Lovely Romanian restaurant in the heart of the Old City. The architecture of the building is impressive, the menu is authentic, the food is delicious and it's not expensive either. Not to be missed!
Georgi IlievAugust 27, 2016The place is a must if you visit Romania. It's like a true historical restaurant from mediaval Count Dracula times. The best atmosphere you can get in all the country with amazing dishes and music.

Violeta SlavovaSeptember 17, 2016Very authentic place, a must visit in Bucharest! Nice interior and garden, good selection of beers, amazing food! Try the papanasi for dessert!
Evangelos ZJanuary 12, 2017Very nice architecture, very traditional. Food was good enough the only negative would be the service. The staff was very quick and efficient, but obviously tired enough to present a smile to us..
- Bruno GremezJuly 18, 2018This restaurant offers traditional Romanian cuisine in a formidable setting: a wonderful fin-de-siecle building in the historical center of Bucharest. A group of gypsies plays music every evening.
Sam LopezJuly 12, 2017This is where all tourists go in Old Town. It has good food, music, and dancers. It's a busy, busy place. it's not the kind of place for a quiet conversation.
Esteban TorresSeptember 26, 2018Great place. Building is beautiful and the food is great.Tried the pork belly (seen in the picture).The unpasteurized beer is interesting; but not amazing flavor. Still nice to try something different
Touristic. Always always full. But it worths a stop. Service is very good and super fast despite the crowd. Food is not bad. Inside is amazing
Vassilis NMay 5, 2016Excellent interior, fantastic atmosphere! Go until 16:00 and enjoy the menu for only 5€! Great food, many choices and good staff!
Stefan AlexandruOctober 19, 2014The best place! Yes, most of the time is really crowded but you'll love it! The interior design is awesome, the beer and food is great. It's like they say, old but gold. Bon appetit!
Vit LustinecApril 20, 2019Place was good, maybe too big, looks like food factory, but nice atmosphere. Great starters & excelent wine. Dissapointed with my t-bone, looking good but a bit chewy. Huge deserts - 430g doughnut :)
Burcu Gizem GülApril 11, 2019We did not make any reservation, food is tasty - tried knight’s dish - reasonable prices -I love desserts but traditional one which is romanian doughnuts, not definietly for my taste-so dont reccomend
Clark GilliesNovember 14, 2021Thought it would be a over priced tourist trap, and surprisingly very nice. Good beer, excellent food and very reasonable prices
Cihan SApril 7, 2015A must seen in Bucharest, especially for lunch as it is not overcrowded. Nice dishes, well preserved. A nice mixture of lpcals and tourists. And it is allowed to smoke, whatelse do I need :)
Alison JollyOctober 3, 2016A must-visit for tourists. Great selection of Romanian food. You have to try the locally brewed beer and I would also recommend the Romanian soup. The service was a bit so-so though.
Mustafa CavusogluJanuary 26, 2018I have been going to Caru cu Bere for many years. It was a great restaurant with it authentic soul and delicious and original food.Nowadays, I can not find the same taste. And it's commercialized.
Danilo MazziSeptember 5, 2017Amazing atmosphere and great time for your visiting Bucharest. You should try Papanasi which is a giant donut covered in Jelly and sour cream! Amazing dessert!
Lesley MathewsMarch 2, 2017Food was really good! I thought the prices were affordable and great! Service was amazing! And these Romanian Doughnuts are a must try! If you like cream cheese

Milan RusimovJanuary 4, 2017It's an outstanding place in the middle of the Old Town. I was impressed with architecture and kindness of the workers. This is a must see place in Bucharest.
- Roger BrulandSeptember 5, 2016A must to enjoy the "belle epoque" city Bucuresti was before communism. Good food, fast and friendly service. Big beers, knuckke an sauerkraut. Romanian classical dishes. Order a lot of garlic paste!
All the food is excellent but if you have a sweet tooth like me :) the chocolate cake and cheese cake are amazing, also the Romanian dessert papanasi.
Purlen Uzunogulları İmerDecember 9, 2015The place is amazing, you feel like you are in a cathedral, very peacefull. if you go between 13:00-18:00 try lunch menu, its very cheap and good and the portions are big.

