Löwenbräukeller - Das Original in München

Umpahpah sing a long brass band for lots of fun!

Terrible place with terrible service. Would not recommend.

Fantastic food and great atmosphere.... Thursday Friday Saturday live music

Waiter added 20 euro-worth beer on the check, that we didn’t ask and didn’t drink. Unfortunately, we had to go to the train station and only noticed it later, could not go back and argue. I definitely do not recommend the place.

Service does not listen to your order. Twice I ordered a Maß, but got half a liter, or just another beer. The waiter did not bother to properly split the bill with the group. Unfortunately, that is the service I expect.

I recommend this restaurant, which immerses us in a typical, traditional German atmosphere from the moment we step inside! The service and staff are responsive, friendly, and helpful! Good value for money! It's a typical German restaurant! It's a great price-performance ratio! A great team!

Good restaurant and beer garden, has both indoor and outdoor dining areas. The fried goat cheese salad was probably one of the best salads I’ve ever eaten. The charcuterie platter was also very good; beer was decent.

We were there for a morning pint, but unfortunately the weather was bad, so we were only able to eat inside. Nevertheless, the building's history is very impressive, and you feel very comfortable there. The service was excellent; we, as Franconians, were well-treated. The food is okay, although in some places you can tell it's geared towards tourists. We'd be happy to go back!

The best restaurant in Munich. Live authentic Bavarian music and color. Light cozy atmosphere. Low prices and very tasty food. Fast and friendly service. Beautiful interior. Very convenient location.

Friendly staff. Very tasty and fresh food. I always get a double here, no need to book in advance. Highly recommended.

Value for money? More like a price-performance crime. For that money, I could have bought three frozen pizzas and still had some change left over for a bottle of wine—and that would probably have been the culinary salvation of the evening. Conclusion: If you're happy to pay a lot for little, this is the place for you. For everyone else, it's best to steer clear—or head straight to your favorite frozen food aisle.

The restaurant is like a mass-produced restaurant. The pancake soup is simply served with salty broth, but otherwise nothing special.

We came for dinner with 8 friends, hoping to try the famous beer and food but the experience was extremely disappointing. From the start, communication was difficult, and instead of helping us, the staff reacted with rudeness and impatience. We waited over an hour for our food, all while being treated with a consistently irritated and dismissive attitude. When they finally asked if they could serve the food, we still had to wait another 30 minutes before eating. Dessert? Forget it! the kitchen was already closed by 21:30, and we were simply told “too late.” Final bill? 45€ euro each for a plate and two beers? Absolutely not worth it. Unfriendly service, long waits, no flexibility. Never coming back.

Very slow service, took 30min to order and 40mins to get the food. Waiters were all rude and looked like they could not care less about customers. Would not recommend.

Good atmosphere in this typical restaurant on the eve of the Champions League final. The waitress raised the level of sociability of her colleague. We ate and drank very well (great beer) great value for money.

Portions are good, food was decent. There’s also opportunity to sit outside when the weather is good. Overall a good Bavarian experience.

Great food with friendly atmosphere.

Very poor service. We asked for red cabbage twice, but it wasn't served. The waitress never came to refill our drinks. We were only spoken to in English. Prices were outrageous for the tiny portions. The schnitzel was dripping with fat. Recommended only for tourists.

Provides the typical Bavarian beer hall experience, but not at a quality higher than what is found thousands of miles outside of the region at any replica. If you’re here in Munich, you should go elsewhere.

Great and amazing typical Germany food. The place is very nice!

Too bad because overall it was a nice evening, but the treatment of the middle-aged blond waiter was unacceptable. He never smiled at us, he threw dishes on the table all evening, including the POS to pay at the end of the evening, without even saying thank you or saying goodbye. Maybe because we were Italian? I don't know, considering that my boyfriend is from Alto Adige and interacted with him completely in German without any problems.

Always a guarantee for a great evening!

Much quieter environment and more family-friendly layout than the Hofbräuhaus. Excellent food as well, and good service. Their beer is a bit lighter than the others'.

I have been to this pub many times and have always had a good time. The second to last time they tried to overcharge us, but I thought it was the waiter's mistake. This time I did the math afterwards and they actually overcharged us. I'm sorry because it's a nice place but I will never go back

We were seated in a sort of private room, where we could sit much more quietly than in the large dining room. The food was delicious and homemade, the service was friendly, and the prices were reasonable. We really enjoyed our meal here.

Great location for larger events with excellent service and delicious food

The liver dumpling soup was good; if it had been hot, it would have been fantastic. The warm chocolate cake was truly delicious, with a super-liquid center, truly amazing.

Wonderful, can't wait to go back!

