If you're in Munich, this is a great place to go for beer, sausages, beer, and fun! We were there for dinner on a very rainy day, so dined inside in their basement beer hall. Everything was great, but I want to particularly praise the great potato and cucumber salad that was the perfect accompaniment to the mix of amazing sausages. Wunderbar! read more

Starkbierfest is amazing time. Great bier and food and singing and dancing. Would recommend the service with Katie. She is beautiful and fun and hopefully soon to be my first ex-wife. Please tell her I said "hello!" read more

Coldest and most obnoxious servise we have experienced in Munich. A very cool and historic place, but staffed by the most impersonal drones. The best I cam say is that at least the beer was cold. Never again read more

The Löwenbräukeller beer hall and brewery is fun to visit during normal times but during Octoberfest they are the main location for the Weisn pre-party and during Weisn they host the "WIESNZELT" at Stiglmaierplatz which is clubbing and the main "After Oktoberfest Party." When the tents at Oktoberfest are already closing the party is just getting started at the "Wiesnzelt" with celebrations in the Löwenbräukeller with three different clubbing areas: the big clubbing area, the relaxing terrace outside and the cozy "Turmstüberl" ("tower-room"). Starting at 10 pm - without closing time! This past Octoberfest the "Wiesnzelt" at Stiglmaierplatz went from 20th September to 5th October 2019. There are three ticket levels with standing room only, table reservations and VIP tickets. I went for the pre-party night with a table reservation and it delivered on their guaranteed beer tent party atmosphere with Oktoberfest beer, Bavarian delicacies and the greatest hits of the cult band Bergluft (formerly known as "Barfuss"). The food, beer, music and experience certainly provided a fun time for all. read more

Löwenbräukeller was the second beer hall that we visited on our recent trip to Munich. With a reservation set at 7:30 PM for Augustiner Keller, followed by a 10:15 PM reservation at Löwenbräukeller, this was our second stop of the night on our first night in Germany. These two spots are decently close to each other, so if planning a trip, know that you could easily walk from one to the other, and do both on the same night without taking a taxi. Although these beer halls are quite large, I highly recommend making reservations a month or two in advance, especially if you are visiting during Oktoberfest like we were. Our party of 6 was able to walk right in and sit at a prime table in front of a traditional band that was playing. Table service was quick and efficient. We ordered a second Mass of beer (33.8 ounces/1 liter) here, and I ordered a second round of spatzle, in hopes of finding one a bit less salty. Overall, the atmosphere was pretty fun. This beer hall definitely felt very traditional and classic. The spatzle was far better than the one I had earlier at Augustiner Keller, and was actually very, very delicious. Along with Augustiner, Löwenbräukeller is one of Munich's "Big 6" breweries, making this place a must stop on your beer crawl through Munich. While the atmosphere wasn't as fun as Augustiner Keller, we still enjoyed ourselves and felt like this place was worthwhile. Go ahead and check it out for yourself! read more

This was my first dining experience in Munich and the most memorable as well. All three sections of the place were open when I went (the biergarten, the bierhalle, and the restaurant). We made reservations to the restaurant and walked around the beer hall afterwards (Starkbeirfest). We had a great table and pretty good service. I'm thinking the service may have been a bit better because we had reserved a table. I did notice the walk-ins may have been ignored a bit. The food was excellent. Cooked well. Really great flavor. The starkbier was really really good. read more

The beer hall or restaurant is an easy stop to start or end your trip to Munich (or any other time). It's close to the main station (hauptbanhof ), just north and not in the touristy areas as many of the other beer halls. The building is beautiful and you can tell old, though it is not as big as some of the others. They have a restaurant, large beer hall and also have a great beer garden outside. We ate at the restaurant as it wasn't busy and the beer hall was not open. The food is transitional German items and everything we had was good. We ordered the Löwen burger (pulled pork burger), the Schwabenpfand'l (pork medallions on spatzel with a cheesy/creamy sauce with mushrooms in it), Bavarian meatballs, potato salad with cucumbers, and the crackling roast pork with potato dumplings. All were very large potions, especially the schwabenpfand'l which everyone had some and there were still leftovers. The sauces on the pork & meatballs was delicious. We also enjoyed the cucumbers & dill in the traditional vinegar based potato salad. The beers were tasty though some you can only order in liters. We were hoping to try dessert but were too full from the food and beer. read more

