It's a beautiful pub with friendly service. It serves Bitburger, does a brilliant plate of Eisbein (pig's trotters) and, on the occasions I went, wasn't used by too many tourists. One thing worth remembering is that if 1860 Munich are at home, the place is packed and can be a bit unnerving. That's the only downside though

Just off Marienplaz in the city centre.

A cafe in a largely residential area which offers a wide range of drinks, a hilarious 'landlord' (inside joke, sorry), and you can even get a Guinness and have a game of bingo there on a Sunday evening. And it's not even run by anyone remotely English. Has to be experienced to be understood.

Few locals drink in "the Tal" - try a relaxed beer with the Bavarians at a Paulaner pub. If you must drink in the Tal - try Weisses BrauHaus for a Schneider-Weisse and spanferkel :)

A lively bar with free live music every day of the week. The bar shares a cellar with Ned Kellys, an Australian bar next door which will be the place to head when the Aussies kick off their World Cup campaign.

This must be the most famous of all the beer halls in Munich. We went there on a Saturday lunchtime and were entertained by an Umpa band in traditional lederhausen.

Huge, rightly famous, beer hall. People packed together on benches at tressle tables to drink excellent beer in vast quantities, served and kept in order by formidable, efficient hospital matron style waitresses.

The Cord is a bar and café with dancing (as they describe themselves...) right between the Karlsplatz/Stachus and the Sendlinger Tor. A nice and loud place for the evening and as it's in the second floor you have a very urban overview over the bright streets. Watch the traffic and the tramways go by, while enjoying a nice cocktail and talking to nice people! At the weekend there is a moderate entrance fee, on weekdays (or better: weeknights) it's free!
