Viktualienmarkt

Wander Viktualienmarkt, Munich's beloved open-air food market beside Marienplatz. Sample cheeses, fresh produce and local specialities from the stalls, then settle in for a drink under the chestnut trees.

📖

Full description

Viktualienmarkt is a daily open-air food market in Munich's Altstadt, a short walk from Marienplatz. Permanent stalls sell fresh produce, cheese, meat, flowers and prepared food, and the surrounding area includes a beer garden and a coffee roastery.

It draws both locals shopping for ingredients and visitors grazing for lunch, and the compact layout makes it easy to cover in about an hour. Stalls open from 8:00 and generally close around 20:00 on weekdays, so it suits morning shopping as well as an early-evening drink.
