[Update: June 5, 2023 from the restaurant's Instagram account
As of today, Koko's will be suspending service at 4715 East 5th Street for the summer for maintenance and renovations. Stay tuned, stay cool, and watch this space for more info.]
A few days ago, a friend who lives in Austin messaged me about a restaurant she and her husband were planning to visit. The restaurant is called Koko's Bavarian and is owned by (in partnership) HRH Prince Konstantin of Bavaria. My friend wanted to know if this prince was a real prince. My response: yes. he is.
HRH Prince Konstantin Eugen Alexander Max-Emanuel Maria Ludwig Ferdinand Leopold of Bavaria is the 5th and youngest child of TRH Prince Leopold and Princess Ursula of Bavaria. He was named for his grandfather, HRH Konstantin Leopold Ludwig Adalbert Georg Thadeus Josef Petrus Johannes Antonius Franz von Assisi Assumption et omnes sancti of Bavaria (1920-1969).
The 35-year-old prince, who is called Koko, told Tribeza, a local Austin publication: “A traditional beer hall is all about food and, naturally, the beer. Among the locals in Bavaria, it is seen as an extension to your own home, so the beer hall has a familiar, cozy, and easygoing vibe as well. I think Austin resonates that welcoming vibe, too. Just like a beer hall in Bavaria, all are welcome in Austin … The aim of Koko’s Bavarian is to stay true to the roots and culture of Bavaria while retaining the Austin spirit.”
The restaurant opened late last year. My friend says the food and beer are both good.

Thank you in advance,

Is he really a royal prince? The sons of the monarch and the grandsons of the sons of the monarach are princes. Bavatia has not had a monarch for some time now.
Legally, he is Konstantin Prinz von Bayern, as a legal name as titles became a surname in 1919 with the establishment of a republic. However, socially, and among other royal houses, the former ruling families' titles are used. In Bavaria, there is still great respect for the former ruling family - and titles are used in the German press, invitations, death notices, etc.
