Attention: This review only applies to the self-service area of the beer garden!
Although the beer garden has enjoyed increasing popularity among tourists with limited beer garden experience in recent years, it is still possible to spend a fun and pleasant evening at one of the tables, which are heavily visited at any time in good weather, with a corresponding willingness to communicate. The price of beer is still moderate by Munich standards, the price increase for a cyclist's measure of 4.90% from 2023 to 2024 is in the lower average of Munich's beer gardens, and the flair under the old chestnut trees is usually described as cosy. As a local, I still feel comfortable in the Augustinian cellar even after decades.

What a great place! A wonderful beer garden with plenty of large umbrellas to keep off the rain. Heaters and rugs to keep out the cold. Lots of locals and lots of tourists so I found the vibe fun and friendly. The staff are all dressed in local costumes. I found them perfectly friendly and efficient. Although I speak reasonable German, they also speak good English.
The food is mostly Bavarian with a selection of traditional and vegetarian. They do a daily specials menu, plus the usual standard menu. I had a medley of sausages on a bed of sauerkraut and fried potatoes. Not great for the calorie conscious, but I thought it was delicious.
I tried all three beer styles; pils, dark, or Dunkel, and weiß beer. I think my preference was the weiß beer. All from their own brewery. But it is one of the biggest breweries in Munich. Delicious.

Wanted an authentic beer house in Germany and chanced upon this. Was glad we tried it for the experience. Atmosphere was good and there is a good selection of food to go with the main course, which is the beer of course. When we went, it was jam packed. Managed to find a seat in the open area where you had to go get your food/drinks and pay immediately, like Ikea or Marche style. Giant pretzels were warm and awesome. Not quite enough non-alcoholic choices but probably not a valid feedback even if I were to raise it. Great indoor halls. We didnt eat in there but popped in to snap some photos. All things considered, worth going.

A terrible disappointment! We had reserved a table for Christmas Day 4 months before and then found ourselves placed in Lagerkeller among lousy American tourists. The food was below normal Augustiner level and the beer glass was not topped to 0,5l. We considered this ’a tourist experience’ - quite far from the time when we used to live in Munich and visit the restaurant every now and then.

We were 14 people and booked 1 week in advance. We were assigned 2 tables , with one already sitting 4 Frenchmen. The place was way too narrow. At all other tables were only people, with us 10 !!! especially the strangers felt very harassed by us. Then the big provocation, the managing director Mr. M. Fleischer reacted quite prepotently: He admits that he does not care, indirectly tells us that we should "sneak".
I can't rate the food and drink. Both we and the French were very upset. NEVER AGAIN.
My recommendation: all other Bräus, there we were welcomed everywhere friendly and perfect.
This place has too many guests and no e good customer service, no wonder with this managing director.

Beer was big and decent, was quite busy but took an age for the server to take our order (ok it seems to be a Munich thing).
Food was tasty, pork knuckle and a schnitzel, and service improved as it got later. Waiter accidently spilled beer over my wife's lap, very apologetic but may have been nice to take that drink off the bill and not be so pushy about requesting a tip.
That said I have been here before and will come again.

Located in the Aldstadt(Old Town) a few minutes walk from Marienplatz is the AugustinerKeller which is one of the few buildings left standing after WWII and parts are reputed to date back to the 14th century.
It has a very authentic feel to it, it is deceptively large and has lots different sections. The service is fast and efficient, the food is good and of course the beer is excellent. I went for the darker draft beer instead of the normal pils larger and it was very tasty. The litre mugs proved daunting initially, but we soon got used to them!!

Last weekend my husband and I visited Munich. We had a late lunch in the – recommended – Augustiner Keller. First it is very hard to get a smoke-free table, it seems everyone smokes in this restaurant. The meal was so so, maybe typical Bavarian, but not really something special. When I received the bill, the waitress said that she forgot to put the ‘bretzels’ on the bill and asked how many we had. After answering two she wrote an extra 2,25 Euro on the receipt. I should have been more aware that she was cheating us from the beginning. In total it had become 41 Euro and I gave her my credit card. After the transaction I put an extra 3 Euro (in Europe the service is included in the price!) and I wrote a total of 44 Euro.
This morning I checked my transactions on-line and found out that the restaurant not only charged me the 44 but also an extra 3 Euro. It is not much, but I just don’t like this fraud. So be aware when you pay with your credit card. It seems they think that you either don’t notice this small fraud or won’t take action!

This is a HUGE beer hall in Munich which I had high hopes for due to great reviews while I was there.
The beer was good and really liked the place, but was blatantly ignored by one of the waiters. He took our drinks order and then busied himself doing something else right in front of us for 10 minutes !
I wouldn't have minded, but we made a point of learning how to say 'excuse my please' and 'can we have another round of drinks please' in German, so we were perfectly polite enough.
He was more than happy chatting to the German clientele though so it must've been just us Brits !!

We visited Munich in February-so we did not get to experience the full outdoor summer beergarden atmosphere-but for the indoors this place was tops! The basement (keller) is so cool. Definitely head down there for a table. The Augustiner beer is known around Munich as the best by the locals. The beer comes right out of the wood barrels here. It was our favorite hands down as well. You will be seated at big picnic style tables, usually with other people. Makes for a fun night out. The food was good and hearty traditional german, but really you are here for the beer and the atmosphere. They also have baskets of large soft pretzels on the tables you can eat. They just charge you when you pay your bill. Nice concept!
I would definitely choose this at the top place over the other beerhalls we visited (Lowenbraukeller and Hofbrauhaus). We visited twice in our 3 days.
