Nil Bar

About this place Nil Bar

Nil Bar occupies a corner position on Hans-Sachs-Straße — the street at the heart of Munich's Glockenbachviertel gay district — with a terrace that fills on warm evenings with a cross-section of the neighbourhood's LGBTQ+ community. The bar is the definition of inclusive: gay men, lesbians, trans people, queers of all descriptions, their friends and neighbours all use Nil as their neighbourhood local. The format is straightforward: good beers, a solid cocktail list, a kitchen that runs food service, and a terrace that is genuinely one of the better outdoor drinking spaces in this part of Munich. The Hans-Sachs-Straße location puts Nil at the centre of a walking circuit that includes most of the Glockenbachviertel's other gay venues — the Deutsche Eiche is steps away, Marienplatz is 10 minutes on foot. For visitors staying in Munich who want to understand the gay neighbourhood's social fabric, Nil is the bar to start from.
