In 1995 the WaWi beer garden fought against a 9pm closing restriction requested by the Bavarian Administrative Court on behalf of local residents disturbed by the noise. The event led to the so-called Beer Garden Revolution, at which 25,000 Munich residents took to the streets at Marientplatz to demonstrate for the preservation the beer garden culture. A Bavarian Beer Garden Regulation law was consequently established which applies to all traditional Bavarian beer gardens, ie. those where guests are permitted to bring their own meals while only buying the drinks. The Waldwirtschaft beer garden is now permitted to play live music until 11pm.

Already by lunchtime on Sundays the beer garden is usually packed. A Maß Spaten Hell costs costs €7. The Franziskaner Weißbier costs €4 for half Maß. For those who bring their own food, the beer garden offers a barbecue station where steaks and sausages can be prepared by the guests themselves.
