MyWine Wine Bar

MyWine is a snug wine bar smack in the middle of Budapest's downtown. With cushy sofas and plush chairs, the place is more comfortable than other wine bars in the city where high-stools and plastic tables are the norm. Thirty or so wines are served by the glass, dozens more by the bottle, all of them sourced from wine regions across Hungary. For some privacy, proceed to the secluded section in the back.

MyWine is a project of three Hungarian businessmen, each of whom also owns a winery (Barta, Szentesi, Bodrog Borműhely). Evidently, they spared no expense on the interior but the place also feels a little undermanaged currently: customers are few, tasting events rare, the food offerings not always available. With a bit more fine tuning, this wine bar could become a treasured haunt for Budapest oenophiles.
