late night cappuccino and hot chocolate – it’s a good bet
