Anker't

Sobre este lugar Anker't

Anker't is one of the 7th District's most beloved ruin bars — a sprawling courtyard and multi-room venue on Paulay Ede Street that has been operating since 2013 and has developed a reputation for eclectic programming that includes regular LGBTQ+ events. On specifically gay nights, the crowd shifts distinctly queer; on mainstream nights, the venue remains broadly tolerant and liberal in the way that Budapest's ruin bar culture tends to be. The architecture is the standard ruin bar aesthetic taken to an attractive extreme: an open courtyard surrounded by multi-story buildings, string lights overhead, mismatched furniture, and the kind of improvised beauty that pre-war Budapest building stock enables when it is treated with imagination rather than demolition. For LGBTQ+ visitors to Budapest who want to experience the ruin bar scene beyond the tourist circuit, Anker't is the best starting point. Check the event calendar before visiting — when an LGBT+ night is on, it is one of Budapest's better evenings.
