Altmünchner Gesellenhaus in München

Good and plentiful food, fast service, clean place

Food took 40 minutes to arrive on a midday on a weekday, taste was ok, so was the price, but quantities were petite...

Very good service and delicious food! Keep it up! I'd love to come back!

Bavarian inn with Bavarian national food and drinks. Lunch menu (e.g. Wednesday schnitzel with fries €9.90. Light beer €4.5)

Good German food at fairly modest prices. Pleasant and quiet environment. Unlikely "Italian" dishes but obviously excellent beers

This traditional restaurant is centrally located on the Stachus, but somewhat hidden in a side street, behind the former Kaufhof. A little inconspicuous from the outside, behind the entrance there is a large bar with an adjoining room and a beer garden in the back yard. The decor is traditional but very subtle, without the usual knick-knacks on window sills or on the wall. You feel comfortable here from the first moment. There is an extensive food and drink menu on which everyone will find something to suit their needs. Our Cordon Bleu and the Bergsteiger Schnitzel tasted very good. The portion was also generous. In terms of price, this restaurant stands out from the surrounding locations. The price/performance ratio is right here. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We'll definitely come back.

Good food fast and friendly staff. Gladly again

Delicious Bavarian staples and cold beer. Love the decor and tavern vibe, this is a must visit in Munich.

I asked very explicitly if the water was free before I ordered it and they said yes. Once I ordered, they charged me four dollars for a cup of water.

Best food so far in Germany on our trip

We've tried several German cuisine restaurants and this for us ranked the best. My partner loved the steak with dried onions Nothing that blew my palate but I like my vegetarian dish - creamy mushroom with bread dumpling. It's like Campbell soup with matza balls. The pretzel wants great. Maybe because it was the end of the day and it's been sitting there the whole day. The apple strudel was just ok. We had a better one at a different restaurant.

Second time of eating here. Relaxed unfussy Bavarian fare with mostly locals, which can't be a bad sign.

Super nice, courteous staff. Very attentive and yet not intrusive. The food is freshly prepared when ordered and all dishes were very, very tasty.

Passable food. Not stellar but good and came quick. The server smiled....how odd. We found out he was not local....we applauded his daring in breaking protocol. Very good coffee. We would come back.

Everything was very bad, the service couldn't speak German, the food was very poor except for the dessert. In my student menu, the main course had black pieces that you couldn't eat and the sauce was slimy

Although it is not obvious from the outside, the inside is very spacious and beautiful. The garden is also quite large. Both beers and food were good. I think his score should have been higher.

It was supposed to be a nice evening, unfortunately it was a disaster, the soup was simply tasteless, had to be seasoned several times, and the ox shreds were completely over salted. To top it off, a mouse (or several) strolled back and forth between the guest towns and the beer garden. The waiter apparently already knew this, but it didn't bother him. According to the statement, there were already several mouse traps in them but no mouse. goes in. Rabat, or a little schnapps, on the house? None? There was nothing cozy about the beer garden either.

Delicious goulash soup and excellent beer, excellent service

Beautiful place! Cross it by luck but I love it, an amazing interior and felt in a real local place.

Excellent dishes. Punctual and quick service. To return. Adequate price.

Traditional dishes, well prepared and well served at a fair or even great price, considering that you will hardly find anything cheaper and with the same quality. The service was good, but I was only with my family on days when there was little movement. Regarding the space, I believe there is a problem with the ventilation of the space, as much of the cigarette odor from the open area and the street seems to invade the interior of the restaurant, making it a bit inconvenient for non-smokers. Furthermore, it is a great German food restaurant, located close to Karlsplatz (Stachus) station, but hidden from the urban chaos. Worth the visit.

Good home cooking and a special ambience

I was the only one, at 6pm. Construction in the area might be hurting them. Food was food, seemed old, just reheated, cooked days ago. Who knows if you will get good food and proper meal, or it will be a Ghost of its old glory.

Nice courtyard/rear. Fast service and good schnitzel. The prices were very good compared to the more central restaurants on the pedestrian street.

