Kanonesteppel in Frankfurt am Main

Beautiful Äppelwoiwirschaft with classic dishes and a lovely outdoor area.

Rustic cider restaurant with a beautiful courtyard, both in summer and winter. In my opinion, you get the best Frankfurter Schnitzel in the whole city here. The fried potatoes with it are also phenomenal! The apple cider is also very good and is of course part of it. The service is courteous and always on point. Absolute recommendation!

Simply great. Rustic, good home cooking. Quality and price are consistent.

Very good staff, open-minded, very friendly and attentive. The apple wine is the tastiest in Frankfurt and the cuisine is wonderful!

This is Frankfurt! No need to say more.

The food is very, very good! There are also small dishes that are definitely filling! The prices are very reasonable. All in all, a great place!

A service worker who lets a dog lick her hands and her extremely long fingernails (she fed the dog by hand) and then brings food and drinks directly to the tables with her licked hands/nails without cleaning them is really disgusting and certainly does not meet hygiene standards. It is - unfortunately increasingly in Frankfurt - only possible to pay in cash. It is generally known what intentions are being pursued with this. We know all the apple wine restaurants in Frankfurt and always change. This was the last time we were in the cannon steppe. Unfortunately, the atmosphere is no longer what it used to be. Admittedly, we have never been treated as unkindly as this time. We were incredibly embarrassed in front of our guests (non-Frankfurters) by how a traditional restaurant presented itself.

Very disappointing. When making the reservation, I had looked on the homepage beforehand for possible "cash payment only" tricks, but found no information. When it was said when paying that card payment was impossible and that it was written everywhere (can only be found on page 2 of the menu), the tone became harsher, including lying that it was also on the homepage. The staff was absolutely unfriendly and impossible. Items had already been written onto the invoice that never arrived at the table. Certainly not a place you would want to return to!

Food was super delicious! Service attentive and very nice. Dogs were welcome and there was a sausage from the chef. Thank you, we would love to come back.

Sometimes it can take a while for the food to arrive but it is very tasty. I don't think it's a bad idea to pay by card if you want to eat there with your family... you also have to have 200-300 euros in cash in your pocket

Yesterday, the five of us spent a wonderful evening at Kanonesteppel. This was partly due to the truly delicious food (everyone loved it) and partly to Janet's absolutely top-notch service. We'd love to come back!

We were with the family and didn't have a good experience at Kanonesteppel! Not more comfortable seating! The expensive food was very salty! We were disappointed! Robert & Simone with the family

Rustic, good food and friendly service

Good food, authentic service, quick, perfect!

Cozy Ebbelwoiwirschaft with good food in the heart of Sachsenhausen.

Locally overcrowded, service overwhelmed, visit unnecessary. There are by far better alternatives for a nice evening with typical Hessian food culture.

The three of us were there before a Eintracht game. It's a really nice cider bar where you immediately feel at home with the very friendly service. Unfortunately, as all the tables filled up, it was difficult to have a conversation (it was very noisy). It is also quite dark, although that does give it a flair. You can tell that the walls are getting old and starting to peel off a bit, unfortunately because they are very beautiful. The food was terrific, German home cooking, but also unusual ones, like the Eintracht Cordon Bleu with hand cheese were a blast! It wasn't the last time we were here.

Yes, very good food from Frankfurt, like from home

Nicely furnished, we were in the greenhouse and it was cozy and warm. Provided with blankets and a heater overhead, we were able to brave the cold outside for longer. Nevertheless, the mood was severely disturbed by the waitress, who was constantly smoking a butt, so ordering wasn't particularly easy. Later, an hour before the end, we were informed four times that it was almost over. As if we couldn't read a clock and that we should leave very punctually, preferably earlier than expected... that ruined everything that evening. Super rude! Despite a good order

Authentic Frankfurt restaurant - Frankfurter Schnitzel really very tasty!

Authentic Äppelwoi pub with delicious specialties and very nice service at fair prices. Danger; cash only!

