Pubs
Arguably the most iconic pub in Munich for good reason. Centrally located, tons of drink options, surprisingly good food and comprehensive menu, and lots of live events including karaoke on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Fills up fast so not a pl...
Kennedys München
Probably the second most popular pub in munich. They also have karaoke and other events. Also fills up fast but I find it's a bit more claustrophobic than kennedy's. Overall still a place to go for a good time.
Kilians - Irish Pub
Casual bars
One of my absolute favorite bars. Chill vibes, hip hop/old-school music, reasonably priced drinks and just a cool atmosphere. Located in the university area so lots of students but people of all ages here.

Vertigo Bar, München
Yes it's a hotel bar and technically a chain, but they have amazing drinks, the atmosphere is top notch and non-pretentiously fancy/cosy and sophisticated, it's just a really special place I always enjoy going to. And you don't have to be staying at ...
The Highball Bar at Munich Central Station
Yes it's a restaurant with great tacos but I would argue the drinks are just as good especially if you like specialty cocktails that aren't as common to find. The atmosphere is also really nice and they used to do free tequila shots for everyone at t...