Nice atmosphere, delicious food and friendly staffs :) Happy to have German cuisine.

Friendly staff, good service and delicious food. Thanks

In the center of Munich. Typical local cuisine, nice service, great ambience. Definitely an insider tip!!!!

I should have taken it as a sign when we walked in and there was only one other couple dining here at prime dinner hours. It only got worse with our food, as our spaetzles were clearly microwaved from the day before, and our chicken was bland. Even still, I wasn’t fully turned off to the place. However, after seeing multiple mice running around the restaurant, I was ready to leave. After alerting our waiter to the issue, he first acted confused and pretended not to understand what I was talking about, until he confessed that he was aware of the rodent problem, but seemed unconcerned with the issue. Safe to say that we then left without taking another bite of our food.

I think it's a really good inn. I didn't see a mouse in the kitchen and everything was clean for me.

Nice and quiet Munich inn on a side street near Karlsplatz. Very nice hospitality and delicious food. Prices are ok compared to other restaurants in the city center. Nice small and shady courtyard. I always like to come when I'm in Munich.

Best Münchner Schnitzel I have ever eaten. 10/10 would recommend. Everything down to the side dishes was outstanding.

This inn not far from Karlsplatz (Stachus) is better known among locals and is very pleasant to linger and feast on. There were six of us in this inn and we were completely satisfied - there was no loud (live music) and so we were able to have a perfect conversation. Compared to other Bavarian taverns in the center, the prices here are relatively moderate. For example, I had a pike-perch fillet with spinach and parsley potatoes for €19.90 - in comparable, sometimes better-known restaurants, the food is a little higher priced. In the attached pictures you can see the pike-perch fillet and also the "Bergsteiger pork schnitzel in cheese and pretzel breading with potato salad.". The service was good and quick, the food was very good and the restaurant was clean and somewhat rustic (chandeliers with deer antlers, etc.). Overall, clear recommendation.

Terrible experience, the pork was rare, the cheese spatzle was burnt and the worst kaiserschmarren I've ever eaten in Bavaria. I would never go back.

Found by chance during a day in Munich. The restaurant presents itself as classic Bavarian, the same goes for the dishes and the environment. All in all a positive experience: excellent food, impeccable dessert, quite large portions. The plating of the daily menu is also particular; we opted for a Schnitzel, a fish dish and a chicken breast fillet with Spätzle, truly delicious. The only downside is the toilet: it needs to be looked at again. For the rest, a suitable place and recommended for families.

Good restaurant globally. Lack of ambiance

Very tasty, good service - recommended!

Great service, nice quiet atmosphere and perfect food. Any time!

We really enjoyed this restaurant and returned to it. Very generous portions, good quality and very competitive prices!

We liked this quiet and fairly discreet traditional restaurant, but rather well decorated. The service is fast and the cuisine generous. You just have to get used to the fact that a glass of water costs more than half of a good goulash, but overall the prices are quite reasonable.

Food very good, large portions and very tasty. It's a little hidden but highly recommended. Price and performance ratio is impeccable. It should actually be packed

Cozy brewery with good cuisine and friendly service

Very tasty 😋 large portion, nice atmosphere Great staff

Conclusion: Despite the inexpensive and ok food, it is absolutely not worth a second visit, especially not with the polite but otherwise completely disorganized staff. Pros: + Price was absolutely fine + Ambience/decor was nice + Food was ok, but nothing particularly good either. Cons: - It started when there was a dirty napkin on my table when I arrived and it wasn't cleared away either - Apparently it's just a matter of feeling. Therefore, I was served at least once by every waiter in the restaurant and had to place my drink order a total of 3 times - Both me and several other tables were brought incorrect drinks and dishes - When I asked when I ordered, I was assured that the roast pork would be ready in 5 minutes. Unfortunately, after 20 minutes there was still no food on the table and it took several looks at the staff and even getting up and asking for the food because... - no one else proactively served it - I don't know if this is normal, but the crust of the roast pork that was just on top was so hard that even after picking it up and trying to bite it off, you couldn't get it apart

Great Bavarian food with a traditional dining experience! I totally recommend!

