Markt Cafe- Restaurant in Frankfurt am Main

A great way to take a break with small children. The indoor and outdoor play areas are fantastic! See for yourself. The staff was courteous and friendly when we visited (on a Sunday morning). It's clean and inviting. And most importantly, the kids had fun and were exhausted for the rest of the trip.

Contrary to the description, the rest stop and thus also the observation tower are only open until 7:00 PM. Closed unusually early for a rest stop.

We go there every now and then, especially when my husband needs his favorite sweets, because luckily they are available there at a normal price, thumbs up

Very good parking, with plenty of parking spaces for trucks. The restaurant (when open) is good. 🍔 Burger King available.

Even if we're just out for a Sunday stroll, we still stop at this rest stop. The view from the tower is always beautiful. The rest stop has a good selection of food and even a breakfast buffet.

A great place for a longer break. FREE large parking lot. Before entering, you declare on the monitor how long you want to stand (I stood for the weekend). You get a ticket and it says which row to stand in. You enter or enter the tower for free. Amazing views. Shop, restaurant, McDonald's, you know what the prices are... Shower 4€ but very clean.

Very good to order, but you have to know what you are going to eat before you pay. Here you have to pay before, not like in Sweden after you pick up the food, a bit complicated I think😀😎😻😍

A system for great... few of them

We filled up the tank here. Staff is super nice. Gladly again.

If you want to go to the observation tower, you're unfortunately out of luck... Closed.....

There is a large parking lot, you can collect water near the speakers. Shower €4, they give a token for 20 minutes. The shower is clean, there are no unpleasant smells. The staff is friendly. I recommend

Unfortunately the food was carnonara, horrible!

You should stop at this rest stop. In addition to the usual things, this gas station has a viewing tower. From there you have a good view of Frankfurt a.M. and the Taunus. The climb is free and there is also an elevator next to the stairs.

Very nice operator who stands behind the counter and sometimes exchanges a nice word with customers! Delicious snacks, large selection, not too expensive if you redeem the vouchers from the toilet visit. Love and beautiful accessories. Quiet atmosphere, nicely decorated. We would be happy to drive this route again.

The best thing is a viewing platform with a view of the Frankfurt skyline. Can be visited for free. Toilet costs one euro, but this is fully credited towards consumption. 12 minutes to the airport.

Very pleasant rest stop that has a completely adequate range of food. The staff is friendly, the toilets are clean, what more could you want? What is very positive is that there is never really much going on here. The highlight of the rest stop is the observation tower, from which you have a perfect view of the Frankfurt skyline.

Very nice market restaurant, with fresh baked goods. Also in the gas station shop outside of the restaurant's opening hours. Not as overpriced as some other rest stops/motorway gas station shops.

You park according to the time of movement, but there were two illiterate Poles in front of me who did not respect, be careful not to get stuck because of fools...

So far so good for a short break

Clean toilets. Friendly staff. Moderate rest stop prices.

one of the cleanest and well-maintained rest stops I've seen in a long time. The food in the restaurant is freshly prepared if you want.

Toilet was clean. Free observation tower with a view of the Taunus or the skyline of “Mainhatten”

A rest stop of my memories. I visited this place a lot when I sent my child to kindergarten and went to the academy. There is an observatory and now a Burger King.

Fantastic all the way. Like it a lot.

Large parking lot, but many drivers, not far away, do not understand that you need to park your car as the machine gives out on the ticket. Leave in the morning, that quest

It was always a great rest stop, but it has recently lost ground due to the deteriorating overall situation. Marchee has moved out, the elevator to the observation tower is out of service, and the grass is sprouting between the paving stones.

I've only been to Burger King. The food was fresh and tasty.

Has an LPG column that is not found in the fuel price apps.

clean rest area, fuel overpriced as at all rest areas

27.03.2025, Amazing piece of technology they have here :D 31 free spaces on the autobahn sign. I wanted to stay for 14h, message on the screen said parking is full so I wasn't allowed. Funny enough parking was half empty. Magic.

Yes, but could someone remove the high voltage pylon that is blocking the view of the panorama of Frankfurt from the observation tower? The thing wasn't there 20 years ago ;-)

Super delicious food and great breakfast, always friendly staff 👍

Observation tower with a great view of the Frankfurt skyline.

Large parking lot, everything clean, reasonable prices and a small children's playground.

