This isn't the type of bar to have loud voices pouring over the conversation you are having. It's like a place to sit back, relax and enjoy a few beers with your friends. The bar tender is sweet and very friendly. Decor-wise it has little ceiling painting of angels enjoying their beers which adds an overall good touch to this place. Mirrors line the outer bar to give this place the feeling of a larger place inside. Add to that, this place's cheery music selection and you get a great vibe. Oddly enough for a place who's name means beer heaven there aren't too many beers on tap (Augustiner Lager and ... something else). Other than that it's mostly hard liquor composing of your standard Jim, Jack and of course Johnny. Totally matches the scene though but not a skevey place either. I would return.

I'm so happy that I found some Substanz (pun intended) in my life! I've been missing the indie and…read morehipster dive bars in NYC, and this inconspicuous bar wholly fills the void. We came on a Friday evening, and there were many people but not overwhelmingly crowded. The place is adorable with its stuffed animals/flowers decor hung on the ceiling. There was a DJ spinning indie dance tracks, perfect to get me dancing. I saw that one could reserve tables there, and there are 2 Foosball tables, books on a shelf, electronic gambling slot machine -- pretty much one could not be bored there. I look forward to becoming a frequent customer.

This place is a Renaissance club - well-balanced, capable of fulfilling multiple roles. They call…read moreit Substanz, but it's really more like rehab, feeding both the body and the soul with sport & dance, food & drink, music & poetry. I first came to think of Substanz as my favourite indie dance club in Munich. The people are friendly, interesting and willing to get to know new faces, and the music starts early. They do play electronic and some hip hop stuff, but save that for much later in the evening. Sometimes folks are a little bashful to start the dance party off, but I've found that just one or two people getting up when they feel the beat seems to be enough to get things going here. Secondly, Substanz also frequently hosts poetry slams, so the young, artful souls of Munich find haunt and haven here too. Occasionally, they also host benefit parties, meaning that you can shake your groove thing and pay a small cover to go towards a great cause. Admission is €6 to the slams and the benefits are usually around €5 admission. Otherwise, there is no cover to get in here. Thirdly, Substanz is ultimately also a bar with television screens, meaning you can come here to watch the football (soccer) game of the night complemented by the liquid gold brewed by our good friends at Tegernsee and the fairly tasty bar snacks (wings, cheese sticks, etcetera).

We were in Munich for Octoberfest and staying nearby. I wandered in about lunchtime and asked if…read morethey had english language menus. They politely told me in broken english that was not possible so I knew we would be in for an authentic german meal at suppertime. Our party of 9 had a fabulous time. The beer was great, the food was great, the service was great. The band played what I think was german punk during Octoberfest. None of the staff spoke fluent english but that was not a problem. There were a couple of dogs (golden or lab retrievers) roaming around that were just part of the restaurant.. I don't think they get alot of americans so the owner (I think) came over to visit a while. We probably spend 4 hours dining and beer drinking. I absolutely plan on visiting again next time I go to Octoberfest.

Coraline, our server, was extremely personable and helpful in translating the full german menu. Yelp labels this place as German, but really it felt more just European. Maybe the larger portions made it German! Great value for the price and service. Menu changes weekly -- I'm sure everything's good. I got a mushroom pasta, sister got sesame-breaded whitefish, other sister got egg-breaded chicken. Both had salads included. We shared a bottle of white wine they had a deal on. Would come back! Especially due to the hazelnut liqueur shots on the house.
