In central Munich, at the very heart of historic Bavaria, food is rich, homely and hearty – and beer halls outnumber bars. Armed with nothing but an appetite and your local host, you’ll taste your way through the best of Bavarian heritage. In the medieval city center, you’ll have no trouble finding traditional food and beer at its finest, from the famously festive Hofbräuhaus München, a beer hall built in 1589, to the warm, wood-paneled Zum Dürnbräu – a traditional restaurant just around the corner. Dallmayr, a 300-year-old delicatessen packed with local treats, is perfect for coffee and dessert, while the iconic English Garden is just over a mile away, with rustic cuisine being served up at its Restaurant and Beer Garden.
