Get ready for a Sunday like no other on July 27, 2025, at the Crystal Imperial Hotel (Kristály Imperial Hotel) in Tata. This isn’t just any brunch—it’s a Friendship Day feast. Bring your best friend and treat them to a delicious plated breakfast in the stunning Baroque courtyard, with exclusive dishes created just for the occasion, accompanied by live music and the summer sun.
The Menu: Shareable Delights
The exclusive plate-service brunch menu promises both comfort food and unique flavors. Savor ham, cheese, and porcini toast with homemade ketchup; a gorgonzola frittata on an English muffin with bacon salad; French toast with basil, tomato, and mozzarella; pork knuckle tartare with pickled egg and marinated radish on toast; or minty pea hummus with roasted celery and quinoa. Vegan and allergy-friendly options are available—just mention your needs when you book.
Each guest gets to pick a dish from the brunch menu, plus enjoy a glass of juice and a hot drink (coffee or tea). All this for just $16 per person. But that’s not all—you’ll have a chance to win a custom-designed Friendship T-shirt for two, courtesy of the local gift shop Idea Bank (Ötlettár), with both friends’ names printed on it. Details on how to enter this fun giveaway are coming soon.
Wellness Treats and More
To make the day extra special, add relaxation to the mix. For only $4 per person, you get access to the hotel’s fully equipped Crystal Spa Relax wellness center: think jacuzzi, swimming pool, tepidarium, Finnish and infrared saunas, steam room, and salt chamber. Professional massage appointments can be pre-booked, or if you prefer, try the Aquatizer massage bed—15 minutes of bliss, no appointment needed. Bathrobes and towels are included at no extra charge.
How to Join
Participation is by reservation only. Choose your brunch slot: early birds can dine from 9 am to 11 am, while late risers can enjoy brunch from 11 am to 1 pm.
Historic Venue with Modern Comfort
The Crystal Imperial Hotel (Kristály Imperial Hotel), Hungary’s oldest operating hotel, stands elegantly in the heart of Tata. With a two-level underground garage, restaurant, wine bar, relaxation and medical center, plus a friendly staff, guests are guaranteed a memorable experience. The original brick-vaulted cellar is a top spot for private parties—birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, baptisms, reunions, and banquets—complete with foosball, darts, air hockey, billiards, and vibrant lighting, making it perfect for up to 60 guests.
For a taste of local history, don’t miss the Esterházy Restaurant (Esterházy Étterem)—a culinary haven where national heroes and literary legends once dined. Tata was already a gastronomic gem in the time of King Matthias (Mátyás), and its traditions are carried on in style.
