15 restaurants in Frankfurt, editor-picked for restaurants open sunday. Where to eat a sit-down dinner on sunday. All restaurants in Frankfurt.
Apfelwein Wagner ★ 4.6
sachsenhausen · Schweizer Strasse 71, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Daily 11:00-00:00
Apfelwein Wagner is the Sachsenhausen tavern Frankfurt sends first-timers to, pouring its own Ebbelwoi beside Grüne Soße plates daily since 1931.
Tip: No reservations for small groups at peak times; join the shared benches and the Bembel arrives without being asked.
Lorsbacher Thal ★ 4.6
sachsenhausen · Große Rittergasse 49, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon-Fri 17:00-00:00; Sat-Sun 12:00-00:00
Lorsbacher Thal treats apfelwein like a cellar wine in Frankfurt's Große Rittergasse, 300-plus bottlings deep in a tavern running since 1803.
Tip: Hessen a la carte member kitchen, so the food outclasses the average tavern; the barrel cellar tour is worth asking about.
Bornheimer Ratskeller ★ 4.5
bornheim · Kettelerallee 72, 60385 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Tue-Sat 17:00-23:00, kitchen until 21:30; Sun 12:00-20:00; closed Mon
Bornheimer Ratskeller is Frankfurt's producer-driven Gasthaus, Bib Gourmand in the 2026 Michelin Guide and Falstaff's Gasthaus of the Year 2026.
Tip: This is the tavern-format kitchen worth crossing town for; the tree garden takes no bookings, the dining room does.
Zur Buchscheer ★ 4.5
sachsenhausen · Schwarzsteinkautweg 17, 60598 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Wed-Fri 17:00-23:00; Sat-Sun 12:00-23:00; closed Mon-Tue
Zur Buchscheer is the Frankfurt tavern purists name first: apfelwein pressed on the premises since 1876, out in quiet leafy Sachsenhausen-Süd.
Tip: Weekends open at noon and fill with families; weekday evenings are when the regulars hold court under the trees.
Zum Gemalten Haus ★ 4.5
sachsenhausen · Schweizer Strasse 67, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Wed-Thu and Sun 11:00-23:00; Fri-Sat 11:00-00:00; closed Mon-Tue
Zum Gemalten Haus keeps the painted-parlour version of Frankfurt tavern culture alive on Schweizer Strasse, with Bembel service running since 1936.
Tip: Closed Monday and Tuesday, unlike its neighbours; the front Stube under the murals beats the back room for atmosphere.
Mon Amie Maxi ★ 4.4
westend · Bockenheimer Landstraße 31, 60325 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon-Fri 12:00-15:00 and 18:00-00:00; Sat 18:00-00:00; Sun 12:00-15:00 and 18:00-00:00
Mon Amie Maxi runs Frankfurt's most theatrical brasserie room in the Westend: oysters, chandeliers and steak frites until midnight most nights.
Tip: The oyster bar takes walk-ins even when the book is full; Sunday lunch is the calmest way to see the room in daylight.
Emma Metzler ★ 4.4
sachsenhausen · Schaumainkai 17, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Tue-Sun lunch until 14:00, dinner from 18:00; closed Mon
Emma Metzler is Frankfurt's museum restaurant done right: Anton de Bruyn's regional neo-bistro cooking inside the Museum Angewandte Kunst building.
Tip: Reserve the Metzler Park terrace at lunch; afternoons in between services run on cream puffs and Due Mani espresso.
Apfelwein Solzer ★ 4.4
bornheim · Berger Straße 260, 60385 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon and Wed-Fri 17:00-00:00; Sat 14:00-00:00; Sun 12:00-22:00; closed Tue
Apfelwein Solzer is Bornheim's fifth-generation cider house in Frankfurt, self-pressing since 1893 with a 300-seat garden off Berger Straße.
Tip: Ask to sit in the Kelterhaus, the old pressing room; Saturday from 14:00 is the gentlest slot before the evening rush.
Ramen Jun ★ 4.4
westend · Wilhelm-Hauff-Straße 10, 60325 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon-Sat 11:30-22:00, last order 21:00; Sun and holidays 11:30-21:00
Ramen Jun built Frankfurt's ramen standard from a small Westend dining room near the Messe, broth simmered in-house daily and queues to match.
Tip: Solo counter seats turn over fastest at peak; the Altstadt sibling Ramen Jun Red on Fahrgasse runs later evenings.
Dauth-Schneider ★ 4.3
sachsenhausen · Neuer Wall 5-7, 60594 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Daily 11:30-00:00
Dauth-Schneider feeds the Klappergasse corner of Frankfurt's tavern quarter from 11:30 daily, a Bembel house pouring on this corner since 1850.
Tip: Its long daily hours make it the fallback when smaller taverns close; the terrace under the trees seats big groups easily.
Saravanaa Bhavan ★ 4.2
bahnhofsviertel · Kaiserstraße 68, 60329 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Daily 09:00-22:30
Saravanaa Bhavan anchors Kaiserstraße's Indian block in Frankfurt with all-vegetarian dosa, idli and thali service from morning until late night.
Tip: Open from 09:00, so it doubles as the Bahnhofsviertel's best meat-free breakfast; weekday lunch queues peak at 13:00.
GRETA OTO ★ 4.2
innenstadt · Thurn-und-Taxis-Platz 2, 60313 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Daily 12:00-15:00 and 18:00-23:00, last order 22:00; bar from 10:00
GRETA OTO gives central Frankfurt a Latin American dining room on Thurn-und-Taxis-Platz, ceviche and Amazon-inspired plates until 22:00 daily.
Tip: The all-day bar makes it a rare polished walk-in option between the Zeil and the towers; lunch is calmer than dinner.
Franziska ★ 4.2
sachsenhausen · Hainer Weg 72, 60599 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Sun-Thu 18:00-00:00; Fri-Sat 18:00-01:00
Franziska cooks progressive German vintage dishes on Hainer Weg in Frankfurt, family recipes rebuilt with modern technique, open every night.
Tip: Seven-night service makes it the Sunday answer in Sachsenhausen; Fridays run to 01:00 for a slow second bottle.
OOSTEN Realwirtschaft am Main ★ 4.1
ostend · Mayfarthstraße 4, 60314 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon-Fri 17:00-23:00; Sat 12:00-23:00; Sun and holidays 10:00-22:00
OOSTEN serves Mediterranean plates around a preserved harbour crane on Frankfurt's Ostend riverbank, its terrace facing the ECB tower and the Main.
Tip: Sunday opens at 10:00 for the long riverside breakfast; in summer the crane terrace books out before the dining room.
Moriki ★ 4.1
westend · Taunusanlage 12, 60325 Frankfurt am Main
Hours: Mon-Fri 12:00-16:00 and 18:00-23:00; Sat-Sun 12:00-23:00
Moriki holds the ground floor of the Deutsche Bank towers in Frankfurt with sushi, gyoza and pan-Asian mains served across seven days a week.
Tip: Weekends are far easier than banking-week lunch; delivery boxes travel well if the towers are your office.
