The 1 AM Problem
The U-Bahn has stopped. Taxis are expensive.
You want one more drink, but where can you go that doesn't mean a €50 taxi ride home for one of you?
The solution: Meet near a major night bus (Nachtlinie) hub.
1. The Glockenbachviertel Core
Near Müllerstraße / Sendlinger Tor
- The vibe: The heart of Munich's nightlife. Countless bars, from cozy pubs to chic cocktail spots, are open late.
- Why it's a great midway: Sendlinger Tor and the surrounding area is a major nexus for night buses. It offers the best chance for everyone to have a relatively simple journey home.
- Late-night snack potential: Excellent. You're never far from a döner or pizza slice.
2. The Cult Factory (Kultfabrik) & Werksviertel-Mitte
At Ostbahnhof
- The vibe: Gritty, industrial, and full of clubs and alternative bars. This is where you go to dance until the sun comes up.
- Why it's a great midway: Ostbahnhof is another huge hub for S-Bahn and night buses, especially for anyone living in the eastern districts.
- Best for: A proper night out, not just a quiet last drink.
3. Schwabing's Quieter Corners
Around Münchner Freiheit
- The vibe: More relaxed than Glockenbach, with classic bars and pubs that have been around forever.
- Why it's a great midway: Münchner Freiheit is the key night bus hub for the northern parts of the city. A lifesaver if you live up near Freimann or beyond.
- Best for: A final, civilized beer with good conversation.
Pro-Tip: Plan with Night Buses in Mind
Before you pick a spot, check the MVG app for night bus routes. Finding a bar that's a short walk from both of your bus lines is the ultimate late-night win.
Or just let midway@ do the thinking for you. Even at 2 AM.
