About Szimpla Kert
Jazz drifts through the early hours on Kazinczy utca, then gives way to chilled house and, later, techno that pushes the volume up and turns the mismatched flea-market furniture into standing room. The bohemian, vintage sprawl of District VII suits that shift — nobody sits still for long once the room fills, and there's food of various kinds to keep the night going. Thursday through Saturday are the heaviest, drawing a mixed international crowd of Western Europeans and South Americans alongside locals, mostly in the 25-45 range with 18 the drinking minimum. Prices sit in the moderate band, dress is smart casual without much rigidity, and doors stay open until 4am every night of the week — from 3pm on weekdays, noon on Saturdays and as early as 9am on Sundays. Open year-round, and the 4.6 rating across more than 72,000 reviews speaks to its pull.
