Munich – The city is offering to award a prize for the most beautiful pub gardens in Munich *. This emerges from an answer to a request from the CSU frat group.

“In some cases, Munich’s gastronomy outperforms each other in terms of design and makes our city even more charming.”
Pavement gardens in Munich: Parking spaces for restaurants have been eliminated
As reported, in order to compensate for the missing guest seats due to Corona *, the catering industry was given the opportunity to use parking spaces and possible lateral expansions of the areas beyond the building boundary as extended temporary bar areas.
The resulting pavilion gardens met with a very good response from restaurateurs and guests. In the meantime, the city council had decided to allow the pub gardens and the expansion of the open bar areas every year between April and October, most recently the Greens and the SPD had also requested that this time be extended this year to and including November as an exception.
Pub gardens: Munich doesn’t want to pay for competition
An award for the ten most beautiful pub gardens is currently simply not possible, writes the presentation by Clemens Baumgärtner (CSU). According to research by the administration, the cost of holding a competition would be around 40,000 euros plus prize money for the catering companies. “At the moment, the Department for Labor and Economics cannot make these funds available due to the current budget situation.”
