Augustiner-Keller in München

Now I know why I hate going out to eat so much. There is a very high risk that I will then be dissatisfied. Maybe it's just me. But if you like cold dumplings (max 32 degrees) and lukewarm red cabbage (less than 25 degrees) with juicy, tender, medium-warm duck with limp skin on a cold plate, I can definitely recommend the place, because the beer tastes good. When the waiter asked that the dumpling was cold, he just nodded. Of course I didn't get a warm dumpling. And one more thing: we were charged for every single slice of bread. Wow.

Genuine Bayern food and best lager, Edelstoff, in town

Everything was great, very good food

A very pleasant evening with the best food and great service. Thanks!

Top service. Fantastic food. Is very crowded. Reservation urgently required. But compliments, the waitresses have a hard time getting it under control. Attentive.

Great atmosphere, great food. Had a cordon bleu and a large beer. Wiener schnitzel was good also

Well. For a night which was not identified as busy, the service was very slow. I was not overly impressed as we were seated right next to the lower floor kitchen with the associated noise. All in all, I suggest you visit but understand that the place is geared to high turnover.

What a Bavarian brewery should be like: lively (full), cheerful, hearty, fresh food and excellent beer. Excellent service included!

Huge beer hall on many levels and great 🍺

The food and service didn't even deserve 0 stars, the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Came in here after a train journey and received two rather lopsided beers, ordered a 0.5l and at most there is 0.4l in there...

We had a great Christmas party here, with great, fast service - thank you!

Cute and everything, beer was solid, don’t get why they put corn in the side salad lol But love the bayern vibes🤠

Great location. Without a reservation, we were lucky to get a spot at all at this time of year. We were in the old warehouse cellar. Great service. Absolutely friendly.

Sea-cooked pasta doesn't work at all. The delicious beer almost makes up for it.

Food selection, as you would expect from a traditional Munich restaurant, good quality, reasonably priced. Yesterday we had a bar waiter for whom the calibration mark probably only serves as a suggestion, not as a legal obligation. What the Asians at the next table got in their beer mugs in particular was cheeky, max. 700 ml. That's why only 3 stars

Always great food and very nice and courteous staff

The best restaurant in München 🩷 Because the hotel lives nearby and the one day tour guide recommended the locals’ favorite restaurants, it certainly didn’t disappoint. Recommended German pig's feet and pudding bread dessert❤️

Great food but it was the first time in my life in Europe someone reminds you to pay the tip. And the service was ok but nothing special.

It was wonderful. The waiter who served our table was simply sensational and was able to fulfill all our wishes

Terrible service, server forgot our order and then didn’t return to our section for 45mins. Had to locate him in the kitchen. Ruined the experience. Pork shoulder was very dry. Veal schnitzel was better.

Tasty and good in the Augustiner Speicher. Staff a bit grumpy and tense. The atmosphere upstairs is more like a canteen

It's really delicious here. All menu items are above average. I thought it would be a tourist restaurant, but it wasn't at all. The food was guaranteed. I was curious about Haksen, so I asked about it on Reddit and it was recommended, so I went there. I made a mistake when ordering and couldn't eat Haksen, but the sausages and non-alcoholic beer were all delicious and the service was attentive! Next time, I want to go here and order a lot of food leisurely. The stir-fried cabbage was truly the side of my life... They said there was a 10% tip, but I already knew about it, so I paid happily because the service was good and the price was cheaper than the place I stopped by before!

Don’t go here. I am furious that they attempted to charge more than the prices listed on the menu. No apology, had to get the manager to fix. Servers judge you for getting non beer. Corner expressed by other reviews is accurate. Certain groups are heavily disfavored.

Very good Bavarian restaurant 🥨🥨 30 minutes walk from the center Nice staff Quick to bring our dishes Very spacious and calm at the same time Very nice when you're looking for the Bavarian experience without a lot of noises and music like Oktoberfest 🍺 😅😍

Great restaurant, 4 people were there for the Weisswurst breakfast. Delicious white sausage with crispy pretzels. Friendly waiter, so everything was great

Unfortunately the staff was totally overwhelmed and inflexible! Unfortunately, like in the others, the food is no longer as good as it used to be. The portions are very small, but the prices have risen significantly. Price/performance ratio is no longer right at all, just a tourist rip-off for those who only come there once. It's a shame about that!!! The soup was just poorly seasoned, lukewarm water that more eyes looked in than out. The baked fish was a mini portion, the cheap potato salad covered 2/3 of the plate. Only the steamed dumpling tasted very good.a

Noisy place,food was ok,the service could be better.