Decent private venue. After-party for intersolar

The Beergarten a great spot for a beer and food

Very enjoyable place. Nice staff, good food, good beer.

I wouldn't recommend it. A very nice brewery. A nice beer garden...that's it. The price/performance ratio isn't right. The food was rather bland and unimaginative. The roast pork was more like a child's portion. No comparison to the Wiener Platz beer garden. A real shame.

Price-performance ratio is okay. We're from Vienna. We'll be back. P & O Bauer

A beer garden where you are still well served, inside or outside.

A very large restaurant with Munich tradition and a large outdoor area. The Löwenbräukeller is busy, and the interior isn't exactly conducive to lively conversation. But that's beside the point if you want to experience something. Fascinating that a three-man brass band can entertain the entire restaurant—hats off. The food is hearty and good. The staff is extremely friendly and simply admirable.

Not to be found if you don't drink much. Otherwise, the food is good!

The asparagus soup was excellent, but extremely expensive. The spare ribs were also expensive, but unfortunately really bad: hardly any meat and very tough. Particularly bad: The beer was poorly poured; it was about a thumb's width short of the 0.5 l mark after the foam had settled! The service was very good, though!

Nice traditional Bavarian food... The staff is helpful, it's worth it if you want to try local flavors...

Very good food and wonderful atmosphere.

The worst waiter in the world... He treated us very badly. I don't even want to give it a star. He just added a tip without my consent.

Roast pork: lukewarm, slices as if cut by a primary school student, crust completely cold, potato dumplings from a large package, gravy lukewarm and tasting like powder. Almost 18 euros for this is unreasonable. I would have expected that at a motorway service station, but not here. Service was quick and friendly. The beer garden was poorly lit. Apparently, so many tourists come automatically that they don't even have to make an effort. The beer is good, but it was poured with 25% foam.

There are some must-see places if you go to Munich. Beer gardens are one of them. This one is very beautiful and very well placed.

There's nothing better than filling your stomach in the Löwenbräu Keller - the food is good, the beer is flowing and the waiters are so friendly that you're in the wrong movie. And what should I say? You won't get ripped off here. Running!

Great beer house in a very nice building. Very good typical German dishes. Nice atmosphere. Ottima birreria in a palazzo molto bello. Piatti tipici della cucina tedesca molto buoni. bell’atmosfera.

Cozy and sociable place to drink beer.

Service poor, prices overpriced

Okay, but nothing more. Crusted roast: meat dry, crust partly. glass hard Spare ribs: from the day before, warmed up, fatty meat, everything completely covered in a dark, rather lousy ketchup-like sauce. Toilets: Get over it! Broken, dirty, disgusting smell. The waitress was well aware of these facts. Not again.

Not recommended, service very unfriendly. Very expensive

Was at a larger event. Service was still somehow overwhelmed with the reduced selection on the menu. Acoustically fine.

Really recommended - and: You can reserve here on Saturday :)

Nice place, historic, better beer in Munich, impeccable service

Ok, the place is impressive and beautiful. Dark wood, cool vibe comfortable seating. The menu feature the usual Beer Garden fare and the prices are in line. The service on the other hand was dismal. We sat and immediately were asked for our order before we had opened the menu. We ordered drinks and on return the waiter again asked for the order. We again said we needed time….we were in no hurry…..he obviously was. After a bit we ordered and the food came quickly. Everything was good and nicely presented. I asked for mustard and he forgot! Had to wave him down and it finally arrived. Had to again had to wave him down for drink refills. Now I understand when the place is packed but this was at 4:30 and the place was 10% full. Overall the place is nice but the service is so bad that I will not return…there are too many other options.

We come here regularly after work and have always been satisfied. However, a system is creeping in here that is based either on intent or carelessness. Ingredients (especially expensive ones) are “forgotten” in the dishes. For salad with porcini mushrooms, add the mushrooms. In the case of asparagus salad with salmon and rösti, the salmon and rösti are not there. When it comes to baked apples, you're missing a scoop of ice cream, etc... You save quite a bit a day. Some tourists may not notice this or don't dare say anything. You should rethink it or train the staff better. There was hardly anything going on those days. It couldn't be due to stress. Service was always nice. The food itself was delicious.

I went to Löwenbräu with a friend today and unfortunately didn't have a good experience. There were two hairs in my plate - very unappetizing. The goulash soup tasted like it came from a can, and the schnitzel was rather mediocre. Although you had to pay to use the toilet, there was no toilet paper or soap and the general condition was unsanitary. The waiter also seemed a bit strange in his dealings. Overall, unfortunately, it was a visit that I wouldn't want to repeat.

All the food was great. The pork knuckle, the currywurst, and the spatzle were all amazing. Cool atmosphere and great music as well.

