Signature dishes: Grüne Soße, Frankfurter Schnitzel
Must order: Schnitzel with Grüne Soße, the Sachsenhausen standard
Tip: It sits next door to Fichtekränzi, so treat Wallstraße as a two-stop tavern crawl; no sports screens, by house policy.
Address: Wallstraße 7, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Zum Eichkatzerl on Dreieichstraße feeds Frankfurt oversized schnitzel and apfelwein in a garden courtyard away from Sachsenhausen's tourist lanes.
Signature: Frankfurter Schnitzel
Order: The plate-covering schnitzel; portions here are a local running joke
Tip: Evenings only and closed Sunday; locals book the courtyard for birthdays, so reserve ahead for groups of six or more.
Dauth-Schneider anchors the Klappergasse corner of Frankfurt's Brückenviertel, an all-day apfelwein tavern pouring from stoneware Bembel since 1850.
Signature: Handkäs mit Musik, Rippchen mit Kraut
Order: Rippchen mit Kraut with a fresh-tapped Schoppen of apfelwein
Tip: One of the few taverns serving from 11:30 daily, so it is the lunch move; the tree-shaded terrace fills first.
Ebbelwoi Unser is the young Sachsenhausen tavern on Abtsgäßchen where Frankfurt regulars actually drink, open evenings until midnight or later.
Signature: Handkäs mit Musik, Grüne Soße
Order: The classic plate of Handkäs mit Musik before anything from the grill
Tip: The name is a pun on the Lord's Prayer; it runs later than the old guard, so end a tavern crawl here rather than start.

Gasthaus Zur Sonne has stood at the top of Frankfurt's Berger Straße for over 250 years, a half-timbered Bornheim tavern with a big chestnut garden.
Signature: Handkäs mit Musik, Frankfurter Schnitzel
Order: Frankfurter Schnitzel with the seven-herb Grie Soß, then Apfelstrudel
Tip: The courtyard behind the half-timbered house is Bornheim's best summer room; the heated barn takes over in winter.
Apfelwein Solzer presses its own apple wine in Bornheim, Frankfurt, in a house the Solzer family has run in the fifth generation since 1893.
Signature: Frankfurter Schnitzel, Handkäs mit Musik
Order: A Schoppen of the self-pressed apfelwein with schnitzel and fried potatoes
Tip: The 300-seat summer garden hides behind the Berger Straße front; the old pressing house room is the one to ask for.
Zum Rad has pressed its own apfelwein in the village lanes of Seckbach since 1806, a Frankfurt tavern courtyard most visitors never manage to find.
Signature: Grüne Soße
Order: The house-pressed apfelwein alongside Grüne Soße with boiled eggs
Tip: Take the U4 to Seckbacher Landstraße and walk ten minutes into the old village; the courtyard is worth the detour alone.
