The pub life of Pécs, the fifth largest city of Hungary #1

Király street is the main street and also the main pub street of Pécs - Pubtourist

Pécs, the fifth largest Hungarian city is worth to visit for many reasons. It has beautiful natural environment because of the Mecsek mountain range, it has a rich history (which is still in the air through the buildings and monuments), very charming small streets, a tidy downtown…what else? What else? Ahh, I almost forgot, there is a wide Continue Reading

I say a little prayer for the good, old Papucs (Pécs, Hungary)

I haven’t made any pub crawl in Pécs, in the fifth biggest city of Hungary (145.000 inhabitants) until few weeks ago. My journey there came like a bolt from the blue, after one of my old class mates, who lived there before, sent me this article about the closure of the famous, very traditional Papucs Continue Reading

About Me

I am a pubtourist from Budapest, Hungary. What does it mean? You can get close to it with the English words: barhopper or pubcrawler. The main thing is that I walk from pub to pub to explore, not the bottom of the next glass as first priority, but actually the next pub. I like these reflections of social life, which I think are more spontaneous and revealing than anything else. I believe that a city or a country draws the most complete and most honest picture of itself through the atmosphere of its various pubs and with the conversations there. The zero milestone and epicenter in my pubtour (in Hungarian we literally use this word) is Budapest. If you are a tourist or a new expat, you will find here a useful and unique guide to our pubs. Because I live here, I have the chance to do the most complete job on this scene. Although whenever i have the chance, I travel gladly outside the city or the country borders to get to know new worlds with the pubs in leading roles. When I am on a journey my real web-browsers or tourist guides are the pubs and the current guests are the search results.
