Cafe Gans am Wasser - München

Perfect setting on a tiny lake nestled in West Park for this most magical beer garden. Informal, whimsical, almost hippy vibe with an authentic organic ‘Waldorf Steiner’ construction style. Shabby chic. Delicious vegetarian food as well as usual fare.

Called a café, but during summer time it is much more a beer garden. And what a location, directly on the bank of a small lake as the German name of the café suggests. If you stay long enough into the night, the candles will come out, and you first hear and then see the swarms of ducks (not geese as the German word gans in the restaurant name suggests) landing on the water just opposite your table. This truly is a cosy place, and you might well combine the visit with a walk through lovely Westpark. It offers BBQ food, and Seitan vegetable Kebap as a specialty, with hummus and/or feta delicious. Seating arrangements vary from beergarden style benches, to sofas on the beach, platforms and pergola covered niches. You may have to wait a while in good weather. But it is worth it.

Sonntag, Sonne, Musik. Unglaublich gemütlich und entspannt. Fast ungewöhnlich für München. Bunte orientalische Schirme und Deko. Witzige Sitzgelegenheiten ob in der Sonne oder unter Bäume. Nette Stände für Essen und Trinken. Nettes Treiben lassen am Wasser. Hat einen Hauch Berlin.

Wer gerne spazieren geht, sollte sich das nächste Mal etwas Geld mitnehmen, und sich ein Getränk oder ein Eis bei Gans am Wasser zu gönnen. Die Pommes sind auch sehr zu empfehlen! Viel Spass :)
