Giesinger Bräustüberl in München

Delicious food, but the portions are a bit smaller. The beer is decent, though. The atmosphere and beer garden are very nice, except for the loud drunks. I'd be happy to come back if I'm invited for promotional purposes again.

Great atmosphere with nice food

Giesinger Bräu offers great beers and is a good place to stop if you're in the area. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The menu features typical Bavarian dishes. I found the cheese spaetzle I ordered to be a bit soft and mushy, and the portion size was also modest, as was the very small side salad. Unfortunately, the value for money here is so-so...

Very nice place, very good food, reservation required!

Nice ambiance, excellent beer selection, friendly service. Typical brewery food.

Had a lovely evening. Delicious food.

We were here on recommendation, very good food, good drinks, fast cooking, top service

Very cool, modern brewery. Lots of vegetarian options.

The vegan roast beef with onions. Awesome dish, and the name is an understatement in my opinion. It's actually the best meat-based dish I've ever eaten. You get a piece of 'meat' that looks like a medium filet mignon with the perfect consistency. It tastes really, really good. The side dishes are very tasty and as delicious as a side dish should be for a filet mignon. A truly incredible dish. Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo. It looked fantastic.

Absolutely recommended! The food and beer are much better than in the tourist breweries. Less crowd, but quality.

Excellent Bavarian delicacies 😋 😋 😋 in a very cozy atmosphere as well as fast and friendly service and for me the best Helles 🍺 in the world

Went to the 1860 vs. RWE game at the Giesinger Brauhaus: relaxed, cold bottled beer, grilled sausages, everything was great!

An exceptionally authentic brewery with excellent beers, friendly service, and a fantastic selection of vegetarian dishes. Highly recommended!

Great organic food, the beer is good as well.

Great location with good food. The bar with changing events is also highly recommended.

The Original Wiener schnitzel, knuspriges Ente and Kaiserschmarrn were excellent - will be our to-go-order on next visits. But the Greenforce Burger was disappointing, and when it came from a unfussy easy-to-please vegetarian, the remark speaks volumes.

Great service, very friendly the food is delicious. Pretty sure will come back next time .

After exploring central Munich, we asked ChatGPT for suggestions on more local experiences nearby, and it recommended Giesing. We took a bus and arrived in about 20–25 minutes. After walking around the area for a bit, we decided to try a beer at this historic and traditional brewery. We arrived around 5 PM. The place wasn’t full, but they asked if we were going to eat. When we said we were only here for drinks, they didn’t seat us at a table and instead directed us to the bar area. This wasn’t a big issue, but considering the place has two floors and plenty of tables, it would have been nicer if they let us sit at a table. We tried three different beers: Das Weißbier, Das Dunkle, and Münchner Hell. Das Dunkle was my personal favorite 🍺 By the way, you can also order a beer tasting set, which comes in 100 ml glasses—perfect if you want to sample a few varieties. I’ve attached photos of the beer selection and the menu. In terms of both price and taste, we found it quite good. I think it’s worth stopping by here to give some local flavors a try while in Munich 🍻 Also, the outdoor garden area looked really nice—definitely worth checking out if the weather is good.

The Giesinger Bräustüberl is a very nice brewery with various small beer gardens around the building. There are also various dining areas, some near the brewing kettles or at the bar. There is also a separate stand-up bar with music, separated from the actual bar. The location close to the Holy Cross Church is also charming. Because the brewery is shielded from the street by a wall on one side and surrounded by trees and wild vines on the other, it's easy to forget the big city here. The food is solid, but especially the beer is excellent. The dishes are Bavarian standard, but have a more modern design and are sometimes slightly reinterpreted. It should be positively mentioned here that as a vegetarian you not only have to eat Kässpatzen, but you can also choose from an unusually large menu. For me, the Bräustüberl has the character of a local pub.

Delicious beers, friendly service, and a menu that allows everyone (meat, vegetarian, vegan) to sample Bavarian tradition. For me, the best modern inn

I had the brewery platter, and it was great in terms of variety and selection. The beer was also very tasty.

Modern but cozy brewery, nice location, also for larger groups. Service is always on point and very friendly. Beer and Giesinger Spritz are delicious and drinkable. Food is good, but the portions could be a bit larger for the price, but the taste is good. Dishes are designed to be more modern with small, beautiful decorative twists. It's also nice that there are many different vegetarian and vegan alternatives.

I didn't like it. The food was only lukewarm, one meal was apparently forgotten, delivered later and was not cooked. The order could only be placed after a long wait. We had reserved, there were only time slots of 2 hours. In my opinion not recommended. Too bad

The food was nothing special, the rolled roast was more fatty than meat

Very friendly service, reasonable prices for white sausage breakfast and delicious beer. You sit outside on the street, but there isn't that much traffic.

