Butter Brothers
Opened in 2012, Butter Brothers has been putting out sourdough breads and expertly made croissants for longer than most of Budapest's specialty bakeries. Today, you can still get a tasty whole wheat loaf or kakaós csiga (chocolate roll) here, but not all pastries stand up to the ambitious new bakeries around town.
You’re mainly here for the rolls – chocolate, cinnamon, walnut. There’s also coffee and half a dozen tables for lingering. Butter Brothers is located on an uneventful side street in Budapest's District 9, which means that customers consist of local residents and students from the nearby Corvinus University.
