Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger in München

Good place for travelers in München – great service and menu in both German and English. Cozy and friendly atmosphere, good prices and super leckeres Essen. I tried a Grüner Berliner Wein cocktail and a Schweinegericht – super lecker, highly recommended!

Ate a very tasty duck with red cabbage and dumplings at Christmas. The restaurant is highly recommended. Top cuisine.

Very tasty food, but acoustics are a bit difficult. It gets loud quickly. Service is great.

The food was average at best but the whole experience was ruined once I realized I had been cheated. When the waiter asked if I’d like to leave a tip, I said 10%. The bill was €24.50, so I expected to pay around €27. But when I later checked the receipt, I saw I had been charged €30. That's over 20%. This wasn’t a rounding error; it felt deliberate. What’s worse is that something very similar happened to me at the Bier Garten at Viktualienmarkt. It’s starting to seem like this might be a common practice in the area. Tourists, beware - check your receipts carefully before you pay!

Was super good! The knuckle is really awesome!

Quick meal (reservation) it is delicious

The food is very tasty. The price is reasonable for the location.

Wonderful inn. Very friendly and cheerful service, tasty and beautifully prepared food. Short waiting times, fair prices. We'll be back!

Easy n lucky to get a sits. Restaurant is packed. Sits by the bar, arrived day 1 with good beer and welcome food. Must try n go for . Open till midnight.

Great traditional Bavarian good in the heart of the city. Service is what one would expect of a Bavarian, especially towards a foreigner, whole the atmosphere can get pretty crowded especially in the evenings.

Tragicomical experience on the edge of reality in Munich. After a long and painful search for a restaurant that would take a reservation on a Saturday evening, we arrive at this elusive place with a high-sounding name considered (completely wrongly) by our taxi driver to be the "flag-bearer of German cuisine"... more bored than anything else we go through the door where a muscular Teutonic man confidently shows us our place... and here the cat broods for us! We come to the internal room as if we were at the Pusiano grape festival, seated at the table with three noisy, sweaty and laughing Bayern fans who, as soon as they understood our nationality without difficulty, showed off the typical rhetoric that accompanies us everywhere like a trail of perfume (or smell?). Vaguely vegetarian menu whose understanding is dotted with many shadows and no light. We therefore choose to fall back on a round of beer (four Giuditta quality weiss) at a Kafkaesque price. So irritated, we head to the house to ask to be moved. A waiter takes our place, evidently a mere executor, who patiently tries to persuade his superior to give us accommodation worthy of four innocent people. The effort pays off in spades, as he offers us to eat at the canteen of a couple of shipwrecks. We leave without complaining and here's an echoing hello that accompanies us out in the open. It was the guy from before. Green light therefore for those who have an "atypical" and fluid concept of dinner, for those who perhaps after a week of work will have to share confidences not only with the girlfriend on duty but also with strangers, for those who want to be fleeced to eat carrots à la d'Orazio. Racism? It's possible. Perhaps only the oldest evil in the world: the greed of those who want everything. For posterity the arduous sentence. Avoid like the plague

A very cozy inn. Classic yet modern. The food was delicious and plentiful. The service was super friendly and quick. Definitely worth a visit. It was a bit noisy towards the end, but that's normal.

Everything was absolutely top-notch, food, staff, ambience - an advertisement for Bavaria

Embarrassing, terrible, so much rudeness. Better if I had never entered!!!

Great food, good service, nice atmosphere and very nice and clean building

Super nice waitress, got a great seat at rush hour. Food was great.

A culinary delight! Even special requests are no problem. Top!

I’ve not had a delicious plate of pork schnitzel until coming to this restaurant. The lager was incredibly smooth and refreshing to drink. The service staff were friendly (and spoke good English). Would definitely come back again.

Good food near the Viktualienmarkt I always enjoy coming here. The service is very good and so is the food. The selection of the lunch menu is great and the menu offers something for everyone. The portions are large and nicely prepared. Sometimes it is advantageous to reserve in advance.

The slightly greasy breading on the Straub schnitzel, the potato salad was perfectly fine – all in all, tasty but nothing special... for a great schnitzel, the breading could have been crispier and less sticky. Service was 50% very friendly and attentive, but in some cases, it was actually quite poor – nice words are no substitute for a pleasant overall demeanor.

First of all: The service was fantastic! We still got a seat despite not having a reservation, and the staff was very friendly! Authentic brewery in Munich with delicious food. It tasted good, but my sauerbraten could have been a bit hotter. It was a bit spicy, but that's not the kitchen's fault. I'd love to come back!