Great ambience, delicious food, a little difficult to get to the sauerkraut that was hidden under the mountains of meat. Someone knew this and "dug it up" for me ;-) The service was friendly and quick, it was a great evening.

Wonderful historic place. Been a few times over 30 years. Never disappoints.

Rude waiter says there’s no teeth floss in their restaurant. What a joke!

- Food comes out quickly - I don't like it when the staff calculates individual beers for the group. It was hard work and there was no tip. I gave a tip of 15 euros, but I guess it wasn't enough.

Although according to the website the kitchen closes at 10 p.m. at the earliest, dessert can no longer be ordered at 9:40 p.m. Well, not then.

This place was excellent. We visited twice during our trip to Munich and both times sat in the outdoor beer garden. One time it was really busy and the other time a bit more quieter. Both were great vibes. Great beer. Really good food. And the live music on the weekend was a great touch. Out of all the 'big six' breweries in Munich, this was definitely our favourite!

Be sure to reserve as a group. The food was delicious and the service was friendly if a little overwhelmed. Entertainment created a great atmosphere.

Unfortunately not recommended. We were there in a larger group and ordered several fried chicken. Apparently supplies were tight, as some of us received significantly smaller portions than others - a far cry from what we had previously seen on other plates. When asked, the friendly waiter honestly confirmed that it was not the regular portion and that the kitchen was currently overwhelmed. A proactive apology or an alternative offer? None. When we asked whether we could accommodate the price, it was also rejected after consultation with the "boss". The fried chicken itself was dry, consisted mostly of bones and was disappointing in taste. Overall a very unsatisfactory experience.

Went there with several people for dinner around lunchtime. Almost empty inside and around 15 tables occupied outside, so there wasn't much going on compared to the fact that there were 6 service people there. Drinks ordered so far so good. Another waiter came again to confirm the drinks. (There were a few mistakes/everything good can happen). Food ordered so far so good. The first half was finished eating for 30 minutes until the wrong food was finally brought. So wait longer again 45 minutes after the first half finished eating, the others' food arrives. At this point, I would say it's a good idea to clear away the empty plates and since 8 out of 10 people didn't have anything to drink, you could definitely ask if you could bring something else. Emphasis on COULD. Well, everyone finished eating and again no one came for 25 minutes until a colleague went out to smoke and asked for the bill, even if we would have liked to stay longer, but with the service, none of us wanted to wait another 30 minutes for drinks. After his smoking break there was still no one to be seen when we finally decided to get up and collectively ask for the bill. Unfortunately, we were put off because we all wanted to pay at once and only the kitchen and the bar were to blame why everything took so long. But there was no apology from him and I have to say that the service made enough mistakes. I work in the catering industry and things can go wrong and have happened to me myself, which is why I don't have a problem with that, but that was the worst catering experience I've ever had.

Always a good address for hearty Bavarian food in a pleasant atmosphere.

Founded in 1383, the Lowenbrau Brewery boasts a history spanning over 600 years as one of Munich's six largest breweries. In accordance with Germany's Beer Purity Law, they brew traditional Munich-style beer using only malt, hops, and water, and are famous for being served at Oktoberfest. One of the attractions is that you can tour the factory and enjoy fresh beer at the directly managed bar. This is a must-see spot for beer lovers and those who want to experience history and tradition for themselves. Lebenbräukeller is a beer hall and restaurant directly managed by the Lebenbräu Brewery. It is characterized by its vaulted ceiling and stately exterior, and you can enjoy authentic Bavarian cuisine and seasonal menus along with beer. The spacious interior, which can accommodate up to 1,000 people, and the summer beer garden are also popular. It has a relaxing atmosphere that is loved by not only tourists but also locals, and is recommended for those who want to experience traditional beer culture.

Good food. Tourist trap prices 😕

Very disappointing unfortunately. The exterior is depressing. At least when it comes to my food. The spare ribs were hard, dry and drowned in BBQ sauce. I have to say that I always eat spare ribs, no matter where we are. So I have an idea and can rightly say that I can judge it very well. At the end, as usual, the waiter asked if everything was okay and when I expressed my disappointment to him, he didn't listen to the end and just left 😳 When he left he apologized, but that didn't make up for it.

Cozy atmosphere as you would expect from a pub. The vegan and vegetarian menu alone could be a little more diverse.

Wonderful, outstanding! Best food and best service (I particularly liked the traditional clothing of the waiters)! Highly recommended!

Classic beer hall, with a very special building on the outside and a large open space on the inside. In summer it has a garden.

The food was very tasty and the staff was very friendly. I highly recommend it.

If you get a meal here, you can consider yourself lucky. Absolutely no recommendation. I would prefer any Rewe to Go. Never been so disappointed.

