Dallmayr Bistro

2 $$$$

Gate-side in Terminal 2, this is Lufthansa-land’s “nice” coffee stop

Dallmayr Bistro in Terminal 2 sits in Lufthansa territory and prices match that: think €3+ for an espresso and €4–6 for pastries. It trades on the famous Munich Dallmayr delicatessen brand, so it feels more polished than Starbucks or the generic bakery counters scattered around T2. Seating is limited bar-style, so plan on a quick stop rather than a long sit-down session before boarding.

You’ll find the usual Dallmayr coffee lineup: espresso, cappuccino, and latte using their house beans, plus a rotation of cakes, tarts, and croissants in the €3–7 range. There are small sandwiches and simple cold snacks, but nothing like the full deli spreads at the downtown store on Dienerstrasse. If you want a light bite with your drink, the ham-and-cheese baguette and the buttered pretzel rolls get the most mentions in reviews.

Regulars in T2 Schengen report grabbing a quick espresso and pastry here before early Lufthansa departures between 6:00 and 9:00, then heading straight to gates G and H. Morning lines can stretch 10–15 minutes at peak, which is where most of the Google Maps complaints come from. Outside that rush window, service is usually quicker and it works well as a last stop after security but before you commit to a gate area.

Quality comments are consistent: “airport-level but fine” and better than chains or random BackWerk-style stands. Portions run on the smaller side for the price, a standard Dallmayr trait that shows up in reviews again and again. One upside: the packaged Dallmayr chocolates, coffee tins, and sweets near the till make easy last‑minute gifts when you skipped the city flagship.

Tip: if your boarding pass shows a tight connection under 45 minutes in Terminal 2, skip the long coffee line here and grab bottled drinks or snacks from a kiosk closer to your gate instead.
