Cafés

The Művész, VI Andrássy út 29, almost opposite the State Opera House, is a more interesting place to people-watch than Gerbeaud and has a better selection of cakes at lower prices. It is now open 24 hours a day.	The New York Café, VII Erzsébet körút 9-1 (metro: Blaha Lujza tér), has been a Budapest institution since 1895. The elegant turn-of-the-century décor glitters around the literati who still meet here.	The perfect place for coffee and cakes up in the Castle District is the crowded Ruszwurm, I Szentháromság utca 7 near Matthias Church. Two more good cafés on the Buda side are Angelika, I Batthyány tér 7 and the untouristy Café Déryné at I Krisztina tér 3.	JAZZ CAFÉ V. Balassi B. u. 25. T. 169-5506.
