One of the rooms in the Michaeligarten

Restaurant Michaeligarten – Event location, fine cuisine and beer garden by the lake "How do I even begin, how do I even begin?" I've been sitting in front of my laptop for a good ten minutes now, racking my brains for a way to start an article that truly deserves one of my favorite Munich restaurants. Hardly any other restaurant has been a part of my life as long as the Michaeligarten, located by the Ostpark. Not only is it my absolute favorite beer garden in the summer, but it's also been a "rediscovered hotspot" for successful restaurant visits, offering fine Bavarian cuisine and an unparalleled location. But let's start at the beginning.

The Michaeligarten Restaurant – what to expect

The Michaeligarten restaurant, directly adjacent to the park, is divided into the interior, which was completely renovated four years ago and features a modern Bavarian style, the adjoining lakeside terrace, and the beer garden. Each area exudes its own unique charm. And let me be perfectly clear: you won't find a more beautiful place in Munich that combines excellent Bavarian cuisine in the restaurant with idyllic hours spent enjoying delicious beer garden treats. Seriously, if you decide to visit the Michaeligarten (…which I hope you will by the time you finish reading this…), you'll immediately understand what I mean.

The ideal location for dream events

The moment you step into the restaurant, a welcoming atmosphere immediately envelops you. My first glance always falls upon the bright dining area at the front, complete with a bar and serving counter. Right from the start, it's clear: every detail is perfect, and the interior and ambiance impress with a blend of tradition and modernity: beamed ceilings, fresh flowers on the tables, a floor-to-ceiling window front overlooking the terrace, light colors, and tasteful decorations throughout. You won't have to stand and admire the decor for too long, though, as a friendly member of staff will usually approach you right away to help you find a table. And finding one, true to the saying "So many choices, so much to decide!", isn't always easy, because the entire place is simply so cozy. Various cozy rooms and lounges of different sizes, colors, and moods are part of the Michaeligarten. All are inviting, friendly, and bright.

The location is not only ideal for family celebrations of any size and type, but also for a casual drink or a relaxed meal. The Michaeligarten perfectly combines modernity and tradition, as well as "cozy" and "chic" – in its atmosphere, decor, and cuisine. And since even the best party and the most enjoyable afternoon of conversation aren't complete without something substantial to eat, take a look at the menu.

Food, ingredients and offerings

The menu features refined Bavarian classics, given a modern twist, cleverly executed, and always fresh. In addition to weekly specials on the regular menu, there are also daily lunch specials at affordable prices. For me, the Michaeligarten has been a go-to spot for a delicious lunch, a leisurely dinner with friends, and a relaxed chat over coffee and cake. One thing that unites the entire culinary offering at the Michaeligarten is high quality and the finest regional ingredients – from Irschenberg and Chiemgau, through Altötting and to Lake Tegernsee, only the best ingredients are used. Extravagant creations and unique dishes can be found on the menu. And so, in addition to classics like Wiener Schnitzel (veal, €18.50), pork tenderloin medallions (€18.50), or veal shank (€22.50), there are also specials such as whole grilled trout from Lake Tegernsee (€19.50), cubes of beef tenderloin (€22.50), mushroom risotto (€13.50), or – brand new! – roast pork with crackling from straw-fed pigs (€14). This is a breed of pig that is raised on straw in a particularly humane way and for Michaeligarten also serves as a symbol for supporting a kind of trend reversal towards humane pig farming combined with high quality.

Otherwise, the menu includes various soups (from €6.50), appetizers and light dishes (from €12.50), and salads (from €4.50). At lunchtime, the aforementioned daily changing specials are offered as a two- or three-course menu, Monday to Friday until 2:30 pm. Two courses generally start at a reasonable €9.50 (for example, bread dumpling carpaccio with red onions and chive vinaigrette, and stuffed bell pepper with couscous).View online menu).

The Michaeligarten also showcases its expertise in desserts and cakes. All cakes and tarts are homemade, and only the best quality is used. There's an extensive dessert menu, which features a special selection of sophisticated mini-desserts. These are so small that you can easily order and try two different ones. If you prefer a beer to a latte macchiato, you can choose from Löwenbräu and Franziskaner.

A paradise in the heart of Munich.

The Michaeligarten as an event location

One particularly interesting aspect is the Michaeligarten's potential as an event venue. It's hard to imagine a more ideal and flexible location. Why? Different room sizes, a festive atmosphere from A to Z, a stunning location, and a highly flexible team that can make almost anything possible. The picturesque setting and the blend of modern and traditional elements make the Michaeligarten perfect for any occasion. "Impossible" isn't in their vocabulary, and virtually any conceivable event can be accommodated here: birthdays, after-work drinks, parties with friends, weddings, cozy get-togethers, and much more. It doesn't always have to be a large-scale event with 200 people to be the right place at the Michaeligarten. Everyone is welcome who enjoys good food, appreciates nature, or wants to combine all of these elements and celebrate, or simply wants to relax, eat, and unwind.

Also important: Depending on the occasion you'd like to celebrate at Michaeligarten, or the type of event you're hosting, the team will gladly work with you to create a customized menu. The team is equally flexible and attentive to your individual needs, whether it's a dinner with friends or an after-work drink. In every respect, you are the focus here, and your satisfaction is paramount. In my opinion, this is clearly achieved in a restaurant when I don't want to leave immediately after putting down my cutlery, but rather linger, order another drink, and simply enjoy my time there. Thumbs up again for Michaeligarten!.

Personal conclusion

Yes, I confess, my heart beats a little faster at Michaeligarten than at some other restaurants. But even as a "newcomer," you'll quickly notice that everything here is just right: the location – pure nature, yet only a stone's throw from the nearest subway station; the quality of the food – varied, top-notch, and always prepared with premium ingredients; the ambiance: perfect for a quick coffee, a great party with friends, or even a large family celebration.

A stylish dining experience with a comfortable atmosphere, a stunning view, and simply the perfect place for dinner, a slice of cake, or relaxing on the terrace or in the beer garden in spring, summer, and autumn. Simply wonderful! In summer, you can even watch the swans nesting in the grasses by the lake.
