a decent pizza in the summer time.

a cozy place very often full of interesting people. Artists often go here for a drink together with students and other young people. One of the only places where people like to stand and not only sit at tables.
In the same street I like also N.8 (a bit more calm) and Casa Tiff (much more calm, the movie fest HQ) for different moments.
Just in front of the place there is a also a club if you like longer nights ;)

Parks & Nature
if it's a sunny day I wouldn't leave Cluj before a walk in Cetatuie Park. Set This hotel in your maps and walk to there. It's an half hour walk with a nice landscape of the city. Looking the city you will see a green tongue in the middle: these are 3 parks which might be your next walk if you enjoyed your first one

you find easily taxis as well even if i prefer to use apps if I move with taxi (clever taxi for example) or uber. They locate you with gps and you don't need to speak at the phone.
