The Hofbräuhaus München is not just any old beer hall; it's a legendary spot with a history dating back to 1589 when it was founded by Bavarian Duke Wilhelm the 5th. Originally serving beer exclusively to the Bavarian court, it later opened its doors to the public in 1828 under King Ludwig the 1st. With its iconic HB logo and rich tradition of brewing high-quality beer, this place is more than just a tavern – it's a cultural hub where people come together to enjoy Bavarian cuisine, world-famous beer, and authentic music. Stepping into the Hofbräuhaus is like stepping into a piece of Munich's vibrant history and spirit.
You might think of it as a rowdy beer hall (and it can be later at night) but if you come during the day it is just a typical Bavarian restaurant where you are welcome to bring kids as well.
