                <description><![CDATA[Neu-Isenburg is at the end of the Streetcar/Tram line 14, which passes through the city forest (Stadtwald) on the south side of Frankfurt. Well worth the ride in itself. Then it's a 10 minute walk to the old Market Square. <br><br>The quality of the German menu items is A1 and the green sauce is perhaps the best in the whole area. The staff are friendly: not the typical apple-wine pub bruskness. <br><br>Book in advance as it's always busy, though I have always found a table during a walk-in in the early evening. And for families with children, they actually like them here.]]></description>

It attracts a very arty crowd looking to have fun: Germans, as well as English, Irish and Scottish expats, and a straight/gay mixed crowd. Theme parties are the best. Think Christmas in August]]></description>

I can tell you for a fact that, for the best night out in the city, you need to head to Sachsenhausen, and specifically the Irish bar O'Dwyers and the Cuban bar round the corner.<br><br>Prepare yourself for extremely reasonably priced drinks, friendly people and a good time!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Schweizerstrasse is the main highstreet in the beautiful Sachsenhausen district south of the river Main. <br><br>Escape the massing throngs into a classic European tree lined avenue jam-packed with swanky bars for the beautiful people and cider taverns for everyone else. All mixed in with your normal highstreet shops, you can find everything here in one street without having search round and get lost.<br><br>Recommended is 'Zumgemaltenhaus' (the painted house) for a traditional local cider tavern, huge portions of quality local dishes and reasonable prices.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This is a small, atmospheric bar hidden in a side street just off the beaten track of the Fressgass. It has two floors and if you go upstairs there's a very novel way of getting your drinks. You lean over a railing to the bar below and shout down your order, which is placed in a basket on a rope. You then haul it up to access your beverages. <br><br>There's usually unobtrusive jazz playing, as the name suggests, and it's all very laid back and friendly. Don't go in large numbers though as there's limited space.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I don't recommend this well-known cider tavern for those with families. It’s on the outskirts of Frankfurt – in a place called Seckbach – and it’s very child unfriendly. They do not sell non-carbonated water, so we allowed a one-year-old baby to have some from a bottle we had in our bag.  The owner was outraged and threw us out of the bar. I suggest steering clear.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Located in Mainz, just outside Frankfurt, by the Rhine River, this restaurant is a must-visit. Originally, in the 13th century, it was a hospital and church for the poor and sick, and though it has since passed through many owners, it still retains a unique atmosphere. Now it has a restaurant, bar and beer garden serving breakfast, dinner, cocktails and even homemade pastries.]]></description>
