At the southern end of City Park, Kertem is a wonderful beer garden, filled with multicoloured chairs and trees strung with fairy lights. By day it's an easy-going oasis full of couples and families; by night it's a great place to grab a beer and a burger (from 1500Ft) and listen to live music (hosted on weekend evenings).