Tourist friendly (English menus available and servers seem to speak enough English to understand), beers by the liter if you must, and even an outdoor beer garden if you so please... I can only imagine how lit this place gets during Oktoberfest. Last of our stops while in Germany, and a solid one if you're looking for that beer hall and traditional fare experience. Ended up doing a full order of the crispy pork knuckle served with side of potato dumpling and sauerkraut in rich and hearty broth. Ooo wee that was good and plenty for two to share. For beer, I tried their Löwenbräu Triumphator which is 7.6% abv... let's just say I was feeling it toward the end. No live music going on the relatively quite Sunday afternoon we had visited, but all in all a solid experience. Service as with most places we visited in Munich was relatively minimal and slow. Kind of a standard thing as we learned from some family we had living out there. Also, their English menus don't contain all items as their German menu, but we whipped out google translate to see some of the differences which were relatively minor. Also, free wifi if you need it. Cell phone data speeds out in Germany aren't quite as fast as they are in the US. That's all I got on this one. 'Til next time, cheers! 207/365 read more

This restaurant was highly recommended on my "Find Me Gluten Free" app and it was 100% the right move! My family and I visited some museums then found ourselves famished. After looking into Löwenbräukeller, we were sold on positive reviews. We were struck by the beauty of the building as we approached and immediately bee-lined to the bier garten. We were quickly seated and had a fantastic view of the place. Our waiter, Omar, spoke English extremely well and was an absolute pleasure to have as a server. He made honest recommendations and reassured my GF choices (even though the menu was very well labeled). After a few refreshing gin and tonics, we ordered our meals. I ordered the smoked salmon salad along with a potato with sour cream. I don't know what their farmers do over there, but this was no ordinary potato; it was SO flavorful and tender. The smoked salmon was to die for and my plate was spotless. The portions were impeccable and the salmon salad seemed never-ending. 10/10 recommend this legendary establishment that is also one of the manufacturing locations for Löwenbräu beer! read more

The "hostess" was not welcoming , borderline rude. I had a made a reservation months before arriving and she wanted to seat us at a middle table close to entrance. There were many other open side tables. When I asked to sit at one of those she said they were reserved. That was an odd response given i had a reservation. She finally reluctantly relented and let us sit at a side table further back. Given we were already on edge from the table request we then met our "snobby" waiter. He seemed seasoned as a waiter and must've looked at us as just more annoying tourists. His affect also was not welcoming and condescending. When my husband asked for something that was not on the menu he replied in a mocking manner. Little did he know that my husband speaks fluent German so he pushed back on him regarding his ill mannered delivery. The food was ok typical brewery food. I will not be recommending this restaurant to anyone and will not return. The attitudes really were disappointing and not professional. Uncalled for. read more

Really cool place to be honest. But food was average, service was terrible. We stopped by for a quick dinner on a rainy evening. People who work there clearly did not care. One server (also the lady who initially sat us) literally took the menu away from me while I was looking at it and deciding what to order. Another server moved us to another table with a stranger and did not explain why. There were a lot of empty tables. He was not happy that we only ordered one round of drinks. So by the time we were paying, he already had two more customers standing right behind us waiting for our table. Again, not on a busy night. We have never been to a restaurant that made you want to leave right away. My husband joked that this was a soul crushing experience. read more

Went here last night in Munich, with close good friends and colleagues. What can I say about beer halls, where I have not done anything but enjoyed in the libations. It did have a pilsner that was fantastic, and nothing like the Lowenbrau I was used to in the states. Otherwise, it was a very nice open hall, with no fuss. Considering I didn't try any food, I'll leave it at that, with the photo of good friends. read more