Absolutely recommended, everything was great

I've eaten in the Bräustuben several times - and I'm always happy to come back! The beer is simply great, especially because there are several varieties to choose from that are great to try your way through. The Bräustuben are not only a great place for Bavarian food, but also for a real tavern atmosphere. The tavern is a wonderful place to sway, especially when things get a little more sociable. The atmosphere, food and beer simply go together here - for me it's a classic that I enjoy visiting again and again.

Very good beer, good selection. But the food is absolutely not recommended for the price. Overpriced and the quality wasn't great either. A no-go for the hefty price.

again and again, cozy brewery with great beer

The lightening from the barrel is very, very tasty. Food also recommended :)

Unfriendly conditions. Guests not welcome.

I was here for the first time and was very pleasantly surprised. Very interesting seasonal dishes and standard menu. Good beers and pleasant atmosphere.

Um, how cool is that? Extremely good beer, great selection, there is something for every taste. Excellent service staff. And the card - deserves an innovation award. I've been eating vegetarian and like meat alternatives for 15 years. This vegan steak aka "Vegan Onion Roast" is the best I've ever had in presentation, texture and taste. Thanks to the kitchen team for this experience. Absolute recommendation! ♡

Nice relaxed local pub, with great beer.

Price/performance: 9/10 Taste: 9/10 Ambiance: 9/10 Service: 10/10 Veggie: 10/10 Small, fine menu with selected Bavarian specialties and vegetarian alternatives. We sat at a large table outside on the terrace. Service was great. The speed too. Nothing to complain about. A variety of different beers, very tasty. We would come back straight away! Update 2024: We were here again and again we really enjoyed it. The beer selection & the food. The service was super nice. Many different and unusual vegetarian and vegan dishes. Update 2025: Here again a year later and on the advice of the restaurant, this time I ate the vegan onion roast. And what can I say? I still dream about it. Really a great pub where vegans also get their money's worth.

The good beer is always a reason to come back.

Food super tasty. Unfortunately, the homemade iced tea didn't taste like anything

Very good food and drinks.Loved it!

Very good food, we liked that you could try different types of beer.

Good bye! Yesterday we went to the event “Two goulash and two Seidl beers” at Giesinger and we really enjoyed the program. You know the beer, but we were once again very disappointed with the food. If the program invites you with goulash, then you would think that you would get goulash - but far from it. It was more like schnitzel with cream sauce (small shredded chunks of meat) - what was that? Doesn't the cook know goulash????? But we were already disappointed last summer; the cheese plate back then was also a disappointment. Mini chunks of Emmental cheese with hard, dried edges and 2 more, well, pieces of cheese. We can't really recommend eating at Giesinger.

No words (because it was super fun and I don't remember much after the beers...)

Great local. The Giesinger beer is super delicious and what particularly stands out are the vegan options on the menu! I would like to come here again.

It's a pity to see it turn out like this over time, expensive not-tasty, not-relevant food, and grumpy waiters...beer is great as always.

A real Munich original with great home-brewed beers❗️Bavarian cuisine, everything rustic and warm! Recommended 👍

Ate upstairs in the evening. Chose fish which was tasteless and very small portions. My friend chose roast beef which was also not a large portion. Despite both starter and dessert, there was a kebab later in the evening, which rarely happens after eating dinner in a similar place. Won't be back.

Where else in Munich can you get a good beer for €3!!!!

I can almost copy the text from Dom, Local Guide. We also had Kässpatzn and wild garlic dumplings in cream mushrooms and! You'll be amazed: carrot straw! The "straw" turned out to be four! Perhaps fried wafer-thin carrot strips were draped on the dumpling alongside some cress. The cream mushrooms and the dumplings looked good at first, but left a lot to be desired in terms of taste. The Kasspatzn were a single sticky lump that required a knife. The service was attentive and present, friendly and focused on the guest is different... but there wasn't really much going on. The daily menu with the slightly cheaper dishes was only available upon request... Despite the beautiful beer garden location, sitting outside for the first time of the year, only 2 disappointed ☆☆. Never again. Oh yes: and we also paid €45 for 2 veg dishes and 2 drinks.

The Giesinger Bräustüberl is a must. The food was excellent and the beer was a poem. There's nothing negative to say. I'll be back no question. Keep it up.

Good atmosphere, but sometimes a bit loud and very hot. We just had a drink, but the menu looked surprisingly good for vegetarians. Prices are slightly higher, but not unusual.

