GRAPES Weinbar in München

Das Ambiente ist schön und das Tartar das Beste was wir jemals hatten. allerdings war der Service leider nicht gut. In einer Weinbar erwarte ich, dass man hinsichtlich des Weins beraten wird, wenn schon keine Informationen in der Karte stehen. Wenn dann zwei verschiedene Weine als „trocken“ bezeichnet werden hilft das nicht bei der Auswahl und wirkte nicht so als wüsste man Bescheid. Uns wurde auch nicht nachgeschenkt und obwohl die Gläser leer waren wurden wir nicht gefragt ob wir noch was trinken möchten. Die Dessertkarte haben wir, trotz Nachfrage, auch nicht bekommen.

Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Schöne Atmosphäre, sehr aufmerksamer und professioneller Service, Speisen sehr lecker und Getränke auch top. Klare Empfehlung. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Mega freundlich, aufmerksamer Service, immer wieder top

Ein rundum perfekter Abend, vielen lieben Dank für den tollen Service!

Hervorragende Weine, auch offen (by the glasl), sehr gute Küche mit handgemachten Gerichten, auch vegetarisch, überschaubare, hochwertige Speisekarte. Freundliches, zugewandtes Personal. Für jeden Geldbeutel etwas.

Sehr sehr freundlicher Service und schöne Atmosphäre! :)

Es ist schade, dass die Tische mittlerweile so eng gestellt sind, dass man unmittelbar an den Nachbarn sitz. Es ist schwer, sich überhaupt auf die Sitzbank zu schlängeln. Es wirkt so, als hätte man einfach einen Tisch mehr platziert (im Vergleich zu früher).

Diese Weinbar ist immer einen Besuch wert. Eine hervorragende Weinauswahl und ein hervorragender Service.

Eine tolle Weinbar zu zweit oder mit Freunden auf ein gutes Glas Wein und kleinen Snacks. Die Weine sind Top und die Preisrange beginnt moderat bis open end. Die Karte an Speisen ist klein und so sind auch die Portionen. Satt essen geht nicht wirklich bei den Preisen. Die Speisen verstehen sich eher als Weinbegleitung. Das Grapes will eine Weinbar bleiben und das ist auch gut so. Wir haben hier schon viele gute Weine entdeckt. Die Sommelier verstehen ihr Handwerk, also lasst Euch beraten und probiert mal was aus. Wir sind damit bisher immer gut gefahren.

Perfekt! Exzellente Bedienung. Klase Ambiente! Sehr gut - wie immer!

Die Weinauswahl, auch an offenen Weinen, ist hervorragend und wohlüberlegt. Das Essen ist originell komponiert, geradlinig (kein Firlefanz) und hervorragend zubereitet. Der Service ist aufmerksam und kundenorientiert. Von den teureren Weinen bekommt man einen Probelschluck, bevor man sich entscheidet.

Sehr schöne Location. Essen war okay. Zum Tatar zwei kleine Ciabatta gröstete war nicht so wirklich gut. Dunkles Brot würde wirklich besser dazu passen. Überhaupt wurde mit dem Brot sehr sparsam umgegangen. Bedienung war sehr nett, nachdem es voll war ein bisschen überfordert. Eine wahnsinns Weinkarte. Allerdings sind die Weine etwas zu teuer, wenn man bedenkt, dass die selben Weine aus dem Rheingau, der Pfalz etc. um einiges günstiger angeboten werden.

Very pleasant atmosphere - top service!

Great wine selection, delicious food, and really friendly staff. I'll definitely be back.

We were guests at the Cortiina and wanted to wind down the evening in the wine bar. The ambiance is lovely and the conversation is pleasant. The cheese platter we ordered was simple but very tasty. The bread arrived warm and was truly divine; highly recommended, and up until that point, it had been a lovely evening. My mother-in-law herself comes from a fine-dining background and pointed out to the staff member that the wine glasses weren't clean. Yes, you know, it was the dishwasher. No apology, no suggestion to bring another glass, etc., was made. But they made us feel like we had said something, and the service was over. It's a shame that the small criticism was interpreted that way.

Had my first date here last week. The food was amazing—we ordered a lot, and everything was delicious. The wine selection is very good, and the service is very attentive and courteous. It was a wonderful evening, and I hope we'll be back soon ❤️🥰

An exceptional wine bar offering truly outstanding wines. The food selection doesn't disappoint either. Every Monday, they offer veal schnitzel Monday. Highly recommended.

The place is very nice and they have a big selection of wine.

