Very popular ruin bar in the Erzsébetváros district, one of the first bars founded which had the aim of keeping the original image of the houses, using second-hand furniture, creating an atmosphere that is reminiscent of a Mediterranean country where plants are integrated into the courtyard. The style of the place is eclectic, a little bohemian.