The Giesinger Bräu is a restaurant where you can eat well and drink very well. Whether outside or inside there is enough space for everyone, inside you can sit at the old brewing kettles, which creates a special atmosphere. The menu is clear and also has good vegan alternatives to meat. If you want a hearty meal, you're in good hands here. The beer comes in many different varieties, a little different than usual. The service was super friendly.

A must on the list of Munich beer bars for real beer connoisseurs. Very friendly and fast service. The daily menu offers little choice. The portions aren't exactly big. Price-performance is still balanced. The ambience is simple, with charm and a feel-good atmosphere only on the upper floor. Reservation is recommended.

The best beer and the best Bavarian food in Munich. At Giesinger you get a wonderful roast pork with the best salad in the whole city. The beef tata is also highly recommended! There is a large selection of beers, I personally recommend the “Red Ale”. 🍻 Cheers!

We were wonderfully entertained with delicious food and delicious drinks. There is a cheerful, friendly atmosphere here with the best service staff. We had an overall lovely evening.

The roast pork was a poem and the beer was tasty. The service was very friendly and quick and was able to give us good advice on choosing the different types of beer. I would like to come there more often now.

A very nice brewery, delicious beer, also non-alcoholic and super nice service. We had already had dinner at home otherwise we would have liked to try the dishes. There were very tasty dishes on the menu.

You can't TOP the FOOD!!! Always my pleasure!

Great food and great beer! What more do you need?

Best meal I had while in Germany. Every beer we tried was amazing, food was wonderful and the service was great. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Munich!

Been here many times, always amazing. Food may seem pricey but it is worth every cent. Have never eaten anything that wasn't absolutely delicious and portions are decently sized. Beer selection is perfect, wide variety with classics always available but seasonal options often widening the options. Service is great, it always feels as if the people working there are enjoying it. Definitely reserve a place before going, it can get very busy there.

Great choice of beer, all taste absolutely good. The service was quick and food was cooked very well, especially schnitzel. I also appreciated the atmosphere, there were places outside with view of green trees, so it was a pleasure to drink their beer, eat and having a rest.

Went to try an Innovator during Starkbier season. Beer was good but experience nothing special

Wonderful selection of delicious beers! I tried 6 different beers, fabulous! The Schweinebraten was great too!

Mediocre food. Wouldn't go there again.

Never at events, don't even see the artist because of the column, you'd rather watch TV, failure of the technology can happen wasn't so tragic because the artist was good and spontaneous, food (cheese spaetzle didn't look good visually and tasted even worse than it looked), service staff very good and quickly, even extra wishes were fulfilled, so my summary a nice location, good for something to drink and chat too, but don't bring any events and don't be hungry.

Worth it for the brewery and the food. As for the costs, I find it a bit expensive but the food is good.

Top location! Very nice and fast waiters! Great beer and brewery cuisine! Gladly again and again! 1A+++👍😁🍻

Friendliness leaves much to be desired. Guests are usually greeted as they arrive or depart. That's not the norm here. The food was no more than average and doesn't make me want to return.

Wir waren im Giesinger Bräustüberl zum Abendessen - unter der Woche. Das Brauhaus ist einfach aber gemütlich eingerichtet und gut besucht. Eine Reservierung wird daher empfohlen. Hinweis: Es gibt auch einen etwas feineren Bereich zum Abendessen. Die Bierauswahl ist groß und lecker. Der Service war ausgesprochen nett und zuvorkommend. Das Essen hat uns in Summe gut geschmeckt. Die höheren Preise sind uns aber auch aufgefallen. Das Fleisch war gut und der Kaiserschmarren lecker. Kartenzahlung ist natürlich kein Problem. Fazit: Wer leckeres Bier und Essen in ungezwungener Umgebung sucht, wird hier fündig.

Good beer and good food. It's great that they also have a nice selection of vegetarian dishes. The service is fast and cheerful. Unfortunately, the Bräustüberl is always very loud. We went there for the Innovator – it turned out really well this year!

Whenever I'm in Munich (Giesing), I eat here. The Giesinger Bräu is the only restaurant I know in Munich that, in addition to delicious beer, also offers typical Bavarian vegetarian and vegan food. And not just cheese spaetzle and cream mushrooms. The vegan onion roast was really good. I can only recommend it if you, as a vegetarian, want to go out for a hearty Bavarian meal.

