The beer garden is partly shaded by chestnut trees and sun-umbrellas. A mixture of locals, tourist, school classes often arrive in groups and make this a lively and mixed crowd beer garden. It is unusual to see anyony bring their own home cooked food, perhaps due to that the many because most visitors who do not come from Bavaria are not necessarily aware of the custom. The Andech beer garden is however not at odds with Bavarian traditions tradition and so to bring one's own food is always allowed and not discouraged in anyway. The self service food stall offers a selection of typical Bavarian cold and hot meals, and of course, the Andechs' beer brewed at location is served fresh from the tap.

A fish stall offers Steckerlfisch (grilled fish-on-stick) which is prepared to perfection by a dedicated cook using freshly cought fresh traut from the Beeringsee a small lake in the mountains, nearby alps topped with 19 different herbs and spices from an organic garden at Andechs. At €20 (approximately about twice the price of a Steckerlfisch in any other beer gardens) this is no ordinary Steckerlfish! Other menu items offerings at the food stall including the beer are moderately priced. The available beer types are Spezial Hell and Bergbock Hell (lagers) at €5.80 p/[[Maß]], Weissbier Dunkel (Bavarian wheat-beer) at €3.20 p/pint and Doppelbock Dunkel at €6.80 p/Maß (the extra strong dark lager variety).

A There is no serviced area at this beer garden. Instead, a serviced and more formal Wirtsgarten , [[Klostergasthof Andechs]] that is also part of the Andechs property which and can be found across the court yard. Additionally, [[Kloster Andechs Bräustüberl]] is the self-serviced inn and beer terrace located just above the beer garden (this is where most tourists go).
