Käfer Bistro in Oberding

Delicious food and service. Our server Alexandru went above and beyond with making sure we had a great meal. Was very open to help us with any changes we wanted to our meal and it came out fantastic!

Best place to forget about your lost flight. Good food, good beer, and Alexandru is doing an excellent job. Highly recommend!

The food was good but the price-quality ratio was not good

Unfortunately, the service seemed a bit out of touch. The food was good but a bit expensive.

From Kemal Abi. Fire this cheeky and arrogant guy. Everyone likes it.

I was charged twice for my meal, my card was charged twice the amount I had to pay

Disrespectful staff, double-charging for pepper sauces. Get rid of that arrogant, snobby chef.

Two pepper sauces instead of one, charged twice – wow, premium service at a premium price. The waiter? Arrogant enough to make a mirror jealous. The food was okay, but the rest was pure pepper.

The food was okay, but the service was completely unprofessional and unprofessional. The cafeteria isn't worth its name!

Very poor food for price but it’s fast , service is good , climate is nice .

The prices aren't Duty Free!!!!! Over €30 for a breaded escalope. But the dishes are quite generous and well prepared.

I ordered cheese cake brûlée, it was delicious. Nice restaurant, friendly staff.

Food was decent but service is lacking. The venue was busy when I arrived. My family and I noticed that there was not enough staff to manage the amount of customers. We were seated by someone who looked like the manager. When we were ready to order, we tried to get a nearby staff's attention but he looked at us and shook his head and yelled "nein!". We thought maybe he was not working in our section and we should have waited for a different staff member. But 10 minutes later he came to our table to take our order anyway. He seemed quite mad when taking our order. Food came quickly and we enjoyed it. But it was very clear that the staff were overwhelmed by the amount of customers and it negatively impacted their service

Updated on the 26th of August. I revisited the restaurant after my initial visit in July, and first of all, the issue with the service I reported earlier has been resolved — a big plus. I arrived at 10:55 and wanted to order the English breakfast, but the waiter who took my order around 11:02 told me it was already unavailable. I know we’re in Germany, but a two-minute cutoff feels a bit too strict. In any case, I decided to order the same dish I had in July: bratwurst with sauerkraut and potato purée. Last time, it was very good, but this time everything was swimming in sauerkraut juice, and the sauerkraut itself had a strange sweetish taste. I’ll be back in October. Let’s see how things improve by then.

We were on our way to Portugal and, of course, in a good mood. Our stop at the "Käfer Bistro" lifted our spirits even further thanks to our wonderful and humorous waitress, Carmela. She was professional and charming. That's always the way to start a vacation. Thank you!

The Käfer Restaurant at Munich Airport offers a pleasant atmosphere for a layover. The food is fresh and high-quality, with a nice selection of Bavarian and international dishes. The presentation of the dishes and the friendliness of the staff are particularly noteworthy. The prices are slightly above average, but that's to be expected at an airport. During busy times, service can occasionally take a little longer, but you'll still feel well looked after. Overall, a recommended place to relax and enjoy a meal before your flight.

Very tasteful food and amazing staff. Very good experience.

Fabulous meat, decent beers, Friendly and attentive service.

I had food at this restaurant and the dinner and desert was amazing , very tasty , good portion, and amazing service. I had such a good service by Oprea. He is such a good person so kind and serviceminded. I recommend anyone visiting munchen this restaurant, it’s amazing. I travel alot recently and this is the best food I had in an airport. 10/10. Also the food was quick, so here i felt very relaxed.

Very bad service. The waiter scolded us because we put the glasses on the table we wanted on the other table (also dirty). It's not our job to clean tables; we wanted to sit down. They also served people who arrived after us. We got tired of waiting and left without ordering anything. Very bad service. Overpriced. A very bad place. I'll never go back. I know it doesn't make a difference because they didn't even serve me.

Thank you, Mr. Rrakulli, for your humor! Remember "sechs" not sex! LOL … Excellent service! Good food for an airport!

The waiter working there was not nice. He made rude and sarcastic comments about us leaving the restaurant, even though we had ordered drinks and were thinking about ordering food. He talked back to the other waiters about us and discussed when they could throw us out. He kept hinting that we had to order food, with rude looks. The whole experience made the atmosphere feel bad, as the service was so terrible. We ended up leaving before we could order food.

