Coffee specialities in New York Café – a coffee for every mood
Everyone likes to start the morning with a good cup of coffee. Sipping that essential cup of morning coffee gives us the opportunity to collect our thoughts, get ourselves together and truly wake up. We usually like to drink our coffee the way we’re used to. Coffee is the embodiment of passion, thrill and style – some will even say it is a reflection of our personality. This is, of course, less supported by scientific evidence than by careful observation. From time to time, we do indeed choose a cup of blackness based on our current mood. As our moods are liable to change several times during a day, it doesn’t hurt to schedule the busiest part of our day in close proximity to an excellent coffee house. If we crave a special treat, why not do it in the most special of environments: at the most beautiful café in the world!

Iconic dishes – wiener schnitzel
Wiener schnitzel, this extremely simple yet delicious dish is on the menu of almost every restaurant. It is easy to prepare at home, but if you want to have the real Wiener schnitzel, keep to the original recipe – you can only use veal, since if you use any other meat, is it not Wiener schnitzel anymore, but breaded cutlet.

The 100-year-old nyugat bar
The bar upstairs with its dim light is one of the cosiest places in the New York Palace. It offers a view of the Salon Restaurant, a part of the New York Café, and the lobby of the hotel: look around while you are sipping your coffee, have a nice lunch or dinner, and enjoy the piano music and the attention you get from us. The Nyugat Bar had seen some hard times before it became this peaceful place, and its misfortunes started in the previous century.

Romantic treat in a digitalized world
A lot of things go into a convincing time travel experience. Atmosphere, tastes, lights and music. These are the elements that make us believe, albeit temporarily, that we have left behind the world of incessant rush. In the New York Café, it is still possible today to be immersed in the bourgeois feel of the 19th and 20th centuries. To make the experience even more special, we can even send a postcard from our table to our loved ones.

Wedding ceremony and party – deluxe version
In Hungary, weddings are traditionally held in summer. The wedding season kicks off when warm weather arrives in spring, and it goes on until autumn. One wedding ceremony is held after the other in registrar’s offices, and often there are no dates available. However, you can avoid this hassle, and your peace of mind you can achieve is priceless. We wish that couples could have a really special celebration on their most beautiful day. If the young couple doesn’t insist on following the tradition of summer weddings, they can have a solemn and elegant ceremony without rush, and a wedding party that meets every need at the Most Beautiful Café in the World - moments to cherish and remember as they set out on a life together.
