The cup

Independent roaster-cafe opened in 2014 at Veres Pálné utca 17, one of Budapest's first venues to roast and serve its own beans under the Mantra name. A La Marzocco Linea powers the espresso bar, with Chemex, AeroPress and V60 pour-overs available alongside it. Retail bags of Mantra house lots are stocked at the counter.
