The Munich hosts are shocked: The new lockdown would hit them particularly hard.

The restaurateurs met in the Augustinerkeller to discuss how to proceed.

  • Munich's * Corona numbers are increasing faster and faster, the city is on the

    Corona traffic light *

    in the dark red zone.

  • Another lockdown hits restaurateurs particularly hard.

  • They met in the Augustinerkeller on Arnulfstrasse for the Secret Summit.

Update October 29th, 10:47 am:

The Munich

city ​​center

innkeepers

have expressed themselves "stunned and dismayed" about the decision to a one-month limited

lockdown

.

"Even the

Robert Koch Institute

sees the risk of infection in the catering trade at just 0.5 percent," said

Gregor Lemke

, head of the Augustiner Klosterwirt and chairman of the Munich city center

restaurant

association, on Thursday.

"The RKI has clearly stated that restaurants are not the drivers of the infection." The

restaurateurs

paid close attention

to protecting their own staff and guests

with a great deal of

hygiene and safety measures

.

"It is a shock that we now have to accept a new lockdown anyway."

The temporary

forced closure

will worsen the situation of the already battered industry.

"Our inn culture, which has grown over generations, is in danger," said Lemke.

Many should have given up.

"If things continue like this, 30 to 40 percent of companies will go bankrupt." The Munich innkeepers therefore quickly asked for

financial aid

.

"This must be done quickly and effectively, otherwise there will be a big death in pubs."

Bitter lockdown message!

Landlords from Munich consult in the Augustinerkeller: "That has never happened before"

Origin notification:

Munich - Every minute, taxis and cars stop in front of the Augustinerkeller on Arnulfstrasse, and those arriving quickly scurry into the pub.

Sometimes the mask inscription

"WirtshausWiesn", "Augustiner" or "Görreshof" reveals

that a host is hidden behind it, sometimes you can infer from the vehicle with a brewery slogan or a restaurant name on it ... This is where hosts in the station district

die

to attend a secret summit.

A first - as a host of our newspaper confirmed.

"It has never happened before the innkeepers organize themselves among themselves and not through the association."

So many restaurateurs took part in the summit that another room in the Augustinerkeller had to be used for this in addition to the ballroom.

Among others,

Oktoberfest host Christian Schottenhamel

, the Hochreiters (beer garden on Viktualienmarkt) and representatives of the Blauer Bock were there.

The tenant of the Augustinerkeller,

Christian Vogler

, who only hit the headlines at the beginning of October because he had won a million-dollar lawsuit against his insolvent insurance company, had invited.

This had to pay him 1.014 million euros for the costs of the corona-related company closure.

Are the restaurateurs planning to join forces now when the next lockdown comes next?

Coronavirus Munich: Berchtesgadener Wirt fails with urgent application - what are the Munich hosts doing?

A Berchtesgarden landlord had recently failed with a fundamental attempt, as the administrative court reported on Wednesday.

According to this, the entrepreneur wanted to achieve with an urgent application that he may also

entertain guests

during the regional

lockdown

ordered by the district office

.

Sebastian Kuffler, host of the Weinzelt at the Wiesn, said shortly before the event: “I think that today it is primarily about

exchange

.

We are betting on

compensation

if we really have to lock up again, ”he said.

Thomas Roiderer from the Hacker festival tent

also

vented

his anger at the entrance to the Augustinerkeller: “We do everything to ensure that the inns are safe.

Nevertheless, I believe that the lockdown will come even earlier than announced, maybe on Monday or Tuesday. ”And while Roiderer was uttering these words, the politicians in their group lashed out exactly this plan:

Lockdown from Monday

!

Even if there have not yet been any results from the gastro summit: You can imagine that the atmosphere in the ballroom was loaded.

The

frustration

about the

lockdown plans

was palpable at the entrance.

Many landlords are on the edge of their livelihoods, they have invested tens of thousands of euros in hygiene concepts in the past few months and in some cases have recorded significant losses.

Many are still putting off deferred rents and loans from March.

The innkeepers were already having a hard time doing business with curfew.