On Friday, March 21, 2025, around 3:15 a.m., I went to the rest stop to ask whether there was a device to check tire air pressure. I walked in and said to the cashier in a nice tone, “Hey, do you have a tire inflation device?” He said “Hello”. To which I replied “Yes”. He repeated “Hello” again. I wasn’t sure whether he had understood me at first, so I replied “Hello”. Immediately afterward, he said in a bossy tone, “So, do YOU ​​have a tire inflation device?” Then he told me where it was. I said “bye” and left. It wasn't until I was outside that I realized what a ridiculous situation this was, and I regret being nice to the guy after what he said. But now I'm more wondering: Are we at a gas station or the Ritz Carlton?

Great view, once up the tower, it's 100% worth it

Everything is top toilets always clean on site the staff is always very friendly

Toilet dirty, paper wet and when I asked if the manager could come in, there was no response! Sorry, that doesn't work at all. Especially since reserved parking spaces for buses with garbage cans are blocked. Very bad here and expensive.

Unfortunately the observation tower was closed because the restaurant closes at 4 p.m. in winter. Welcome to Germany

We've been here for the third time now after reading the many positive reviews... but unfortunately in vain. Each time we found ourselves standing in front of locked doors, even though the times of day (between 4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.) were not unusual for a rest stop. That's probably not possible! The toilets were not very clean and the outdoor area near the parking spaces had the charm of a garbage dump. Unfortunately, we cannot understand the many positive reviews.

There is a large parking lot for Czezarowkas, the departure time is agreed, the restaurant and service are ok. Free parking!!

Actually, I always stop at this rest stop, but last Saturday the cleaner there was unfriendly. She left the door open and collected the money herself. When I then asked her for a receipt, she took an old, tattered receipt out of her bag for me.

Very good truck parking system. Good resting place.

Nice, large, clean showers for €4, open 24 hours a day. Very nice service. There is also a large parking lot for trucks.

Very organized parking. On the entrace you enter your pause time and it shows sou what row you should park in and what time will truck in front of you leave.

10/02/25 6 p.m. wants to park and says departure time is 7 a.m. There are no spaces, go to the next parking lot, and in fact, more than half of the square is empty. So I was the last one standing in just any paradise. I asked various drivers and they also had this problem. Sick system. They would have done it the hard way and the problem would have been solved.

Very nice parking lot for trucks, There is a restaurant, a shower and a great observation tower. I recommend

Nice place for some rest, with a watching tower - you can see FRA city skyline on one side and Taunus mountain on other.

I've been here before. And at different times of the day. But the observation tower was never open.

No, yes... In the event of an emergency, if a car catches fire, of course everything will be sad. At the barrier, you can choose not just how many hours to stand, but a specific date and time of departure (it will calculate the hours itself) so as not to make a mistake. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave earlier. The cars are parked very tightly, 4 in a row. On Friday at 18:30 there are still plenty of places. Approximately 60% clogged. Quiet. Far from the road. Shower and toilet are paid.

Café closes at 4 p.m., what a shame. But a perfect rest stop if you have a breakdown and need to be towed xD. Because the towing service can switch from one side of the road to the other, across the bridge. Conclusion: If there is a breakdown then stop here xD

The cheapest gas station on the highway that I know

Tragedy, half the parking lot is free and you won't get a ticket because idiots set it at 6 p.m. to start at 10-11 a.m., practically a lot of people did it Because of this, the machine told me to go to the next parking lot when there was plenty of space

Very, as fuel prices are always moderate and otherwise good service and very friendly staff

Very good place! Friendly staff, good food and drinks in one place! Bath excellent, quiet good safe truck parking. Fantastic!!👍

Generous parking lot for trucks, gas station. Serways, but unfortunately everything is dark

Large parking with an electronic system! There is a low observation tower!

I arrived in the evening, there were plenty of empty seats, but the terminal wrote that everything was occupied and required me to leave... I didn’t take the risk of breaking the break in the middle of the night and moved on.

Nice petrol station with Burger King and big parking for trucks !

Nasty dirty toilet. When I mentioned it to the service staff they just shrugged their shoulders. The restaurant already stinks and they charge 1 euro for that. Shameless, everyone please move on.

Great gas station before the airport if you have a rental car 🚗 get your gas there it is cheap.

Large parking lot. Shower €4. Nice view of Frankfurt from the tower, ability to leave the parking lot and many walking paths. One kilometer to public transport. One kilometer to the store. Parking cars in a columned parking lot is a problem. The driver in front of me is supposed to pick me up and that's how he set the system. This needs improvement.

Very comfortable and clean showers for €4.

Parking is convenient if you follow all instructions when registering. And so, at the entrance there is a monitor at the barrier, select the language, pause time (you can stand for 45 hours or more) and indicate what type of car you have. After registering, you will be given a ticket that shows your parking row. Shower - 4 WC - 1

Always happy to go there. One of the best rest stops in Germany. Always fresh food with a seasonal selection.

