The sun is shining, the birds are singing – which means its time to Spritz up your life. And oh yes, do we have the perfect list of Munich Aperol spots for you waiting below.
Munich Aperol Spots At a Glance
Aperol And Spritz Spots
Frau Bartels
Only a quick meander from the Fraunhoferstr. Ubahn station, it would be rude not to really. This Glockenbach favourite is a chic minimalist slice of paradise- and if Aperol itself is not your thing this is the Spritz spot for you.
Frau Bartels has a reputation for their delicious home-made syrups (one of our fave combinations is orange, cardamom and cinnamon) which they will spritz up to your heart’s desire. Frau Bartles offers outdoor seating for all your people watching (no reservations for outside) – but if you can’t snag a table outdoors, it’s the perfect place to park up at the bar.
Our go-to drink: Frühlings Spritz (Mint, lime & camomile flower syrup)
Cafe Crönlein
If you’re after a Spritz spot in the ‘if you know you know’ category – this little cafe in Nockherberg is a well kept local secret. In the day people walk right past this unassuming stone cornice, but at night the game is given away by fairy lights lining its patio and trees.
Romantic, witchy, and the perfect spot to bask in the last few golden hours of the day, Crönlein is your go to spot for a summery drop – think Aperol Spritz, Rosé, and a couple of bespoke signature Spritzes.
Our go-to drink: Mondino Spritz
Fraulein Grüneis
If you’re looking to escape the masses swarming through the Englischer garten, consider this cheeky Fraulein your new best friend. Tucked away near the entrance by Nationalmuseum, this is the perfect pit stop before your summer stroll.
Good if you’re after an ice cream or a snack, great if you’re after a Spritz – this central, leafy hideaway is the perfect spot to refresh yourself and peep the surfers on the Eisbach.
Our go-to drink: Grüneis Sprizz
Transit Rooftop Bar
Transit is an amalgamation of containers, colour, good views, and good vibes – located in the Werksviertel near Ostbahnhof, Transit is the perfect spot to kick off your weekend.
Here you’ll find delicious drinks on tap, themed seating areas and DJs spinning some chilled out tunes. With an extensive menu and plenty of space, Transit is a great place to meet friends of if you’re looking to head out with a larger group.
It is a popular spot for good reason, pro tip: make a reservation if there are a few of you heading out.
Our go-to drink: A classic Aperol Spritz paired with a summer sundowner is always our plan here
Café Paulo e Pini
A little slice of Italian summer awaits in Gärtnerplatzviertel at Café Paulo e Pini. This location is super cute – with its retro outfitting and neighbourhood charm, it’s easy to sit down and feel like you’re right at home.
Think classic Italiana with a quality array of street food, quality espresso, and tasty chalkboard specials. If you are after a well-balanced, classic spritz or a carafe (or two) of wine – look no further than this beloved neighbourhood spot.
Our go-to drink: Pini Sprizz (Campari, Tonic, Prosecco)
Bar Centrale
Bar Centrale oozes old school, old world Italy with its self proclaimed moniker of ‘more Italian the Italy’. This gem is smack bang in the middle of town (around the corner from Hofbräuhaus München), stays open late, and is the perfect place to watch the world go by.
Cosy and intimate with a small menu that rotates daily, Bar Centrale is the perfect place to pay homage to the origin of the Spritz and enjoy the summer sun.
Our go-to drink: Lavendel Spritz (prosecco, homemade lavender syrup, lime)
Lost Weekend
If you want to pick up a page-turner along with your Spritz, look no further than Lost Weekend. With rotating artists and live music to boot, this cafe/bookstore/gallery space is beloved by students and creatives of Munich alike.
This quirky, shared space located right by the Ludwig-Maximilian University is vegan-friendly, with a consistently chilled crowd, and is the perfect stop for a spritz or two.
Our go-to drink: Hibiscus Spritz (Hibiscus and Orange Blossom liqueur, prosecco, mint, citrus)
Loretta Bar
Want something a little more upmarket with an inventive cocktail menu? You’ll quickly fall in love with Loretta Bar. Hiding in the outskirts of the old town, Loretta is a trendy hotspot for breakfast and coffee during the day, but we’d also recommend waiting until they whip out their cocktail menu after 6pm.
We love Loretta for a date night – its mood lighting and long hours will have you losing track of time and tastebuds as you take advantage of the excellent knowledge of its bar staff
Our go-to drink: Basil Spritz
Botanista Cafe Club
An oasis of calm and greenery, Botanista Cafe Club sources all of its offerings locally, and prides itself on being refined-sugar free without compromising on flavour.
Located in the Glockenbachviertel, it’s the perfect place to grab a healthy (and delicious) bite and enjoy a refreshing Spritz that’s not overloaded with sugary syrup.
Botanista is also low key a great spot for a photo opp as you sip your spritz – inside you’ll find warm lighting, hanging chairs and swings to perch on, outside you’ll find a tropical calm among palm trees and fairy lights. A real passion project, we’d highly recommend taking a moment to Spritz n chill here.
