Hofbräuhaus

Hofbräuhaus am Platzl

Munich's most famous beer hall; though highly touristy, it maintains a solid reputation and is perfect for first-timers to experience the beer hall atmosphere.

Located on the Platzl square in the Old Town, this beer hall's signatures are roasted pork knuckle, roasted pork, and half a roasted chicken, all paired with Hofbräu beer. While often described as touristy, food bloggers still praise the quality of the dishes. The ground-floor hall (Schwemme) and the beer garden do not accept reservations—guests find their own tables to share; only the first-floor Bräustüberl can be booked. The kitchen serves until 22:00. Located near Marienplatz and easily accessible on foot.