Beautiful service, beautiful food.

I'm not from Munich, but it's a nice place to sit comfortably together after a long journey (outside in summer). Beer and food are delicious, atmosphere good and cozy.

It was a very nice visit. We had previously booked a curling rink. We were able to enjoy very tasty Augustiener beers or mulled wine. In the evening we went to the Augustiener Keller, where we were taken to the reserved seats. A Christmas menu was served. I'd love to come back.

Mulled wine + ice cream... It doesn't get any better

Waited 25 mins to pay the bill. Server keeps telling me to wait. It’s ridiculous

It was nice to eat noisily. Is this what it would be like to enjoy a party on a pirate ship? Schweinhaxen is very tough. Since we are from Germany, let’s try it! And I won't eat it again..? The staff's service is the kindness of a rough man. It felt exactly like that.

For us, the Augustiner cellar is the most authentic. A rustic atmosphere, quick, friendly waiters, and the delicious Augustiner Bräu; Whether light or dark - always a pleasure!

Characteristic pub, you certainly don't go here for the quality of the food, the waiters put a lot of pressure on you to keep drinking, in our case the second time we didn't reorder beer they made us get up, the room was empty, not recommended.

Schnitzel and sausages were very good!

Typical biergarten with a very good traditional food and bier. Worth to visit and enjoy the place. It’s usually very busy so better to book in advance to avoid waiting for a table.

Beer houses are legendary, but it is not possible to find a place without a reservation during Christmas Markets, even though it is on weekdays.

The food and beer are very tasty, but the mustard is missing, when you asked, it took a long time to get a packet of mustard... helllooo save on mustard?!?!

Nice food busy restaurant but wouldn’t return.

Good food and atmosphere! It was a satisfying meal 🍽️

My husband and I spontaneously went to the Augustiner Keller yesterday (December 3, 2024). We hadn't made a reservation, but we got a table straight away. The food (Cordon Bleu, Käsespätzle, Kaiserschmarrn) was all very good. The waiter was great - I think his name was Samir. He was always very attentive and in a good mood. We would love to come back.

This is Munich's first address for beer lovers.

The service was NOT there! All the waiters are so rude, and the food is mediocre at best. The pork shoulder we ordered was so dry. Beer is good but the terrible services took all the joys out of the meal! There are many other great breweries in Munich, we don’t have to come back here every there are interesting places but we don’t need rude people to serve us!

Everything from the atmosphere right through to the food is amazing. This is not fine dining however it is great dining. The staff make you feel very welcome and are multi lingual. This place was recommended by a friend of ours (a local man) and wow, was not disappointed. The locals eat/drink here, the tourists eat/drink here and the whole place really works well. The grounds are HUGE and there is Eisstock schiessen (like ice bowls) to play. The fire pit with cozy blankets on the seats. Everything was great.

Must stop; obviously with this many great reviews. The ambience is great, the decor on point, warm and cozy; great place to eat, drink, and be merry. Food was really good, beer was cold. Highly recommend.

Wonderfully quaint. As always well attended. Very tasty beer and food. Service is nice, but you can have a bad day sometimes Despite a reservation, we only got one table that was a regular table. Of course the gentlemen didn't really like that as they arrived 15 minutes early ;)

I came here for beer (not food). Unfriendly staff. Blunt, sullen, rushed and impersonal. Ordering was already unfriendly, but the angry man behind the cash register was certainly not pleasant. It also seems to be mixed with water to fill the glasses. It all seems nice, and it's certainly an atmospheric place, as long as you avoid the bar and cash register staff.

The Augustiner cellar runs like a well-oiled machine. We hadn't made a reservation, but we were assigned a spot immediately. The staff is extremely polite and quick. Food came after a very short time. Price-performance ratio absolutely fine. The ambience is a “beer cellar ambience”, not cozy, a hall and correspondingly loud the more guests there are. But you know that beforehand. We will come again.

Service was good. The food is of average quality, it seems that the whole thing is a large factory. Despite the advance reservation, we were seated back and forth, and we were finally able to rest in the third place. After a short wait, two (fortunately kind) strangers were seated next to us.

I just had beer. Beer was responsibly priced. The staff was excellent and very helpful, serving out orders in an instant. Nice location, a very big restaurant with many tables

The place is excellent, the food is very good and the beer is my favorite! But above all, the treatment, kindness and service that Samir the waiter gave us was extraordinary! Excellent person! An experience not to be missed in Munich!