Update 2025: I went back and had a much better experience. My complaints from the past did not persist and actually had a good time! The wine was very good. The service was way too pushy and we even received some snarky comments when we were a bit surprised about being pushed a bottle of water. Aside from that, we didn't receive any insight on the wines at all. Definitely not worth paying 6-10€ a glass for a service that is there to just push you overpriced water.

The GRAPES wine bar in the heart of Munich's Old Town impresses with a first-class wine selection and warm, expert advice. The stylish, cozy atmosphere invites you to feel at home. The extensive, award-winning wine list makes wine tasting an experience. The prices are quite reasonable by Munich standards. The fine snacks are also well-chosen. Beginners are perfectly guided, and the service is attentive and friendly.

Perfect choice of the best wines. Calm and relaxing atmosphere. Very good prepared dishes. Last but not least kind and professional staff. Recommendable 100%

Wiener Schnitzel ist besser als in Wien, Weinauswahl wie immer famos

Beyond excellent service. The (blonde) woman that catered us was the most kind, elegant and mannered professional I’ve encountered in the hospitality service for a while.

Wie immer sehr angenehm und eine der besten Wein Bars in München.

Great service, good wines and great snacks

Food was actually pretty good, great wine selection however very pricey! Service was good but not excellent especially regarding wine expertise...

Simply perfect. It was a fantastic evening. Nina, Bernd, Shubham, and the others in the service department – we sincerely thank you! Absolutely top-notch sommeliers who truly understand their craft and know what service really means. The kitchen too – high praise. Best wishes to the entire team. Keep up the good work. Wow.

Exquisite wine list, excellent service, highly attentive and knowledgeable, but not intrusive or annoying

Amazing selection of finest wines and super friendly staff

Top Service, super Weinempfehlung und herausragendes Schnitzel!

Nice, modern courtyard bar/bistro. Great selection of small producer wines by glass - good quality, slightly high prices. Food more average, both in terms of price and quality. Plating was thoughtful, but at least the tartar was lukewarm - house sourdough bread was excellent. Service was very friendly and the waiter / sommelier seemed to know the wines.

Ein toller Abend im Aussenbereich mit sehr gutem Essen, vor allem, ein unbeschreiblich zuvorkommender Service. Danke an das Team

A gem in the heart of the city 🤩

We unfortunately didn't have a great wine experience here. The service and location was excellent, however the two wines we tried were both very single note, too tanniny dry and felt like they needed to be aged longer. Disappointed, especially for the 15+ price per glass

Great restaurant and wine bar. Excellent service and highly recommended.

Too crowded little space bad layout couldn’t get served so left sorry

A restaurant with an attractive interior that makes you immediately feel at home. The wine list is also well-stocked, prices corresponding to the location of the restaurant. But then unfortunately things go steeply downhill. Starter: wild herb salad, which is essentially bland green leaf lettuce with asparagus trimmings and a few crumbs of cheese. Despite the overly acidic vinaigrette, it remains bland. The salmon trout is completely cooked through, but the spinach is also over-salted and the whole arrangement is drowning in a fat-dripping sauce, to which you seriously need to add a tablespoon. Meanwhile, the service looks on with an expression as if it had already become clear during the staff meal what was going to be on the plates today. The Boeuf Bourguignon could no longer be found on the menu in the restaurant, but it could be found on the Internet. (This is this new territory with the current information…) Conclusion: a skilled interior designer and a full wine cellar does not make a good cook.

Great wine list. Very good service.

The wine tasted good, and the food was okay. However, I found the staff a bit rude and pushy, as if they were forcing me to either buy more or leave. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Since I wanted to reserve a large table for a bachelorette party, I emailed the manager in advance. The email communication with Ms. Darius was incredibly fast, very pleasant and she was extremely open about my ideas for the evening. So it was no problem to reserve the table for the entire evening or to decide on two of the four courses in advance and let the guests decide on the rest spontaneously. When we got there, Ms. Darius herself was there, managed our table and served us. She knew everything that was discussed and always contacted me if I had any questions. She and the other staff provided great service and were extremely attentive. It wasn't a problem that not everyone wanted a main course/dessert. She herself suggested that you could also order these courses to share. The food and wine were extremely delicious. Personally, I have no idea about wine, but some of the wine experts in my group said that the selection was great and that you could find something for all tastes. When my sister asked which was her favorite spot of her bachelorette party (we were on the road for a total of 5 days in two different cities and were lucky enough to have incredibly delicious food in every restaurant), she told me Grapes, which I think speaks for itself. I can only wholeheartedly recommend the wine bar. Everything discussed worked perfectly, the atmosphere in the store is super cozy, the food is very well balanced and the staff is incredibly friendly. Without question, we will definitely come back just like that and I would plan an “event” at Grapes again in a heartbeat. Plus you absolutely can't complain about the price-performance ratio. Thanks to the entire team for giving the entire group such a lovely evening.

