Travel back into the Golden Age at Mauro’s Negroni Club



Tucked away in a side street of „Haidhausen“, the french quarter of Munich, the entrance of Mauro’s Negroni Club does not draw as much attention as the inside deserves. Once you step inside, you get the feeling of being thrown back a couple of decades.
The classic Art Deco setting would be suitable for a remake of Robert de Niro’s bar scene from Goodfellas or Ernest Hemingway’s most „creative“ hours – still, this is in the middle of Bavaria, 50 miles away from the Alps.
Mauro, the owner, is a bartender with heart and soul, which reflects in the perfection and attention to the detail of his first bar as a solo owner. He has been bartending for over 20 creative years, making him arguably one of the best of his profession in Germany.

The cocktail variety at MNC includes anything from a wide variety of Martinis and Negronis, to Vintage Cocktails and the contemporary Cuisine Style Cocktails. However, if you take a seat in this establishment, your first drink ordered should be something short and strong – we recommend a Negroni, Mauro’s favourite. For the hungry ones among us, Mauro offers a small but selected menu, categorized International with an Italian touch.

The bar is located approximately 7 minutes from the hotel by cab, within walking distance of the Gasteig, home of the Munich Philharmonics. Therefore our recommendation for a classy evening: Artistic masterpieces by Christian Thielemann and his orchestra followed by liquid masterpieces by Mauro and his team. The Concierge Team will be glad to help you with tickets as well as a seat reservation.
