Friday beer garden

What time are people getting down?

I'll prob be there about 6.15 or 30

I'll be ther about 7 so will Ian

Service was initially a little sketchy but they then stepped up a gear or two and it was fine.

Not sure about the East German setting of the place though, could feel myself getting more depressed whenever i went outside for a fag.

Walked in, stood by a table, little waiter bloke was there within seconds asking what I'd like to have. Liked the inside and would definitely go back again. Didn't try the food but there was plenty of it coming out and it looked like good bar food.

Another good night augmented by the street theatre and platform cabaret. Just say no to drugs.

No poblems getting in and out via Chekpoint Charlie but I think I might have been followed as far as Fasanengarten by the Stasi.

It's a pity I couldn't make it last night; my husband turned up unexpectedly so I was otherwise detained.

Sounds like it was a good night?

Now I'm confused (again). Are there 2 Keydecks or were you on a Meetup tour last night?

Well ... that's Giesing for you. A nice reminder that there are more facets to Munich than just schicki-micki and sleepy suburbia. And I hear the people on the terrace did indeed encounter an interesting local resident, like I predicted.

As regards Feuerberg, I found the service quick, efficient, and friendly. Didn't have any food, just two beers. Stayed till the bitter end along with two others, and no problems with unpaid drinks or the like. A good, fun night.

Dear all,
This week the Friday Geer Garden will convene at the Löwenbräu at Stiglmaierplatz
The forecast isn’t too bad, if it rains in the afternoon don’t be put off, that’s completely normal. 


We’ll be down the back (as shown on the map) unless the weather turns completely inclement then we’ll be under the shelters near the side entrance.

There are quite a few first class Curry houses nearby for later.

Don't forget to look out for the Famous Orange flag, made by Space Technology.

See you there,

Gwyn

Scarily tempting since it's so close and easy to get to...

Never been here , even though I have been in Munich for forever, yup! I'll be there.

A few weeks ago the mark on the map was (and I dare say still is) under the arm of a hulking great crane next to a whopping great big building site hole
Cooooooool!!! I like cranes

I've been inside, but never in the garden . . . Nice atmosphere I'll be there around 6:30pm.

Good thing the Netherlands aren't playing on Friday. That little orange flag wouldn't have had a chance of being noticed.

Top spot..a real taste of German service. Hostile ugly waitresses...beers thrown at you rather than put on the table !!

maybe its just me...see you there !!!

smallest pint I've had in Munich too, although Hirschgarten comes a close second...looking forward to it chaps
P.S. the crane's still there...I got off at the wrong station on the way to Ruen Thong...mmmmmmm tasty

Lets hope we're out in the beergarden with self service. You have to spill your own beer there.

Quite possibly the worst beer garden in Munich. The last two times we went there the service was disgraceful, for once I'm glad I can't make it!

Sadly i agree with Allers but i will be there.

Not my favorite beer either, but a classic Munich establishment. I will be there, especially since I live right across the street from it...

I imagine that despite all the winging we will have a great turn out - again. We need to go to venues like Löwenbräu because they are central and have a good chance of being warmer than other beer gardens in Munich, they also offer an indoor option, which I hope we won’t be exercising. Maybe a photo of semi naked people would have distracted you from trashing a place that is essentially typically Munich.

Who's trashing it?

Just an opinion eh?

What is wrong with it? OK there is now pfand on the glasses. But in the self service area there is nothing much to differentiate it from any other beergarden! Or is it the lack of a kids play area?

That's the best part! Just kidding, I like kiddies . . . Not used to getting drunk around a playground though

that's not true. whenever i go there, i have a good time.

edit: also it has a new 'Pächter' now, same as Mentarschwaige. they are still renovating the old beer hall. the big hall is already done up and looks really nice.

No pfand last night or last week when I was there. Unless it was included in the €7,50 price in which case that makes me the idgit. There were service folks collecting the glasses.

This is my comment from the last time we went there. As I said, I can't come anyway, but if I could, I wouldn't! Enjoy yourselves folks, I'm sure next week will be somewhere great!

So you had absolutely no problem with the self service area then? Which was what I asked.

The self service wasn't open, if I remember correctly, and the time before they closed it early which meant we had to go inside to fetch our beer and the waitresses wouldn't serve us, until we complained and the manageress forced them to. Not good! But I'm sure you'll all have fun anyway and will hardly miss me!

You do remember correctly, the self-service bit was shut on that occasion. Building works or summat.

The weather looks like it will be good. The Rain radar over France shows no incoming un-weather. Shame Allerhausen will not be there to judge the self service area.

it's new managment, new staff etc. which makes it a 'new' place.
and we will have fun especially with the croation turkey game.

Of course we will miss you... There will be more beer to buy !...But i was there last night and according to the plan we will be sitting on top of the tv ( Line Wand ) what ever you call it...If thats the case we could be asking for trouble and be made into siskebabs ...or was that only there due to the german game?

Turkeys are not just for christmas you know.

Ah! Maybe we need to revise our seating arrangemets.

What ever happens if you are there first, DON'T sit in the service area. Take the benches.

If I would be given the choice of jumping up and down anytime when a turkish player shoots
towards the Kroatian goal or doing something "sophisticated", I would take the sophisticated thing.

I got something to do this evening and will try to join the group afterwards.

Ah, the game. Now I get why the guy at Lebenslust asked if we were coming tonight as well. :confused:

Hm, decisions, decisions...

It’s Friday. Throat dry.

Sweaty Bodys. Why do I ?

drink so hard? mass overflowing.

Where am I going?

Ah. Escape is here.

FBG TT. Friends. Beer.

Sat morn,splitting skull.
man there is no lull.

Wish I could find a happy medium
but then life would be a cursing tedium

Well how poetic Eagle...Do we get more after a few mass´s.Or will you be joining rival groups

Gonna be pretty early there today, should be a larf and a harf!

'Twas fun . . . met new people . . . got vibed by the people sitting behind us whenever we stood up . . . I think SeaKing actually got a kick out of pissing them off

Nuffink yet?

Or waiting for weather reports? Btw, Auntie Beeb says 24 degrees and sunny intervals.

Intervalled with what?

Dunno, clouds i guess.

So where to this Friday?

Ok Got it now! Booking larger numbers gets tricky you see.

On Friday we're in the Saal of the Max Emanuel Brauerei from 7pm (Earlier if sunny) Adalbertstrasse 33
This is the big room by the beergarden. We're booked in the name Pooh Bear stupidly.

I'm trying to get them to give high tables nerar the bar in the Saal. We'll see if that works out.
If it is suddenly sunny we will be sitting outside somewhere. The lady assured me that there is no football on.
All are welcome. Call or SMS me when you get there if you feel the need. Otherwise juist come along.

I thought the Saal was used for Salsa dancing in friday nights?

Good venue, like it.

Excellent, a place I've never been to, I think. Let's hope for good weather.

Don't let that stop you from branding it the worst beergarden in the world though!

It seems the Saal has been modified. Take a look at the pictures on their site.
I will not be salsa dancing on Friday. I might get the old air guitar out and make a complete twit of myself. (Who said "again"?)
