Street foodinnenstadtMon-Fri 08:00-18:00; Sat 08:00-16:00; closed SunCash only

Stand 30 of Frankfurt's Kleinmarkthalle sells Oberhessen and north German sausage specialities, the market hall's deep cut for the wurst obsessive.

Try: Regional Hessian sausage from stand 30

Tip: Ask for the Oberhessen air-dried styles you will not find in supermarkets; the vendors slice tasting slivers if you ask nicely.

Best Worscht in Town ★ 4.3

Street foodwestendMon-Fri 10:30-19:00; Sat 11:30-18:00; closed Sun

Best Worscht in Town scales Frankfurt currywurst from mild to the feared FBI sauce, Lars Obendorfer's Grüneburgweg stand grown from a 1970 snack cart.

Try: Currywurst with heat levels up to the notorious FBI sauce

Tip: Sauces climb from Bissi Prickeln to a claimed 1,200,000 SCU; sign the waiver of common sense above level C at your own risk.

Gref-Völsings ★ 4.6

Street foodostendShop Mon-Fri 08:00-15:00; Braterei Mon-Fri 11:00-15:00; closed Sat-Sun

Gref-Völsings has made Frankfurt's Rindswurst since 1894, and its Ostend Braterei window still sells them hot with a roll at lunchtime on weekdays.

Try: Rindswurst, hot from the Braterei window

Tip: The all-beef sausage was born here in 1894; eat it standing with mustard and bread, then buy a vacuum pack for home.

Street foodinnenstadtMon-Fri 08:00-18:00; Sat 08:00-16:00; closed SunCash only

Edel's Hausmannskost (Kleinmarkthalle) ★ 4.4

Street foodinnenstadtMon-Fri 08:00-18:00; Sat 08:00-16:00; closed SunCash only

Try: Grüne Soße with eggs, ladled at a market stand

Tip: This is the cheapest way to try real Grüne Soße in the city centre; Saturdays sell out the pots well before closing.

Michel's Feinkost (Kleinmarkthalle) ★ 4.0

Street foodinnenstadtMon-Fri 08:00-18:00; Sat 08:00-16:00; closed SunCash only

Michel's Feinkost slices traditional sausage and ham at stand 62 of Frankfurt's Kleinmarkthalle, the quieter counter beside Schreiber's queue.

Try: Traditional sausage and ham cut over the counter