Unfortunately it's no longer what it once was. Eating (roast pork) yesterday was an absolute disgrace. Two end pieces, totally dry and impossible to chew. Rails were like the day before, they weren't fresh. Two more people tried it and no one wanted to eat it. The second person at our table also received the same dry meat. The service was fine after some teething problems. Sorry, that wasn't it

Very, very tasty food, ambience was also nice. Our service was very friendly and quick.

They have every creative Bavarian foods. Beers are also fresh and tasty.

Nice location and good beer :-). Often good events

Everything was great, but no batteries (AAA) were provided for my hamster 🐹. (It's a shame, Germany is a service desert)

Great beer, friendly service, good food!

Food is super delicious and the beer is probably the best in town!

Great atmosphere and nice employees.

Some dishes are very good, others not so much. It's always a good place to drink a delicious beer!

We went with large group, took 3 tables inside. Amazing atmosphere. Service was very good. The beer offering is great. Try the 1 liter. Food offering is not the best but was good enough.

Large selection of beers, almost everything freshly tapped and all very tasty, including non-alcoholic beer! Menu with a large selection. Attentive and friendly service. Highly recommended!

The ox loin was really delicious. Perfectly seasoned and aromatic and especially good with the dips on the side. Definitely order to share for 2 people, impossible to do alone and just gluttony.

Were here in a large group. Friendly team The food just tasted too cold, which was a shame for €75.

The map is smaller in winter! Despite it! Everything like food, drinks, service etc. can be described in one word! TERRIFIC!

Friendly staff, delicious food and excellent beer. The beer was a bit expensive and the chairs were a bit uncomfortable.

This evening I was in the brewhouse with my senior group (43 to 50 years). Really great atmosphere but the absolute highlight was the courteous and attentive waiter Okan. Thank you for this extraordinarily fun evening!

Great location, especially on days when the Lions are playing. One of the best beers Munich has to offer.

We were with a group at the Giesinger Bräustüberl. We had a great place and felt comfortable. All the waiters were very friendly and we never had to wait long for new drinks. The vegan food was excellent and I would definitely order it again but also highly recommend it. Payment also went perfectly and everything was spot on. But a table must be reserved as all seats were occupied during the week. All in all it was great.

small up-and-coming brewery that will hopefully soon have an Oktoberfest tent 🥳

My reservation for 20 people was handled very well. Service, food, beers, friendliness - everything is great!

Delicious food and the best Munich beer. Generally very good beer selection.

Excellent food, lots of vegetarian, vegan and allergy friendly choices. Very warm, attentive service and of course good beer. I'm looking forward to next time.

I was here with friends last weekend and pretty much the whole evening. It's very comfortable and I immediately felt at home. Our waiter Okcan was very nice and always looked after us well, even though it was full. There are many types of Giesinger beer, Giesinger Erhellung is my clear favorite, but maybe I'll try a few other types next time. I didn't order food, but my friends did. I'd love to come back.

As always, it was very tasty and everything happened very quickly.

good food, friendly staff and decent beer. More of this in Muc please!

The Giesinger Bräustüberl leaves a mixed impression. The ambience is great – you immediately feel at home here! 🙌🏼🍻 The food is visually a real eye-catcher and lovingly prepared, but the taste was not entirely convincing. 😕🍽 The cheese spaetzle was bland and barely seasoned, the roast pork was very fatty and streaky. The service could be friendlier, some of the staff seemed a bit arrogant, which dampened the mood 😬🙄 Unfortunately, the price of the whole thing is in the upper range, which weakens the overall package somewhat. For two dishes and two beers 45€ - too expensive for the quality offered! 🫥 Overall it's only enough for 2 stars - there's still room for improvement!

Very tasty food (blood and liver sausage with delicious sauerkraut), very attentive service. Unfortunately, a reservation without an extra follow-up reservation is actually only valid for 2 hours and the table is then given away again.

Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience at the Giesinger Bräustüberl today. The beer and the ambience are great. Giesinger also knows how to market himself well. However, we were not completely satisfied with the food - we had the Giesinger Wirtshauspfandl. Unfortunately, the red cabbage was only lukewarm, the roast pork was slightly dry, there was clearly not enough sauce and the portion wasn't big enough for two people (at a price of just under €30 per person). Unfortunately, the service from a young waiter with shoulder-length brown hair who unfortunately displayed an arrogant demeanor did not improve our experience. We sat at the table for a long time with empty glasses, were then told that the red cabbage only had to be lukewarm and were then relatively harshly asked to pay with "card here" during the payment process. Basically, Giesinger is definitely doing a lot right. Only today we were anything but satisfied and would definitely not recommend it or come back.

Small but mighty. Top draft beer, unfiltered is a hit

Great atmosphere perfect coffee
