Great atmosphere and decor in keeping. Very attentive staff, even put the game we wanted on a screen. Would definitely recommend it here.

Me, my girlfriend and 2 of our friends walked into the bar and there was about 10 people in there, was greeted by a w***** in denim shorts and a shirt that was 3 sizes too small for him. He came up to me and...with an attitude said "yes can I help you?" He asked if I had a reservation and I said no, he rolled his eyes and huffed and then said he could maybe find us a table but it would be cash only. We could clearly tell he didn't want us in there so we turned around and left and went somewhere else. From the moment we stepped in there we felt un welcome. Would definitely not recommend going here if you are looking for a nice friendly environment.More

Went for drinks. Was told to sit at a table, but didn’t have the football game we wanted to watch, so we moved to a table with a view of the game, the manager immediately started shouting at us and was extremely rude saying that...he was the one that chooses the seats and not us. After him putting our drink order on the “other” table as we wasn’t allowed to sit on this one, we got up and walked out without paying. I would avoid this place at all costs.More

Called in on a Saturday afternoon to ask if they would be showing a particular football match later that day. With it being a 'Sports Bar' i thought that was reasonable. Turns out this Saturday was for Rugby only. That's fair enough, i can accept...that. What i don't accept is the rude manner in which i was spoken to when i went downstairs to the bar. I was immediately approached but what must've been some sort of manager (didnt have the same shorts & t-shirt as the other staff) and asked if i had a reservation. Told him i didnt have one as i was only in to check if they were showing a match. Apparently all tables were booked for folk coming in to watch Rugby. Ordered a beer while i was there. The guy asked me how long i intended staying as there were people who had booked. Only wanted 1 so said i'll be here no longer than 15 mins. After a bit of huffing and puffing he pointed me into a corner and had to be out in 15 mins. If i hadn't been bursting for the toilet i would've turned round and walked out. Shocking service.More

Great sportsbar with many different channels. Nice environment and tasty (finger) food. Also always very responsive on email when you want to reserve. Good place to watch a match and drink a beer

While this bar is extremely cool and a place for all cultures to gather and watch sports, it has absolutely THE WORST service in Budapest. Our waiter, Christian, was extremely rude and angry towards us from the minute we walked in. As two bubbly blonde...international travels (from America), it was ‘not possible’ to sit in parts with locals and they would not allow us to sit at bar to watch our American NFL football. This was highly recommend by many but it was a grand letdown and made us very uncomfortable throughout our drink.More

Really cool sports bar which you could easily miss as the entrance is small. The bar is downstairs and it is cavernous. Loads of sports memorabilia, live football was showing. We were there late afternoon so wasn't busy but staff were helpful enough without being...overly chatty. If you like sports it's worth popping in to check for a drink. Beer was good.More

Absolutely horrible. Read their website advertising 18,000 channels and all sports for everyone. 4 mature aussies looking to watch australian sport on English Sky Sports, which they have, at midday. The minute the guy at the bar heard the word Australian he shouted (and I...mean shouted) "No" and refused to talk to us. Happened twice - Aussies avoid, it's a waste of time. And it's a pretty horrible dingy bar too ...More

Worst customer service i have ever had as a 59 year old. Meeting 3 friends who were already eating in the bar. We planned to all meet for drinks at 2pm in the afternoon, around 18 of us in total for our first drink of...the day. The bar manager said they were full, only around 10 customers in there eating and no one in bar area!!!! Refused to serve us a drink!! Laughable. Found other great bars who wanted our business.....becketts irish and sports bar fantastic with an owner who wanted u in his bar. Jack doyles also a welcoming bar.More

If you consider yourself the rudest, least educated person ever, they’ll hire you for sure. Went there 4 times to take a group, can’t tell which time it was worse… please don’t go there.

Pleasantly surprised when we stepped inside.... it goes downstairs and underground and is quite big with lots of sports memorabilia, it was empty, staff weren't overly friendly but ok..... We ordered burgers & chips and a drink, looked ok but burger was raw inside and...made me sick! Such a shame as this bar has so much potential!More

Extremely rude staff member. As other reviews have pointed out, the man behind the bar continually barked at us 'this is a restaurant' whenever we even stood up! I went to the bar to get a drink as I didn't know it was table service,...and the man was very rude and very sternly said, "this is not a bar this is a restaurant. No table service okay?!" It feels as if you are about to get in trouble whenever you stand up or dare move. I wanted to change seats, so when a couple left (who had a good view for the game I wanted to watch on tv) me and my friends moved there. The man again said," this needs cleaning, we are restaurant, okay?" And didn't let me move seats. The same phrase kept getting repeated, even though its clearly not a restaurant. Very strange place, would not recommend.More
