Three hours, six stops and a full stomach. A small-group walk through the old town — Bavarian breakfast, cheese straight off the market counter, honey wine, and dessert in a historic beer hall.
Munich's best eating happens in places that look closed, don't have menus in English, and are three streets off the route every guidebook prints. This walk goes to six of them in three hours, with someone who eats there anyway.
Small enough to fit around one table, ask questions, and actually talk to the other guests. No flags, no headsets, no coach.
This replaces a meal rather than teasing one. Breakfast, a shared platter, warm Leberkäse, two beers, honey wine and dessert.
Local Table is one person, not a franchise. Book here and your money goes to the tour instead of a booking platform's commission.
Exactly what lands on the table shifts a little with the season and the day — here's what a typical walk looks like.
On the 10:00 walks: one Weißwurst and one pretzel each, with sweet mustard — eaten the way Munich insists on, before the noon bells.
On the afternoon walks, grilled sausages and sauerkraut take the place of breakfast — the same table, a heavier plate.
Cut warm at the counter and eaten standing up under the maypole. Half a portion each, and the most Munich thing you'll do all day.
A shared board built at the market stalls from whatever the traders are proudest of that morning.
Two small beers across the walk, plus a glass of honey wine at the market — older than beer in Bavaria and the point where the group loosens up.
A shredded, caramelised pancake named after an emperor, shared at the last stop while nobody wants to get up.
You start at the Isar Gate and finish three hours later over dessert and a wheat beer, having walked about two kilometres through the old town. Where exactly we eat is part of the tour — that's what you're paying me to know.
We meet under the last of Munich's medieval city gates. Easy to find, four minutes from Marienplatz, and where the walk starts and ends.
Sitting down to a proper Bavarian breakfast, and the local rule that white sausages must be eaten before the noon bells.
Munich's food market since 1807. A shared platter assembled from the stalls, plus the glass of honey wine.
Warm Leberkäse cut fresh — the thing half of Munich eats standing up on the way somewhere else.
The main square, the town hall, and the stories that make the rest of the city make sense.
The long finish: dessert, the second beer, and the part where nobody wants to get up.
Vegetarians are well catered for — tell me when you book and every stop gets a version that works. Vegans, honestly: this isn't the tour for you, and I'd rather say so than take your money.
Guests under 16 get soft drinks instead of the beer and honey wine.
Not included: bottled water, transport, and tips.
★★★★★The group was not very big and we could engage with other guests easily. We've learned so much about Munich history alongside trying the local dishes. Special thanks to our guide, who was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable!

Live availability comes from Bókun, the booking system this tour runs on. Loading the calendar connects your browser to bokun.io and lets them set their own cookies.
Rather not? Email hello@local-table.de and I'll book you in by hand.
Pick your date and departure time at checkout. You can book a single place — but a walk only runs with at least two guests, so a solo booking isn't guaranteed to go ahead. If we don't reach two, I'll tell you in good time and offer another date or refund you in full. Free cancellation up to 48 hours before the start; after that the tables and food are already committed, though you're welcome to send someone in your place.
Private tours from €445. Your own group, your own date — families, friends, company teams, birthdays. Also for Oktoberfest dates. Write to hello@local-table.de and I'll come back with a quote.
Enough to replace a meal. A sausage and pretzel each, a shared platter, half a Leberkäse each, and a dessert — plus two beers and a honey wine. Most guests skip their next meal. Come hungry.
At the Isar Gate, Tal 50, on the side opposite Hotel Torbräu. It's four minutes from Marienplatz by S-Bahn. I'll be there ten minutes early holding a blue umbrella, and you'll get a photo of the exact spot with your confirmation.
Around two kilometres over three hours, all flat, all in the old town. We're sitting down at most of the stops.
Vegetarian works well — tell me when you book and every stop gets a version for you. Vegan doesn't: three of the six stops are built around meat or cheese and I'd rather be honest than sell you a tour of side dishes.
Yes — €79 for ages 1 to 15, and they get soft drinks in place of the beer and honey wine. Bear in mind several stops are pubs and market stalls, and the pace suits older children better than toddlers.
Say so at booking and everything alcoholic is swapped for a soft drink at no extra cost. Nobody is going to make a thing of it.
The tour runs. Most of it is indoors, and Munich has weather most of the year. Bring a jacket.
Not currently — a few of the stops have steps and narrow doorways. Pushchairs are fine, and service animals are welcome. If you have specific access needs, email me before booking and I'll tell you honestly whether it works.
Call the number in your confirmation. The group leaves on time, but I can usually bring you in at the second stop. Arriving after that isn't workable, and no refund is due.
English by default. German on request — say so when you book, and if the group is mixed I'll run it in both.
Yes. Private tours start at €445 for the group — families, friends, company teams, birthdays, and Oktoberfest dates. Email me with your date and group size and I'll come back with a quote.
