Lively Schwabing brunch hub with friendly service, creative comfort-food twists, and long queues; value and portion sizes divide opinion.
Why it gets a B for overall quality
Café Buur delivers solid brunch execution with warm, attentive service and appealing modern design that justify its popularity in Schwabing. However, variable food quality—standout menemen and bao alongside inconsistent Eggs Benedict— and crowded conditions prevent grade A territory. The experience suits casual brunch seekers who value atmosphere and friendly staff over flawless consistency.
Restaurant Summary
Queues form early in Schwabing for this lively brunch spot where servers are often warm and welcoming and the vibe skews trendy and upbeat. One diner summed it up: "worth the wait, with friendly faces and bright flavors." Expect crowds and close tables. The cooking leans comfort food reimagined rather than fancy—think menemen with sucuk, chicken bao buns, and a hulking egg drop sandwich. Most plates deliver satisfying flavor, though a few classics like Eggs Benedict draw complaints about portion size and hollandaise. It suits diners who enjoy playful twists more than strict traditionalists. Families do fine here when staff can create space—one weekday brunch even made room for a stroller away from speakers. Kids are likely to enjoy pancakes and simple egg dishes, though the room gets crowded and there is only a QR menu. Visit earlier for easier seating with little ones.
