This cafe/drinks bar at the bottom of the steps leading up to castle's Dobó Bastion is in a huge Turkish-style tent – a marquee really – with copper coffee and teaware, sofra (those low-lying tables so popular in the Near East) and carpets also from that region. Remove your shoes before entering – under pain of death if not.
