Located right next to the Viktualienmarkt, this spot is famous for its fried dough, but locals know the apple strudel is equally elite. It is rustic, unpretentious, and often served warm straight from the kitchen, capturing the essence of old-world Munich.

This restaurant balances 1901 tradition with modern organic standards. Their strudel is known for a perfectly spiced cinnamon-apple filling that isn't overly sweet, served in a cozy, wood-paneled environment that feels like a warm hug.

While some call it a tourist trap due to the prices, the strudel remains a high-quality staple. The real draw is the 5th-floor view directly overlooking the New Town Hall's Glockenspiel performance, providing the most iconic backdrop in the city.

Formerly known as Weisses Bräuhaus, this historic brewery offers a strudel that is as robust as its wheat beer. It’s a 'heavyweight' version of the dish—thick crust, chunky apples, and meant to be shared after a liter of Aventinus.
