Brilliant for lunch!

I really wasn’t sure about how good a vegan buffet would be but this is a brilliant concept! Love the daily specials they do too, so you could eat everyday here & have a delicious new set of fresh meals to sample.
Only gave 4 stars as opposed to 5 as I couldn’t imagine dining here in the evening on a date for example. Perfect for lunches though or stuffing you face on lots of healthy fresh food.

Pros: Daily menus, Variety of food on offer , Massive place & well staffed

Cons: Daily menu deal could be explained a little better

Good

The food was tasty and reasonably priced. I gave only four Stars because the food was just a bit warmer than room temperature.

So unfassbar lecker

Ich wollte mich unbedingt durch die ungarische Küche kosten und mir wurden unglaublich freundlich ein ganzes Tablett zusammengestellt. Jetzt bin ich mehr als satt und glücklich weil es so köstlich war.

Pros: Personal , Auswahl, Geschmack

Went back the day after

We had a lovely meal, It was at first difficult to know how and what to order but staff was helpful in directing us. What brought us back the day after was how amazing everything tastes and also how affordable It is.

You get what you see

This is my go to vegan restaurant in Budapest. It's hard to find a great non-fast food vegan place in the city that offers such a variety of dishes. I like that you can order small portions as well, so no food is wasted! You can bring your own food container for the to-go orders. The staff is quick, friendly and they speak English too. As I saw it is a dog friendly place. They offer a lunch menu (soup and main dish), 1 or 2 Indian dishes, hamburgers, salads, stews and toppings all vegan!

Pros: can order small portions, amazing desserts , you can add extra protein

Cons: main dishes sometimes lack protein

So affordable!

Very tasty, and great location.
This was my second time going here and it is very affordable, with tasty food too!
I'd definitely recommend visiting here.
We were also given free food at the end of the day too, so it didn't go to waste.

Pros: The price , Friendly staff, Tasty and filling food

Cons: Unusual opening times.

A rescue site !

I had been wandering around for 5-6 hours in Budapest and I was starting to get VERY VERY hungry as I hadn't had any lunch yet ... and then by some sort of miracle I saw this sign "Vega City". I went there and it was absolutely OK. Nothing special, but OK and the guy from the staff who I had to do with was very aimiable. Anyway, when you walk around for hours and get hungry AND you are vegan, then this sort of place is VERY VERY welcome !

I have been there again a couple of times and it is one of my favourite vegan restaurants in Budapest. There are always quite a lot of people dropping in at the same time as me !

Lunch place

we eat lunch at 3’o clock in the afternoon, two hours before they close and the small buffet which is arranged on your plate by the staff, was a bit empty to look at. maybe it was better to fill the food in smaller bowls. we got two dishes from the hot dish of the day. but the food was almost cold when we got it. we asked the staff when we arrived if it was possible to get hot food and they said yes. we were tired and hungry so we didn't complain.

Pros: Good Price

Cons: Cold food

Filling lunch

Good place for lunch, they offer daily menu and other options. We tried the daily menu and the pies, and we were satisfied with the flavors and the portion sizes.

Cafeteria style buffet

We really enjoyed our food here. It wasn’t entirely clear how the menu works, but we figured it out and had a lovely meal here. If you’re at the National Museum, this is a wonderful place for lunch.

Good food with lots of options

Buffet style restaurant. You choose what you want and they plate it for you. Every item has an individual price but they also have specials where for a certain price you get a certain number of options. Food was good, fast service, and nice staff.

Pros: Variety of options , Tasty

Leckeres Essen und gute Auswahl!

Ich habe zuerst mal in dem Bistro gegessen. Die Auswahl ist zunächst etwas überfordert und man muss verstehen, wie man sein Essen zusammenstellen kann. Ich hatte einen Burger, und er hat sehr lecker geschmeckt. Dazu ein Wasser und einen frisch gepressten Orangensaft. Alles zusammen hat zehn Euro gekostet. Das ist sehr günstig und preiswert.
Wer ein schnellen Snack möchte oder ein kleines Mittagessen braucht, sollte hier hingehen denn für eine kurze Mahlzeit. Zwischendurch ist es definitiv geeignet. Um nett abends essen zu gehen, sollte man sich aber eher eine andere Location suchen, da es hier etwas laut nicht so angenehm zum Speisen ist.

Pros: Sehr günstig, Lecker, Große Auswahl selbst zusammenstellen

Cons: Kompliziert beim auswählen , Nicht so angenehme Atmosphäre beim Essen

Great Buffet!

Great concept, great food!
You have a choice of weekly changing items, you can have a menu or just something that speaks to you. I had the soup and some potato casserole with eggplant. Fantastic! Recommend for a quick bite or a 3-course meal 😁
