Budapest Ruin Bars | Night Out In Hungary

Ruin bars or ruin pubs are the cornerstone of Budapest nightlife. These local spots are very unique and you should visit at least one to see what it’s like. This video tours you around seven of the city’s most popular, including the original that started the whole scene. Ruin bars began in the early 2000s when young people in Budapest were looking for places to go out and have a drink without spending a fortune. This led to abandoned buildings and empty lots being filled with old furniture and odds and ends and turned into makeshift cheap bars. The ‘ruins’ of the surroundings is what led to the name. There are lots of ruin bars and they all have a distinct feeling that sets them apart from each other.
