Full description 210 words

SideQuest is a gaming bar in the heart of Budapest, in the city's lively seventh district. The venue has been home to gamers since 2017, first as InGame Bar and then as Perspective Bar, and relaunched as SideQuest in April 2026, when a game developer who worked on Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption II joined forces with two amazing partners. Each of them brings something different to the table, which leaves plenty of room for new projects. Everything in the bar is free to play: game stations run indie titles from Hungary and around the world alongside retro classics, with up to four players on a single screen, and there's a wall of board games, darts, table football, beer pong and Tap Quest, an arcade cabinet running the bar's own game. The drinks list ranges from beers on tap and some of the best bottled craft beers in Hungary to gamer-themed cocktails, wine and plenty of non-alcoholic options. SideQuest hosts game nights, tournaments, pub quizzes and regular game-developer meetups, and runs a free membership programme where guests earn XP, level up, collect medals and unlock perks with every visit. Much of what's inside, from the game launcher to the arcade cabinet, was built by the team itself.

Using the logo

  • Use the supplied files, never a screenshot or a redrawn version.
  • Leave clear space around the logo, at least the height of the beer mug on every side.
  • Scale it in whole multiples where you can, so the pixels stay crisp.
  • Use the icon on its own when space is tight, for example as an avatar.
  • Don't recolour, stretch, rotate or add shadows, outlines or gradients.
  • Don't place it on a busy photo or a background with too little contrast.
  • Don't smooth or blur the pixel art when resizing.
  • Don't combine it with other logos in a way that implies a partnership without asking us.

Brand colours

Slate blue is our main colour, used as the background behind the logo; the rest of the palette comes from the logo itself. Click a swatch to copy its hex code.
