Pontoon has an amazing location with both upstairs and downstairs outdoor seating—perfect for soaking in the Budapest vibes. It might feel a bit like a tourist trap at first glance, but honestly, it’s well worth a visit. I had a tequila soda with lime—simple but really well made. You do have to give a deposit for the cup, but that’s pretty standard in the area and didn’t bother me. Chilled atmosphere, good drinks, and a killer view. Great for a relaxed drink by the water!