I went to three famous restaurants nearby that had the same menu. I experienced the worst racism at the first place I went, so I was nervous when going to the restaurant, but they were very friendly and the food was delicious. At other places, the schnitzel is soggy, but here it is thin and crispy. The green sauce here was also the most delicious. Schweinhakse is a style where the meat inside the shell is soft. Of the three places I went to, it was the friendliest and most delicious.

Typical Frankfurt beer garden here, nice schnitzel

A real Frankfurt original! We had the famous Handkäs' with music as a starter - spicy, perfectly seasoned and exactly how you want it. Afterwards there was bratwurst with sauerkraut and puree - classic, hearty and excellently prepared. We also enjoyed a Pinot Blanc that went wonderfully with it. The service was great – attentive, friendly and with a lot of heart for Frankfurt hospitality. The rustic atmosphere makes the Kanonesteppel a real must for lovers of traditional cuisine. We'd love to come back! Gaby & Stefan

I sat down inside the plastic tent. I think non-smokers should avoid it. The food was reasonably good, but four people at the table next to me were taking turns chain-smoking, so I couldn't tell if they were eating schnitzel or chewing tobacco. The tent wasn't well ventilated, so the smell got all over our clothes and bags. In fact, it was there from before we ordered until we finished eating and left. Of course, I know that smoking is allowed in the seats, but I am leaving this review for the benefit of non-smokers. It seems like a good idea to create a separate smoking area. Ich habe einen Platz in einem Zelt genommen, aber Nichtraucher sollten es besser vermeiden. Das Essen war ganz in Ordnung, aber am Nachbartisch haben vier Personen ununterbrochen eine Zigarette nach der anderen geraucht, sodass ich nicht wusste, ob ich ein Schnitzel esse oder eine Zigarette kaue. 😅 Da das Zelt schlecht belüftet war, haben meine Kleidung und meine Tasche den Rauchgeruch komplett aufgenommen. Sie haben wirklich von dem Moment an, als wir bestellt haben, bis wir gegangen sind, durchgehend geraucht. Natürlich weiß ich, dass es ein Raucherbereich ist, aber ich hinterlasse diese Rezension für Nichtraucher, die es vielleicht wissen möchten. Ein separater Bereich für Raucher wäre wirklich sinnvoll.

Rustic traditional cider pub with the best schnitzels. My favorite is the Frankfurter Schnitzel with delicious green sauce and fried potatoes. The cider also tastes good and the service is quick and competent. Always beautiful!

We had reserved a winter cottage. Very tasty food and attentive service.

Here you will find a Frankfurt restaurant where you can meet many "old" Frankfurters. You will see and experience that there is no “fear of contact”. The food, no matter what, is plentiful and always tastes delicious. There is no beer here because it is purely an Äppelwoi economy.

The knuckle felt like it wasn't cooked through, even though it was very well baked on the outside. Unfortunately the cutlery wasn't suitable for cutting the crust. The atmosphere is, let's say, rustic. You can do it, but there are many comparable locations in Frankfurt.

Enjoyed a nice meal with an old friend. I wanted to share a typical experience in a Frankfurt restaurant where everyone shares a bench making it easy to make conversation with total strangers. The food was tasty, service stressed but friendly ( typical for these restaurants). I’ll be back.

Disfrutamos de una buena comida con un viejo amigo. Quería compartir una experiencia típica en un restaurante de Frankfurt donde todo el mundo comparte un banco haciendo que sea fácil hacer conversación con desconocidos totales. La comida era sabrosa, el servicio estresado pero amable (típico de estos restaurantes). Volveré.

Very good Schnitzel with local grüne Soße and Apfelwein. Of course, we couldn't miss Mispelchen :)

Simply wonderful, super tasty schnitzel and extremely friendly service.

Lively traditional restaurant in Frankfurt. Wonderfully friendly girls in service, very warm. The food is authentic and very fairly priced. Also the Ebbelwoi. Clear recommendation

Visité a mis amigos en Frankfurt y estando en Alemania sabía que conseguiría un Wiener Schnitzel vom Kalb. Mi amiga preguntó en Kanonesteppel y confirmaron que lo hacen así que reservó una mesa para el sábado por la noche. Siendo principios de diciembre el lugar estaba lleno de un ambiente animado, pero el servicio era excelente, solo igualado por la calidad de la comida. Fuimos bien atendidos por la encantadora Susann y ella manejó el grupo bastante ruidoso de chicos en su mayoría y un par de chicas con facilidad. Cuando llegaron ya estaban tipy y uno de los chicos más que los demás así que se lució. Mis amigos ya me han invitado de nuevo y espero que hagamos una visita a Kanonesteppel y esperemos ver a la muy eficiente Susann de nuevo. Bis dann.