Good food, good service. Gladly again if nearby.

the restaurant had an agreement with our hotel, a soup kitchen experience, poor food in an unwelcoming, chaotic place and there is no air exchange. The only saving grace is the service.

Ristorante decisamente da evitare. Il cibo oscilla tra mediocre e commestibile con difficoltà, molto di quello che viene servito é evidentemente congelato e/o precotto, le birre sono accettabili ma il prezzo varia tra con e senza tasse, se in contanti fanno pagare 4,50€, prezzo che sale a 10€ se si paga con carta, dal momento che pagando in contanti non viene fatto lo scontrino. Il servizio é decisamente la parte peggiore, i camerieri sono scontrosi e conoscono poco se non nulla di inglese, ciò rende difficile comunicare, a tal punto che non hanno idea di cosa servono, alla domanda di una nostra amica celiaca sulla presenza o meno di glutine nel piatto hanno assicurato "no gluten", la stessa ragazza purtroppo si è poi sentita male e ha dovuto passare buona parte della notte in ospedale. Riassumendo: cucina molto sub-par e servizio inaccettabile.

Il cibo è spaventoso, personalmente non riuscivo neanche a masticarlo. Esperienza paurosa: ad una ragazza celiaca era stato servito un piatto, i camerieri hanno affermato che non contenesse glutine ma purtroppo la ragazza ha passato la notte a vomitare in ospedale. Altra esperienza: arriva un piatto misterioso, anche chiedendo ai camerieri il dubbio permane dato che nemmeno loro sapessero di che cosa si trattasse.

Went to Lindy Brunch and it was great.

Very nice atmosphere. If you want a little more peace and quiet while eating, this is the right place for you. The waiter was also very nice and accommodating. I had the onion roast, which unfortunately didn't meet my expectations (the meat was tough and I would have imagined the fried onions freshly fried in the pan and not the crispy, ready-made fried onions). My partner had a schnitzel which tasted very good and is absolutely recommended. From a price point of view, all dishes are also within the range. All in all, we can recommend the food, drinks and staying here.

We were in Munich for several days on a long weekend and were looking for a restaurant at 9 p.m. and came across this place. The waitress is more concerned with their own cell phones than with the service. The food tasted like old fat and left a bland and long aftertaste. The ambience was simple and deserved 2 stars. The atmosphere could be compared to that of church; whispering and quiet conversations were more appropriate. To crown the story, a mouse came from near the kitchen and came within 2 meters of us until the mouse was scared away by a loud scream. We were happy to be out of the store after about 30 minutes and went home with a strange feeling in our stomachs.

I celebrated my 60th birthday in the wine bar. The innkeeper, Mr. Januzi, gave me very competent and detailed advice right from the start, helped me with everything and gave me the security that the big festival would go well. And so it was! Mr. Januzi responded to my many special requests and made them possible. We had enough space to dance the ceilidh, the food was great, the service men were courteous and always there. All my guests were absolutely happy. Motto of the evening: “That’s where the bear dances” completely achieved! Many thanks and big praise to the service and kitchen team!

a friend of mine vomited as soon as she left

Good Bavarian cuisine. What is particularly excellent is the Kaiserschmarrn as dessert

Ate delicious Wiener Schnitzel. Very good

delicious Bavarian food, attentive staff, gladly again

Good place to try local Bavarian cuisine.

The place is welcoming, but the food tastes of nothing

Fortenente not recommended, inedible food, not to further rage, but in addition to a more than rude treatment the product is not at all acceptable

The beer was good! But: the soup was too salty, the fries tasted warmed up and the schnitzel was so well. The prices are okay, but the quality of the food doesn't match.

knows everything king klamotten (truly vile food and rude service)

A quiet oasis with delicious food at fair prices with friendly service! As always great, many thanks to the whole team and see you next time!

Unwelcoming staff Uninviting location Unworthy service Shameful food Summary: disgusting "local".