This brewery met all of my "North German" expectations. The beer is delicious and the food was hearty, tasty and well prepared. Despite our large contingent of over 100 people, the service had everything under control. The outdoor capacity was also immediately used. Food and drinks were also offered there without being asked. Just great...

It was an extraordinary experience that I would like to share with anyone considering visiting the Augustiner. I advise anyone who wants to eat here to eat in the upper part of the restaurant, if at all. Unfortunately we were put in the “basement”. The ambience wasn't bad, the beer was excellent, and the food – especially the pork knuckle – tasted really good. Nevertheless, I would have liked to have avoided the experience we had on November 30th, 2024 around 9 p.m.: When the waiter took our drink order, he started flirting and stroking my shoulder in an unpleasant and obnoxious way. When he brought the drinks to our group of six, we realized he had served the wrong drinks. He tried to convince us that Helles was the same as a freshly tapped Pilsner - which is of course absolute nonsense. At a brewery I expect the waiters to have more knowledge about beer. When we informed him that the drinks were incorrect he became snotty and asked if it was his fault or ours. He started arguing and insisted that we should just have the wrong drinks. On the second attempt he finally brought the right drinks, but without saying a word he slapped them on the table and left. We waited 20 minutes for him to take our food order - which he didn't. Finally we approached him ourselves to point out that we wanted to order. He then shouted at us and claimed that he had already been to us three times. After he “took pity” on taking the order and bringing the food to the table, he literally threw the plates on the table. There was no cutlery at the table, so we asked a waitress who was standing nearby for cutlery. She reacted extremely unfriendly and said literally: “Do you see cutlery here? I don't see any! Should I take it from the ……. “We then had to get cutlery from the neighboring table, which fortunately had too much. Napkins were also in short supply. But absolute madness awaited us when we paid: My partner wanted to pay our bill in advance, but the waiter refused and demanded that the entire table pay now, otherwise he wouldn't settle it. Two of our companions complied with the request and we were finally “allowed” to pay. However, when one of our companions wanted to finish his beer in peace, the waiter came to the table again, asked him to pay immediately and finally grabbed his arm. He threatened and forced him to get up and pay. The waiter tipped some drinks over the table and behaved like a wild man. As we became louder and announced that we would call the police and demand the boss, this nightmarish situation slowly dissipated. In addition to this horrific situation, I would also like to shed light on the POSITIVE side of the Augustinian: The boss is very nice. To appease ourselves, we were moved to the upper part of the restaurant and invited for a drink. There we were served by a super nice, nice and competent lady who knew both beer and wine, was able to give us recommendations and was extremely attentive. I hope that if you choose the Augustiner, you choose the upper area of ​​the restaurant. You can spend a lovely evening there, with waitresses who are happy to tip and who make you feel at home!

It was extremely crowded, so it's better to reserve here in advance! But a great Bavarian, rustic atmosphere, the food was delicious and the service was quick and professional. Always my pleasure.

This place is SO AWESOME. Super friendly service, food came fast. Augustiner schmankerlplatte includes four type of meat, all delicious. The dessert we got is frische dampfnudel, taste like heaven

My absolute highlight: not the beer garden, not the large ballroom, but the old warehouse cellar, which can be found via a small spiral staircase to the right of the entrance to the ballroom. Super cool and plenty of space to sit. Service was super nice. We got a place even without a reservation. Food arrived super quickly, was delicious and the atmosphere was exactly what you would like in a Bavarian restaurant.

Nice location, good food but the portions are a bit small.

Waiters down in the cellar totally unfriendly should receive training for their guests on how to behave properly. Beer tastes great

Unfortunately, our waitress was overwhelmed and couldn't serve our small group well. The food was good, but you had to wait at least 30 minutes for a drink. Pleasant atmosphere and good food, unfortunately the filling side dish was forgotten for some meals.

Disrespectful waiters who could say get out!!! Unfortunately, there is nothing special about their food either :( Go to Hofbräu House, at least the staff are polite

Very nice Bavarian brewery, with great hearty food and friendly service

I ordered an onion roast. Unfortunately unfortunately unfortunately the worst I've ever had. Very chewy and dry. When I protested to the waiter, I was told "Well, that can happen!" The fried potatoes and sauce were good. Nothing to complain about. However, far too bad meat for 25 euros!

Wonderful old Munich restaurant with friendly staff, good food and a nice ambience!

We were lured by the many good reviews... The food was OK! The beer is outstanding. Service on November 30, 2024 at 10 p.m the basement was a complete disaster. We were shouted at by the staff, ignored and not served and the wrong things were brought to us, in return for which we were shouted at. I don't normally write reviews, but this was terrible. I hope the boss reads this message.

