We found this place by accident, and decided to have lunch and a few drinks. Really lovely food and the beer (original,dunkel and Weiss) were superb. The ladies had Hugo cocktails, which went down nicely. The weather was good so we could sit outside, even the inside of the building is impressive. Toilets good. Our waitress was very smiley and happy to help us.
I really didn't enjoy my meal. One of us had to wait for her beer for no particular reason and it was poured badly. The place itself is quite nice. Asking for a tip is also something that I consider a bad manner.
Extremely inefficient:getting coins to return glasses and nobody looks where you put the glasses. Order one place, pay at another boot. But the drafts are excellent and a lovely place to sit.

Reviews

The Biergarten in Munich offers an incomparable atmosphere with first-class beer and tasty Bavarian cuisine. The staff is friendly, but there are occasional crowded rooms and longer waiting times during peak hours. Some reviewers praised the self-service option for quick drinks and food pick-up, while others criticized the service quality and behavior of certain staff members. Despite mixed reviews, visitors highlighted the authentic German atmosphere, spacious layout compared to other places in Munich, and recommended it as a must-visit spot near the main station.

We went to the outdoor, get yourself an beer area on a quiet Sunday afternoon. There is also a service section of this garten, but we did not go there. The park is lovely and if you get a nice seat under the trees, you can stare at the flowers while you sip away. I enjoyed my time and would return for a nice park day. Enjoy~
