Wendel's Bakery & Bistro has four locations with Tianmu being probably the best location because of the outside beer garden. The location in Da'an and Neihu offer just as much selection as the Tianmu, but the menu selection differs a little and they have way more pizza options than the Tianmu location. The Takashimaya branch is the smallest, and while I'm sure it's good, you haven't fully experienced Wendel's until you've gone to one of the big three branches.
They offer authentic German bread in their bakery & deli, and also have some other take home items such as cheese, homemade jam, cake, and dessert. The bistro section of Wendel's serves the best Taipei German food that I have found so far. Everyone else I know, Germans included, also agree that it's the best that is available in Taipei. Wendel's is a third generational German Bakery and the current generational line, Michael Wendel, has added the delicious bistro section to the bakery.
I ate at the Tianmu branch, the flagship store, for this review. The bistro section has two sections, one inside and one outside in the biergarden (beer garden). As I said before, the beer garden is why the Tianmu location is considered the best in most people's opinions. It is nice to sit outside to enjoy the fresh air and leisurely eat your German food and beer. Every single dish that I tried from the beginning cold cuts to the finishing dessert were delicious. This is the place to be in Taipei for Oktoberfest!
