Bakery€nordendMon-Fri 07:00-20:00; Sat 07:30-20:00; Sun 07:30-19:00Organic sourdough loaves and laminated pastries
Zeit für Brot bakes organic sourdough and cinnamon rolls in an open bakehouse on Oeder Weg, the Frankfurt-born chain's Nordend flagship and longest queue.
Tip: The brand started in Frankfurt before conquering Berlin; weekend mornings sell rolls faster than the ovens turn them over.
Worth the queue: Zimtschnecke cinnamon roll from the open bakery
Bakery€bahnhofsviertelMon-Fri 07:00-19:00; Sat-Sun 08:00-18:00Organic breads for the station district
The Kaiserstraße branch of Zeit für Brot gives Frankfurt's Bahnhofsviertel an organic bakery counter between the döner grills and wine bars.
Tip: Handy for a train-station breakfast far better than the Hauptbahnhof concourse; it closes earlier than the Oeder Weg original.
Worth the queue: Schoko-Zimtschnecke and seeded sourdough
Bakery€sachsenhausenMon-Fri 06:30-19:00; Sat-Sun 07:30-19:00Family-bakery breads with a Schweizer Straße café front
Huck's Favorite Place puts the Frankfurt family bakery Huck on Schweizer Straße from 06:30, breads and breakfast before Sachsenhausen wakes.
Tip: Opens earlier than nearly anything on the street; take a loaf across to the Main riverbank ten minutes north.
Worth the queue: Crusty rye loaves from the Huck family ovens
Bakery€innenstadtMon-Fri 08:00-18:00; Sat 08:00-16:00; closed SunMarket-hall bread stand of the Huck family bakery
Bäckerei Huck holds stands 70-71 in Frankfurt's Kleinmarkthalle, the bread stop on a market crawl past the sausage and Grüne Soße stalls every market day.
Tip: Buy the roll first, then queue at Metzgerei Schreiber's sausage counter; the market pairing costs a few euros total.
Worth the queue: Fresh rolls and croissants at stands 70-71
Bakery€nordendMon-Fri 07:00-19:00; Sun 08:00-16:00Country breads baked to Vogelsberg village recipes
Vogelsbergbäcker brings village bread from the Vogelsberg hills to Koselstraße in Frankfurt's Nordend, a counter of dense honest loaves that keep for days.
Tip: Sunday opening makes it the Nordend's bread lifeline when the chains shut; the darker the loaf, the better it keeps.
Worth the queue: Dark crusty Landbrot from the Vogelsberg hills
Bakery€innenstadtMon-Fri 07:00-17:00; closed Sat-SunWeekday bakery counter in the banking quarter
Our Daily Bread feeds Frankfurt's tower workers from Taunustor 2, a weekday bakery counter timed exactly to banking-district hours, pastry case included.
Tip: Strictly a Monday-to-Friday operation like its skyscraper neighbours; go before 09:00 for the full pastry case.
Worth the queue: Lunch breads and pastries under the Taunusturm
