The Black Swan's nest is hidden in ordinary surroundings, inside walls that look average. A little light filtered out onto the street from behind heavy velvet curtains shows you are heading in the right direction. Once inside you will witness a magical world in an art deco environment where special drinks and a passion for gastronomy create miracles!

    The welcome was very cold. Nobody in this place. More staff than clients. This place is very small. Max 60m2. Cocktails are normal but expensive. So, don’t lose your time and spend your time in another place

    Be aware that you can only reserve a table for 90 minutes. It is a concept cocktail bar, so you can face surprises. Positioned higher than the actual service.

    From Black to never go back!!! - Awful experience - avoid absolutely Don’t go there, cocktails are pretentious and not worth the visit. Worst food ever for an overly excessive price considering the bad product quality, the place and neighborhood. What the hell is happening to 50 Best to recommend such a place. Good for student eventually… Bartender should definitely go train in London bars to understand the principles of visual, original and well equilibrated cocktails. Food is also a key component especially when there’s no much choice on the menu and we should be able to have quality and savor especially for the asking price. I had to almost make a scene as I was asked to pay for a second cocktail I barely touched. To be quite honest, having paid for 2 courses I didn’t eat and 1 cocktail that was just OK, was not even fair. So avoid this place, go and have a drink in a palace in Budapest you will definitely live an incredible experience.

    You cannot visit Budapest without visiting this fabulous venue This is one iconic bar that cannot be fully experienced until you have sat inside and savoured the atmosphere and more importantly….the extensive cocktail menu Book a table or get to the bar for an experience that will make you return 🍹
