A half-timbered old town 25 minutes west, with a three-morning market hall and cafe life untouched by the centre's pace.
Wunderbar is the café anchor of Frankfurt-Höchst's old town, pouring coffee by the half-timbered lanes far from the city-centre crowds and their noise.
Signature drink: Coffee in Höchst's old town, kitchen running all day
Tip: Pair it with the Höchst porcelain museum and the Main ferry; Sunday closes at 16:00, so go for late breakfast.
Wunderbar is Höchst's bar as well as its cafe, pouring until midnight among half-timbered lanes on Frankfurt's western edge, last orders near midnight.
Signature drink: An evening beer in Höchst's old town
Tip: After the kitchen closes at 21:00 the front room becomes the district's living room; last S-Bahn back runs well past midnight.
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.
Wunderbar does Höchst's Sunday breakfast among the half-timbered lanes, the far-west Frankfurt brunch nobody crosses the city for but should.
Order: The Sunday breakfast before the 16:00 close
Tip: Pair brunch with the Saturday morning market on Melchiorstraße two minutes away; Sunday ends early at 16:00.
