I am so happy my bf and I had the impulse to go here. Unfortunately, we had been given bad service at a different restaurant 2 nights before and were feeling a bit out of place/discouraged about going out. Thankfully the staff at Augustiner-Keller really made us feel welcomed & treated us so kindly. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with excitement & seated promptly. Our server was awesome & his mood was infectious! The food, omg... it was delicious!! It was my mistake to not combine the schnitzel & cranberry sauce until the end; do it! It is the best combination. The potatoes were so tender & well-seasoned. For dessert we shared the dampfnudel. Its the perfect size to be shared and like everything else we had that night, delicious. Of course, the beer was just as great ! Best beer we had while in Munich! Overall, the atmosphere is fun, welcoming, and warm. I would fly to Munich specifically to visit this restaurant again (no exaggeration!) read more

The absolute gold standard of Munich beer gardens. So massive, and so historic. Can seat over 3000 outdoors, another 500 indoors upstairs, and 500 downstairs in the cellar halls. Beer = AMAZING. Food = AMAZING. SERVICE = also AMAZING. Good times, fun and happy vibes all around. Plenty of booze flowing, great traditional German foods (schnitzel, wursts, etc etc). We ate, we drank, we had a blast. We sat down in the cellar hall, enjoyed the live band, it was community seating and we had a very fun table of business-folks that were on travel and one local friend of theirs. Everyone was nice, the food and the community table pretzels were incredible and the beer flowed like rivers coming from heaven. Prices were not really bad at all. I had 2 0.5L beers, my wife had 3 wines, we shared 2 entrees, an app and she got a chef salad (which made people for three tables around us laugh out loud!) plus we ate god-knows how many pretzels ($1.30 Euro each I think)...and the bill was $75 euro ($85 US) which isn't awful. We had a blast. It was very easy to find only a few minutes walk from the Bahnhof (train station) area, and close to our hotel. If you want a traditional Munchen beer hall...this is IT! read more

This place is impressive and you get the true beer hall experience. There is a large inside as well as outside seating during the nice weather seasons. I thought the fest beer was excellent (Augustiner is one of the original Munich breweries and it's oldest) so was the Weißbier. I had one of the Wiesn specials which was a venison roulade dish. It was tasty but the meat was dry (a little over cooked). I didn't care for the flavor of their dumplings at all, but the red cabbage was excellent! Highly recommend the Bavarian vanilla pudding dessert (which also happens to be gluten free!) it's light and the perfect amount of a little sweet at the end of a savory meal. They have gluten free bread and a handful of GF items marked on the menu. They also mark their menu with lactose free items. We came here during Oktoberfest and the atmosphere was lively but not out of control. Service was very good. read more

Good Bavarian food and beer in a historic beer hall. They've been making beer for several hundred years, so they know what they're doing. I appreciate they let you order 1/2 liters of everything. We had pork sausage with sauerkraut and Bavarian meatloaf (it's more like ham than American-style meatloaf) with potato salad. Excellent service and be sure to check out the dancing coopers on the chandelier! read more

I feel like this is a must-do thing, if you visit Munich. That being said, it is ok. The atmosphere was pretty cool and they had live music. It really gets busy. But as with every place in Germany, people can smoke outside and if you don't care to smell that, since it's an outdoor beer garden, you're going to deal with that. I had to try the schweinshaxe - I will admit that the crispy skin was tasty but I usually don't eat skin or dark meat. The meat itself is darker but the flavor was good. It came with sauerkraut and a potato dumpling - all good, just so carby. My husband had the mix plate which is 1/2 schweinshaxe and a piece of chicken. HIs side was potato salad - super tasty! If you don't have a reserved table, you are seated with others that you don't know at large tables. Which is kind of cool. We ended up sitting with 2 girls from Ireland, so chatted with them. *Also, note that if you walk further in, instead of waited tables, it is a cafeteria style where you can walk through and get what you want. The cost is a bit less and you can get a chance to eye the items instead of ordering blindly. We didn't notice this until after we ate. read more

Delicious traditional food!! Ambiance is awesome. It's like a cozy beer hall. Great for big groups. The portions are large. We could have split each entree that we ordered by two. Everything was well seasoned. They make a really good Radler! I definitely recommend this place. Yum! read more