A good place to have a beer at Munich Airport in the Lufthansa Terminal.

Server took 15 minutes just to bring me the menu, then proceeded to ignore me and prioritize other tables of people that came after me.

A visit to Käfer at Terminal 2 in Munich is part of our vacation ritual. A wheat beer, a glass of sparkling wine, and fries...always a pleasure. Admittedly, it's expensive, but that's just how it is at airports...you can't change it.

Munich Airport Terminal 2, Bistro/Restaurant: - Waited 5-10 minutes to be assigned a seat. The waiters actively ignored me even though there were seats available. I then left the waiting position to see if the following guests were having the same experience. There weren't any! I got back in line. Then I was assigned a seat, but with a commanding comment from the waiter telling me to look more enthusiastic (I didn't comment further and took a seat). Ordered a shandy and a schnitzel. The shandy had a stale taste. When I asked for a new one, the same waiter replied that it couldn't possibly be stale and moved on to the next table. A few minutes later, I still received a new shandy without comment. Then the schnitzel was served with the comment (from the same waiter) that I could also say thank you. I replied that he wasn't my teacher/educator and that I was a guest there. He then replied (now serving the neighboring table) that in this case, it seemed he had to be. He shook his head and made the sign of the cross(!). His tone was abusive and aggressive. I then asked for the bill and left. After two bites of schnitzel and a full spare radler, of course, everything was charged. My opinion: disrespectful, unprofessional, malicious, gutter-level. I've never experienced anything like it. Apparently, at Käfer, they divide people's worth according to taste. I was the lower class. PS: Schnitzel with tendons

I recommend Alexandru for a perfect service!!!

Pros: - Plenty of seating - Close to the gates - The food was very good - The atmosphere is quite pleasant Cons: - The service was pretty bad - You have to wait to be seated, but the waiter almost never comes to seat you - It feels like waiting forever for everything We had breakfast here because we had a two-hour layover in Munich. A sign outside the restaurant says you have to wait to be seated, so that's fine. We were quite lucky and waited about five minutes. It wasn't busy, many tables were empty, but the waiter in charge of the front area had virtually no interest in seating guests. While we were sitting at our tables, over ten people left because the waiter simply didn't come to seat them. In general, the waiter's service took some getting used to; it was very brief, unfriendly, and never asked questions. There was no salt with the eggs, and there was nothing on the table either. We waited a long time to pay, and while we were paying, he walked away. The Munich breakfast was very good, and the eggs and bacon were also delicious. The food is highly recommended, but the service was very poor. The price is okay for an airport.

Food is good but the service was super slow which is not tolerable for an airport venue.

First the waiter doesn't understand that we want eggs, sausages and bacon, so we get eggs and bacon. Fair enough. Misunderstandings happen. Then sausages are ordered immediately, here you expect it to be quick, but no. The cup overflowed when paying when he insisted on a tip, and I said I won't give that, he hasn't provided any service so he has to live with his salary He said they can't complete a transaction without a tip, that must be their problem I said

With your Mr. Wellermann, you have a wonderful and highly attentive employee. He made us feel very welcome and cared for in every way. Such a pleasant employee makes our stay twice as relaxing. Many thanks, Tom and Carola.

Great food, Kafer Curry was a winner and the beers were hearty?

Expensive meal in small quantities.

Very expensive (airport prices, of course), but the service is truly excellent, friendly, and courteous, with a good mood. The atmosphere is very pleasant.

It has a big name/reputation as various other Munich brands are represented at the airport. Service is friendly and efficient. Ambiance is pleasant and classy. Unfortunately, the cappuccino was not made by a barista but with a full auto machine. This resulted in poor foam quality (no proper micro foam) not in line with the brand appeal. It may be a result of the struggle to get qualified staff or just prioritising efficiency over quality since it's "only" an airport.

The soup was delicious! The price, €12.50, was OK, and the service was great! It would be better if the soup cost €9. That's just my feeling.

A bit pricy, but really good food. Try the potato soup. Yum!

The food although too expensive was good. The waiter was not gentle, and if I'm being honest even a bit rude. Especially when I was paying the check he asked for a tip in a impolite and sharp manner.

