The beer gardens in Munich have a long tradition and are a fundamental part of the gastronomic culture of the city of Munich . The beer gardens date back to the 16th century, when beer only between late September and late April was brewed . Beer gardens were often created under the tree plantings laid out to cool the brewery cellars.
Traditionally, guests are allowed to consume food they have brought with them, which was confirmed today in the Beer Garden Ordinance of 1999. However, the drinks must always be purchased from the beer garden operator. As a result, Munich beer gardens often have separate areas for food brought along or food from self-service counters and for catering with waiter service.
Beer gardens are an integral part of social life in the Bavarian capital. Most operators "sell" regular get-togethers that are regularly used by groups of friends in the summer months. However, for reasons of market law, the majority of the seats are available for general use. In terms of equipment, the beer set , a table-bench combination, is typical. Live bands play regularly in many beer gardens.
At the Oktoberfest there are additional beer gardens of this size, which in turn belong to the festival tents .
