Booking the Pub Crawl

What are Ruin Bars?

The ruin bars of Budapest have turned abandoned historical apartment buildings into quirky and cozy apartment / art studio style pubs and bars. You may be sitting on a sofa, a tyre, or a bathtub, sipping a drink in a tiny room with a foosball table, a cupboard filled with meandering house plants, or a larger hall with a stage featuring an indie band. The walls may feature graffiti, communist memorabilia, disused vinyls and up-cycled industrial waste. Each square metre has the potential to come as a surprise or make you feel at ease.

Yes, ruin bars are absolutely stylish, fun and vastly popular (highlighted in leading newspapers incl. The Time magazine travel section).

Prices:

• €16 per person 
• €33 per person with Drink package: 1-hour unlimited drinks (beer, wine, rum/vodka/gin, mixers)

BOOKING

Fun Challenges

Have you heard of Bingo? Well, this is not the Bingo your granny plays, we can assure you that. Each guest receives a Bingo card at the very beginning of the night but all the 25 numbers on the cards are associated with crazy challenges.

Crawlers can earn points and make friends by completing 5 challenges by fulfilling the insane and immensely funny tasks while the collected points can be redeemed for prizes at the very end of the night.

Challenges can be easy and pleasant, like getting a kiss from a handsome stranger, a lot harder or maybe lunatic, such as drinking from a shoe or licking someone in the face. Challenges may include drinking while hand standing, building a human pyramid.