The waiter is cheating on the bill , adding tips without asking, I don’t care of the money but very bad , he gave it back to me in cash … poor service and very arrogant waiter , often in the airport but last time in this restaurant

Supposedly high quality. Coffee from an automatic machine. Sad.

Delicious food and fast service

Since we were leaving quite early, we had a quick cappuccino at the airport. Expensive and not exactly classy.

This cannot be a decent capachino. I had an over heated, rancid smelly bean, milked down the capachino for 5€. It came out straight out of their readymade machine, even though they had a perfectly nice barista coffee machine that was there for the show. I came to Käfer because of their culinary reputation in the city, but I have to say this is my first and last time here, better find a place that knows how to make a decent cup of coffee. Also it's true as many people pointed out, service is unspectacular and the personnel need some training.

The food is super delicious. The service is also super good. Greetings from Martijn the super satisfied customer

We wanted to while away the time with a delicious beer. Unfortunately, it was wasted by a super-long wait for service. The place wasn't really busy. It was just the two of us at the bar, but no one seemed to care about us. No questions about drinks, nothing. We asked for service twice, but no one was in charge of the bar. There were four employees behind the bar at times, but unfortunately, no one was in charge. They preferred to have fun, chat, etc. In the end, we drank four beers and paid for two. Why? Because no one was in charge and had an overview. They simply don't take their job seriously!

Server told us to sit down and we took the only table in the front. She said, "oh it's dirty but it ok," and never even wiped it. They only pour chincy beer servings far below the line on the glass and the pretzels were almost stale. They should have said no pretzels available. Only ready for 2nd star is some of them are friendly.

The veel schnitzel was expensive and full of oil, the potato with radish was the same as the ones u find in plastic containers in the supermarket, the service was ok'ish. If u are really hungry, u can try.

Good food and friendly service. But the restaurant seems understaffed, resulting in long wait times.

Very nice place. I chose the main specialty (schnitzel) and was not disappointed. I received my order quickly. The gentlemen from the service were also very nice. Thank you very much and if I am in Munich I will visit you again.

On our way back from Munich, flight got delayed !! There were a few choices for lunch at the airport and we chose Kafer , it was busy and bustling. Staff were friendly and keeping up with the busy place . Good selection of food and drinks.Ordered Original Nürnberger Ristbratwurstl and salad along with a couple of vodkas. Food was delicious and hearty.

Two sausages and a pretzel for 15€ wow what a joke. The staff was unpleasant too

Worst experience at Kaefers, three times , one after the other, single travellers taking seat at empty table and always waiter is rushing by “ take a seat at the bar , as we have not enough free tables “, probably never heard of that individuals can share a table the same way as the they would share the seats at the crowded bar, if you like to be seated at the table give him 5 bucks and all done

While we waited for our connecting flight, we dined at the Käfer Bistro. A very sophisticated atmosphere and a friendly server. We had a roast pork with bread dumplings and cabbage, and my wife had a vegetable curry with strips of meat. This was accompanied by an Erdinger Hefe-Krumm (alcohol-free beer). The food was very good and plentiful. Therefore, it's highly recommended, as the atmosphere was also very pleasant.

Great food at reasonable prices, right at the G19-20 gates. The food arrived within 5 minutes of ordering. The quality is good despite the incredibly fast service. Great if you have a 2-3 hour layover and your connecting flight is nearby.

Coming back after one year the quality of the potata salad and Wiener Schnity it's not the same anymore....also they serve now the cranberrysin plastic like you get it in any breakfast buffet .....never less the service still amazing...Marlene is amazing ....friendly ....it's always nice to see her ..... The gentlemen in the service today was tooooo much stressed...May /14

Service is terrible. I was told walk in amd take a seat anywhere. I couldn't find a seat so I sat at the bar amd asked for a menu. The bartender told me I couldn't eat at the bar and that I should go find a table. So I get up walk around some more and eventually find a table. By this time I see other people eating at the bar, amd several other tables got waited on right next to me but not me even after I tried to flag someone. I'm sitting here 15 minutes now and still no one has come to take my order.

