Restaurant cuisine
Most often, people come here for a cup of coffee with great desserts because the pastry shop has a very convenient location. We recommend trying strudel and a Shomloy galushka, which is a typical Hungarian dessert. It is served in original jars.
But in addition to sweet, there are curious treats from the abbey:
- Father Gellért's herbs.
- Herbal liquors of King András and Queen Anasztazia.
- Beer of the Tihany Abbey.
The establishment can boast not only of infusions and desserts. It is worth trying the food of the Benedictine Abbey. After all, the monks have baked cakes, enjoyed coffee and invented a variety of infusions and wines for a long time. Find out more at the Abbey Museum.
