A place of encounter – top quality in a convivial ambience.
Josefa is a place where people from all over the world come together. The line between café and bar often feels blurred here, as Josefa is a place to enjoy home comforts, yet the vibe is definitely convivial. This is somewhere for the whole city to meet, a place for Munich locals, tourists and Platzl hotel guests alike, where you can taste the quality and enjoy life to the fullest. And then there is the Josefa Karree outdoor bar, the ideal place to while away a couple of sunny hours.

Food and Drink
As a well-established feature of Munich life, we serve up local specialities, fine wines, our very own coffee roasts and unique spirits.

Our Team
All of the Josefa staff are part of the Platzl family and as such are easy to recognise by their friendly air and deep passion for food and drink.
With their warmth and hospitality, Nathalie, the host, and her team make Josefa what it is – a place for the whole city to come together, a place for Munich locals, tourists and hotel guests alike, a place where you can taste the quality and enjoy life to the fullest.

History
For many years, the Josefa bar in the Platzl Hotel lobby was a much-loved fixture for our guests. However, the bar has now moved out, taking the opportunity to reinvent itself. While the lobby is being expanded, Josefa is giving the former national costume shop a new lease of life – with passion, emotion and plenty of fresh ideas. What’s more, there is now an outdoor bar in the form of the Josefa Karree, which has replaced the Platzl Karree.

Artisan charm in a relaxed, stylish setting
When it comes to ambience, we like to play with a variety of influences. Once again, the design originates from the skilful interior designers at DREIMETA. Glazed tiles, pottery lampshades and dark oak wood creates a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere. The floral paintings on the façade symbolise the zest for life and upbeat vibe typical of the “new” Josefa.
