I just moved to Munich - what a wonderful city! Fantastic mixture of historic tradition and anarchic alternatives, accessibly modern and suprisingly friendly. From the moment you arrive in the well-designed (of course!) airport -they check your passport and you pick your luggage up straight at the gate - right the way through to literaly hundreds of independent bars and restaurants it's one the nicest cities in the world!
Best bars are in the Glockenbachviertel. For good restaurants try Schwabing and Liehl. Great beer gardens everywhere.
One of the four huge clubbing areas in Munich - also a place for beach volleyball and climbing during the day.
Wide range of clubs and food locales.
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!

Founded in 1994 the Atomic Café is still a beacon in Munich nightlife. With an everyday changing programme, the Atomic tries to span a bridge between today's lifestyle and the 50s, 60s, and 70s music. Nevertheless you can listen there to Brit Guitar, Brit Pop, electronic, drum'n'bass, rock and reggae, too of course. Just have a look into the agenda!
Cool interior, beautiful people. A lot of concerts; then it can get pretty expensive, but it's a real experience!
They tell you it's air-conditioned, but no one believes it. Strict door policy, stay polite and patient...
