مطعم Deutsche Eiche (Bar &

Deutsche Eiche, a 19th‑century inn on Reichenbachstraße, has been Munich’s gay hangout since the 1970s, complete with a Bavarian kitchen, bar, hotel and sauna. The building sits in the Gärtnerplatz/Glockenbach quarter, a stone’s throw from the bustling Müllerstraße scene. Film‑maker Rainer Werner Fassbinder was a regular in its early days, and the place still carries that old‑school queer vibe. Downstairs the restaurant serves the usual Bavarian fare—schnitzel, pretzels, a decent weisswurst—while the bar keeps a steady flow of locals and visitors. Above, a gay hotel occupies the rear floors and a men’s sauna runs in the back, all under the same roof. Doors open at 09:00, so you can grab breakfast, linger for lunch or stay for a late dinner. The kitchen shuts around 01:00 on weekdays and 02:00 on weekends; prices sit comfortably in the mid‑range bracket. The crowd is predominantly gay, but the restaurant welcomes anyone. When you’re done, the bars along Müllerstraße and Hans‑Sachs‑Straße are just a short walk away, making Deutsche Eiche a convenient starting point for a night out in Munich’s queer district.