Service, environment, food, great experience.

Great inn with delicious, hearty food.

I had one of the very few vegetarian options - The Spaetzle. It was dry and flavorless BUT the staff was extremely friendly !

A clear lack of transparency about the service. We were forced to order something extra. The increase in the bill was given as an express reason. The food remains good.

Very nice inn right next to the Viktualienmarkt. Quite traditional from the outside, the inside has recently been redesigned to be chic and modern, but still cozy, by a good interior designer. Remarkably attentive, friendly service from Isabella, including at the surrounding tables. On a particularly unpleasant day, we were able to warm ourselves up from the outside (very tasty, fresh soups) and from the inside (see above). Recommendation! 😀

You're always looking for a location for a business lunch. It shouldn't be quite as outlandish, but it should still be of good quality. The 'Zum Straubinger' inn is highly recommended for this purpose.

Good food, fair prices, fast and attentive service

You can even eat well We were served by an elderly lady who had a problem with me taking away the knife and fork because we had had food for 5 minutes and no one was even interested in bringing us the knives and forks, the rude lady

The waiter and kitchen made a mistake and charged twice for the dish. After the error was discovered, the waiter also reacted unfriendly.

No zero-eight-fifteen menu, something different. Very nice, attentive and fast staff. Prices are pleasingly reasonable. Cozy atmosphere, no hustle and bustle of the brewery with noise and mass processing. We'll be back.

The Wirtshaus zum Straubinger is highly recommended. The food is excellent, the service is perfect and the atmosphere is very relaxed. We'll be back soon!

Great! Perfect Wiener schnitzel, the service was great with a attentive waiter who did it despite my basic German 😄 It was great, thank you,

A very nice evening in a traditional but modern atmosphere. The food and drinks were excellent, the service attentive and friendly.

Went for lunch today with a toddler. Food was very tasty and came quickly. Particularly worth mentioning is the super attentive and loving service from Samson. Despite the lunchtime business, she was always present and took great care of our little daughter. Thank you for this great, very positive service experience that is second to none.

Super delicious Bavarian cuisine. We stopped here for dinner during our short vacation. My husband had the meat patties, I had the 1/2 knuckle. The portion was large. I had to struggle a bit towards the end to do everything. But I couldn't stop, it was too delicious. ;-) The atmosphere was relaxed and sociable. We started talking directly to those sitting next to us. Service was quick and attentive. We would love to come back on our next vacation in Munich.

Incredibly tasty, clean, pleasant atmosphere. The order was brought quickly, the portions were quite large, the tables were spacious. Calm atmosphere, highly recommend! About 30€ per person for a dish and a drink

A wonderful inn with extremely delicious home-style food 😍

Very tasty food. I always enjoy going here for lunch!

We are always happy to be your guests.

Great service, sensational cuisine, great atmosphere, price was great!! We'd love to come back!!

Very good lunch, friendly service, quick service. Payable.

The stopover in Munich was really worth it, the knuckle was the best I've ever eaten and it was on the table within 5 minutes of ordering. I don't know how this is possible, I suspect it's witchcraft

Great food, great service, nice atmosphere!

Everything was wonderful, very good food with quick service. At times the noise level was very high, but this was mainly due to a larger group of men. We will definitely test this again.

Great, rustic Bavarian inn with delicious food and friendly staff. There were five of us, we each had a different meal and we all enjoyed it very much. The Straubinger is definitely recommended with 5 stars! And we came back, everything was great as always!

Fortunately, I cannot agree with the negative reviews regarding the service. We had a very attentive and friendly employee. The food came very quickly and tasted really good. Portion was large and the schnitzel was probably the most tender thing I've ever eaten. I would definitely come here again on my next visit to Munich.

Typical German food, good meat and tasty dishes. Pleasant atmosphere, small comfortable rooms with views of the lake.

Great service, delicious food. Highly recommended

Very nice traditional Bavarian restaurant with top service, a bit noisy at full capacity, but that speaks for a good atmosphere. The Kaiserschmarrn without raisins, but caramelized, is a sensation.

Always fresh, delicious and seasonal food. Drinks top. Service is attentive, very attentive and friendly. The Straubinger is always a must for us. Easily accessible in the heart of Munich. The associated beer garden is open in summer.

The food came very quickly - since it was only warmed up and the crust on the knuckle, for example, was rather limp, it was no surprise.

Ambience and service were relatively good. Everyone polite and nice. Although the food is praised on several sites online, it leaves much to be desired.

Went there with my family, and the service was out of this world. It's a local spot, and I highly recommend it for your next dinner.

