Café Glyptothek - sorry, cash only — Restaurant in Munich

We were looking for somewhere to grab a quick lunch on a Sunday in Munich when everything was closed. We'd just visited a nearby museum so thought this would be ideal.

Turned out there was a one euro per person charge just to enter the cafe. There were few other options around, so we paid it. Then we were told we had to pay three euros for a mandatory bag locker. When we finally got into the cafe, we found it only took cash, so we only had enough (having also paid our various fees in our remaining cash) to buy one tiny toastie between three of us...it's 2023, get a...

Versteckt in den Gewölben des Museums. Nur durch Überqueren der steilen Stufen und des eisernen Eingangs erreichbar und dann eine goldene 1-Euro-Münze entdecken. Einmal drinnen finden Sie eines der kleinsten, aber besten Cafés in München. Der Kaffee, Kuchen / Gebäck und Sandwiches / Panini sind die besten. Mehr als einen zusätzlichen Euro wert für die Zufriedenheit, die Sie erhalten. P.S. Aufgrund von Renovierungsarbeiten ist dieses großartige Café jetzt über die Straße in Richtung Staatliche Antikensammlungen Museum gezogen, wo Sie auch einige große Antiquitäten aus Griechenland, Rom und Etrurien sehen können.

Hidden away in the vaults of the museum. Only accessible by traversing the steep steps and iron entrance and then discovering a special golden 1-euro coin. Once inside you will find one of the smallest, yet greatest cafes in Munich. The coffee, cakes/pastries and sandwiches/paninis are the very best. More than worth an extra euro for the satisfaction you get. P.S. Due to refurbishment, this great café has now moved across the road to the Staatliche Antikensammlungen Museum, where you can also view some great antiquities from Greece, Rome and Etruria. If you like then please 👍..

A small cosy cafe inside the Glyptothek. Very fresh tasty pastries and paninis with good coffee. One tip (not sure if that applies always or if it is only due to the COVID period), that the cafe takes only cash and no cards. Last but not least the personnel are really friendly and try to serve everyone as fast as possible to...
