Augustiner an der Frauenkirche

About

Augustiner an der Frauenkirche transports guests from Bavaria to Saxony in a single bite of tradition and flavor. Housed in the historic building that dates back to 1328, the restaurant offers a warm, family‑friendly atmosphere where locals and tourists alike can mingle over freshly tapped Augustiner beer and a menu that marries Bavarian classics with regional Saxon specialties. The dining experience is further enhanced by a unique wood‑fired barrel beer service – the famed "Ozapft is" ritual that draws beer lovers from far and wide. Patrons can enjoy their brew either in the airy outdoor biergarten overlooking the iconic Frauenkirche, inside the elegant two‑story gaststube, or within the atmospheric Kellergewölbe that showcases the visible beer barrels and intimate cellar ambiance. Whether you’re looking for a casual lunch, a hearty dinner, or a venue for a celebratory event, Augustiner offers a complete service with an open kitchen, a well‑curated menu featuring dishes like Bavarian Brezn, Wiener Schnitzel, and Sächsischer Gurkensalat, and an impressive selection of Augustiner’s own craft beers and wines. Breakfast and lunch are served from 11:00 to 22:30, with a dedicated kitchen opening until 23:30 for drinks. Reservations are recommended for dinner and special occasions but are not mandatory for regular dining. (Note: “Goldfrisch” is a hidden gem but we focus on the main dining experience.)
