- CarolineSeptember 2, 2018An absolutely old-established institution in frankfurt. Delicious food for breakfast/brunch, I particularly like the menu choice of FRA-districts > try Bornheim. Always friendly and fast service.
Omar Al DalaanJune 29, 2019They name their omelette a scrambled eggs on their menu 😅 but it’s very delicious dish. Their then pancakes is great too. The only bad thing is they only accept cash
MidiaJune 14, 2017Yes yes yes I enjoyed spending time there here was full of people and the staff were really polite the chees cake was also delicious.it has free wifi
Danae RoidouOctober 10, 2015What a beautiful surprise for a Greek to find here Frappé and Freddo! The first cafe in Frankfurt, where I found these greek types of coffee! Well done!
Thomas RuschkeJanuary 9, 2016Bloody Mary was so so, but did prepare me well for a day of shopping. We (2) shared the breakfast platter for two (forgot the name but it had 2 OJs, 2 Eggs, 2 Bircher Muesli) which was very nice.
Amber XiSeptember 24, 2022Right next to Goethe House located on Goethe street. Food was surprisingly good, a lot of all day breakfast and brunch selections.
Moritz BleibliebOctober 20, 2012Probably one of the best breakfast locations in this area. It has tradition and is one of the oldest and loveliest ones at Hauptwache. Prices are ok. Close to Goethehaus museum.
Danielle C.July 28, 2019Great spot for breakfast/brunch and some German classics. The Bauernomelette was very tasty!
Entisar ♥August 23, 2016Pancake with cinnamon & Sugar * many delicious omelets * club sandwich Tuna ... I tasted them all 😍🙊🙊.
Alice SonJune 9, 2015Absolutely the best all day breakfast in the area. No doubt. Friendly and quick service even though it's pretty crowded
Katherine HaightJuly 29, 2018Nearly lost faith in the Frankfurt food scene until I discovered Karin. It was wonderful! Staff was polite and English friendly!
Vivek ChaudhuriDecember 11, 2021Fantastic brunch options but my fav is the smoked salmon on bread with fantastic horseradish- Alexis AkersOctober 6, 2019The breakfast Bircher Musli was good. Love their open “marmelade bar” concept, perfect with a croissant.
Derek A.February 8, 2013This place is great. Stopped in on a long layover. Great coffee. Typical but updated and fresh German food. Definitely would recommend.
A place like heaven in the CBD of Frankfurt! Great Café with all things you could wish for!
Kim PhamDecember 8, 2014Solid brunch fare, but be prepared to wait 30+ minutes on the weekends and even longer for your food.
Jackson TsaiSeptember 15, 2014Cozy and comfortable cafe located in a busy district, great place to sit and relax
Ahmad AlsaggafOctober 3, 2015Nice place to have a breakfast in Frankfurt especially pancake and scrambled eggs
SebastianMay 4, 2017ATTN egg lovers: You can pick the ingredients and they sure know how to make a juicy omelette. Excellent!
- Fulya ArgunMarch 9, 2014Very fast service and friendly staff! Excellent breakfast and egg options with delicious cakes!
NmNovember 25, 2019One of the best omelette you will ever have “BUT” One of the worst service you will ever experience !! Lazy & Rude staff .. Very slow service .. Good coffee & Delicious cakes !!
Nick JonesFebruary 12, 2014Despite the Foursquare data saying it takes credit cards it does not. Good food and beer though. Limburger Snicker excellent
Mauro PérezJune 21, 2014come here only if you want to grow old while waiting for your breakfast. Bring a book, you'll have the chance to read the first half before ordering and the rest while until your food arrives.
Patricia OliveiraJuly 7, 2019The breakfast is good, the price is like 15€ per person, expensive but ok for the quantity and quality of food. The service is awful. If you don’t have time to wast, don’t go to Café Karin.
EdaMay 16, 2019Nice place but you cannot pay with your credit card. Ambiance good, delicious but a little bit expensive.
Emily PangNovember 16, 2016Ordered pancake omelet and salad. It's cozy and not that fancy. The food quality is soso
TimoOctober 24, 2015Perfect for breakfast, but it's not that easy to get a seat, especially on weekend.
- Akin Y.August 24, 2014Tried the frappé here. One of the worst I ever had. Where I come from you would get slapped for this!

"There's a bakery called Hollhorst round the corner. They serve really affordable cakes. Short queue all day long! Try the tarte au chocolate (chocolates tart) with a cup of tea."
