Kredenc+Hello Tourist - Balatonfüred
Blaha Lujza utca is the centre of nightlife in Balatonfüred, the street buzzing on summer nights. Kredenc expands onto it with a large terrace, where you can enjoy great wines. On the other side, Hello Tourist is also an open-air spot but with less generous opening hours. Check out Facebook before you head there to make sure there’s something going on – although, if it's a summer weekend, it’s probably a party.
