Goulash.
Langosh.

The Signatures

Two recipes you will not find anywhere else.

Bribacsa goulash soup

Bribacsa®

Bribacsa® is our signature goulash soup, a family goulash recipe that has been passed down through generations, seasoned with a blend of spices rooted in our family’s culinary heritage. The name itself is proprietary and you will not find it anywhere else. It is a registered trademark of Netpromotion Invest Kft. Unlike standard goulash, Bribacsa® uses a specific layering of paprika, slow-cooked meat, and a house cream preparation that makes the broth distinctly richer.

Briboka paprikash

Briboka®

Briboka® is our signature paprikash, think of it as the dish form of what Bribacsa® is in soup form. It is a Hungarian paprikash made with our family’s recipe, served with traditional hand-rolled galuska (dumplings) and a creamy paprika sour cream sauce. Also a registered trademark. Available in Beef, Chicken, Pork, and a vegetarian Vega version. The Truffle Beef Briboka® is the premium version.

Since 1954

The presszó that
outlived the plans.

Nádor utca 19 has fed this street for seven decades: a presszó through every era of the city, now home to the family goulash and langosh.

the fifties

The doors open as a presszó in 1954: espresso, soda siphons, the hum of Nádor utca.

the golden team

The Aranycsapat wall goes up: clippings and pride from the golden age of Hungarian football, still watching over the room.

through the decades

Regulars come and go, the espresso machine hisses on, and the presszó keeps its habits while the city changes outside.

the family arrives

The family brings the bogrács: the goulash in the bread bowl and the langosh join the coffee.

today

Order at the counter, sit under the wall, stay a while. The Plan outlived the plans.

Seven decades in, the pot is still on.
The house since 1954

The Wall.

Half a century collects on one wall: Aranycsapat clippings, soda siphons, enamel signs, presszó relics. Every piece has a story and the staff know them all. Ask about their favourite.

Good To Know

Questions, answered.

Bribacsa® is our house signature goulash soup, a trademarked recipe belonging to Netpromotion Invest Kft. The name and the dish are both original creations inspired by our family’s Hungarian cooking traditions. You will not find it anywhere else in the world. It is richer and more complex than a standard beef goulash, with a spice balance refined over years.
Briboka® is our signature paprikash stew, also a registered trademark of Netpromotion Invest Kft. Where Bribacsa® is a soup, Briboka® is a thick, slow-cooked main dish. Think a paprikash taken a step further with a family recipe that has never been published. Both names come from family memory and have no direct translation.
Yes. There is a vegetarian goulash soup, and the vegetarian dishes, several langosh among them, are marked on the menu. Nothing on the menu is marked vegan, so if you eat vegan, please ask our staff before you order.

The neighbourhood

Two streets from Parliament.

Nádor utca runs quiet and grand: the Parliament dome at one end, the Basilica behind you, and the presszó in between.

The Hungarian Parliament

Down the street and left at the river: the dome, the Danube, the whole postcard. A short walk from the table, best at sunset.

St. Stephen's Basilica

A few minutes the other way. Coffee here, the dome there, and the city between them.