Very chic and attractively designed wine bar with nice seating, a classic bar area and friendly, young staff. The same applies to the audience structure, which was very mixed and lively despite being an establishment attached to the hotel. All of the dishes were of extremely high quality, not only visually but also in terms of taste. The same applies to the extensive sparkling wine and wine list, so we left nothing to be desired, which was also due to the good and knowledgeable advice. The service was also extremely charming, pleasant, quick and, above all, very professional. In any case, I will be happy to come back soon, thank you for the lovely evening!

Great and very delicious wine varieties 😊🍷

Super nice service, great food, great ambience & great wine of course! One of my favorite places in Munich

A very nice evening spent with great wines and great service.

good wine list but should be careful who they let in lastly really unpleasant drunk people at the bar

That was an experience again! Thank you Patrick! Hope you have something new for your diary ;) It's rare to experience service like this these days! Thanks I'll be back ;) Lg Angie

We had a completely successful evening. Great, cozy atmosphere. Plus delicious food and great wine.

Ended up here after bailing on a beer hall. Such a better choice for our last night in Munich. And very grateful for their walk in communal table. Cozy, sophisticated, warm atmosphere, with some great art. Looks like a nice patio in the summer too. Wine was unsurprisingly, great. The menu spanned a few cultures (some French, Spanish, and Mediterranean), but dishes from all were excellent. Cauliflower hummus and beef bourguignon were wonderful on a cozy cold night. Bread was a little too good. Service seemed a little slow/harried but it was a busy night, with a lot of people at the big centre table. No one seemed to mind hanging around too much. Would come back, and reserve one of the big couch-style bench tables.

Tolles Essen, sehr netter Service, Musik etwas zu laut. Sonst perfekt.

Very good food and very good wine list. The service was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!

Ein schöner Abend mit gepflegtem Wein und guten Kleinigkeiten zum Essen

Einer der besten Weinkeller Münchens, sehr gutes Essen und ein toller Service. Der Sommelier kennt sein Weine und berät sehrt gut.

It is a very nice restaurant. The service is very friendly, courteous and attentive. The wine selection is very large and there is something for every taste. A positive thing to mention is that you can taste the wine before it is poured. The food is also good, but not of the same quality as the wine. You can tell that the focus is on the wine selection - hence a star deduction. It should be noted that this is a high-priced restaurant. A good wine can be relatively expensive. Therefore, as a tip - pay attention to this when choosing. However, in my opinion it is always worth a visit based on the points mentioned.

The food is only secondary here, although the snacks are really tasty, the star guest is the wine list. The great team around Diego does a great job, despite all the hectic pace, they are always friendly, always attentive and incredibly competent. Always good for new and great experiences, no matter how often I come, there is always something delicious to discover. Keep it up, see you soon.

Out fav wine bar in Munich - fab collection of wines, warm hospitality, and a short but pretty awesome food

Great bar - delicious food and excellent service

Tolle Location - phantastisches Essen und erlesene Weine. Der Service ist freundlich und kompetent!

Great service and small but nice menu . And superb wines by the glass

Our family of 7 spent Christmas Eve here, and could not have chosen any better. We had a fixed menu which was super delicious, maybe the best meal of our 10 day trip to Munich and Salzburg. The food, wine and beer were pleasing to all. The atmosphere was upscale and very cozy, with wonderful service the entire evening.

Insgesamt kann man fünf Sterne geben. Die Weinauswahl ist riesig und die Beratung ist sehr professionell. Service ist sehr angenehm und sorgfältig ausgesucht für die Weinbar. Die Speisen sind qualitative und äußerlich sehr einladend. Dem Tatar und Seviche fehlt etwas Pfiff.  Die Antwort von Personal darauf war allerdings nicht überzeugend und möcht ich hier nicht erwähnen.. Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert für eine gute Wein,erfahrung und leichteres Essen . Bravo

Dank Charlotte hatten wir einen wunderbaren Tisch! So muss das neue Jahr beginnen, vielen Dank an das gesamte Team! Happy New Year

After an hour of waiting to pay the bill, another nice surprise: the “greetings from the kitchen” that no one had ordered but was brought to share (basically a nice gesture) - was of course added to the bill. Creative, but not in the sense of customer orientation. So if you want bad service, surprises and spontaneous additional costs, this is the right place for you.