Its rude servise and they force to pay only with cash .No professional no good food

A waiter was very rude and informed us that they do not accept card payments. When I asked why, he simply replied that cash is the official payment method. There were empty, clean tables available, yet people were left standing in line for more than 10 minutes without any explanation. To make things worse, when he saw how frustrated we were by his behavior, they let other customers—who were behind us in line—go ahead, and those customers ended up paying by card. The food was average, and so was the portion size, although our order arrived quickly. We were in Munich on a business trip and had chosen this place expecting a smooth and professional experience, especially since we were already extremely tired. What truly saved the day, however, was a Greek waiter who stood out from the rest. He was incredibly kind, polite, and professional—he did everything he could to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Without him, the situation could have easily escalated—we were seriously considering calling the police over the treatment we received upon entering the restaurant. Respect and politeness are what separate us from animals. Sadly, most of the staff didn’t seem to understand that. Thanks to this one exceptional person, we walked away with at least one positive thing to remember.

We had a schnitzel and a pretzel at Kafer Bistro on Terminal 2 in Munich Airport. Both were not very good.

The concept doesn't work for me. We’re talking about one of Munich’s most famous delicatessens, L’eden. The service was terrible. 20 guests are waiting in front of the shop and there are 30 tables available. Twice guests sat down at our next table and left because they weren't served. Either Käfer has too much money or the staff is completely overwhelmed. If I were an entrepreneur, I would throw them all out. That is extremely damaging. Please change this immediately.

Pricey, but fast and friendly service, as well as tasty food. We had breakfast on the layover on the way out and dinner on the layover on the return journey.

We’ve tried several breakfast options, and the food was okay but nothing special. The service felt a bit rude and unwelcoming, with staff mostly attentive to German-speaking guests. Long waiting times and an uncomfortable atmosphere made the experience less enjoyable.

Expensive for a very small portion.

You won't be served in a timely manner here

Good restaurant in Munich airoport I had dinner many times and always satisfied about it. The food sonice and good prices.

Good Käfer quality The food was tasty and fresh The service was very good I would be happy to come again

Expensive breakfast. Service was terribly slow and the waiter ignored our multiple attempts to get the bill so we could make our flight, then was offended when we didn’t tip because how long we waited to pay.

Good choice, even special dishes, a little expensive for the cost and the French-German effect of the place. A little dark and stiff. Small Wiener Schnitzler for 29 euros.

There was hardly anything going on in the restaurant and I stood at the entrance for 10 minutes to get a seat. Just wanted a cappuccino before departure. I moved on.

Well, yes. The “Käfer” in the airport is not a flagship for Munich hospitality. Long wait until you can sit down in the half-full restaurant. Ordered some sea bream fillets with fatty vegetables for 34 euros. The Nuremberg bratwurst with some mashed potatoes and sauerkraut came out quite bland and weak (20 euros). We skipped the water for 9 euros. HB Helle for 6.50 euros was good as always.

A positive surprise. Traditional cuisine in the terminal. Tasty dishes, well seasoned. Nice service.

Fast and smiling service, very good food, sockets for connecting phone/pc, background music, high prices (escalope + coke zero €33) toilets right opposite.

Had a fantastic dining experience at Käfer Bistro in Munich International Airport (Terminal 2, Level 04) before our flight! My friend and I ordered a plate of sausages with mashed potatoes, and it was absolutely excellent—perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and a great taste of Bavarian cuisine. The beer and sparkling water were also very good, making for a well-rounded meal. The atmosphere of the bistro is warm and inviting, a great place to relax before traveling. Despite being in an airport, it doesn’t feel rushed or hectic. Instead, it’s a comfortable spot to sit, eat, and enjoy good food before a flight. A special mention to the amazing staff—they were very kind and helpful, taking the time to recommend dishes and ensuring we had a great experience. Their friendliness and attentiveness made a big difference! Overall, I highly recommend Käfer Bistro for anyone passing through Munich Airport. It’s a great place to enjoy authentic food with excellent service. Attaching photos of our meal because it looked as good as it tasted!

Great breakfast and great service.

Terrible...please don't order Wiener Schnitzel, it's bitter because of old fat...the meat is as hard as the sole of a shoe...never go to this dump again

A little taste of Munich inside the airport. We had the wienerschnitzel and Hofbrauhus dunklebier. Loved the food.