Anna BalanvskaJanuary 29, 2017You like to try authentic Romanian cuisine? Go there! It is great place to visit, must go in Bucharest. Great food, interior is up level.
Absolutely the best traditional restaurant in Bucharest with very authentic athmosphere 👌🙂
Gianmarco TozzoliDecember 10, 2016The oldest pub in Bucharest! You have to try for lunch or dinner 🍴 student menù every lunch on the week, cheep and good!- Andre GonJune 11, 2019Like a beergarten. Very friendly staff, good and hearty food. Better not to sit at tbe basement, because its damp and bad acoustic. Outside its way better. Great place for meat and beer!
LetiDecember 8, 2016Good atmosphere. Romanian food. Pork with mamaliga and sousages! And for dessert 'Papanasis'!
Bünyamin BeyJune 10, 2019Best Romanian restaurant we’ve been. And we’ve been in many. The place is very beautiful and all dishes very excellent. Additionally the prices are really moderate for such a wenn known place.
Iulia AndreeaNovember 3, 2016I love that it has kept the magic of Bucharest's old times.its architecture is impressive.the food is very tasty and you get to enjoy it in such an authentic atmosphere.- UntravelledPathsMarch 10, 2014We recommend stopping at the bar for a beer (very, very good beer here) and soaking up the atmosphere. Go for Romanian food. Super cheap. Read more
Joy 🍀March 14, 2015Beautiful architecture, crowded place, make sure you'll make a reservation before, otherwise prepare to wait, authentic music and dance program, I have reserve regarding the food and service.
NesJanuary 24, 2018This is probably the most famous traditional Romanian restaurant in the country. The shows start around 10:30pm and you can attend the crowd that dance with the dancer
Nina NextasyApril 16, 2014CONSIDERED TO BE THE BEST TRADITIONAL RESTAURANT IN BUCHAREST WITH A REASON. TRIED HERE LOTS OF THINGS, INCLUDES MAIN COURSES AND DESSERTS - EVERYTHING WAS REALLY GREAT & NATIONAL. MUST TRY!!!
Alina CiorganJuly 13, 2015Come here for traditional romanian food & beer. New lunch menu with lots of choices for 20 lei. Service is excellent.
Cornelia ArdeleanuJanuary 10, 2017Very good traditional dishes and cheap lunch menus until 18:00 (5€ - soup, main course and desert). The architecture is beautiful and the stuff is very friendly.
🍀🐾Lütfiye🐾🍀February 13, 2017Meat, servis, vine, salad was very good👍Waitress was so kind and cocerned.Meat was very good baked.
Hector CmDecember 18, 2012Traditional place. I ordered Ciorba de Legume and pork ribs and it were very good. However I saw a pork leg in the next to table and that it's the dish. Their beer Caru cu Bere is standard. A must.
Ulisses CapatoAugust 7, 2018I advise the T-bone, Delicious! But do not forget to order some side dish. The house wine in any variation (red, white or rose) also wonderful!
Alexandros MessisSeptember 1, 2016Very nice traditional plates. During summer tables outside too!!! Inside very nice ambience. Decoration excellent. Also tables on the basement!!! Crowded. No reservations!- Best traditional Romanian restaurant in Bucharest. Both locals and tourists love this place, food is great, service is professional and food is ready very quickly even if the place is full.
Dee ✨August 2, 2016View walking towards the restaurant. Restaurant is huge! Historical. Service was good and finally roast duck was my favorite
Mary KoOctober 28, 2016Average service. Good food. Fantastic ambience. Worth going for the experience alone. Get a table in the main dining area or upstairs.
Andreea FodorMarch 4, 2015You must book a table in advance because it's very crowded. Tasty traditional Romanian food, friendly waiters and entertaining atmosphere due to the music and the dancers.- Lara PMay 17, 2018Good traditional food, best to go for weekday lunch, it’s a great value for 24 lei. They have live music and in the evening there are dance performances.
José Arturo CipriánApril 7, 2018Fantastic place for a taste of Bucharest. The pork is amazing and the chocolate cake is to die for.
Takis KarvelisMarch 5, 2013Very noisy and they give you the impression that you delay eating and you keep the table from the next to come .... but is a must and you must visit once. Great house beer by the way :)
