A favorite hangout for corporate yuppies and the literati of Frankfurt, the Autorenbar at the Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof, has a casual and inviting atmosphere. It is an ideal place to unwind after a long day's work or to carry out business over cocktails. The lounge area of the bar is comfortable with plush black-leather chairs to sink into. The bar seats a large number of patrons, yet it is decorated in a way to ensure privacy for all.
Kultur auf dem Hof was established in 1998 by the Weyell family. The farm is popularly known for hosting live musical concerts. A great line-up of local and national artists, musicians, and bands perform here quite often. Apart from the concerts, you can also attend cabaret acts, comedy gigs, and other local events. Artists those by the likes of Smokie, Atze Schröder, Konstantin Wecker, and Spider Murphy Gang have graced the venue in the past.
Estragon is not your hi-fi luxurious restaurant but for their seafood, even the simple and elegant quarters are worth the visit. In fact, the cozy dining room along with the patio garden makes for a perfect intimate venue, the kind that is usually reserved for romantic and special occasions. The main draw here is the food which has made regulars out of local and visiting patrons over the years. From starter dishes like the Terrine of Crustaceans with Salmon and Caviar to mains like Sea Bass in Tomato Saffron Sauce and Veal Kidneys, each dish is prepared with high attention to detail. Menu selections are accompanied by fine wines and rich desserts. Reservations are welcomed; a definite must visit for every seafood lover.
Tucked away in Frankfurt's Northend neighborhood, Phoenix Tea, although an English name, serves delectable teas from the far East. The extensive variety of teas offered here, are exclusively sourced from Japan and Taiwan and are not easily found in Frankfurt. Highly recommended blends are Mo Li Zhen Zhu (Jasmine Pear tea) and Ginseng Oolong from Taiwan, and Gyokuro, Tokujo Sencha and other green tea varieties from Japan. Teas from Darjeeling and Assam in India as well as from Sri Lanka are also available here.
To find a restaurant that serves healthy fast food is a rarity, but Savory most definitely belongs in that minority. You will find no non-vegetarian items here; the vegetarian offerings are organic, and all the packaging used is environmentally friendly. Breakfast is possibly the most popular meal, but you can even stop by later for some delicious pizzas, sandwiches, burgers and more. Those with a sweet tooth are sure to be delighted by the cupcakes on offer.