We had a good 2 hours until our flight and wanted to have a proper dinner. At first glance the prices may seem steep, but they are quite normal for an airport. We ordered crusted roast and Wiener schnitzel - both came very quickly, were really tasty and the portions were more than sufficient (which justified the prices). The service was great, the waiters were very friendly and attentive. Overall, for me it was by far the best airport restaurant so far and I had a lovely last evening at home.

Came for a beer after a long flight. The cashier was lovely.

The food was good, but the service was shockingly rude and unprofessional. We asked the waiter to split the bill, and his response was completely unacceptable. In a dismissive and impolite manner, he told us, "It's not my problem." When we asked him to find a solution, he claimed, "No one in Germany does that," and stated that we had to either pay the bill unsplit or "go to the police." When we requested to speak with the management, he claimed there were no managers available. However, upon entering the restaurant and speaking to his colleagues, the waiter began lying and denying his earlier behavior. Such disrespectful conduct overshadowed what could have been a pleasant dining experience. It’s disappointing that good food was paired with such appalling service.

Nothing special, food was OK but left with a bad taste after an elderly waiter made sarcastic comments in our direction about one of us not tipping. As far as I know tipping should be optional + not everybody can afford to tip considering the excruciating airport prices, sir.

Quick stop on a layover, we almost missed the flight but the food was very delicious, we ordered a Snitzel, an assortment of sausages and a couple of beers. Surely with more time we would have enjoyed them more.

Munich white sausage and a German pretzel - Darn tasty! My waitress was very pleasant and happy to help me practice my broken German. The music is a bit loud for my taste.

One of the better restaurants at the airport. The prices are up there but then again everything at the Munich airport is expensive. The food was good and the service friendly. Would recommend!

Decent food but nothing exceptional.

It's not hard to be amazed... For this renowned name and actually known good service, this morning was a failure: Waited 20 minutes for the opportunity to order... the table was completely sticky and some of the tables hadn't been cleared from breakfast. The lady then became snippy, completely unjustified

Wiener Schnitzel very tasty. I also liked the potato salad with radishes served in a set. I missed some greens, but it was still tasty. The prices are not cheap, but it is an airport after all. The service was ok, she cared about the customer.

Very friendly service. The roast was very good for my taste and the portion was large. The sauerkraut with it was also good. Price comparison reasonable.

Great service and the specialties are always good. Thank you very much to the team

Walk in and get a table. Asked a waiter if they served gluten free options. He rolled his eyes and opened the menu in annoyance: “There are vegan things here and a few there too.” Immediately got up, left and avoided for the rest of time.

Dedicated staff, tasty food. Well, it's expensive but that should be clear to everyone at the airport. If you don't want that, you just have to butter your sandwiches at home.

Pretty good for an airport option. The food is good quality with a number of vegetarian options clearly labeled. Decor is quaint and more appealing than the harsh airport lighting. Unfortunately, slow and slightly frantic service let's the place down a little. We took a late lunch when the team were reasonably busy but the service was disproportionately curt when we were eventually seen to.

Unfortunately, the cakes were absolutely not good and not of the usual Käfer quality. I was particularly irritated when I saw the exact same (visually striking) Sachertorte in the display at Dallmayer 10 meters away. I was actually expecting a beetle product...

I had a pleasant and relaxing time, with bratwurst and beer, a very german simple pleasure as I waited for my flight. I recommend this place and its competent, quick and kind staff.

Male server with curly brown hair was so rude from the moment I stepped inside, that I left immediately. I hope his life gets better

Noisy and the food was disappointing. We were harassed by the waitress for not leaving a tip

Wiener schnitzel is the very best... but service is the very worst. Waiters make me feel that everything is more important than their clients.

Almost 30 euros for a piece of meat is very pricey. Service is fast and helpful. Food is good.

The place was really nice, the food was awesome, I ordered the croissants for breakfast and they were delicious. The service was fast and the waitress was very nice.

We had the Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad twice for 29 EUR each.? One schnitzel was quite OK, the other portion was woven with tendons in both schnitzels. That's less fun given such a price. The waiter was very friendly and nice

We went to the Beetle for an early dinner before our flight. The service was good and the food was absolutely fine. Nevertheless, I have to note that the prices were very high for the very questionable cleanliness. I understand the high volume of traffic, but if it says Beetle on it, then you expect Beetle - in all areas. Overall it was ok, but I wouldn't necessarily go there again.
