To be frank, I loved the look of the place more than the place itself. The hubs and I thought that…read moretagescafé Schwabing had just opened, so spiffy did the place look and not quite totally spot on was the grub. I had a gorgeous-looking croissant served with a solid portion of raspberry preserves. -loved the preserves. The hubs ordered the Deftig, a small platter of toast, meat and cheese. The toast, thick-cut and toasty on the outside, soft and malleable just under the surface, was served with a hunk of fridge-cold butter. The result by spreading was a torn mess of bread decorated with clumps of butter. Meh. (The place has actually been open since Nov. 2013, btw.) The brie was OK; the cold cuts flavorful. I enjoyed the carrot-ginger-apple juice, but, as a HUGE carrot juice fan, really would have preferred it sans apple as the combo just tastes like a watery carrot-ginger juice. The juice serving is fairly modest and the price less so. The hubs ordered a cappuccino that was too hot and, sez hubs, the milk wasn't nicely integrated into the espresso. There was also mention of the capp not having 'microfoam'. Anyway, if you want a killer bevvie, then go on up the street to Necado before or after a visit here. You will NOT be disappointed. Upon arriving, we were not sure if one were to order at the counter or at the table. As we sat perusing the menu, a friendly server came to take our order. Easy-peasy. The place is almost small enough to ask the staff behind the counter for the bill without them having to come over or without one having to leave one's seat. As we were attempting to pay, the folk behind the counter were busy doing something just beyond eye-contact range. I got up to ask for the bill and was quoted the price at counter. Wallet fetched and bill paid. Easy. Based on that experience I would think that ordering/paying at t.S. is fairly chill, so, really, do what you like in terms of that. One can also sit at the window--sort of on a very wide sill--at quite short-legged tables resembling almost lil' foot stools. One faces the table while one's lower half faces a quarter turn the other direction. -all well and good for somewhat physically flexible folk, but for the hubs, who has back problems, it was not a good spot. Attracted to the interior, I would like to return and, maybe, try another type of beverage and another nibble and hope for the best! PS: tagescafé Schwabing doesn't have a website, but instead a Facebook page to which they post their daily menu. Check it: https://www.facebook.com/pages/tagescaf%C3%A9-Schwabing/224692437694004

A gorgeous unassuming cafe meters from the U Bahn station at Josephsplatz. I have walked by this…read moreplace numerous times and today we decided to give it a go. It seems like it's been here for ages and, the cafe has that beautiful old world charm about it. I love the inheritors here and it's totally understated yet super cool :-)) I was transported back to the golden days as soon as I stepped in. The menu here is small and has some lunch specials and they serve dinner till 8pm. We ordered coffee and shared a piece of nut cake. The cake was delicious, moist and spongy unlike cakes you get in most places around town and, I would happily give it 5 stars. The coffee was also quite ok and I enjoyed it. The owner was very friendly and casual and quick to serve us. There is a bit of outdoor seating here and I think we will spend some time out here if we end up getting a few days of summer. I really had no idea how nice this place was and I will definitely be back for cake and coffee anytime. A little gem in the area :-))

Considering its VERY humble appearance from the street, this place is truly a hidden culinary gem…read more The owner is saucy, gracious, funny and a genuinely talented chef. I'd come here a few times for breakfast when I first moved to the neighborhood, and had once enjoyed a delicious bowl of pasta at lunchtime on a weekday, but could never convince my husband to try it; he took one look at the shabby exterior & outdated sign and was not interested. Finally, tonight was my night. We have guests, all of us hungry and tired after a long day, and the other restaurants on our street were fully booked... I knew I had to strike. As soon as we walked into the lushly decorated, quiet interior, I was afraid I'd made a mistake - it almost seemed closed. We wandered toward the back where we encountered the owner, and he made some good-natured comments about not having much food left, and "being alone in the kitchen" tonight. We joked right back, and he listed a few dishes he could whip up, if necessary, for 4 weary diners... everything sounded amazing, and we all settled on the Tagliatelle with Truffle Butter and Champignons for simplicity's sake. He warned us it would take awhile and left us with our fresh, cold beer to relax in the quiet room and chat. Half an hour later we were digging into our perfectly-prepared, heavenly mountains of pasta. The lighting was a little too "romantic" to get a good shot of the dishes, but they were beautifully presented. We devoured our meals without speaking a word - a definite indicator the food was exceptional. I have the sense that everything at Cafe am Josephsplatz is prepared with care, and from the finest ingredients. It isn't a place to rush in and out of, and you also don't get the feeling that they're just mass-producing piles of pasta or pizza after pizza, as with some Italian restaurants. Oddly enough, our bill came to just €12 per person - for the delectable dinner and beer combined. I almost thought he'd made a mistake. TL;DR: My skeptical husband practically licked his plate. We'll be back.

You can come here, order a coffee or a beer (which is pretty most like drinking water in Germany) and chat with your friends. Staff is nice, lots of bikes and cool furniture. But let's not forget about the prices. This was by far the cheapest bar I've drank in Munich. Beers for 1,30 euro? Yes, this is possible. Anyway, enjoy your time here and be careful going up the stairs.

The ambience here is quite nice and there is outdoor seating for warm days. The only drawback to the outdoor seating is that it's on a noisy main road. I have walked past this place a few times and we finally decided to give it a try. For what is a somewhat cool place I was totally disappointed at the push button coffee machines. The coffee was quite ordinary and lukewarm. I must admit I did not like the coffee here at all. We are so spoiled for choice for good coffee in the area. The menu is small but enough choices for lunch and breakfast. There is a daily specials board as well. I tried the chorizo omelette and it was ok. Without the chorizo this would have been a bland omelette. I also tried the Bircher muesli and I am afraid it was the worst Bircher muesli I have had since moving to Europe. It was tasteless and had soft overripe pear which tasted pretty ordinary. To be fair i would not rate the food more then 2.5 stars. The coffee would be a 1 star for me. Overall I would not rate it more than 2.5 but would be ok with a 3. In a suburb with so many great places for coffee and breakfast, I would have to be desperate to come back here again. As I always say no matter what the ambience is like, I come here to eat ;-) if the food is average no matter what else is great, it barely makes up for it.

Our dim-witted server didn't know a word of English which is completely fine. But didn't attempt to give any suggestions or explain the bullshit menu. Why the 1 star? After the lights flickered a bit we waited another 15 minutes watching other patrons get served she says some shit in German then thankfully another guest a delightful woman told us that the electrical was off in the kitchen and food wasn't available... At all. After which I saw this moron bring out meat and cheese plates to not one not two but THREE different tables. 3 euros for a cup of tea and beyond shit service? Yea right. In short if you're going to have some coffee and some food walk right down the block to coffee mamas for better prices and service. Maybe it was because we didn't speak the language maybe it was because we were American or maybe it was my skin color either way I'll never be back to this joke of a cafe. Cheers.
