The place

Prímás Pince is beneath the basilica hill, in cellars of almost 3,000 m² as old as the cathedral. The dining room occupies the brick vaults, and around it are a wine tunnel, a café with cakes made on the premises and a shop of Hungarian products. The cooking blends recipes from the Hungarian regions of the Carpathian Basin with contemporary technique.

When to go

Monday to Saturday from 11:00 to 21:00, with the kitchen from 12:00 to 20:00; Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00. It is the natural lunch on an excursion to Esztergom, between the basilica and the bridge. Book on its website at the weekend.

What to order: A meal beneath the vaults and, if you have time, a three-wine tasting in the tunnel.