Always my pleasure. Totally fully booked and stressful before the Eintracht game, only the staff stays calm and the food is good ❣️

The most beautiful restaurant in Frankfurt with the tastiest food. The battle plate is a dream! We have been coming here for many years and enjoy every moment. Many thanks to this great team!

Good quality and good value for money for years. Nice staff

An authentic apple wine bar in Frankfurt Sachsenhausen. Time has almost stood still, the menu is classic. You sit on benches, possibly with others. Prices moderate, food very tasty. Not for chic Micki. Few tourists, many regular guests.

Traditional german food and apple wine

Top shop. Lots going on, despite everyone being quick and friendly. Price performance is right. Pleasant guests. Hand cheese and Äppler were excellent

Great food. Sitting outdoors in glass houses in winter. It was a lot of fun. Any time!

Top 👍 It was super tasty and the staff was great

A must in Frankfurt: The Kanonesteppel apple wine tavern The Kanonesteppel apple wine inn is a real highlight and highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Frankfurt's cosiness and delicious food! The very friendly staff create a welcoming atmosphere right from the start, and the excellent service rounds off the experience perfectly. The food is simply sensational! In particular, the schnitzel with green sauce and fried potatoes as well as the pork knuckle are real taste experiences and absolutely recommended. Every dish is prepared fresh and with a lot of love - you can taste the quality! The price-performance ratio is also excellent: here you can get first-class food at really fair prices. Add a glass of traditional cider and the evening is perfect. If you love Frankfurt cuisine or want to get to know it, you can't miss the Kanonesteppel. A restaurant that you definitely have to recommend! 🍏🍽️🍻

Unfortunately we waited 1.5 hours for the food :-(

We, a group of Sachsenhausen school friends, meet there almost every Friday for fish dinner. Speaks for itself.

Traditional German food place, we tried the knuckle and the cider, everything was spectacular. The portions were substantial. The entrance is amazing, with small glass spaces for large groups. We will return for sure!!

Empfehlenswert Ich hatte das Vergnügen, kürzlich in einem hervorragenden Restaurant in Frankfurt zu speisen, das sich auf deutsche Küche spezialisiert hat. Von dem Moment an, als ich das Restaurant betrat, wurde ich von der netten und freundlichen Bedienung herzlich empfangen. Das Essen war einfach fantastisch! Besonders empfehlenswert sind die traditionellen deutschen Spezialitäten. Ich kann dieses Restaurant nur wärmstens empfehlen.

Great service and very delicious food! Next time I’m in Frankfurt, I won’t miss this.

Delicious homemade food and nice service. We'll be back!

A cozy Äppelwoi restaurant that leaves nothing to be desired.

Highly recommended! Great food, delicious Äppler, great atmosphere at Christmas time in the courtyard and very friendly and attentive service. We'd love to come back

Really a great concept with the glass houses. The food was very tasty, the mushroom schnitzel is highly recommended and the green sauce was a dream :)

highly recommended good price performance

Beautiful, rustic Äppelwoi economy. Delicious food and very friendly service. The small glass garden houses in the yard are a great idea. Very comfortable for a maximum of 8 people.

Rustic, authentically delicious Thanks for the great atmosphere ❣️

Nice restaurant and a nice garden to sit outside in summer. The food is also very tasty.

A real, rustic Frankfurt Apelwein restaurant. Well-kept cider. Good food. Only recommended. 👍👍😊

Food was good, except that the portions were different sizes 🤷‍♂️

It is probably recommended for people who love crowds. It was too crowded, too loud for us and what we wanted wasn't there anymore. My knuckle was too dry, the fried potatoes were delicious. Previously there was a salad that was a bit too salty. My drink wasn't available either and for a mezzo we received a bottle of Fanta and a bottle of Cola and had to mix it ourselves. All in all, I probably would have gone myself. But my companion wanted to stay.

