Adorable little place! - Edit
The cafè is really cute and well decorated. The staff doesn't speak english really well so is hard to navigate through the menu. The prices though are incredibly cheap for good quality, and the raw cakes are a definitive must-try! Highly suggested!
Pros: Cheap, Cute, Delicious
Cons: A little out of the way

Leckeres Essen, unschlagbar günstig - Edit
Das gemütliche kleine Restaurant liegt hinter dem Burgberg. Es eignet sich ideal, um dort nach dem Besuch des Burgpalastes Mittag zu essen. Das Essen ist lecker, unschlagbar günstig und die Bedienung unheimlich nett. Die Karte ist nur auf ungarisch, das Personal kann aber englisch und z.T. auch deutsch.
Pros: Preise, Essen, Service

Super cute vegetarian restaurant in Buda - Edit
I went here three times this week for lunch because I was attending a conference near Deli train station and this was the closest vegan-friendly restaurant. The food was delicious!
The decor is really cute. It reminds me of an English tea house. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. They have free wifi, too.
For food, they offer one raw vegan plate and one cooked vegetarian plate every day for lunch. The days that I went, the raw plate was really good. It usually consists of a salad of chopped vegetables, some raw crackers, and some yummy raw side. The cakes are also raw and very tasty.
The prices can't really be beat. The daily menu includes the plate of your choice plus a small smoothie (probalby .2 liters), and cost 990 HUF, which is less than $5 at the moment. A piece of cake was around 400 HUF, I believe. The total for a filling meal with dessert was maybe 6 or 7 dollars. In the US, I estimate the same thing would have been over $20, because raw food isn't cheap.
The staff is friendly, but don't all speak perfect English. Fortunately, there probably isn't all that much you need to communicate, so it's not really a problem. They have displays of the daily dishes, so you can just point to the one you want, or say "vegan".
Pros: Price, Great atmosphere, Delicious raw food
Cons: Not 100% vegan, Cooked food is not typically vegan
