I had the best experience here. I knew when I visited Munich that I wanted to buy a quality Dirndl…read moreat a reasonable price. We were staying in Old Town and I got the impression you could really only find very expensive, designer ones or touristy, low quality ones. After a lot of research, I saw Trachten Rausch come up multiple times. I walked to the store and was immediately greeted by a young saleswoman who figured out my size quickly and whisked me away to a small changing room. She brought a few options, helped me in and out of them and we settled on two final options - both reasonably priced (do not expect to spend less than 150 euro on anything quality). I chose the one I wanted and was rung up and out the door. Both sales women I spoke with spoke excellent English and didn't make me feel bad about my very poor German speaking skills. This was an excellent experience - the dirndls are beautiful and I'm excited to wear mine!

Trust me when I say women get good service here and English speaking men are out of luck. The service is rushed and pressured. The male employee was pushy and didn't even know how to size me. I shopped multiple stores in Munich and found Angermaier near Marienplatz to be amazing. The selection for both men and women was fantastic. The employees are friendly and educated. The prices are not low end but they have mid and upper level stuff. I don't write reviews to punish a business, but I know there are people like me who want the full Oktoberfest experience and buying traditional clothes in a foreign country is confusing. My experience was bad here and world class somewhere else.

The chai is homemade and DELICIOUS. The cakes are fine specimens of the baking arts...and are DELICIOUS. Panini - DELICIOUS. Coffee - DELICIOUS. They must have some very high quality espresso machines, because the coffee comes out so rich and creamy. It seems that every item in this place is for sale. So if you like your table, or chair, or the whole set, or the dishware, ask the service what it would cost to take it home. However, do not ask the service how much to take them home. I don't think they operate THAT kind of establishment. The bathroom is a journey back to 1913, but in a cute, nostalgic way. You'll see what I mean. The only drawback about this place is the lack of wifi. But hey - maybe it's better to come here to unwind and unplug anyway. That coffee and cake sure deserve your undivided attention...

Sort of like most cheap second hand shops you have to dig, but they've done a lot of that for you, so leave the shovel at home and just bring a bit of patience. As far as selection, it can be a hit and miss, but I almost always walk out of there buying something great to add to my wardrobe, without having to think about how much I've spent. The old ladies who work there are classy, elderly, and dear to my heart. There are a couple more of these stores in Munich... don't be fooled, this one's the best.

Shopping here is very much a treasure hunt to find good deals so you will need to be patient. That said, I didn't really like the product selection nor did I like the pricing. Felt like I could get better deals back in the US. If you have the time to search and can deal with crowds, you may come up with something here but I would rather sightsee or eat and drink than spend time looking for an elusive find.

In the afternoon, I would stop by the pickle guy and buy a few of the best pickles I've ever eaten. So many choices from sweet to sour, spicy and my favorite a super sour with a spicy horseradish.
