One of the oldest taverns in Munich, this Wirtshaus with a yawning vaulted room and beer steins all over the place makes you feel welcome, hungry, and thirsty! It has an excellent combination of fantastic service and outstanding local dishes. It serves everything from Hofente (roast duck) to Schweinsbraten (roast pork), but the real specialty is Knödel (dumplings), which, in addition to traditional Semmel (bread) and Kartoffel (potato) varieties, come in spinach, cheese, and even red-beet flavors. Weather permitting, you can sit in the small beer garden under, of course, chestnut trees. It's only a three-minute walk from the bridge at the Deutsches Museum.

One must try the knödel - at least once. This is a good place to enjoy the Bavarian kitchen. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, and large servings.