Typical German pub, beautiful atmosphere, kind and helpful waiter, even if we hadn't booked he still let us sit, asking us to free up the table in time for the customers who had booked.

In Munich each Seven Sisters brewery is a usually historic and fascinating building. This is one of the most beautiful, with typical furnishings, a central counter and a musical band to cheer you up. There is also a large outdoor area. Good beers, spectacular shank, one of the best in all of Munich. Absolutely worth trying.

We are absolutely thrilled – we have never experienced such warm and attentive staff! The service is top, as is the price-performance ratio. Clear recommendation!

There was a lively band playing, and entry was free of charge. The beer was wonderful, and the BBQ was the perfect touch.

Nice brewery, but the beer is not necessarily cheap for a brewery

Very nice restaurant, great building, very friendly waiters

On March 13th I called and had eight people make reservations for Easter Monday at 12:30, I was also promised, everything was great. We were happy. We arrived with growling stomachs...what can I say: the Löwenbräukeller was closed: on Easter Monday only from 4 p.m. How can it be that a reservation is accepted for a period that is closed?! Never again Löwenbräukeller. We ate at the competition, there are plenty of them in Munich.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the old town, you can enjoy one of the traditional breweries in the Löwebräukeller. When the weather is good, the shady garden is very inviting, but the atmosphere in the brewery is also very nice. Löwenbräu is without a doubt one of the best beers in Munich. The service staff are very friendly and always attentive. Drinks and food were served without a long wait. Because of the location alone, I'm always happy to be a guest here.

Typical brewery. I don't rate the food as excellent because it is the usual German dishes, however well prepared

We visited this place for dinner in the hope of experiencing authentic Bavarian cuisine. The food was decent, but the service was extremely slow. We had to ask the waiter to come back over and over again to take our order. There was a lot of noise, and the manager told us that if we were seated outside, we would have to wait even longer. Very little gender diversity: the restaurant was packed, full of loud, uncouth male clients, some of whom seemed to be drunk. Overall, a deeply disappointing experience. I would not recommend this establishment.

The unpleasant waiter snorts as if we were wasting his time

Today I was in the beautiful beer garden again with my wife at around half past two after a long time. Unfortunately, our expectations were bitterly disappointed. We ordered half a chicken and a currywurst (probably unique in Germany) without fries. Boy boy, these were both by far the worst things I've ever eaten. Both extremely dry. At prices that are simply a disgrace for the quality delivered. And yes, the “manager” offered us a new dish after our complaint. But that's not the point. It's just that you expect good quality at such prices. That's it for us now. Apparently the restaurant management is not interested in a "traditional tavern" as advertised but only in a quick euro from tourists. It's a shame that such a historic inn is run

I love taking friends to the Löwenbräukeller to get a classic Munich experience. I probably won't anymore because of the last bad experiences with service there. Our server was pushy taking orders, and then completely negligent afterwards -- totally uninterested. We had to order drinks with him multiple times before they came, and the final tab included drinks that never came, which we had to negotiate off the tab. (And they were not very busy -- just inattentive.) The food also came out staggered over about 15 minutes -- not really possible to eat together for our party of 8. Sorry to see this classic Munich restaurant going downhill.

Schweinhaksen is delicious on the outside and inside. Both portions are generous. It goes very well with beer

Very tasty food and friendly staff

Satisfying dinner. Quick and professional staff. A little too noisy environment.

An authentic beer garden and brasserie...

A big Bavarian pub, more for the tourists but hits the spot.

The menu said "beefburger", did not exist. Waiter was very grumpy. Beer was fantastic

To do when you want to immerse yourself in Bavarian gastronomy!

Great restaurant and nice ambience, the service and the food were also very good!

It is my Beergarden of preference to bring my friends when they visit me in Munich. I mostly like the garden but the interior is also nice. Food is pretty good. Menus are available in different languages. The waiters can range from very friendly to rather rude.

Disastrous experience at the bauma event: there was a vegan menu on the menu, which I signed up for straight away. The starter (salad) came about 1 hour after the regular starter was served, everyone else's plates had already been cleared by then. The main course didn't come at all, about 30 minutes after the complaint I was told that unfortunately it was too late now, but I could eat dessert. I've really never experienced anything like this before.

Great ambience Our waiter was always helpful Food was good The band absolutely nailed it with music on request for a small donation... but the boys could also play anything 🙃

The food tasted good, there was a nice selection! The service was very friendly and attentive. Prices typical of Munich, but good quality!

Good food in a good setting, service was a little slow, but it was full to bursting. Expect it's better when quieter

We had dinner on the ground floor while there was a superparty in the festhalle. The vote is penalized because the beautiful environment was that of the large room accessible with the monumental staircase, to which we did not have access.