Amazing that this restaurant does not have more customers. The food was delicious and the server was attentive. First time trying a bread soup and I can say that it is now one of my favorite soups. Make sure to stop by if your in the area. I highly recommend it.

Let me start by saying that I was with a group of students and teachers, as I had an agreement with a hotel 9 km away. Medium-low quality food, canteen-style service, large but chaotic environment, I wouldn't go back

Altmunich restaurant in the center, near Stachus is pleasant. The food is good, the service very attentive. I had to get used to the atmosphere of a well-kept station waiting room.

Everything was good, schnitzel tasted good, beer too, Friday at 6 p.m. it was max 50% full, some regulars. We had reserved and thought it wouldn't be necessary. Then a foreign student group of 30 people came, probably in an adjoining room, but it can quickly fill up. Will definitely go back

Off the beaten track. I cannot stand crowded loud places, But this place, is just perfect , awesome for me because we could hold a conversations, we saw couple of office lunch patrons , this place had ample of spaces so that we are know elbow jabbing anyone . The food had exceeded our expectations got some on—the-house pretzels . The main courses dishes were Super yummy , Schnitzel was tender and tasty, generous sizes the Super crispy roast pork and swimming in gold , tip : the snack size isn’t snack - it’s a meal ! We ordered Leberkase for the snack, we could not have dinner today . But we will be coming back.

We found this restaurant on the first night of our long weekend in Munich. We enjoyed it so much, we returned for a second visit and were not disappointed. The food was traditional German dishes and our party of six shared most of the popular dishes and all of which hit the high standards we expected. We particularly enjoyed the service we got from all the waiting staff. Every meal served with a smile and little joke. Thank you for making our stay memorable.

Professional service and great dark beer

Gasthaus offering Bavarian cuisine in the heart of Munich, a good address for passing tourists!

The staff are so very friendly and the food, especially for the price, the highlight out of the meals eaten in Munich. We enjoyed so much the first night we came back again two evenings later! Would highly recommend. Dankeschöne to all the staff!

Mediocre food, very loud construction noise during lunch time and the food arrived late.

Food cold and salad not very imaginative. Not suitable for allergy sufferers. Once and never again. A pity.

A friendly welcome from waiter Igli - menu with what you would expect in a Munich restaurant. The beef goulash today with bread dumplings was perfect, the beer was well tapped. I'd love to come back here.

Ein Wirtshaus wie in alten Zeiten.

I had a lovely, well-priced meal here. Very close to the hotel I stayed at, an excellent location. Obviously a regular clientele, which made for a nice, relaxed vibe. Staff were friendly and the food was delicious. Would highly recommend for an easy, no-fuss option.

Highly Recommended! We've been there three times now and every time it tasted very good - and at reasonable prices. The restaurant is somewhat hidden near Stachus (Karlsplatz) on the edge of the train station district, which makes it easy to miss. That's probably why it's not that busy - we found a seat in the almost empty restaurant without a reservation. In my opinion, this is not a sign of bad food, poor service or an unkempt atmosphere - quite the opposite. Maybe the operator should work on improving the visibility of the restaurant. The entrance, for example, is a bit difficult to see next to the floor-to-ceiling windows. The service was very nice and attentive, but not intrusive. Special requests such as food intolerances were fulfilled. The toilets were absolutely clean, the guest room was very well maintained and pleasantly furnished. The music changed a bit between different styles, and in between, advertising - probably from a streaming provider - was played. The food was very tasty - kudos to the kitchen! Once we had the goulash with napkin dumplings (the meat fell apart in your mouth, the sauce was absolutely good; a bread dumpling instead of napkin dumpling, but it was still very good) and the forester's steak with a sauce, fresh mushrooms and fried potatoes. The other time we had the 1/2 knuckle with potato dumplings, sauerkraut and red cabbage (the latter instead of the additional bread dumpling according to the menu) and the dumpling variation consisting of a potato dumpling with brown butter, a bread dumpling, a spinach dumpling, on sauerkraut and with melted onions - everything was absolutely great !