A great stop if you want to do a traditional beer hall and are exploring Munich. I think many disregard both here and Hofbräuhaus as they feel it's touristy, but sometime things are touristy because they are good to do so everyone wants to be there. This location is near the Marienplatz and on the walking mall, so a great stop while you are out. This was my second stop here, once with a larger group and this time to grab a small bite & beer after the Christmas Markets. The food is good and solid, not going to be the very best meal you can ever get but good for some traditional options. The beer is good and they offer multiple sizes if you are up for the full liter. This trip we all had the goulash with potatoes, a plate of the potato salad and then beers. The goulash was tasty, had pieces of pork and then potatoes in a red broth and in a good potion for the price. The potato salad is amazing! The Bavarian traditional potato salad with a vinegar base instead of an America mayo style (I prefer the vinegar by far). Come here to talk and laugh and drab a drink & a bite and enjoy the traditional beer hall style you hope for when thinking of Germany! read more

We were four American tourists visiting during Oktoberfest. We were seated immediately and they provided us English menus. Service was a little slow but there was plenty of entertainment since they had a band playing. Overall the atmosphere was amazing. Beer was good and the food was good as well. Would definitely recommend to check it out during Oktoberfest (we went the first Monday night of Oktoberfest), can't speak much about other times. read more

This review is overdue but simply put it's my favorite brewery in Munich. Augustiner consistently has the #1 ranked Helles in the world however any of their beers are amazing. My only qualm is it's incredibly difficult to get here in the states. This specific location has a beer garden that can accommodate about 5,000 people making it the third largest beer garden in Munich. Their food is standard traditional German cuisine but it's done very very well. The Schnitzel or pork knuckle are two of my faves. If you're here for Oktoberfest, this location is a little out of the way (north side of the train station) but it's well worth a ci read more

Super great service. Love the attention specifically because I don't speak German !! Great food, nice environment !

Great place for German food and a beer , summer in the beer garden with there in the Keller

Augustiner-Keller was probably my favorite beer, brewery and beer hall/biergarten experience while I was in Munich for Oktoberfest. The historic building is an amazing tour in of itself. The Augustiner Hell vom holzfass "from a wooden barrel" was the best beer I had in Germany. The food was enjoyable and the service was among the best I had in Munich. I enjoyed my time here so much that I actually made multiple visits even though I wanted to try as many different places as possible while in Munich. The outdoor biergarten is truly massive as it seats literally thousands of people and is certainly a sight to see while the inside has a lot of character with the depths of the downstairs also full of some great things to see as well. read more

Why 5 stars? Because this was our favorite sit-down dinner in Munich. --- --- --- We were on the hunt for a place to eat dinner on a Friday night, and we were coming to realize that it was not going to be an easy task. We tried another brewery first, but it was absolutely packed with no end in sight on the waitlist. This one had a similarly high Yelp rating, so we figured it wasn't a bad consolation destination. When we first arrived, it looked like it was more of the same - super crowded from corner to corner. We were frustrated and about to give up, when we realized there was outdoor seating available - phew! The service ended up not being the quickest out here, but it was definitely better than having to find another alternative place to eat. The food ended up being really great, too! I ordered the number one seller, which was pig and duck. It came with those things that looked like yellow balls and red cabbage. I'm still not sure what those yellow balls were, but they were awesome, as was the cabbage. My meat wasn't as tasty as the sides, but was solid. My wife ordered spaetzle, which I really loved. Her salad was tough to eat, with the lettuce not being chopped up, but I really liked the dressing. And of course, it's a brewery after all, so I had to indulge. The dark beer went down easy. It's obvious that they do some serious partying here - maybe during Oktoberfest? They outdoor area next to the restaurant is absolutely gigantic with picnic tables as far as the eye can see. In order to walk to the restrooms, I had to pass by all of this, and could only imagine how insane this area must be once it's full of rowdy Germans. The restroom was definitely set-up for efficiency to handle such crowds, as the toilets were giant, old-school troughs. Glad we ended up here, to finish up our experience in Munich! read more

Excellent ambiance, delicious food, friendly service, wonderful playground - everything about this place is a win. Loved it!

Oh, I love visiting places that Anthony Bourdain, Guy, or Andrew Zimmern go to. When in Munich, we stopped here for a dinner. What a great time as the decor, the staff, and the food was great! I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone when in Munich. It is a must try place! read more

Out of all the beers, they had the best. Very smooth and a little on the sweet side (that review comes from my boyfriend since I'm not a beer drinker). Our castle tour guide recommended this place and the food was good but service was VERY slow. Later found out that they were extremely understaffed so the speed of service was not our server's fault; he was just spread too thin. We were a party of 2 and they sat us at a table for 4 with 2 other random people. This may be a German thing, but Americans are not used to that. Nonetheless, it was nice to meet new people and we made the best of meeting new German friends. Would have given this a 3-star review but the friendly server and good beer and atmosphere saved this review. I love eating outside and it was the perfect October night. read more

Stumbled upon this place. We loved the energy. We like the option to have full service or self-serve dinner. Lots of seating and fun.

