Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
( 223 613; Frauenstrasse 42; 11.30am-11pm Mon-Sat; Isartor, Isartor)
Near the Isartor, this pleasingly twisted beer garden is centred on a snug courtyard.
There's a hedge maze, a fresco with a bizarre bunch of historical figures and a golden bull
that's illuminated at night.
Master's Home
( 229 909; Frauenstrasse 11; Reichenbachplatz)
Colonial era trappings such as
zebra skins, African spears, dark wood panelling and random pieces of taxidermy, plus
plenty of antique furnishings and oddities such as a dining space in a bathroom, make this
a wholly incongruous place for a time-warped snifter. The food menu is Italian flavoured.
BAR
Schumann's Bar
( 229 060; Odeonsplatz 6-7; 8am-3am Mon-Fri, 6pm-3am Sat & Sun;
Odeonsplatz)
Urbane and sophisticated, Schumann's has been shaking up Munich's night-
life with libational flights of fancy in an impressive range of more than 220 concoctions.
It's also good for weekday breakfasts.
BAR
Viktualienmarkt
(Viktualienmarkt 6; 9am-10pm; Marienplatz, Marienplatz)
After a day of sight-
seeing or shopping stock up on tasty nibbles at the Viktualienmarkt, then lug your loot a
few steps further to this chestnut-shaded beer garden, a Munich institution since 1807.
The breweries take turns serving here, so you never know what's on tap.
BEER GARDEN
Café Cord
(Sonnenstrasse 19; 11am-1am Mon-Sat; Karlsplatz, Karlsplatz, Karlsplatz)
Set back from busy Sonnenstrasse in a modern precinct, clean-cut Cord is a good stop for
a light lunch or coffee, or an ideal first stop on the club circuit. In summer, the super-deli-
cious global fare tastes best in the romantic, twinkle-lit courtyard.
