What we’re about
Welcome to the Silent Book Club Budapest!
This group is for anyone interested in reading a good (e-)book with a cup of coffee/tea and among like-minded people.
Here we don't have a designated book to complete for a deadline, only a pleasant environment for reading your current favourite book, and sharing your impressions of it if you wish.
The meetings are in person, mostly in a Café, with a simple (usually two-hour) agenda:
- half an hour for introduction of you and your chosen book
- one hour for quiet reading
- half an hour for sharing what you have read, impressions, etc.
Whether you are a trained reader, who seeks for community, an eager novice, who wants to make reading a habit, or just someone, who wants to slow down and enjoy the present for a bit, you are at the right place!
So grab your book and join us!

Hello everyone,
This week, due to popular demand, we are hosting two groups simultaneously on Margaret Island: an English-language group and a Hungarian-language one.
This event page is for the English-language discussion group.
Silent Book Club is about reading among like-minded people, quietly. If you love reading and are looking for a welcoming community, join us!
IMPORTANT: The optional discussion at the end of the event will be held in English. If you would prefer to join the Hungarian-speaking group, please look for the other event on our page and sign up there.
Location & Meeting Point: This week's meetup will be on the lovely Margaret Island. Our joint meeting point will be at the Musical Fountain. Look for people with books in their hands.
From there, we'll split into our two groups and find comfortable, grassy spots nearby. Just look for a group of people with books!
What to bring:- Your current book.
- A blanket to sit on.
- Any drinks or snacks you'd like to enjoy.
Here is the agenda:
- 14:00-14:30 – Welcome and introductions. We'll gather at the meeting point before splitting into our English and Hungarian groups.
- 14:30-15:30 – Quiet reading hour.
- 15:30-16:30 – Optional discussions in English.
We look forward to seeing you!