A beautiful , historical and amazing restaurant. A hot summer and only room available was inside but we enjoyed the interior old world historical charm. As usual amazing wheat beer ! Food was delicious , dessert amazing ( try the German cake with nuts or go for the traditional Strudel). . read more

We were in Munich for Oktoberfest and wanted a eat/drink at traditional beer hall for our first night in town and Augustiner fit the bill. The restaurant is located on the premises of their sprawling brewery complex in the western part of the city. Parking is a nightmare with tons of local zoning restrictions, so I recommend training in if possible, there's a stop basically right in front of the restaurant. As it was Oktoberfest, the place was packed and they were offering a limited menu but the ambiance was fun and loud but less crazy than other beer halls downtown. Their pork knuckle was tasty and portions weee generous with fresh pretzels to keep your beer company while waiting for your dinner. Service was friendly and efficient and prices are reasonable. The beer was very tasty and came in Ein mass only (1 litre). I highly recommend Augustiner if you are looking for a less crowded and very traditional beer hall experience. read more

Came here on my last night in Munich and was so impressed with this spot. The food was outstanding, my boyfriend and I had dinner in the outdoor dining area and everything about it was great. We sat at a community table next to some locals who recommended some classic dishes and they didn't steer us wrong! The sausage sampler was super good, I loved the variety of different kinds. After we ate, we went to the beer garden which was so fun and lively and had such a cool atmosphere. I wish we had come here before our last night in town, because I definitely would have come here more than once. read more

Fun, good food and great beer. What more could you want out of Bavaria? Oh- live music. They have it all at Augustine's-Keller. Do not count calories or look for a lot of vegetables here but, if you want a great time with lots of people and delicious hearty food in Munich, this is the place! It is a huge place by American standards and most speak English so you can have a party atmosphere or a private (amongst hundreds) party inside or out. Consider eating in the cellar where the casks are for a different atmosphere. Loved it and I will be back! read more

G-O-O-D G-O-D This place is SEHR GUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's be real, Augustiner-Keller is one of the best beer gardens in the entire world. If just one city in the United States had Augustiner-Keller (Which is impossible, because Americans would never be comfortable with 15 year olds having a liter together) you would never hear the end of it. With something like 10,000 seats, some of the best soup and food I've ever eaten, and, of course, beer that can make a beer lover cry with joy, Augustiner-Keller is a world class establishment in a city fortunate enough to have this be their culture. An absolutely stunning environment, the trees, the green, the stairs, the chairs, Dr. Seuss could easily have made a story about this place. Thank god for Augustiner-Keller, and with any luck, or just good karma, I will return for another life changing visit!!! I love you Augustiner-Keller, and thank you for loving me. YOU ARE THE BEST!!! read more

Hotel concierge recommended this place because my mom wanted to try the famous pig knuckle. Food was great and we were a little confused about the seating process but if you do go, it is seat yourself! Just find a table and sit down--people will go to you. The pretzels were free of charge so eat your carbs away. We ordered the pig knuckle, salad, salmon steak, and Wiener schnitzel with two beers and a radler. What a feast! The food was delicious and my mom really enjoyed the pig knuckle, especially the sauerkraut . The Wiener schnitzel was great as well especially paired with the cranberry or mulberry sauce. Though it started raining halfway through, the large umbrellas and heaters helped keep us dry. Loved the atmosphere! The beer garden is HUGE. Must stop by if you're visiting Munich! read more

Really an impressive space here at Augustiner. Our first night it was raining so we sat inside and we were amazed at how it could be so big but still feel like an intimate beer hall. The community style tables and open seating leave it pretty wide open to find a spot wherever you want. Just like everywhere in Germany the beer is fantastic no matter what you choose. I had the pork snitzel, Weiss wurst and Apple strudel in my 2 visits and each was exceptional. This is definitely one of those times where I wish I could have tried more! The outdoor space has the "Wow" factor. I mean it might not be as amazing for people from Munich or those that are used to this kind of size for outdoor beer gardens, but for the rest of us it is a spectacular site. One side is self serve, meaning you go to their walk-up area grab what you want then pay and take to your table, while the other side has a server. It's a minimal price difference for service so pick whatever you want with little cost impacts. The huge playground has got to be a win for parents too. It's pretty cool and is surrounded by tables so it's easy to watch the kiddos. Great spot, absolutely loved it! This definitely the atmosphere people are looking for when they think Bavarian beer garden. read more

The vibes / atmosphere are better than the food here but the food isn't bad. Service is prompt and efficient Schnitzel was pretty dry. The accompanying lemon helped but it needed a sauce Goulash soup - good and hearty. I personally think this could've been less salty Liver meatball in a light broth - don't remember the exact name on the menu. The broth is excellent and light. The meatball...let's say you just have to really like the texture and flavor of liver to enjoy this dish completely. Would totally enjoy drinking the broth every day They have long wooden tables so you're likely to sit next to other parties and it can be very loud read more

We stopped in here as part of an Oktoberfest tour. As a result we came very early in the day. There is a massive outdoor beer garden. It was impressive.

