I was intrigued by Hofbrauhaus because there was one here in Rosemont, IL but then it closed in 2021?? I don 't know if it was due to Covid or if it just didn 't do too well?? Sadly, I never got a chance to try them out. Anyway, every city and small town seemingly has a famous restaurant with famous local bier. So being in Munchen, we just had to stop by at the legendary Hofbrauhaus!! It was a hot, sunny day, my arms were tired from carrying shopping bags all around town (it 's the best way to see the sites and to get your 10,000 steps) and we just walked in and our server said to, sit wherever you like. She was welcoming, friendly and spoke English, I immediately said, dankeschon, which means thank you very much. Yes indeed, Gerry T is multilingual Yelp peeps!! Anyway, we ordered the original bier to quench our thirst and a plate of crackling pork with crispy skin with cabbage and gravy and a potato ball. I enjoyed it all, maybe because it reminds me of a Filipino meal. I tell you, I 've never eaten so much schweinebauch (pork belly) in my life. So yes, I could easily live in Germany. And did I tell you that they charge for water and sometimes the bier is cheaper than the still water (not here though). So please, do the math and enjoy the local bier. I really enjoyed the German ambiance and you get a sense that many local Munchen residents come here to have a fine meal, drink great bier while catching up. The space is airy, lively, full of natural light and cool art and decorative stuff. It was, all in all, sehr gut (very good)!! Pro tip Tipping is expected in Germany (unlike in France), so expect to tip up to 10% for great service. They will ask you before ringing you up on the handheld device.