A very popular brewery , packed with lots of people on Thursday evening! I called in advance to ask about booking a table which wasn’t possible. So we decided to try our luck. The service was really quick and efficient! The service team was obviously very busy. I know there were negative reviews about bad service, but I definitely didn’t experience it. The service team found a table for two of us very quickly and were all very nice and friendly! The foods were very delicious, and the beer was excellent! The interior design was very traditional German brewery style. Ver Nice experience!

Great food, amazing beer, 4* only because of Albanian waiters who ask you where are you from and if in your country people know about bakshish aka demanding tips even before serving you, destroys the mood and makes you feel obligated to leave tips no matter what 👎

Today, Friday, 29.11.2024, around 6:45 PM, we visited your restaurant at Arnulfstraße 52, 80335, for dinner with four friends. The friendly lady at the entrance told us that there were seats available downstairs, so we went down the spiral staircase. Afterward, a staff member told us that there were no available seats but that we could sit there until 8:00 PM if we wanted. We accepted and sat down. The table we chose was directly downstairs, at the end of the corridor, on a small platform in the middle. The waiter who attended to us was extremely rude. Instead of placing the dishes properly on the table, he practically threw them in front of us and rolled his eyes several times. He seemed dissatisfied the entire time, and we couldn’t figure out why—perhaps because we were foreigners? His attitude completely ruined our experience. The waiter was tall, had gray hair, was over 50 years old, and carried glasses in the left pocket of his shirt. When we asked for the bill, he said sharply, “Follow me.” Is saying “please” really too much to ask? When we went to pay, he asked if we wanted to add a tip, to which we obviously replied, “No.” His question came across as almost mocking, as if he were trying to provoke us. After we said no, he became even ruder: while processing the payment, he slammed the computer screen and keyboard as if we had been physically assaulting him. We have no intention of returning to this restaurant. We are in Munich for four days, and unfortunately, this was the most disappointing experience of our visit. Please take the necessary steps.

A visit to the Augustiner Keller in autumn is an unforgettable experience! The combination of traditional Bavarian atmosphere and the autumnal mood makes this place something very special. The beer garden shows its most beautiful side in autumn: the chestnut trees are covered in golden leaves, and the fresh autumn air gives the experience a cozy touch. Even on cooler days, the atmosphere here creates warmth - be it through the lovingly arranged seating or the sociable conversations with other guests. As always, the kitchen impresses with delicious, hearty dishes that are perfect for the season. Particularly recommended are the onion roast or the hearty game dish, which goes wonderfully with a freshly tapped Augustiner beer. The pumpkin soup as a starter was also a real treat. Inside the inn it is particularly cozy. The rustic furnishings, the warm light and the warm hospitality of the staff make your stay perfect. Despite the busyness, the service was quick and attentive. Every wish was fulfilled with a smile – typical Bavarian hospitality. The Augustiner Keller is an absolute insider tip for an atmospheric autumn evening in Munich. Whether in the beer garden or indoors: Here you can enjoy the best of the season. I'll definitely be back!

Augustiner Keller is an institution of Bavarian folk. They serve traditional food cooked with high standards, still at fair prices, and have the quality of Augustiner beer behind. Another plus is that it is one of the fewer spots of its kind in the city with the kitchen open until 23h. A safe pick for Bavarian beer hall.

I drank Augustiner original beer with half of my Schwein Hakse. Schwein Hakse has a somewhat tough and hard outer texture and skin, which can be annoying. The beer has a nutty flavor and the bitterness of the hops seems to be relatively clean.

They eat good knuckles. Very good wheat beer.

There is an older male employee guiding you at the entrance, talking right in front of you, but without looking at you, he guides the people behind you first. Are you a racist?

All 5 stars. Rarely has everything met my expectations so well.

Ordered pork knuckle with dumplings and coleslaw, knuckle warmed up and dry, also served too cold (you shouldn't be very hungry) coleslaw terrible. Great beer as always but poured 2 x 1 cm below the calibration mark (not possible at all)

The atmosphere is very good, and there are Vegetarian dishes, but if you don’t eat onions and garlic, he can’t remove them, so you will have nothing to eat ~ (The waiter was very nice but ordered the wrong meal... I can only deduct one more star

Best restaurant I’ve been to during my trip to Munich. Couldn’t be better Amazing food and great service. Surely will be back

Restaurant service and ambience a 10/10 The waiter tries to ensure the well-being of the guests. The boss personally comes to the table and asks if everything is OK. Rarely have you felt so comfortable in a restaurant.