Abbiamo trovato questo ristorante per caso, in una strada dietro la piazza Karlsplatz. Personale molto cordiale, penso fosse il proprietario.. Parla anche un po' di italiano e ci ha messo subito a nostro agio. Ottima qualità del cibo, veramente buono. Curano molto anche l'aspetto del piatto, che comunque è una cosa sempre piacevole da vedere. Molto bello anche il locale, ben curato. Bagni pulitissimi. Birra top. Prezzi leggermente più bassi di quelli soliti che si trovano al centro di Monaco, e per la qualità servita, direi davvero ottimi! Il proprietario, gentilissimo, alla fine ci ha chiesto, in Italiano, se volessimo portare via gli avanzi in un sacchetto. (è abbastanza frequentate che ve lo chiedano). Io lo consiglio moltissimo. Non è pubblicizzato come tanti altri locali di Monaco ma è assolutamente valido e da provare.

Nice, spacious restaurant with a changing weekly menu and various schnitzel dishes.

Nice, old restaurant. Delicious food

The food was very good for the price. The atmosphere is also very nice. What didn't work at all was the waiter. Every guest was told several times that they would have to wait up to 20 minutes to get to the table. There were only a handful of tables occupied!! And the highlight, when we got the bill, he asked us to give more because he has to share the tip with the kitchen and bar. He's embarrassed to beg, but he can't help it. So, we'll be happy to come back from May, this waiter will probably be gone, but I feel sorry for the owner because this gentleman will probably scare away a lot of guests. I hope I can award more points after a next visit.

We suddenly had to pay in cash, even though this was not indicated in advance. Furthermore, the waiter was very emphatic that we actually had to pay at least €150, while the bill for everything was €135. He wrote his own tip, while there was no atmosphere or hospitality to be found... Very sad, would never come here again!

We had a family Chistmas dinner in this restaurant and were totally disappointed. The quality of the food was far from any average Bavarian restaurant, 0,5l beer was actually 0,4l and the service was extremely slow. The overall experience: 3/10. We won’t be back.

Rundum zufrieden. Gut gegessen. Feines Bier. Netter Service

Freundliches, aufmerksames und zuvorkommendes Personal. Das Essen ist wirklich sehr lecker und qualitativ hochwertig. Das Ambiente ist ebenfalls sehr schön und obwohl das Restaurant in der Nähe des Bahnhofes ist, merkt man innen überhaupt nichts davon. Sehr zu empfehlen

Trovato per caso dietro al nostro hotel. Cena tipica tedesca in ambiente super carino e camerieri molto cordiali. La snitzel meravigliosa!!!

Restaurant proche de la gare centrale. L’accueil y est très bon et le service irréprochable. Petit bémol sur le cadre qui n’est pas très chaleureux mais notre serveur a été vraiment aux petits soins avec un service au top. Cuisine traditionnelle allemande parfaitement exécuté. Il n’y a pas de chichis pour la présentation de l’assiette mais c’est très bon. Nous avons pris une salade de saucisses en entrée et une soupe à l’oignon. En plat une snitzel et en dessert la tarte soufflée de Oma. Un très bon pétillant local. Nous avons partagé le restaurant avec une soirée donc un peu bruyant mais c’était bien. Excellent rapport qualité prix à deux pour un dîner à Munich complet (entrée - plat - dessert - boisson - café pour 127€). Très bon guest hause.

Eigentlich könnte das Gesellenhaus gerade in München eine Empfehlung sein: zentrale Lage, kein Schnickschnack, vernünftige Preise. Leider ist der Service neuerdings aber dermaßen desorganisiert, verschnarcht und unbemüht, dass man hier wirklich nicht mehr hingehen möchte. So schafft man es, auch langjährige Gäste zu vergraulen. Schade drum.

Sehr nette und gemütliche bayerische Wirtschaft. Sehr nettes Personal. Ideal zum Essen vor dem Theaterbesuch im deutschen Theater.