Our go-to drink: Ginger and Lime Spritz
Junge Römer
Come for the food menu (the homemade pasta and pinsa are both to die for), stay for the spritzes – the menu of Junge Römer is an homage to Rome – with several delicious offerings to tickle your fancy.
Only a short stroll from the north end of Alter-Südfriedhof in the Glockenbachviertel, this is the perfect spot for a bite and a traditional leaning spritz.
You’ll love the gorgeous emerald interior and extensive menu – this would be our top spot if you’re looking for a feed alongside you’re spritz – we guarantee you’ll be sticking around here longer than a pro-secco.
Our go-to drink: Limoncello Spritz
Bravo Bar
Classic bistro feels – Bravo is the place to get your coffee and cornetti in the morning and come back for a cheeky aperitivo in the evening.
This spot is all about counter culture – with its long open bar spaces lit by dreamy sunshine and a constantly bustling crowd that rotates throughout the day, Bravo bar captures all the hubbub of Little Italy.
Only a quick step away from U Fraunhoferstrasse, make sure to pop in on your way home as it the crowd transforms from day to night for a reasonably priced tipple or two.
Our go-to drink: Campari Orange
Mary’s Coffee Club
All day breakfast say what?! If you like your spritz with a side of brunch, you’ll enjoy Mary’s Coffee Club. With the OG located in Maxvorstadt and a new location in Nymphenburg – you have a fair few directions to choose from.
The brunch menu is relaxed, focusing on a few key quality ingredients, and the spritzes are fresh and reflective of this ethos.
Mary’s is a sea of calm – peaceful courtyard, friendly staff, and consistently delicious food – spritz up your next trip – we’d recommend heading for a weekend brunch with the gals.
Our go-to drink: Basil Spritz (prosecco, basil, ginger, lime)
Aperol Spritzeria at Eataly
We can’t write a list about Spritzing without paying tribute to Aperol 1919 Spritzeria at Eataly. Capturing the zeitgeist of the roaring twenties and the origin of our fave summer liqueur, you’ll find it hard to walk past this sparkling orange facade.
Located within Eataly (2 minute walk from the Viktualienmarkt), this bar is the perfect place to reward yourself after hard work stocking up on some Mediterranean goodies and snacks.
Our go-to drink: Aperol Spritz (of course)
Aperol Tree And Tower Spots
Daddee Blu
One of our favourite new cafes is not just amazing because of all the puppies readily there to pet, but the combo of awesome eats, friendly doggos and their Aperol tree!
Located right off of Müllerstrasse, this Daddee cool cafe offers a cozy outdoor seating area and an Aperol spritz tree for 30€ for 4 Aperols (including snacks).
Our go-to drink: The Aperol spritz tree (and maybe a signature Daddee Blu cocktail to follow)
Frau Im Mond
If you’re looking to impress on location – look no further than Frau im Mond on the rooftop of the Deutsches Museum.
Even sweeter than the panoramic views over the Isar is the stunning Gardenspritz tower – an elaborate construction of aperol. For 125 EUR you get 12 Aperols – working out to about 10 EUR a glass – absolute barg for the bevs and the location.
Our go-to drink: Gardenspritz Aperol Tower
Kleiner Kranich
Known as being the cool and cozy after work spot in Maxvorstadt, Kleiner Kranich is always a great idea for a little wine and brotzeit. However, in summer, it’s pretty ace also for its outside seating and 25€ Aperol spritz tree.
And of course, we’d always recommend you pair your aperol tree with one of their signature Flammkuchens (only 9€ and a great little sharing snack).
Our go-to drink: The classic Aperol spritz tree of course
Herzog Bar
Tucked away in the inner courtyard of the Mini Pavillion by U Karlsplatz, you’ll find one of Munich’s best kept secrets – Herzog bar.
This summer they’re treating guests to the Aperitivo Tree – with 12 signature spritzes for 75 EUR, or 12 of their custom creatively mixed variations for 110 EUR – this is a showstopper you won’t forget.
Our go-to drink: Aperitivo Baum
Kubaschewski
For a little contemporary bad n bougie, head to Kubaschewski.
Our favourite stop for a diverse selection of sparkling wines, this summer they’re offering the ‘Dreierlei Spritz Varianten’ – your choice of 3 of their bespoke summer spritzes.
We’d recommend the Kuba Sommer Spritz with vermouth, vanilla and lime.
Our go-to drink: Dreierlei Spritz Varianten
Brezenreiter
Just off Marienplatz you’ll find Brezenreiter – the living room of Munich with a bright sunny terrace.
In an absolute fit of madness they’re offering the Aperol tower while the days stretch out – a colossal tapped tower full to the brim of aperol spritz for your table.
This is the perfect spot to stop for a pick me up with your friends or a date.
Our go-to drink: Aperol Tower(of course)
