It’s the evening, you’re in Frankfurt and most importantly you’re thirsty. We both know what that means : you need a bar. Fortunately it’s Germany and there are bars absolutely everywhere. So many choices ! Good thing is I will advise you on which places are the best. I didn’t try (yet) all the bars in the city but a good portion, here is where you should go.

The fox and hound

The place to be

Okay so this one is basically my second home. I’m living something like 100 meters from here and this is clearly where you should go if you are in the neighborhood. It’s an English and International pub which makes it a very multi-cultural place. You can speak with everyone in English (in case the only German word you know is bier, though you would be fine here).

There is a huge variety of draft bier (so many good IPAs…) and very good meals for a fair price. You can even play dart ! The staff is although super friendly. Overall it’s definitely a very good place to chill and enjoy your evening with friends.

My favorite meal there, the ribs <3

Hunky dory bar

We are now moving to something completely different. This is a unique experience that you can have in Frankfurt. Just to give you an idea of the vibe, here is the main picture of the bar :

Looks so cool

This is a cocktail bar close to the main train station. But they are adding some amazing details to make your experience memorable. First, the drinks don’t have “casual” names but their own universe. I would strongly advise if you are searching something special the “Moon Raker” and the “Odin”.

Second, the way to order is a bit different… At every table there is an old school phone (you know with the round dial) and you can call the barman to order your cocktail. That’s so cool and original ! Don’t worry though if you don’t find how to use it you can still ask the staff nicely for your drink, it will work too. You can although call the other tables with the phone if your searching some people to discuss with.

It’s not super cheap but definitely somewhere to go in Frankfurt !

KIWIS – New zealand bar

To finish something I didn’t expect to find in Frankfurt : A New Zealand bar ! You know the Kiwi ? This cute bird coming from New Zealand that cannot fly ? Well this cocktail bar is based on it !

A lot of cocktails that you will find here embrace the New Zealand culture. It’s a very refreshing place with an amazing variety of choices. But special mention to the prices that are super low and even more in Happy Hour. Indeed between 16h and 19h you can have any cocktail for 5€ !

You can be sure we have used this Happy Hour as much as possible

So now you know some places you should go. Take some cash, go to one of these bars and enjoy your evening !
