ABOVE: The Musical Theater Neuschwanstein
offers a range of dining options, from a white-tablecloth restaurant to a
Bavarian beer hall.

Update: The musical, Ludwig II:
Longing for Paradise, is no longer running. The
Festspielhaus in Füssen in Allgäu
now stages operas and other productions and continues to offer gastronomy at
various price levels in the theatre's restaurants.
Dining at the
theatre
Although you can dine in nearby
Füssen before the show, I'd suggest having a meal at one of the theatre's
restaurants. Choices include:
Classic Café: Viennese-style
coffee and pastries. Fortify yourself for the road after a matinée, or stop in
for dessert during the 45-minute intermission at the evening show.
Romantic Restaurant: An
elegant dining room with multi-course dinners at first-class prices, plus lunch
on weekends and a "theatre platter" during intermissions. The restaurant has
only 120 seats, so I'd suggest that you reserve a table by calling +49 (0) 83 62
/ 9 39 13 33.
Panoramic Hall: A dinner
buffet is offered daily, with brunch/lunch service on weekends.
Bavarian Pub: The
Bierwirtschaft und Biergarten is open from late morning through late evening
daily, attracting tourists and motorists as well as theatergoers. It's a
pleasant, informal spot where you can order a beer with Munich's fabled
Weisswurst and other Bavarian specialties.
Champagne Bar. The theatre's
72-foot bar offers drinks and snacks from 6 p.m. through midnight. (On matinée
days, service begins at 1 p.m.)
