Andechser am Dom - Weinstr. 7, Munich, Germany
A traditional Bavarian "kneipe". They have a smallish covered terasse at street level. Football is shown here (on a small screen TV!) and it's usually packed during big matches with the crowd spilling out onto the street. They also have a street café in the Summer - directly beneath the Frauenkirche cathederal. Which is nice.

A schicki micki seeing and being seen place in town. It's a high society place, where, even in winter, they sit outside just to make sure they are seen. Age average 45-65 years there.
Posted by: bubblylady at 8:40 am on 14.Feb.2004I drank the Helles in there last Sunday and it was very good for a change. The quality of the Hell beer there seems to vary (I guess because of turnover). I like to sit in the room that is half-open to the elements and shiver there on winter weekend afternoons.
Posted by: "Roland" at 2:37 pm on 19.Oct.2005Andechser am Dom is at a great location in between the Augustiner and Ned Kellys, with good food and great Helles.....be warned thought that the outside patrons are automatically served the 11.5% alcohol Helles because as the waiter noted to us "its cold out". Does get packed and the crowd looked kinda upitty but sitting outside under the heat lamps in a smoke free space made up for it. Plus they have a decent sized flatscreen on one side....oh and they will charge you for the basket of bread they drop off at your table.
Posted by: "Dave" at 9:30 am on 15.Nov.2006I agree that the beers here are great! I just want to point out that "Stammwürze" (original wort/gravity) is _not_ synonymous with percentage of alcohol. The original wort of Andechser Helles is 11.5; this beer contains 4.8% alcohol, which is hardly strong. If you want an amazing beer which also packs a punch, try Aventinus Eisbock at Weißes Brauhaus im Tal. A gorgeous beer, it has 12% alcohol. :-) OK, beer class is now over. Enjoy the brews at Andechser - they're all spectacular!
