Eat, Drink, and Savor Balatonfüred
Want a taste of history? Local restaurants serve everything from Reform Era classics to plant-based contemporary dishes. Enjoy Mediterranean ambiance on a vine-covered terrace or savor fresh flavors at the oldest eateries in town, like Bergmann Confectionery (Bergmann Cukrászda), known since 1992 for both sweet and savory specialties made from time-honored family recipes.
Try the region’s best fish, sample renowned wines, and explore menus that change monthly to showcase the season’s freshest ingredients, thanks to top local chefs.

Baricska Tavern (Baricska Csárda), nestled among vineyards since 1811, remains true to its roots with regional cuisine but also embraces modern innovation. Panoramic terraces offer stunning lake views, making it as much a sanctuary for food, wine, and culture as it is a place to dine.
All This at Lake Balaton’s Beating Heart
Balatonfüred (Balatonfüred), the oldest spa and holiday town on the lake’s northern shore, draws visitors year-round for its unique climate and legendary atmosphere—the kind you feel most during warm summer nights, especially when live music fills the promenade.
Add to that wine tastings right at the source—most local wineries oversee every step from vineyard to bottle, especially the reds, which are barrel-aged and unfiltered for extra character. Pick up bottles at the town market or enjoy them in panoramic event halls overlooking the water.
Peter Rámek’s mega-concert is the perfect excuse to dive into all this and more. Just keep an eye on the schedule—organizers reserve the right to make changes. But one thing’s for sure: if you want to experience the real Balaton summer, you won’t want to miss it.
