Tip: After 17:00 in summer it becomes the city's biggest informal party; come earlier if you actually want the vegetables.
Address: Friedberger Platz, 60316 Frankfurt am Main
Bockenheim's Thursday market at the Warte tower mixes Hessian growers with international stalls, serving Frankfurt's student quarter all day.
Tip: Pair the market with the Wednesday-to-Saturday campus life around the Warte; stalls thin out fast after 17:00.
Oberrad's Saturday market on Buchrainplatz sits in the district that grows Frankfurt's Grüne Soße herbs, field to stall in one village square.
Tip: Oberrad calls itself the herb garden of Frankfurt; in season the seven-herb bundles here are as fresh as they exist anywhere.
The Höchst market hall trades three mornings a week by the old town's half-timbered lanes, western Frankfurt's daily-bread institution on Melchiorstraße.
Tip: Go Saturday, then walk the two minutes into Höchst's Altstadt for coffee at Wunderbar and the Main ferry crossing.
The Friday Schillermarkt lines Schillerstraße by the old stock exchange, Frankfurt's banking crowd buying lunch from farm stalls every week.
Tip: Hit it between 12:00 and 14:00 for the full lunch scrum, or after 16:00 when the sellers start dealing on prices.
The Thursday Kaisermarkt lines Kaiserstraße in Frankfurt's Bahnhofsviertel, a weekly street-market pause between the towers and the station.
Tip: Go at lunchtime when the office crowd arrives; the food stalls do their heaviest trade between 12:00 and 14:00.
Kleinmarkthalle is Frankfurt's covered market of over 60 stalls, where locals queue at Metzgerei Schreiber for hot sausage eaten standing up.
Tip: Do the circuit: hot Fleischwurst at stand 8, Grüne Soße from Edel's, bread from Huck, then a Schoppen on the Rollanderhof wine terrace upstairs.
