by acemj Munich's most famous beer hall is also its most touristy. However, since it's so close to the city center, you're bound to walk by, so it's worth a look if not for the food, at least to check out the size and atmosphere of the place. The place is huge complete with an Oompah band and an outdoor beer garden toward the left rear of the building. If you need to accommodate a large party of drinkers, this would be a good place, but be forewarned, the beer is more expensive here than at most, if not all, of the other beer halls and the food is decent, but nothing spectacular. Richie and I took a stroll through the Hofbrauhaus on my first afternoon in town and he told me about its history as one of Hitler's favorite hangouts. Then, a couple days later, we decided to give a meal a try. It actually wasn't bad, but again, if you're looking for high quality food, you could do better.

by chancay Once in Munich you MUST pass by the Platzl to see this so famous "drinking hall". This really huge "pub" and brewery was founded 1589. Until this year Munich imported its beer from the city of Einbeck in Lower Saxony because the local beer was not good enough. Because of the high transport costs duke Wilhelm V. of Bavaria searched for alternatives. September 1589 his chamberlain and counsellors Ch. Strabl, A. Amasmeyr, S. Prew and G. Griesmair submitted the idea of bulding a brewery. ...well, to get all the info and more have a look at the homepage, it is english as well. Leave a Comment

 Hofbräuhaus by 68_snow_man It's a nice place to see how does Oktoberfest looks like: fun, music, beer and... not so good food. Well, you'll get what you can expect from any touristic place. All the area around is worth a visit, so pass by also at this place. And maybe after one Maß you don't care much about the food quality ;-) Leave a Comment

Ok, first of all..... YES !!!! this place is touristy, and YES... this place is crowded !!!! and Yes.... This place is more expensive than the average beer hall !!!!! But if your gonna come to Bavaria and have only 1 beer ..... let it be here !!!!!!! The place is a must do no matter what, the waiter's are as friendly as they can be, as soon as they realize you don't speak Bavarian or German, they give you an English menu (that by the way the menu makes a great souvenir) The prices for a big stein is 8 Euro's and ladies dressed in there traditional Bavarian clothing go around selling huge preztels for 4 Euro's each. There are live bands playing traditional Bavarian music and people are just having a blast !!!!! Spent about 3 hours here having a great time, but could only drink 2 steins !!!!!!! They also have a great gift shop as you enter, prices are steep, but be warned buy a size bigger than you wear, they are very small compared to the US sizes !!!!! Leave a Comment Directions: In the Historic downtown area literally in front of Hard Rock Cafe !!!!!

 Adriana and I by Maggies Hofbrauhaus is the place for drinking litres of Hofbrau beer, shouting, singing, dancing, having fun and enjoying Bavarian style. The old beerhall used to be Hitler's hung out place, but you can still have fun here today. The swastica on the ceiling is covered up with Bavarian flag now. I had lots of fun here and I still keep singing Anton aus Tirol, just like I was doing for the whole night after leaving Hofbrauhaus.!!!

 Paolo, Wolfie and Hanna..drinking another beer..! by piccolina The Hofbräuhaus is a central beer hall in Munich. This is the most touristy of the beer halls . The upstairs Festsaal in the Hofbräuhaus is notorious for being the site of one of the first large meetings of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (the Nazi Party) in 1920, at which Hitler presented his 25 point plan, which was to become the basis for the party.

by BruceDunning There has not been a place like this around. The locals and the tourists like the fun and noise and music, going into the night. Of course beer drinking is the thing to loosen up the tongue. If you try two at once, you may spill some. My 4 trips here have all been enjoyable. Walk home.

by mjmarble This world famous resturant lives up to its billing: beer, tourists, beer, omp-ah band, beer, common tables, beer, drunken revelry, followed by a healthy helping of beer. This was my last major meal before getting sick, and I enjoyed it. One note of caution for those who don't speak much German, I firmly believe the our waiter here tried to rip us off. So be careful and check your bill, even in your given state. Food wasn't bad, but you come here for the atmosphere, friendships, beer, and as a tourist it is a law you have to. Leave a Comment Directions: It is realatively close to the city center, but back amounst the side streets. It is not a very discript buildying, but look for the big blue HB and you know you're there. Also, there's a Planet HollyOther Contact: This is a rather poor picture, b

The Hofbräuhaus am Platzl, arguably the most famous beer hall worldwide, is located in the city centre. It also operates the second largest tent at the Oktoberfest, one of Munich´s most famous attractions. You can eat all Bavarian specialities. We had " Weißwürste " , traditionally eaten before 12 p.m., served with sweet mustard and freshly baked Brezen ( pretzels) Leave a Comment Address: Am Platzl 9Phone: 0049 89-290136-0Directions: centreWebsite: www.muenchen.de Other Contact: fax: 089-227586