We were here for an evening with friends. Huge wine selection with great advice. The choice of food is limited but the food we ordered was excellent. It was really a highlight. The restaurant has very tight seating, but the atmosphere from the light to the fire is very cozy. Overall, a really great location! Recommended

Grapes: 🔵I added the menu to the photos. Prices are a little high. 🔵The service is friendly and fast. They briefly explain the wines before serving them. 🔵It's nice to be able to buy wines by the glass so you can taste them. 🔵My review for the food is average: There were 3 types of cheese, 2 each, on the cheese plate. I think it's not enough. You need to order the bread separately The portion of tartar was small and did not have an intense taste. I've had better tartares. 🔵The atmosphere is warm and friendly. It has dim lighting. It also has a fireplace. You can come here to taste different wines, but the food side is weak.

Einfach ein schöner Ort. Sehr gutes Essen, noch bessere Weinauswahl und sehr kompetente und freundliche Angestellte. Sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man etwas besonderes sucht.

Toller Service und schicke Location - super gemütlich mit einem Kamin

Es war unfassbar laut, da vor uns am dem Community Table eine Gruppe von >20 Leuten war. Daher laut und voll weil die Gruppe natürlich hin und her gelaufen ist.

We really enjoyed the evening with friends... a big compliment to the kitchen and service. 👍👍

Great wine advice! Red wine from Würtemberg! Friendly service! Excellent wine bar!

Great fillet steak. Probably the best I've ever eaten. Otherwise, a great atmosphere, a huge wine list and very courteous service. Gladly again.

This wine bar was fantastic and very centrally located. Everything was priced well and we got to try a lot of wines from all over Europe.

This is a quaint little wine bar inside the Cortiina Hotel. The servers were very attentive and assisted with making excellent wine selections. The menu was somewhat limited but there was a good variety and everything was delicious!

One of the most important and best addresses in the city for wine expertise. Exceptional and large selection of “by the glass” wines. Very competent staff and fine cuisine. I always enjoy coming here when I'm in town.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Abend. Danke an den tollen Service! Wir kommen gerne wieder.

This wine bar is a must for every wine lover and everyone who wants to become one. The service is knowledgeable and will be happy to advise you professionally. The atmosphere is super relaxed and pleasant, the staff are extremely friendly and the wine list is a dream for anyone who loves wine. You rarely see something like that, and especially not outside of a star restaurant. Thank you very much and keep it up!

I am quite often at Grapes, such lovely environment. Great quality and service!

Great ambiance for wine & snacks with friends - especially the bread and butter from Julius Brantner 😂

The bar itself is good and the food is very tasty and fresh. What's really annoying, however, is the noise in the bar. You can hardly have a conversation and you're actually happy when the food is served quickly, you eat it and leave.

Explore the small streets and alleys, explore and search, and be inexplicably excited in this city. We walked to the beer garden and entered the bar in the alley. The first floor of Hotel Lux was full of people. The GRAPES Weinbar diagonally opposite was a temporary bar. I had two drinks each. My first drink was 2021 Tire-Bouchon - Domaine dOuréa, Rhône...7.50, E's first cup 2020 Lemberger Altenberg - Knauss, Wirttemberg... 16.50. Our second glass of 2014 Château La Croix Bellevue - Jean-Louis Trocard, Lalande-de-Pomerol... 9.50. The atmosphere is very good, 95% of the people are there, sitting two seats by the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the street view and chatting. Talking about Zalto's wine glass, one glass costs 2,500 oceans...

Great spot! Recommend visiting for Schnitzel Monday

Wir waren zum Montag/ Schnitzeltag dort. Alles war sehr gut und Diego hat uns super freundlich und gut gelaunt bedient. Die Weinempfehlung war super - wie man es in einer sehr guten Weinbar erwartet. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Yesterday we spent a very nice evening at Grapes. We had the opportunity to try some wines. The wine list offers a wide selection, we limited ourselves to Austria. There are also some small snacks and tarte flambées. The service and advice from the sommelier were very good.

Very nice and helpful staff. Good food and good wines to go with it. The staff were very good at finding matches that suit everyone in the party. The traditional Flammekuche was delicious and the veal cooked to perfection. The chocolate cake was the fluffiest I've ever eaten, not nearly as powerful as they can be. The custard tasted homemade. The room is fresh and nicely decorated. I really recommend Grapes Weinbar and would love to come back!

