Even though there's room for improvement, I can recommend this place to any out-of-towner making her/his Beer Pilgrimage to Munich and who has yet to nosh on Bavaria's famed "Weisswurst Fruehstuck". Thus, four shiny, pointy ones!
First, the individual grades:
Location: 5 Stars. This place has a nice situation right in the Altstadt and outdoor seating. If tables are full, you'll have to sit inside. We tried asking for an extra table outside and the guy just shook his head without saying a word. Okayyyyy...a simple "Nein" would have sufficed. However, the inside is AWESOME and a fair trade for sitting under the sun. If you haven't already on your trip felt like you've immersed yourself in Deutschland, you'll feel it while you're eating (inside) here.
Weißwürst: 3 Stars.
Our four sausages (two apiece) were tasty and definitely homemade, but other homemade sausages have even more taste.
Brezel: 2.5 Stars.
Brezel here was definitely an under-performer for us because it was already getting a little firm. We had our breakfast at almost 2PM though, so I think that time of day had more to do with the Brezel's condition than the restaurant.
Mustard (Senf): 5 Stars.
Brilliant mustard that really let us know we were eating a genuine Weißwürst Frühstuck. Süsser (sweet) Senf, of course!
Hefeweizen (Bavarian for Beer ;) ) and Customer Service: 5 Stars.
There is obviously only one type of beer to drink when eating a Weißwürst Frühstuck...WEIZN!!! They offer Paulaner, and it looks on the menu like they offer Weizn as both Helles (Light) and Dunkles (Dark). So when I ignorantly ordered two Helles, the proprietor brought us two Helles, but not Hefeweizen. If you've ever had to confront customer service in Germany before, you'll understand me when I say that I had to work myself up to bring the beers back to the bar and correct my order. Surprisingly, the guy was really nice about it and brought us our Hefeweizen very promptly.
While I'm on the topic, I'll add that customer service here is courteous, not rushed, and food comes out in a timely manner. Remember though, that this is Germany and no one will force you to leave or to pay. So when you're ready, don't be afraid to flag/chase someone down and tell them so.
Useful Tip #1: The restrooms are down a steep staircase. I was dealing with a knee injury at the time and so negotiating the staircase took a little extra time and effort. Keep this in mind if you're travelling with someone on crutches or a wheelchair.
On the whole, a very pleasant experience that you'll remember fondly when you leave Munich! read more
