Frommer's Recommended

Opened in 1888 and rebuilt in a blandly modern style after the ravages of World War II, this cafe once attracted such notables as Ibsen, Kandinsky, Johann Strauss the Younger, and other musicians, artists, and authors, as well as members of the royal court of Bavaria. What you'll find today, however, is mainstream workaday Munich stopping in for a pastry, a platter of food, coffee, or beer. There's a more formal restaurant associated with the place, but we tend to prefer the cafe section. A large beer costs 3€ to 4€ ($3.60-$4.80); coffee starts at 2.50€ ($3).