Nice, very nice and pleasant atmosphere, food and service!!

And the schnitzels are still industrial products and no longer taste good. Too bad Probably the masses and lack of staff in the kitchen Too bad Will it ever get better again? We'll watch

We had a bit of bad luck in the evening because a very loud, VERY drunk group was sitting next to us (very beyond the normal I'm-just-drunk-and-a bit loud), but overall it's really great here, food is great, Great value for money, service really extremely friendly.

Friendly and quick service. Ambience typical of Frankfurt Abbelwoi pubs. Not fancy, but cozy and sociable. Overall, highly recommended!

2024 and credit card doesn't work?

Go there before a football game, always nice, quick service and the Äppler is tasty.

We came across the chicken schnitzel on Chicken Day, it was very good, I recommend it. The garden is also beautiful.

Honest, traditional Frankfurt pub.

Very good food, large portions, inexpensive and very friendly service

Wir waren hier mit Freunden und 2 yorkies. Die Bedienung war extrem freundlich. Die zwei Hunde wurden herzlich aufgenommen. Selten oder eigentlich noch nie, haben wir uns so wohl gefühlt . Das Essen kam schnell und war super lecker.. hier kommen wir wieder hin. Nochmal ein Danke an die super netten Mädels!!!!!!!!

Surprisingly cozy place the locals seem to love. Friendly to tourists with greet food.

Ich war seit längerer Zeit mal wieder in Frankfurt und wollte unbedingt eine alteingesessene Äppelwoi Wirtschaft besuchen. Gibt es im Norden ja nicht. Labskaus ist so gar nicht meine Welt. Aber das sei nur am Rande erwähnt. Ich liebe den Geruch von Rippchen mit Kraut. Die Wirtschaft ist groß und geräumig- damit also auch bestens für größere Gesellschaften geeignet- und dennoch sehr gemütlich- und existiert seit 116 Jahren. Einfach nur "urig". Wir wurden extrem freundlich begrüßt und bewirtet. Als "Vorspeise" gab es einen Traum von einem Handkäs'. Besser geht es nicht. Zum anschließenden Rippchen mit Kraut muß ich nicht viel schreiben: Fabelfaft wars. An dieser Stelle seien auch viele Grüße an Benny ausgerichtet, mit dem ich auf dem Innenhof kurz babbeln konnte ("schnacken", damit es die Norddeutschen verstehen). Wenn Apfelwein & Essen, dann Kanonesteppel! Fazit: Ganz klare Empfehlung von mir (10 von 5 Sternchen).

Back here after about 22 years. And it was just as beautiful. Super nice service, nice conversations with the people sitting next to you. And finally Handkäs and Äppelwoi again.

The place is good, the food, although we took advice, we did not like it, although perhaps we chose wrong (we have been here for a week and we have eaten much better). But the service was horrible, to begin with, they treated us with contempt, we only spoke Spanish and English and the waitresses didn't even speak English. They went from us to the level of having to go get the cutlery and plates, apart from the beers and apple wine, we asked for water and 5 glasses for water and they only brought 3 glasses, after asking for the 2 glasses that They were missing 5 times we continued without them. We didn't drink the water and they wanted to charge us for it. In short, horrible service. I don't understand that they put the plates and cutlery for the boys who shared a table with us and they will pass us by. Summary not to return

Super delicious food. Still raving about the homemade chocolate pudding 😍

Exactly the place you want to be when you’re visiting Frankfurt in the early fall. The apfelwein here is an absolute hit. Highly recommend. Goes nicely with the schnitzel & green sauce

Unfortunately, our visit to Kanonesteppel was quite a disappointment. Reserved 14 days in advance with the wish “outside in good weather”. We were placed inside. Nothing would be free outside. Others probably had more important reservations. At times the noise inside was so loud that it was really tiring to have a conversation. There is no beer on tap here. Only yeast wheat beer from the bottle. Cola and Fanta in mini bottles. Äppler is good. Medlar is more juice than Calvados and is also cheaper. The service forgot about us at times, so we sometimes sat there with empty glasses. The fried potatoes are very photogenic, but in the end they come out of the deep fryer and are not particularly crispy. The knuckle was in the oven too short. The meat is very firm, the crust is mostly soft. But the portion is very large. The carrot salad was forgotten in one of 8 salad bowls. You can only pay in cash. Unfortunately we won't be coming back... Sorry but that was nothing

Very good meal there. It's a shame there's no draft beer.