A highly recommended inn. There are certainly many in downtown Munich, but here attentive service, fresh, regional ingredients and an appealing menu come together to create a great overall experience. Overall, highly recommended.

The food was excellent and the prices are okay for the central location. Overall, just a slightly finer economy

Unfriendly service. Food was OK. Kasspatzn were a bit small.

Very nice German restaurant. Staff were very friendly, made you feel well taken care of. Food was superb and big portion! I had pork Schnitzels with potato salad.

Great lunch menu at a very fair price. We received excellent service from Samson

Nice environment, friendly waiters and good food. I took the spätzle but I would have preferred them to be a little warmer.

One of my favorite restaurants in Munich. The food is always delicious and the service is friendly. Better than the cliché tourist bars. Normally I am with students but this time with family. A perfect New Year's Eve dinner!

Food was good, very nice restaurant, but best of all was the friendly service. We felt very welcome.

Gastronomy at its best, that's actually all true. That's all true. The service is perfect. The food was delicious and very good value for money

Very nice, welcoming and quiet place, good quality food.....waiter....fantastic

The most delicious dishes of the Bavarian tradition prepared with down-to-earth ingredients and served in a cozy tavern atmosphere: they also have a good selection of seasonal and vegetarian delicacies (like chanterelles). I recommend the farm duck with red cabbage, the Straubi schnitzel with a pretzel crumb crust, the roast pork and the excellent desserts.

Typical Bavarian welcoming place, not chaotic.

Rustic cuisine, food is ok, offer is absolutely sufficient, “Almondschmarrn” is well done and a “dessert must”! The service was great, to the point, very friendly and not at a loss for a quick comment, an all around lovely evening!

Had a nice evening, but the portions were really quite small. Among other things, we had the winter salad for €18, but it didn't even come close to filling us up. We then asked for bread, which of course we only received for an extra cost. The taste of the food was okay, but it didn't blow us away.

We had a great experience at Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger! The food was delicious. The service was great as well. We'd love to eat here again.

Delicious Bavarian cuisine, you can even say homemade! If possible, we definitely go to this restaurant. I really liked the shank, pork and meatballs. Fast and friendly service.

We were in a larger group in the inn. Our waitress came up to us and introduced herself to us, which was nice so far and we immediately had someone to relate to for the evening. The first drinks came quickly and I can't say anything bad about the food either, on the contrary, everything tasted great and I would definitely come back for that. However, our service became increasingly unsympathetic. Orders were forgotten or ignored. When one of us just wanted to draw her attention to the fact that we hadn't ordered everything yet, she loudly told him not to say "hello" to her... (it was just a quick reaction because her back was already closed stood by us and was about to leave) I myself had ordered a wine that, even though everyone else had already gotten their second round, didn't come after a long wait. That can happen and I wouldn't have looked at it as a negative thing if I hadn't been approached with “yeah, yeah, that's fine” when I politely pointed it out to her. Others also stopped receiving drinks at the end and were ignored even after repeated orders. However, when it came to payment, the best side was taken in order to squeeze out the tip... ... small suggestion for improvement: we sat together for 5 hours and not only sipped on a beer but were willing to order more regularly. If you want a clever tip, you should spend the whole evening trying. 😉 Finally, I still give 4 stars because the food was really great and maybe we were just unlucky with the service and therefore the average of the reviews shouldn't suffer. I will come back in the hope of encountering friendlier service and then perhaps being able to give out the 5th star.

Diverse selection, delicious food, great, non-intrusive service… just great 😊

We got our food at different times and the service was unfortunately very unfriendly. The red cabbage was lukewarm. We got the wrong drinks and some drinks were forgotten when asked. A large amount of salt was spilled next to us and not cleaned up. This caused the guests to almost slip. The poor service made us feel uncomfortable and we couldn't enjoy our stay. (November 2024) It's a shame because we were really looking forward to a pub of this type.

We went to this restaurant on New Year's Eve, with an à la carte menu. Good quality and plentiful dishes., the shank was enormous. Friendly and helpful waiters, one of them even spoke Italian. Good value for money

Review for Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger – Authentic Bavarian Delight Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Bavarian cuisine in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The rustic charm of the restaurant, with its traditional decor and cozy vibe, makes for a perfect dining experience. The food is outstanding – hearty, flavorful, and expertly prepared. From schnitzel to sausages and classic Bavarian pretzels, every dish tastes homemade and fresh. The beer selection is excellent, complementing the meals perfectly. The staff are friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, Wirtshaus Zum Straubinger offers a true taste of Bavaria that shouldn’t be missed. I’ll definitely be returning!

