Paulaner am Nockherberg, Beer garden and restaurant in Au-Haidhausen, Munich, Germany
Paulaner am Nockherberg is a beer garden and restaurant in Munich with seating for over 3000 guests beneath chestnut trees. The space is divided into a self-service area and a table-service section where staff bring drinks and meals.
The site was originally a monastery founded in 1634 where monks brewed beer. The location later opened to the public and developed into a popular gathering place for Munich residents and visitors.
The establishment is closely tied to Starkbierfest, held each March, which draws visitors wanting to taste the strong beer that follows a historic recipe. The festival has become an important Munich tradition where people gather to drink, eat, and celebrate together.
The garden works well for visitors with different preferences, as you can choose between self-service and table service. Traditional Bavarian dishes are available in multiple locations throughout the space, depending on how you prefer to eat.
On-site copper kettles in the brewery produce fresh beer that visitors can watch being made. This direct production allows the garden to serve freshly brewed beer daily and gives guests a rare glimpse into how the drink comes together.