Delicious food and drink. Fast service and reasonable prices

Even though it was very full and we didn't have a reservation, the waitress found a place for us immediately and easily. Nice ambience in the backyard with shady trees, 2 warm blankets on each chair to sit softly or snuggle up in! The drinks came quickly, the food - simple and absolutely delicious - came soon after. Rarely have I had such a tender beef liver with fried potatoes, and a compliment for the salad. Our waitress was careful, attentive and quick, very pleasant. And the cider was fresh and tasty. The only drawback is that there are no separate areas for smokers and non-smokers. All in all, a lovely evening that we will definitely repeat.

The Kanonesteppel offers a good selection of Frankfurt specialties. Unfortunately, the service leaves a lot to be desired, especially when there is a lot of traffic. However, the atmosphere is cozy.

Great restaurant.. very good service and delicious food. It's really worth a visit.

The location is really great. Food selection good, quality could be a little better.

Basically a nice location. However, the staff sometimes takes a lot of time to bring the drinks you ordered (to the point of saying “oh, I guess I forgot”) 😉

Rustic and authentic. Casual and welcome. So we - a group of 14 people - spent a great evening and immediately felt at home in the beautiful courtyard under the plane tree. The drinks are on the table in no time, along with Frankfurt cuisine the way you like it. Everyone was thrilled and we will recommend you.

The green sauce was great, but schnitzel was deep fried and had a lot of oil on it, also was a little hard to cut and chew. Potatoes were also not Bratkartoffeln, but deep fried and were not the best. We also didn’t see anywhere that card payments are not possible, so we had to go to the atm in order to pay. It’s 2024 - hows that even possible? The place itself has a lovely terrace and the service was fast.

A pretty little place with some decent variety of meals, and of course apfelwein :)

Wonderful food, great service, lovely venue :-)

Very friendly, attentive, fast and German service. Price/performance is absolutely ok. There is plenty of seating outside. Fried potatoes come out of the deep fryer. Cider was at room temperature. Toilets dirty. The taste of the food was ok, but nothing special.

Service was very friendly, sometimes overwhelmed as there was a lot to do. Very nice atmosphere, typical Frankfurt backyard. Very nice.

Always nice and good that we made a reservation. Food was very good and the summer evening was perfect.

For me, this is the best hand-held cheese in town

A very friendly and competent service. The food was very tasty 😋.

Very nice apple wine tavern with a great idyllic courtyard. The food was excellent, the waiter was very friendly and in a good mood. A great place to stay in the summer and have a good time.

Super tasty, authentically Hessian

Cash only. Besides the fact that the restaurant is cash only, it was a very good experience to eat here. Simple and good, the staff is kind and nice. I would have given 5 to the service if they also accepted electronic payments like cards, PayPal, Satispay or whatever.

We were very satisfied. The food was very good and fresh, plentiful and also at a good price. We were in the courtyard, the atmosphere there was really nice and shady. The service class. We particularly liked the fact that we were addressed as “you,” even though we were 60, but that made everything really relaxed and made us feel even more comfortable. We will definitely be back!!!!

Este es un restaurante muy informal. Teníamos reservas, pero no estoy seguro de que sea necesario. Los asientos son de estilo banco. Teníamos vino de manzana, que era sabroso y refrescante. Yo tenía el jägerschnitzel y otros tenían otros schnitzels. Todos estábamos felices. Parecía que el personal era escaso, así que el servicio era un poco lento. Y solo aceptaron pagos en efectivo, lo que es una molestia sorprendentemente atrasada en muchos restaurantes alemanes

The food was really great, if you want to try some of the Frankfurt classics you've come to the right place. It was generally a bit noisy because it was full, but it was interesting that you were sitting in a backyard like that. However, you can only pay in cash there.
