Frankfurt has its own distinctive cuisine. Handkäse mit Musik is a curdled cheese sliced onto dark bread and topped with a mixture of vinegar, onions and caraway seeds. Grüne Sosse is another favourite - a sauce made of parsley, sorrel, dill, burnet, borage, chervil and chives, eaten with eggs, beef and potato.

Monastery Magic: Klosterhof
Serving delicious meals since 1936, Klosterhof (Weissfrauenstrasse 3) is a great place for a meal if your girlfriend is sick of the football. They also serve a very quick lunch from 12pm-3pm if you need to grab a bite before the match.

Not for Vegetarians: Steinernes Haus
With long wooden shared tables, Steinernes Haus (Braubachstrasse 35) specialises in rump steak that is brought to your table raw and cooked in front of you on a heated rock tablet. With litre mugs of beer as standard, this is one for the lads and good for groups.

Urban Cool: Café Karin
For a great breakfast or quick bite at lunchtime, try Café Karin (Grosser Hirschgraben 28). In the summer there are seats outside, and the cakes and salads are particularly good.
