A Bavarian Classic at the Heart of Munich
Andechser am Dom
Just steps away from Munich’s iconic Frauenkirche, Andechser am Dom is more than just a restaurant – it’s a living piece of Bavarian tradition. Operated by the Benedictine monks of the Andechs Monastery, this beloved tavern brings centuries of brewing heritage right into the city center.
The roots of Andechs beer date back to the 15th century, when the monks began brewing according to time-honored monastic principles and the Reinheitsgebot, Bavaria’s Purity Law of 1516. Each sip of their beer carries the legacy of generations of craftsmanship, made with pure spring water, local hops, and dedication to quality.
Andechser am Dom was established to offer Munich locals and visitors alike a place to enjoy authentic monastery beer and traditional Bavarian cuisine—right in the shadow of the cathedral. The warm wood-paneled dining rooms, hearty specialties like Schweinshaxe and Obatzda, and, of course, the famous Andechser Doppelbock Dunkel, make this a favorite gathering place year-round.
Whether you’re looking for a cozy lunch, a festive dinner, or a true taste of Bavaria, Andechs am Dom welcomes you with open arms and freshly tapped beer—monastery brewed, Munich enjoyed.
