Tip: Kitchen closes at 23:00 but the taps do not; the pizzeria next door covers late hunger for as long as its own queue holds out.
Address: Fahrgasse 4, 60311 Frankfurt am Main
Harvey's sixteen-hour days end at 01:00 on its Nordend corner, Frankfurt's rare room equally right at 09:00 and after midnight on the same corner.
Try: Late drinks where brunch happened twelve hours earlier
Tip: The kitchen shortens late; drinks and the corner terrace carry the last hours, especially on warm Fridays.
Chinaski Club opens at 22:00 and runs to 04:00 late in the week, the Nachtclub opposite the Alte Oper on Frankfurt's Bockenheimer Landstraße.
Try: Drinks and dancing until first light
Tip: Nothing here rewards arriving early; midnight onward is the point, and Thursday is the connoisseur's night.
O'Reilly's holds the corner opposite Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof with pints until 03:00 on Saturdays, the traveller's last and first stop in the station district.
Try: Pints, pub food and live sport by the station
Tip: It is the pragmatic late option before a night train; kitchen hours are shorter than the taps, so eat before midnight.
Klapper 33 keeps Sachsenhausen's Klappergasse awake until 05:00 at weekends, the late Kneipe where Frankfurt tavern nights refuse to accept an ending.
Try: Beer and apfelwein in a smoky Sachsenhausen Kneipe
Tip: It is a smoker's Kneipe of the old school; go after the apfelwein houses close and expect the room to decide when you leave.
Balalaika opens at 20:00 and sings until 03:00 on weekends, Frankfurt's candlelit music-bar answer to the question of one more drink after midnight.
Try: Nightcaps with live music in candlelight
Tip: Weeknights close at 01:00, weekends at 03:00; the music decides the mood, so surrender the playlist expectations.
YALDY is the Bahnhofsviertel's late kitchen of record, Bib Gourmand plates and cocktails on Moselstraße until 02:00 at the weekend, kitchen included.
Try: Late shared plates and natural wine
Tip: The rare Frankfurt combination: real cooking after midnight; the bar seats stay friendliest for late solo arrivals.
