Tip: The all-beef sausage was born here in 1894; eat it standing with mustard and bread, then buy a vacuum pack for home.
Address: Hanauer Landstraße 132, 60314 Frankfurt am Main
Metzgerei Schreiber's stand 8 in Frankfurt's Kleinmarkthalle serves hot Fleischwurst, Krakauer and Gelbwurst with mustard to a permanent queue.
Try: Hot Fleischwurst eaten standing at stand 8
Tip: Order the Fleischwurst with Senf, take the paper plate to the standing tables, and accept that the queue is part of the ritual.
Edel's Hausmannskost dishes Grüne Soße and Hessian home cooking from stand 24 of Frankfurt's Kleinmarkthalle, the fastest honest lunch in the centre.
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 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
Tip: When Schreiber's line wraps the aisle, Michel's sausage specialities two rows over settle the same craving faster.
Anadolu Metzgerei runs the Turkish counter on the Kleinmarkthalle gallery, sucuk and spiced cuts above Frankfurt's main market floor every market day.
Try: Turkish meat specialities from the gallery stands
Tip: The gallery level gets half the foot traffic of the ground floor; come here for sucuk and merguez-style links to cook at home.
Frittenwerk fries fresh-cut potatoes on Kaiserstraße in Frankfurt, stacking poutines and currywurst fries for the station-district lunch rush.
Try: Poutine and loaded fries with house-made dips
Tip: The Kaiserstraße shop closes at 19:00, earlier than the street around it; the Skyline Plaza branch catches the evening gap.
Der Fette Bulle keeps Kaiserstraße's burger queue moving in Frankfurt, patties and hand-cut fries eaten fast at the counter seats by the window.
Try: Smashed-style cheeseburger with chilli cheese fries
Tip: Counter seats turn over quickest at lunch; the falafel burger keeps mixed groups on the same side of the street.
