The idea would be as follows: You find a cycling partner in crime and we suggest three different routes that will keep you happy with food and drink in between. From a solid meal to a good selection of drinks and dessert, everything is included. We wish you happy cycling!

Tour 1: From Glockenbach to Schwabing (approx. 4 km easy)

Restaurant

Diese Gut

Pestralozzistraße 9

Wherever your journey begins in Munich, the first stop on your little culinary journey is at Diese Gut in Glockenbach. There you can get köfte, falafel or mezze to go and sit down a few meters away on Stephansplatz. Vegans and vegetarians will feel particularly at home at Diese Gut. The majority of the dishes here are made entirely without animal products. The falafel creations are vegan and the small starters - also known as mezze - also sound temptingly animal-free. Hummus, babaganoush, kisir and shaksuska are always a good idea, are great for sharing and are usually eaten very quickly. But don't fill your belly too much, because the journey goes on - and you still need some room in your belly.

Café

Amalienstraße 91
80799 /80463 München

Get on your bike and continue via Viktualienmarkt and Odeonsplatz to Maxvorstadt. There, please stop at Amalienstraße 91 at iceDate, the vegan ice cream parlor. Because, of course, you can't do without dessert on a culinary bike tour like this! At iceDate, you can get vegan organic ice cream sweetened with dates. Hence the name "Date", because dates and stuff, you get the idea. The ice cream is also gluten-free and contains no additives. The Akademie der Bildenden Künste is just around the corner if you want to celebrate eating ice cream on a green space.

Bar

Salon Irkutsk

Isabellastraße 4

By now, you should be well fortified, because the last stop is going to be a fun one. Look forward to the bar garden of Salon Irkutsk on Isabellastraße in Schwabing. Owner Daniel will not only put you in a good mood at your last stop, but also provide you with first-class drinks. It's also THE place to go for vermouth. But watch out: You still have to cycle home, so keep an eye on your level or simply leave your bike at home.

Tour 2: From Westend via the Schlachthofviertel to Obergiesing (approx. 6 km easy)

Restaurant

Pizzesco

Rosenheimer Str. 12
81669 München

This tour takes you through three city districts - the starting point is in the Westend at Pizzesco Sprint. If you're cycling, you need a good source of energy, so there's pizza. Word of Pizzesco's thin and juicy pizzas has certainly gotten around. Kamut wheat or spelt flour is used for the gluten-free pizzas. Gluten-free and authentic Italian are therefore not a contradiction in terms at Pizzesco! So treat yourself to a classic or one of the more unusual varieties. We can highly recommend the potato carpaccio, for example. You can then find a cozy spot on the Theresienwiese to enjoy your meal.

Bierkiste

Zenettistraße 43
80337 München

Pizza is often accompanied by... Beer! That's why we're off to the Schlachthofviertel next to Bierkiste. Also known as a beer paradise, that's how well equipped the drinks market is. The Bierkiste also doubles up as a drinking hall or after-work bar and has a small pub garden. So if you want to linger a while before moving on, settle down - but don't forget that you'll need some stamina for the next two stops.

Bar

Alte Utting

Lagerhausstraße 15
81371 München

Back on the bike with you, it's a few streets further on. The penultimate stop on the tour is Alte Utting. You can grab a crepe on the boat at the Lagerhausbrücke and fortify yourself for the grand finale. And who knows - maybe there will be a bit of sunset romance, which can be enjoyed particularly well high up.

Bar

Crönlein

Am Nockherberg 8
81541 München

Your stomach should be well filled, because now it's a few kilometers along the Isar and then even upwards. The Nockherberg has to be climbed! But only halfway up, because then Café Crönlein awaits you. You can end the evening with really good drinks in the former toilet block. It's best to walk up the steps into Krönleinpark and settle down on a bench with a good Spritz or the Crönlein specialty Pastis. Cheers, the tour is now complete. If you don't want to stop for a drink, you should leave your bike at home.

Tour 3: From Isarvorstadt via Haidhausen to Lehel (approx. 3.5km easy)

Restaurant

Chi Thu

Morassistraße 2
80469 München

This journey starts in Vietnam, at least in culinary terms, because it starts at Chi Thu in the Isarvorstadt district. Treat yourself to banh bao, banh mi or a round of summer rolls. If you can't decide, "sharing is caring" definitely applies here, so you can enjoy everything.

Restaurant

Preysinggarten

Preysingstraße 69
81667 München

Once you've fortified yourself, get back on your bike, because now it's off to the Franzosenviertel! One of the most beautiful spots in Haidhausen is definitely Preysingstraße and that's exactly where the second stop awaits you. In the Preysinggarten, you can stock up on a Spezi, coffee or various types of Spritz. Take a break on one of the benches and admire the little houses around you.

Store

Fräulein Grüneis

Lerchenfeldstraße 1a
80538 München

The last few kilometers take you to the English Garden, after all, you still need a dessert. You can pick one up at the Fräulein Grüneis kiosk. In the summer months, you can get ice cream here and the cake selection is very stable all year round. Have you made up your mind? Then make your way to the Eisbachwelle and watch the others doing sports. You've already reached your destination.