We stopped here on the ways back from a day trip to Nymphenburg. I couldn't help but notice it on the way and nothing sounded better then a quick beer stop before heading back to the Aldstadt. This place is definitely no frills. I ordered the obtzda cheese to pair with a Helles and what a good decision that turned out to be. The beer was good, but not my favorite of the breweries that I visited including: Augustiner-Keller, Hofbrauhaus, and Schnieder Weisse. The problems then started when I tried to flag down the server to request another pretzel be deliver to my table so that I could appreciate the cheese in all of its glory. To say the least, the waiter did not like it at all and served all the other tables TWICE before whisking my leftovers away. To be fair, as Americans we've got to be a bit more obnoxious to the locals in terms of our service demands but this definetely felt unwarranted. Moral of the story: don't "demand" service and you'll be fine, the server will be back soon enough. The cheese made it worth it though. read more

We really enjoyed our experience at Löwenbräu. Our server was fantastic; she really helped us feel at-ease, in spite of us being able to speak a small amount of German. The interior is your classic German pub feel: high, arching ceilings, wide, bench-like tables where multiple parties are seated near each other; and a lively, friendly atmosphere for conversation. We made friends with a kind Dutch man who was in Munich for business travel. It's great to be able to talk with strangers and hear about other parts of the world while eating dinner. Löwenbräu does have an English-translated menu, which was a nice benefit. My wife and I each ordered a dish that had pork (meat loaf, I believe they called it), two fried eggs, and potatoes. Simple dish, tons of food to eat. I believe it was around 10 Euros, or $12.50 USD based on the current exchange rate. Definitely recommend it. read more

I really like Löwenbräukeller more than Hofbräuhaus for several reasons. Their food is better and less expensive especially classics specials like 1/2 pork knuckle and 1/4 farm duck for $9.80 euros. Their beer is excellent and available in three sizes, and cheaper. It is less touristy. Service is good and they are happy to bring English menus if requested. We enjoyed their outdoors beer garden. Their desserts of Bavarian cream and apple beignets were excellent. They also have a self-service dining area for customers wanting beer and snacks. You can take the subway here and exit at the closer Stiglmaierplatz station or walk 0.8 miles from Hauptbahnhof station. We walked from Hauptbahnhof station which was fun because Lowenbrau is located in a cool diverse neighborhood of ethnic restaurants-businesses. read more

This is a cool Beer Hall accross the street from the Löwenbräu Brewery with some pretty good german eats. They've got a fairly large patio for drinking on a nice day. Located at the Stiglmaier Platz, this place has been open since 1883, although it was mostly destroyed in a bombing raid in 1944 (and recently renovated) it still maintains and old school feel. Great Beer, Good Food and on the right day great company. I reccomend the Keller for some pork or sausages or just beer. If you don't speak German just ask for the English Menu... read more

I love Löwenbräu for a casual Bavarian weekend lunch or cozy weeknight date. The biergarten in the summer has its own mellow charm, but there's nothing like a leisurely hot meal in a cavernous, ancient building to remind me what I love about Munich. We stopped in today on the way back from a day trip. We knew we could count on Löwenbräu to be open during the awkward post-lunch pre-dinner hours on a Sunday, and it's large enough that getting a table is almost never an issue. We were greeted immediately, and although we resisted beer we gave in to some serious comfort-food cravings; Schweinebraten for my husband and Kaiserschmarrn for me. Both were great, neither were the best we'd ever had, and it's a little pricey for lunch - our bill (with two glasses of schorle) came to 38 EUR including tip. It took a few minutes to get our server's time & attention when we were ready to pay, but I'd chalk that up partly to the fact that we'd seated ourselves behind a massive column. Overall this visit reflected our typical Löwenbräu experience: tasty, satisfying, and deeply Bavarian. A good place to bring foreign visitors for a casual meal, and a reliable neighborhood alternative to crowded trendier spots. read more

The staff is a little stressed out, but after a little while we always get what we ordered. Unfortunately the Biergarten is located directly at the Nymphenburger Str. so it's a bit noisy. The menu has all of the usual (bavarian) items on it. We had Schnitzel and Bratkartoffeln, Salad with strips of Steak, Semmelknödel with mushroom sauce, a Brotzeit platter, Weißwürste, and so on. Everything tasted good. The prices are a little higher then in the other Biergärten (p.e. Augustiner Keller) but they are still ok. We are coming back (since it's the closest Biergarten to where we live)... read more

The staff is friendly and English friendly, which is always helpful, and the ambiance is exactly what you would hope for in a German beer house.