It seems like a really fun place to visit, particularly when the weather is warm but not too hot. read more

A beautiful, warm evening in September, days before Oktoberfest, and this place was packed. Our group of 5 did not have a table reserved and had to wander a bit, but staff found us a table. The US Beer Gardens don't even come close. Filled with people (there are 5,000 seats!), yet orderly and not too loud (who knew you could have that many people in a beer garden and it not be too loud), add huge potent beers and the incredible bavarian food and its the PERFECT Munich Beer Garden Experience. I started with a pretzel (needed to soak up a bit of that beer). It was more crunchy than doughy. And for dinner I had the brats & sauerkraut and it was THE BEST I've ever had. I thought I knew good brats being from Chicago, but the Bavarians do it better. If in Munich, just go. read more

WTF has happened to Munich and Their Beer gardens. We came here for a week of literally eating and drinking. We are thinking labor is being crapped on and inflation is killing their employees financially. We loved this beer garden. But we came Tuesday night and had beyond horrible service. Our order was screwed up and the waitress rolled her eyes when we asked for an English menu. Hofbrauhaus was just as bad if not worse. It's Saturday night and Munich is completely over run and the people trying to serve our over run. It's beyond sad. We came tonight and got seated immediately. We even got two beers fast. Than out of know where a bunch of drunks got in a fight with our waiter right in front of us. He spent twenty minutes in a stand down while we sat there in 38 degree weather trying to get our order in. There was another server and he completely blew us off. He knew the other waiter was being totally abused and did nothing to help him. I went to get managers and they did nothing to help him either. We left and the most ridiculous thing is they wanted me to pay for the two beers. I told the to go completely F**k themselves. They actually tried and were persistent to pay for the drinks. We did not pay. And when we leave Munich we will never return. Everyone we run in to have the same complaints. Munich. Get your shit together. You are a shell of what you use to be pre covid. We ended up getting beers at a grocery store and eating at McDonald's at the train station. Munich is a huge mess. Trust me. Don't come to Munich. It sucks now. read more

Awesome place! We went for New Year's Eve dinner here and it was such an enjoyable experience. I met a Swiss couple and and Italian family that sat by us. The funny thing is that we conversed in French with each other! The beer and food was absolutely amazing along with the atmosphere and the staff. The waitress was gracious enough to let me try to speak to her in German. Trust me, she was patient because my German is nacht so gut! Quaint, fun environment with excellent food. Everyone at the table ordered various dishes and we all agreed is was very delicious. The beer was amazing. I tried the Weisbeer, but I preferred the Edelhoff. It had a really crisp and clean taste. Had so much fun here for NYE. The outdoor German version of shuffle on ice was pretty cool too! Highly recommend this spot if you come to Munich. read more

I had been suggested this place after doing quite a bit of research. If there was anything that I was going to get out of my brief trip to München, it was going to be a genuine Bavarian dining experience with real beer. This place did not disappoint. I ordered the Schweinshaxe - braised pork knuckle - served with a potatoe dumpling in it's own sauce. There at least 3 different types of meat on the cut: the outer crunchy skin, the fatty yet still well baked layer beneath (like Mexican carnitas), and a darker type of meat (something like a turkey) closer to the bone. The dumpling had an interesting texture (firm yet bouncy?) but was superbly delicious, if not a bit oversalted. It was a journey in meat that paired exceptionally well with my liter of Helles. My SO ordered the weiner schnitzel despite my pleas for her to try the müncher schnitzel, which is a regional specialty. It was good but not exceptional so I'd suggest otherwise. Speaking of beer, their Helles was probably my favorite beer of the big breweries that I tried during the trip including Hofbrauhaus, Lowenbrau, Paulaner, and Schneider Weisse. I wasn't as much of a fan of their Weissebier, but it definitely didn't stop me from finishing my glass. Prost! read more

This building is huge and the space outside is impressive. The beer is fantastic. We did not eat here so I can't speak for the food, but my review is mainly for service. We had an older gentleman serving us. He was rude, offered no suggestions or help when we asked about what beers they had. We literally had to point at beer at another table to get some. It was a rough experience. But like I said, the beer was good. So good luck if you're going there. Maybe sit in the main area dining room. read more
