"Nice burger place with a wide variety of delicious looking burgers & sides! Even vegetarians will be happy with all the options here!
My truffle burger was super yummy but would have liked a more intense truffle flavour but still a really good burger! The garlic fries were also super tasty!
The atmosphere is a bit hectic and noisy but I didn't mind at all.
Definitely worth a visit!"

"After church, I had lunch here with friends (10 pp) from church. I had the Avo burger, sweet potatoes fries and truffle mayo dip.
It was really good. I totally enjoy and recommend the dip.
The place is big enough for a large crowd, good customer service and good food. Totally recommend."

6 Tipps 🍔 Burger essen in Frankfurt 🍟 2024
Der Black Box Burger in der Melibocusstraße in Niederrad ist die etwas andere Gourmet-Burger-Bar. Gürhan und Servet - die beiden Niederräder Jungs haben sich im Februar 2016 ihren Traum erfüllt: die eigene Burger-Bar in ihrem Viertel zwischen Bürostadt und dem alten Teil Niederrads. Dort sind die ausgebildeten und international geschulten Köche groß geworden, hier sind sie zuhause, hier fühlen sie sich wohl.

Just a stone throw away from Frankfurt main train station, is one of the most famous burger places in town. ‘Der Fette Bulle’ (or ‘the fat bull’) is not a regular burger place, but instead a fancy burger restaurant. Loved by travelers, for a hearty meal after a long journey, enjoyed by party folks for a good late night eat and appreciated by burger snobs for the quality.
The Ultimate Frankfurt Restaurant Guide: Best Restaurants By Cuisine
Der Fette Bulle (the fat bull) is definitely the millenial hipster burger joint. The location in the Bahnhofsviertel is definitely more busy than the one in Nordend but both make delicious burgers at a very reasonable price (under €10 mostly). They also offer beers, wine, and various sides to go along with the burger.L
Food spots in Frankfurt
Der Fette Bulle is a hamburger restaurant very close to the Frankfurt Central Station (Hauptbahnhof). Besides the usual beef burgers they also have several chicken burgers and no less than four vegetarian burgers. I love veggie burgers.
