Beer gardens are opening! Augustiner was open today. One of my favourite Munich beer gardens - not too many tourists, nice shady atmosphere - and great beer and food.
Posted by: pootle at 2:09 am on 17.Mar.2004Yeah this biergarten is really good and easy to get to by MVV. Gets really busy just after knock-off time in the summer as there are so many office monkeys in the area, like me, who head out with colleague for a Mass or 3. Don't bother going into the building itself, Ugh - one of the worst "Gross Gastätten" I've had the bad luck to visit.
Posted by: grtho at 11:05 am on 18.Mar.2004Oh I like the Keller, the downstairs part was done out last year and it is really lovely, probably the only Bierkeller that you could take a date to (soft lighting included). I'm not so keen on the ground floor though. Was quite busy in there last night.
Posted by: Katrina at 11:11 am on 18.Mar.2004*Don't touch the ketchup!* I was in the Biergarten yesterday with friends. I was paying for three people and the 3rd person in my party was deciding if he wanted mustard or ketchup. He picked up those teeny packs they have next to the cashier and then put them immediately back down after deciding nah, he didn't want them. The lady insisted on charging us for them even though my friend did not even put them on his tray. Hey, 4 packets only cost 60 cents and I didn't want to create a scene. I was just amazed at her rudeness and unwillingness to take it off the bill. She had previously asked us to hurry up and decide what we wanted (I was trying to translate/explain what they had- Knödel, Haxe etc...) and now this! Awful service. Welcome to Germany.
Posted by: "nya" at 2:07 pm on 21.Sep.2004Was here five times in our one week visit to Germany. Sat with great locals and had great food. The rosted chicken was like nothing I've ever had in the states! I would recommend this place to anyone!
Posted by: "Elizabeth" at 7:20 pm on 28.Jun.2005We were here on 13th August, passing through on our way to Kirchberg In Tirol. We used to live in Munchen (10 years ago), so it was easy to find the biergarten (although I'll concede it was more by accident than design). Sadly, being their at about noon, the food was limited (no ribs! :<), but the beer was great and it only took a few minutes to be talking about ways to go back and live in Munich again... Great start to our holiday, too.
Posted by: "The Saxbys" at 11:32 am on 12.Sep.2005mmmmm - last post SHOULD have read. Sadly, being there at about noon, the food was limited (no ribs! :( ), but the beer was great and it was only a few minutes before we discussing ways of going back to live in Munich... Schuss!
Posted by: "The Saxbys" at 1:27 pm on 12.Sep.2005The foods only OK, no music and generally pretty crowded. But the beer is most definately the best. Edlestoff direct from wooden barrels with no pipes or CO2 in sight, just wonderful.
Posted by: "jc" at 4:28 pm on 20.Sep.2005Mostly the masses of beer they serve are slightly short measures but not enough to get people cross. Edelstoff out of the barrel should be good but the quality has taken a nosedive recently. I hope it will improve when the 2005 Oktoberfest is over. Food is quite expensive. Very attractive beer garden.
Posted by: "Roland" at 1:36 pm on 27.Sep.2005Can thoroughly recommend it. Had been there before... joined a TRAVEL AGENTS GROUP STAMMTISCH.
Posted by: "Paul von Munich" at 7:40 am on 22.May.2006Augustiner is the most delicious beer ..eva. The Helles is the best in Munich!
Posted by: vango at 2:42 pm on 20.Apr.2007We often spend time at this Bier Garten even while Wiesn is open. It offers a more quiet place to be for awhile, and still have the great biers of the Augustiner.