Für sind am 2.11. 23 gegen frühen Abend in das lokal gekommen, da kam der Kellner und sagte es könne 10 min dauern bis er uns bedienen kann, hat noch so vieles anderes zu erledigen, dann hat er die Getränke gebracht und wieder den Spruch losgelassen Ich war selber in der Gastronomie tätig, in meinen Augen hatte er überhaupt keinen Plan. Hat uns auch nicht gefragt, ob wir was essen wollen. So kann man die Gäste auch vertreiben. Wir haben unsere Getränk ausgetrunken und sind dann wieder gegangen, ohne was gegessen zu haben. Wenn solche Bedienungen weiterhin dort beschäftig sind kann man das Lokal nicht empfehlen.

Waren heute nach einem 1 stündigen Aufenthalt am Bahnhof dort zu Abend essen. Dass Lokal war innen sehr schön eingerichtet, Service war super aufmerksam!!! Das Essen hat auch nicht lange gedauert und schmeckte super!!! Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist einfach super. Weiter so!!! Wir kommen wieder. 5/5 Sternen

Absolut prima und empfehlenswert. Halbwegs authentisch bayrische Gastwirtschaft mit fairen Preisen und Speisen, die wirklich okay sind. Keine Top-Küche, aber den Preisen angemessen. Hatte den Schweinsbraten mit Knödel und Krautsalat. Alles absolut korrekt. Lage in Nähe zum Bahnhofsviertel nicht ganz einfach aber auch praktisch. Immer wieder gerne...👍😉🍖🍺

Gut gegessen. Ein wenig auf Touristen ausgerichtet. Einfache Speisen. Mein Krautsalat war versalzen, aber das kann bei einem verliebten Koch ja mal passieren. Teuer.

Also ich fange mit den positiven Aspekten an. Das Essen war grandios! Einfach lecker, nicht zu viel und nicht zu wenig! Auch die Lokalität war in Ordnung. Zwar habe ich mir unter einem Gesellenhaus ein etwas gemütlicheres Plätzchen vorgestellt, aber man konnte gut sitzen und es war nicht allzu laut. ABER (beabsichtigt in Großbuchstaben) Der Service war eine reine Katastrophe! Wir wurden zwar begrüßt, aber nachdem man uns gefragt hat, ob wir reserviert hatten (haben wir sogar), wurden wir plump am Eingang stehen gelassen. Wir haben uns dann einfach einen Platz gesucht (normalerweise wird man in einem guten Restaurant zum Platz geführt). Als wir dann relativ schnell Getränke und Essen bekommen haben, wurden wir zwischendurch leider nicht nochmal gefragt, ob wir etwas zu trinken haben wollen. Wenn das Lokal bis zum Rand voll gewesen wäre, könnte ich das verstehen, aber es waren vielleicht 50-60% der Tische besetzt. Die Krönung war aber, als wir bezahlen wollten. Ich habe kein Trinkgeld gegeben bei dem "Service" zu Beginn. Der Kellner war ganz pikiert, ist einfach ohne ein "Auf Wiedesehen" davon geeilt. Mein Freund hat sich noch freundlich verabschiedet, aber der Kellner hat ihn gekonnt ignoriert. Sowas ist uns noch nicht untergekommen. Also von bayerischer Gastfreundlichkeit war das gaaaaaanz weit entfernt!

Bei Bestellung eines Putensteaks war die Championsoße kalt. Beim Servicepersonal hätte man den Eindruck, dass sie überfordert waren.

Leckeres Essen und sehr guter Service. Bedienung war sehr freundlich.

This is a great place with high-quality, tasty traditional Munich food. Well-balanced menu that will Interest not only local folks but also travelers. Easy to find on a quiet side street near Karlsplatz. Food arrived hot and in a timely manner, nicely presented. Full complement of wines and beers, and everything was priced reasonably. This was one of my finest meals during a month of traveling by car from Berlin south to Fussen and back up to Munich. Walkins are welcomed. Open until 11 PM for late diners, too.

Freundliche Bedienung, Essen schmeckte leider nicht so lecker

Wir fühlen uns hier jedes mal sehr wohl beim Essen, es ist auch nicht überlaufen kommen so dass man sich unterhalten kann. freundliches personal.