We were there again, this time on “Schnitzeltag”. In short, everything was great and we would be happy to come back.

Rarely have we experienced such excellent service. Also very good wine and very good food.

Absolut eine der besten Weinkarte Münchens. Top Winzer vertreten!

Herzlichen Dank für den erstklassigen Service. Empfehlenswert,

Wir kommen wieder👍excellente Auswahl an Weinen, sehr freundliches Personal

Great Wine Restaurant in Munich. Excellent food and wine options. Friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Sehr gute Weinauswahl. Einfaches aber gutes Essen, passend zum Wein! Aufmerksames Personal.

The Grapes wine bar in Munich is an absolute highlight for wine lovers. The service is first class - the staff is not only friendly, but also extremely knowledgeable and always strives to provide guests with an unforgettable experience. Particularly noteworthy is the impressive wine selection, which includes both regional and international wines and suits every taste. The owner, Bernd from Großwilfersdorf in Styria, is a real professional and an incredibly friendly host. You can feel his passion for wine in every detail of the bar. He is happy to provide guests with advice and support and always recommends new, exciting wines that you should definitely try. The atmosphere of the Grapes wine bar is very pleasant and invites you to linger. The atmospheric lighting and the tasteful furnishings create a cozy atmosphere in which you immediately feel at home. The whole thing is accompanied by great music, which is perfect for relaxing and enjoying a good glass of wine. All in all, Grapes Wine Bar is an absolute must for anyone traveling in Munich who values ​​excellent wine, excellent service and a relaxed atmosphere. A visit to Bernd and his team is always worth it!

Wir waren mit 5 Personen zu Gast und freuten uns über die tolle, vielfältige Weinkarte und die schmackhaften korrespondierenden Gerichte. Der Service war sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Kommen schon sehr lange und gerne ins Grapes und wollten mit dieser Bewertung unseren Dank, für den schönen Abend und die vorangegangen Danke sagen! 😎

my trusted place for good wine!

There aren’t that many special boutique hotels in Munich. This is one of them. So does his wine bar. A mild, warm summer evening invites you to relax in the garden of the Grapes wine bar. The very attentive staff selects a special place with us. The beer as an aperitif is a great concession to local customs. The mixed starters were awesome, the cheese variation was super tasty, the flame cuisine tasted like it was fresh from Alsace, the Iberico ham was almost a record. So it came several times... the antipasti variation of vegetables was a vegetarian highlight. Everything was rounded off by a wonderfully soft Chardonnay. For dessert lovers, the chocolate tart comes in handy, as does the crispy crumble mixture and the panna cotta blast at the end. What a chilled spot in this magnificent city.

Immer wieder ein genussvolles Erlebnis mit kulinarischen Köstlichkeiten und tollen Weinen

The service was fantastic. The wine list was very extensive and they had some lovely options by the glass as well.

Spontaneous Friday night visit. Elegant destination for wine enthusiasts, inside Cortiina hotel, in the heart of Munich Old City. Modern yet minimalist space with dimmed lights, with an intimate atmosphere that is very inviting for a glass or two. Menu offers a wide range of wines with small bites as well as proper dishes. Was not hungry, so went for asparagus soup, which I paired with a glass of delicate South-African Poffader — simply divine. Plus point: staff gladly accommodated our special requests to ensure the best possible experience. Will come again.

The service here is really very good, you always get information about the wines or recommendations if you express certain wishes. You can usually try it first before pouring it properly. The selection of dishes is clear, but fits. Unfortunately the quality here is not very high. The food is served on warm plates, but is only lukewarm itself. Sauces tasted artificially thickened. Despite the already high prices, the bread addition has to be paid extra. Even if the bread is from Julius Brantner, in my opinion everything has its limits. The wine prices aren't exactly cheap either. The overall ambience is actually nice, but every millimeter is used. The tables are very close together and the chairs are beyond uncomfortable. Unfortunately, there is no kind of feel-good atmosphere.

Die Grapes Weinbar in München bietet ein herausragendes Erlebnis für Weinliebhaber. Der Service ist äußerst aufmerksam und zuvorkommend, was den Besuch zu einem echten Genuss macht. Die Weinkarte ist beeindruckend und bietet neben den klassischen Auswahlmöglichkeiten auch spannende Überraschungen bei den offenen Weinen. Das Ambiente ist angenehm und ermöglicht eine private Atmosphäre, sodass man sich ungestört unterhalten kann. Insgesamt strahlt die Weinbar viel Stil aus und ist definitiv einen Besuch wert.

Every time a pleasure with the best wine list in Munich!
