Instant is a classic Budapest "ruin bar", except it is huge: it occupies the whole three-storey derelict building with its inner yard and all the apartments. Because of that Instant has the atmosphere of a squat house, and naturally young artists display their works in its many rooms with old furniture, different lighting and design. Here drinks are cheep, sandwiches are awful, and everyone seems to have a great time, especially with the concerts that start every night at 22:00.