This is some of the best cuisine in all of Munich. Our waitress, the nice Isabella, puts her heart and soul into it and you immediately feel welcome and in good hands. The head chef, the kind-hearted Peter, is an absolute master of his craft and creates incredibly tasty and culinary perfectly prepared dishes that are second to none. We have been here several times and will definitely return here again and again. Many thanks and warm greetings to the entire team

Always worth a visit. Not the typical fobbing off of tourists. Price performance is completely okay. Staff very friendly.

Ate well, normal expenses, shame about the really NICE waitress.

Celebrated a great 60th birthday, great service, delicious food and good drinks, thank you Miguel for the great evening

Unfortunately, a typical tourist shop in the city now gives a Russian a “lemon wheat beer”. Great 🤣🙈 When it comes to eating, light and shade: both schnitzels on the menu are well done, but the roasts are not convincing. The sauerbraten, for example, was not marinated properly and was far too fatty. The complaint was noted, but without consequences (quote from the waiter “...then the kitchen can learn something”). Service was not well organized and our waiter was unfortunately quite inattentive. It's a shame the Straubingerhof was already an institution.

Pleasant decor and friendly staff, we ate very well.

Nice atmosphere for a men's night out, with very nice service.

This restaurant felt welcoming and kind, the food we order provided insight into the culture of this country yet it provides a variety of plates in their menu to fit with any group. It was tasteful, the service was nice, the place was neatly arranged, and the drinks were great. I recommend the pork plates.

Very cozy restaurant a little away from the tourist crowds. Nice ambience, delicious food and great service. The almond pancake is highly recommended.

Enjoy your meal! Fair prices. And above all: we were able to stay seated and have a drink in peace and enjoy the atmosphere without being pressured to clear the table!

Very good Ochsenbackerl, game, schnitzel, very attentive service and no 3-hour allocation of tables as is often the case in Munich

The insider tip in downtown Munich next to the Schranmenhalle. Christmas party today with great food, great service! Thank you Isabella for your great effort. We'll be back 😍

I only had a few beers here and unfortunately can't say anything about the kitchen. The service and hospitality as well as the friendliness of the staff are excellent and the ambience is also fine if you like large restaurants. As in everything... recommended!

Mass…. Bavarian food not good for the price and far too small. Kaiserschmarren looks very good visually but the taste lacks sweetness and it is not homemade

We love german food now 😅 Enjoyed the roast beef and polenta. Onions were sweet and the sauce suitable for the dish I have been eyeing a pork schnitzel since arriving in Munich and glad i had the one here. The bacon-pretzel crust was tasty. Overall good dish We had the zitronen radler / beer with lemonade. Lighter than our local shandy in Malaysia but still a very good drink. Gingerbread casserole was superb. Burst of flavours from this combination is so good. Cinnamon ice cream and the pear quince compote is jusy heavenly. Heart warming dessert . Excellent dining experience. Service was good and efficient.

Highly priced. Great, tasty vegetarian dishes to choose from. Top service. 2 lanes for stick shooting in winter!

Location is the only benefit. I wouldn’t return, even if it was the last place open. But the prices are ok.

We felt comfortable and can recommend the restaurant without reservation.

Clear recommendation in the center of Munich. Food was a little weakly seasoned (but you can solve that yourself) and the portion of cheese spaetzle was a bit small for a man's portion. BUT: overall great atmosphere, good quality and above all great service. Here the guest is taken into account and taken care of. Not a tourist trap.

Friendly, nice atmosphere, delicious

Great service, amazing pork knuckle, reindeer sugo with forest mushrooms, spezle, and Austrian red wine

We had a really great stay at the Wirtshaus Straubinger. The waiter Martin did a great job. We really enjoyed the food. P.S. In the future, please simply serve tap water to the guest (if they wish) and not spend a long time behind the counter discussing whether this is possible or not.

The schnitzel meat looks thick, but it's only about 2-3 mm thick and for us it's not really that much. In the pictures we saw, the portions were significantly larger. The breading came off immediately and the 0.5 liter beer was only filled to 2cm below the calibration mark. I'm very disappointed. The obazda wasn't really tasty and the amount of bread is ridiculous.

We went with reservation. We ordered Schnitzel, Duck, Kasespatzle, Obatzda and Beer. It was delicious. The service was attentive and fast enough.

A regular haunt of ours when we visit Munich. First time however to the recently refurbished restaurant. I am pleased to report that it was as good as ever.