I have been here once before for Oktoberfest. They throw a huge party at Oktoberfest that starts in the evening and continues way into the night. The Oktoberfest event requires a ticket for entrance, which you can buy in advance or at the door. It's a huge building with a large hall, and they had a 12 piece rock band, food, and booze galore. Check it out for Oktoberfest! The rest of the year, it seems like they only have the beer garden and a small part of the restaurant inside open. The food is great, the beer is fresh and plentiful, and the service is wonderful. Note, there is a lot of smoking in the beer garden. If that bothers you, go inside and get a seat. Forget the Haufbreau House and give this place a try...less crowded, more authentic, and about 20% cheaper! read more

This was one of my favorite and one of the best restaurant/beer garden ever! On our first night out, my friends and I came here for dinner. We sat outside in the cold, but luckily there are blankets on each chair. For food, we ordered 2 cold platters of the Braustuberl bread board so we all could share. My boyfriend and I also had an appetizer of the Bavarian Original Obatzda. For entrees, we had the sausage platter and the Giant Wiener Schnitzel. And last but not least, we had the Lowenbrau original liter beers. It was such a beautiful and magical night. We all definitely had a good time and hope to come back again. read more

Löwenbräukeller is conveniently located by the U-bahn station (Stiglmaierplatz), so we conveniently went there on a Saturday night for dinner. To me, it was the least rowdy of the beer halls, and I enjoyed the ambience there more than the other places. Their menu is creative, printed in a newsletter format. A fair amount of selection for food. I got the "Semmelknödel mit Rahm-Pilze" (bread dumplings with creamy mushrooms), and that was satisfying and satiating. Unfortunately, the crucial thing that I do not like is the beer. The Dunkel was simply too sweet for my palate that I actually prefer the Helles, which was also too sweet for me. I like beers with a slightly bitter aftertaste, so my dis-preference could be somebody else's preference. read more

Lowenbraukeller was introduced to me as an authentic Bavarian style restaurant, and not being a local, I can't vouch for it's authenticity....only that it's delicious. They have a fairly large dining hall, and a few more intimate rooms that seat around a private party of 20 or so. Service was very good and they kept the beer flowing and selection of food was quite good with traditional desserts and apertifs. read more

Solid Biergarten in the heart of the city. Next to self service area, where you can bring your own food or get the usual suspects in a Biergarten. On top of that, tarte Flambee and burgers, freshly prepared. Then there is the serviced area, where you can plow through a Schweinebraten or Leberkaese but as well some lighter fair, such as salads are available. Why not a top rating? Well, service is hit or miss, depending on who you get. The prices are typical Munich, but a pile of leaves with a piece of pan fried turkey for 16 EUR is a bit steep. And last but not least - but that is of course nothing to change - I am not a fan of Loewenbraeu. Or the fact, that almost all "Munich" beer is now owned by large international conglomerates. In this case: AB-InBev. read more

I really thought this place was cool. It was where I went for dinner my first night in Munich and I think it set a good tone. It resembles a typical German beer hall, which you probably enjoy as a visitor. The service was awesome. Our orders were taken promptly and food was brought right away. The server also saw us take our phones out and came over and gave us a password for the wifi without us having to even ask. We got the sampler type for two, although he brought it for three and didn't charge us. Everything on the plate was awesome and I highly recommend. The highlight was the chicken. Holy chicken skin Batman! It was crispy and rendered fatty goodness. I would definitely recommend and will return. read more
