Fekete Kutya

If you would like to escape the rowdy bachelor-party tourists in Budapest's Jewish Quarter but stay within the neighborhood, make your way to Fekete Kutya. Despite its location alarmingly near Kazinczy utca, Fekete Kutya flies under the radar of most people and remains an unfussy bar mainly frequented by local alternatives. During the warmer months, people spill out to the outdoor tables under the arcaded alley. Also here: excellent Czech craft beers on draft.
