Zoo Café - Zoo Café

This place is all about interaction with all sorts of animals and the ambient, so don't expect to have a feast here. The menu is pretty basic, but the coffee is really nice. They are really busy, we had to book 2 days in advance, for a stay of an hour and a half, but it was definitely worth it. I rate this place two turtles ??, seven cats ?‍⬛??‍⬛?‍⬛?‍⬛??‍⬛ and one bunny?.

We really liked everything, from the animals (they bring you different species every 5-10 minutes and explain how to treat them) to the food (we thought it would be expensive for the type of place, but it wasn’t!). We suggest to reserve days before

This place was the best! We luckily got a table even though we didn’t book (I did check online and couldn’t find anything about booking a table so assumed it was a walk in!) The food was really nice too! The staff were friendly and knowledgable about the animals and how to hold them which was really informative and interesting. We got to hold 3 different animals which was amazing and such a new experience. It was super exciting. Loads of cats were walking around which you were able to stroke too. The music playing was also really fun and up to date and some popular ones from Tik Tok. I’d definitely recommend this place!

It was Awesome!!!! Every 15 min a pet was brought to the table, the staff told some info about the pet like its name and whether it need to be on hands or can be on the table. Food and drinks were great. We make a reservation :) We absolutely will come again!!

Make sure you have a reservation (it makes sense to have one, because of such high demand). We simply sent an email one day earlier and got the response really quick (in an hour). We had such a good experience in the cafe. We loved the concept although not sure how animals like the whole carrying around all day long and meeting a lot of people. The drinks are not the best, but just fine. The staff was friendly. Must see if you are in Budapest!

Great idea! Seems like the animals are well-taken care of and each has its piece of heaven in the cafe. You will get instructions on how to handle each animal with care. Great way to learn about some unique spices and maybe get your reptile phobia under control :’) + there are cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs as well! Prices are more than fair! Make a reservation!

Nice experience, but I didn't like the smell of the place and the cats in the place where the food is served. Although there are disinfectants on the tables, they didn’t look clean to me. The rabbit peed on the table, the lizard pooped in friends hand, everything was cleaned immediately, but I still couldn't order food in such a place. We booked in advance and arrived 30' earlier, but they didn't let us in before the appointment. Coffee was OK, but poor internet connection.

A much more interactive experience than anticipated! The staff brings the animals to your table, introduces them by name and explains how to interact with them. DO *listen carefully*! One look away and the bunny WILL flip your coffee and the dragon lizard WILL try to run off the table. During an 1-1.5 h stay you'll meet around five animals of different kinds (3 reptiles, 2 mammals in our case). You can also walk around, look at all the others, and appreciate the massive fluffy cats (each gets 100 points from me). The animals look well catered for and are held in good conditions (large terrariums/enclosures with a lot of entertainment). Because there are so many, they can "work" on rotation—for each booking slot different animals are "on duty" which means they don't get too scared or tired of being in constant motion and contact with humans. Booking probably essential on the weekends since the place is very popular, and quickly gets busy. One observation: the music is strangely loud and upbeat for a place that asks guests for quietness not to disturb the animals too much. The menu almost doesn't matter since you probably only come there for the animals. "Consumption is obligatory", but you will find something, the selection of drinks is wide.
