Alex writes a happy cow review while drunk

It was great, everything was good, it was the best thing we ate in Budapest. That cashew pasta was like an orgasm in my mouth and I want it again so bad. But also everything was like an orgasm in my mouth here, but also especially that pasta.
Was also pleasantly surprised that the pulled jackfruit burger wasn’t the same pulled jackfruit burger you get at every vegan joint. Ten outta five, this place is the bees knees. Enjoy the photos! I was sober when I took them, promise.

Pros: Cashew pasta , Goulash , Jackfruit boiga

Nice small bistro

Very nice small bistro.
Delicious food and BudaPrés cider. I had BBQ jackfruit, which was not much bbq. It was more like spicy paprika flavoured, but it was quite tasty. I liked their kind of burger buns.

Pros: Place, Taste

Restaurante e pub vegano

Tive um excelente jantar no Szabad. Pedi uma sopa tradicional hungara em sua versāo vegana, bean goulash. O prato estava bem caprichado e muito gostoso (foto).

Outros destaques foram o atendimento muito cordial e o ambiente agradável do pub/restaurante.

Pros: Totalmente vegano, Comida gostosa, Ambiente agradável

More a pub than a restaurant ....

I walked quite some time to get there and the young man at the bar informed me right away that this was a vegan only place probably because I'm a bit over 60 and a young man like that can't imagine that someone who could be his mother or perhaps even grandmother could possibly be vegan ... The food was OK, but nothing special. They have two dogs lying around on the furniture where you would perhaps sit afterwards. I don't like dogs in restaurants. OK if people come in with a small clean dog, but those dogs were the dogs of the restaurant owners ... The chef who I could see cooking through an opening towards the bar has very, very thick sort of rasta hair and not covered up. He's white, but his rasta hair is more impressing than that of a Jamaican guy (Grace Jones) ...

Sadyl no Vegan Food when we were there

Als wir gestern Abend hinkamen, gab es leider kein Essen, da die Küche geschlossen war. Schade- aber it happens! Der Service hat sich sehr dafür entschuldigt und war super super nett. Wir sind trotzdem auf Drinks geblieben, da uns der Laden super gefiel! Alternative & künstlerische Atmosphäre- danke fürs kreieren eines so tollen Platzes!

Delicious vegan food!

Very nice food. Can definitely recommend the Carbonara! The restaurant has its own style and I almost melted cause there was no air conditioning.

Pros: Carbonara pasta , Friendly service

Cons: No air conditioning

Tasty Hungarian dishes

Very relaxed atmosphere, nice staff. We really enjoyed the goulash and the carbonara but the vegan chicken burger could’ve been better

Great for dinner

I had dinner in the restaurant and it was a nice, calm atmosphere. The food was good and the staff was really friendly. I have to say that my highlight was the "cheese" sauce tho hahaha, never had such a good vegan cheese sauce. The bread of the burger was also super good!

Updated from previous review on 2024-08-16

Pros: everything is vegan, the cheese sauce is amazing, cozy restaurant with friendly staff

Delicious

The Balkan Burger from Szabad Bisztro was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere here is chill and inviting. The only issue for me is that there was no AC and it was hot out. The heat was worth putting up with though for this very unique burger and the support of a local vegan business.

Not too much choice today

Unfortunately not too much choice today. The daily menu with soup and stuffed kohlrabi was nutritious and tasty though. Friendly service.

The restaurant had a nice laid back atmosphere. I ordered the pulled porc burger and fries and it was tasty, if a little colder than I would've liked

Pros: Nice atmosphere, Tasty food

Cons: Food a little cold, No outdoor seating (no space for it), Location a little out of the way

Out-flippin-standing

This was our 2nd visit after first coming here last year and really enjoying the balcan burger. I chose the Beyond meatballs in garlic and tomato sauce and my wife went for the dirty fries with 'not chicken' nuggets. The fries were a little too salty but the tomato and garlic sauce that the Beyond meatballs are served in was outstanding.
If you're in Budapest and you're vegan, you have to come and check Szabad Bistro out. You won't regret it.

Pros: The food, The service , The beer

Cons: Overly salted fries.

Good vibes, good food

I had the hortobagy pancake and potato casserole. The hortobagy was very flavorful, and it was stuffed with thinly sliced mushrooms. I would’ve personally preferred a protein filling / something more binded, but it was nevertheless an enjoyable experience.

The potato casserole was comforting, it had some tofu egg / sour cream and vegan sausages in it. It wasn’t the most flavorful or interesting texture-wise — though I’ve also never had the original Hungarian version, so I don’t have a point of comparison.

Best fkn burger

Burger is more hungarian traditional style but we absolutely loved it. Not a burger fan but its the best one I have ever had.
Place is very ruin pub / hipster like, all the decor is very out of the ordinary as well.
Great food and a unique setting.

Pros: Great food , Hipster decor
