1074 Budapest, Dohány utca 84.
I was told that when the ‘Cultural Centre’ at Almássy tér still offered concerts now and again, the Colorado was an almost compulsory stop-by. No surprise, as there are very few better ways to spend an idle afternoon then to sit around, pint in hand, and watch the passers by. Now the little brother ‘Filter Klub’ tries to fill the void left after the cultural centre was closed. The Klub isn’t as popular, not as much fun to sit around, but still preserves some of the old atmosphere.
At the Colorado, Tuborg was on tap (although the menu promised Holstein as well, but they ran out of that). The order arrived at our table accompanied by a wide smile (both rarities), and as it began to rain, we were provided a table inside – probably to keep us a little longer.
The interior is a western saloon-type of place, not so welcoming and perfectly crowded. Perhaps it’s the football match broadcast, perhaps because people who couldn’t find other shelter, came in to the pub.
The prices speak for themselves; they quite high, that is.
Finally, a positive point, as we were leaving we discovered a CCTV-protected bike-parking lot.