Food was ok to good. (Potato dumplings little better than in the Augustiner Schützengarten, where the food was DISAPPOINTING except for Obatzter and Kaiserschmarrn. Even the dark Hefeweizen was out in the Schützengarten.😩 The nice, pretty, young waitress in the Schützengarten was the highlight at our table.) Starter plate 0- 8-15; Pretzels were lighter and thinner than Swabian pretzels. Fish dish with lots of delicious vegetables and potatoes was accompanied by a boring, yellow butter-cream (?) sauce. A meat plate with sauerkraut, bratwurst and poultry was not very well received in our group. We ate MUCH better bratwursts, sauerkraut and potato dumplings in Würzburg (the best in Bavaria at Juliusspital!). Obatzter and Kaiserschmarrn in the Schützengarten were better. In the Augustiner-Keller, too, the quick, helpful and friendly staff, along with curling, was the highlight of the evening.

Had a spiritual moment the lager was so good

A true German beer house, good vibe, great food and excellent service

I found this restaurant in the navigator, close to the hotel where I lived for several days. The reviews were positive. Went to eat Bavarian cuisine and drink beer. After 2 hours he returned and drank more beer!))) And the next day he came to try other dishes and other beer!))) The portions are large, one is enough for an adult. Prices are reasonable 23-27 euros. For such a large restaurant in the city center it is very good. There are about 15 waiters, so the service is fast. I was pleased with the service!

Absolutely the best traditional Bavarian restaurant and beer place around there. It was my second visit after 21 years. The food tasted better, beer excellent as always and excellent service. Thoroughly enjoyed the time there. It is advisable to book a table, as it can be pretty crowded (and noisy). Just looking forward to visit there again whenever that's possible

Staff is rude and cheeky. It's a nice place but quality of personnel went down over the years. Staff coercive and rude. The bosses probably know that, but I mean, so-called specialist staff are worth a lot. What do you want to do there? Like everywhere else in Germany, the same picture now. If you leave your money here, it's your own fault

Grumpy and agitated waiter. He walked away from our table very nervous and banging his fists at himself. Definitely negative experience. The only positive note is definitely the beer. The service totally needs to be REVIEWED.

We came in company to drink a beer, the extremely rude and arrogant waiter, since he didn't want to make us pay the separate bill he shouted at us and left simulating the gesture of a fist with his hands and stomping his feet. I absolutely do not recommend the place even though the beer is good

You can feel the festivals that are held there. Unfortunately more designed for mass production. Waiters not necessarily friendly to less drunk customers. Food very hearty so that the beer flows better, still good, but the online menu doesn't match the one on site. Well, I don't know, reputation precedes everything. Lots of empty tables but strangers are seated at your own. So everything in festival hall style... you have to like it

I would have given the food a 4 stars if it's not way too salty.

Awesome food, beer and service.

One of the best places on this planet! The beer tastes incredibly good! I can highly recommend it! Everyone should see it! The Augustiner Keller is an enrichment for our beautiful city of Munich! Also very good for tourists, recommended! I'd love to come again!

The food quality and the portions were disappointed. Too salty and the Kaiserschmarrn was dry. Very good and fast service and real Bavarian restaurant atmosphere.

Typical brewery, always something going on, quality is okay

Fine for drinking, not so good for eating. We had soup, a schnitzel with fries and the brewery plate with dumplings and sauerkraut. The soup was very thin, practically no ingredients and smelled very much like Maggi. The taste of the schnitzel was okay, but for over 25 euros it wasn't good in terms of price/performance. The delicacy plate for 30 euros was nothing. A small dumpling with a child's hand full of sauerkraut and 3 very dry pieces of meat. The beer was very tasty… We had a total of 80 euros, but I still gave the waitress a 5 euro tip because she couldn't help the bad food. There wasn't even a thank you. It's a shame, the next time we're in Munich we'll go somewhere else.

Food was so well (was lukewarm and not too freshly prepared). The service and the ambience were even better (especially the cellar)

My brewery in Munich Not touristy!

Very cozy space, excellent service

Typical place, with more than 800 seats, outside the historic center, where you can enjoy a beer and local cuisine. Quick and kind service. The place, as usual, is confusing and chaotic... but don't be scared, it's a prerogative of Munich beer bars!

A great place to eat and enjoy some beers. Fantastic service and great atmosphere.

A nice pub, the beer wasn't super, but the dishes in my opinion were really good, prices within the norm.
