This is the central taxi for the whole of Munich. Very reliable. I prefer using this than phoning…read morethe number of the local taxi station points at kerbside - as drivers there sometimes fail to show up - but using this central number your call is logged and always handled professionally. Official taxis are more expensive than uber etc but regulation and safety is important to me. and these local companies pay taxes - which pays for roads etc . and are not owned (like uber is) by human rights abusing regimes like Saudi & Qatar, so i feel better. You can still pay cash and cards and probably other means in some. Stay local, support local businesses not abusive gig economy companies. update 18.10.2019 because my caller id was not showing they dropped my call and didn't order the taxi while i looked up my number. that's bad service. i'm watching them - called back with caller ID on and everything ok. jeez p

We transited through here to get to Salzburg and see a few nearby castles while in town for 9 days. We found it a bit more confusing to navigate than the Central Station but were easily able to find snacks and foods for lunch and find our platforms.

We took many a train to and from our second "home base", Marienplatz. The thing that I loved about starting and ending at Ostbhanhof was the fact that we could take practically any train - going in the correct direction, of course - if we wanted to stop at Marienplatz. That meant we rarely had to wait for a train, which was an added bonus, given we were there in the middle of winter, and there is no shelter from the cold, wind and rain on the platforms. Signage is plentiful, there are plenty of ticket machines scattered throughout the station, and one can buy anything from pastries and coffee to lotions and toothpaste without having to leave the relative warmth of the station itself. Our last train out of Ostbahnhof was the one to Salzburg, so we were able to connect locally as well as "internationally". It definitely made it easy for weary travelers, with just a bit of German language on their side.
