Káptalantóti’s Liliomkert Market fires up every Sunday in 2026, drawing crowds to one of the Balaton Uplands’ prettiest spots in the Káli Basin at Petőfi u. 1, 8283 Káptalantóti. Biologist-engineer Harmathy Ildikó dreamed it up from a casual chat among friends, and now it’s a national hit where locals and far-flung fans flock for fresh goodies. Show up hungry—it’s impossible not to devour samples while weaving between stalls. Dive into cloth-covered baskets of bacon-and-cheese pogácsas, steaming caraway-seed kiflis piled high, or lángos fresh from the oven slathered in sour cream. Open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. all year, from January 1 to December 31, kicking off March 15, 2026.
What’s on Offer at Liliomkert
The magic stems from the personal vibe: producers and crafters chat directly with buyers, letting you taste everything on the spot and snag top-quality stuff straight from the makers. Expect a massive spread of homemade and artisan wares—foods like homemade cheeses, fresh cracklings, hams, syrups, jams, fresh and dried fruits, bakery treats, cakes, and strudels in all flavors; drinks including homemade syrups, pálinkas, and local wines; crafts such as wood carvings, handcrafted ornaments, lavender- and rose-scented white ceramics, and one-of-a-kind gifts; plus antiques like old treasures, books, and quirky finds. Crowds peak in the mornings, so brace for bustle. Pack cash—cards aren’t accepted everywhere.
Nearby Stays and Eats in Káptalantóti
Nestled among four hills at the village edge, our guesthouse offers three apartments with private kitchens and baths. Lake Balaton (Balaton) is just 4 km away, with Badacsonytomaj, Salföld, and Mindszentkálla next door—perfect for hikes, then evening grills and wine. On Tóti Hill’s southwest slope, a family plot since 2010 hosts Istvándy Csilla’s kitchen alongside a restaurant, soccer field, playground, and tons of space for family fun. The Yellow House (Sárga Ház) is your quiet escape from the madness: 200 m² split into three 70 m² units—Pergola-Ház, Bunker, and VinCellár—each with living room, dining area, bedroom, bathroom, and tea kitchen. There’s also the separate Kivi-ház summer kitchen, whipping up dishes from our veggie garden.
Volcanic Wines from Sabar Hill