Terrible parking, there are 24 free spaces on the board, they set the time to defend 9 kU, and the iron security🤔 gave us, there are no spaces, the barrier opened, we made a lap of honor and the wanderers continued on in search of a better life😂

Comfortable, enough places. A nice view from the tower.

Sensational price-performance ratio, great construction, visually very appealing. Top!

Great free parking, clean bathrooms and showers. Nice view of Frankfurt.

Well maintained facility! Was there at night, so can't say much about the rest.

Greetings Primafrio 🔵🟡 Excellent free parking....When entering, indicate the type of vehicle and the hours needed for your rest... follow the row number indication and park closest to the vehicle in front if there is one (if there is not, always park in front as more vehicles will arrive after yours ( The ticket itself indicates the departure time (which may be extended a little to complete the rest period). Remember that the vehicle behind you, if there is one, will also leave after yours, so don't delay too much. At the end there is no need to validate or pay, just leave... Have a good trip and good miles

Clean facility and showers Large parking lot and friendly staff

Good concept with market hall, Burger King and viewing platform. However, the market hall closes early.

Parking lot very good, but also problems with the foreign drivers because they don't pay attention to entering the parking time correctly and this ends in chaos.

Rest stop. Everything clean. Large selection of supplies. But like at every rest stop... extremely expensive.

Today a man drove me out of the parking lot, woke me up, said that I can only stand for 4 hours, but where I stood there is no sign, let’s move on, we need a shower and a delicious lunch box to eat, but I won’t go to this place again 👎

After eight in the evening there is nothing to do here

Nice rest stop, I know, but not if there is a charge

Such a beautiful view of the Frankfurt skyline I can highly recommend the latte and the vanilla stick

You can fill up with gas, eat something, have teulettes and a high tower where you can see Frankfurt well

I stopped several times.. The first time I came in the evening and there were a lot of places, but the drivers are all reluctant to follow the order of the tickets and huddle in the corners so as not to be squeezed, the end result is a mess. It was late in the evening after 10 pm. The parking lot was full, but there was still the opportunity to spend the night along the gas station at the entrance, there are also small trees that are occupied by people passing through, but then they are free. If the unloading is in the A5 area in Frankfurt, then this is the best place to spend the night, I think that 45 kU can be defended well. The idea with the observation tower is very good.

A place for long walks. Perfect

Best rest stop I've seen so far, friendly staff, nice and clean, good view and delicious à la carte cuisine.

You fill the fuel yourself and pay internally. Don't think that the toilet is free just because you bought fuel, it is paid.

Everything would be ok if there was an additional toilet in the parking lot because there is no nearest one on CPN, paid 70 cents to do 1 you have to choose the bushes at night or go to CPN large parking lot food moderately shower 4 euros 20 min

Stars only for the number of free places for 🅿️ even in the evening and a clean, good shower. The idea of ​​parking one behind the other in quite narrow areas is bad, one poorly positioned vehicle is enough and everyone is standing there, there is no toilet in the parking lot, so even if someone is caught by a sudden two, before they come back... The entire surface is concrete, there is no shadow anywhere or even a bit of grass, there's not even a place to piss, it's a wonder he's not leaking urine yet... There is water and an observation deck at the station.

One of the best rest areas I've been to, the only thing is that the parking lot for trucks is a bit inconvenient because of the confusion about the exit time, it needs to be worked on already when it was built like that.

Very bad experience with Burger King and unclean toilets.

Good parking, you just need to indicate the departure time correctly and stand in your place as indicated on the ticket, here I met those who didn’t give a damn and then ran around wounded! I explained to them that they need to get up in their places, it’s hard to explain to stupid people... Personally, the first time I stood in a row, I indicated the time before check-in and set it correctly, the colleague in front of me is leaving half an hour earlier, there will be no problems with check-out! You can get water from the tire pumps! Good luck everyone!

Nice rest stop, we were satisfied

Also closed during the day. Very bad.

I was only in the toilet, which was very dirty... then I continued on

What you do at the rest stop. Everything in order, clean, well sorted and tidy

The restaurant is great 👍👍. Good offer at relatively moderate prices, the breakfast buffet for 13 euros is great. The most important thing last.... A really great service team that really cares about the guests and, despite a lot of stress, also fulfills special requests. It's certainly not the last time I've been here😎. Greetings from the pancake trucker 😁

The toilet is very dirty and there is a lot of garbage near the garbage cans. You can't park in this parking lot. It is dangerous in terms of hygiene. It is possible to become a victim of an epidemic!!!

Great view of Frankfurt from the tower

The idea of ​​a parking lot is good, but the stupidity of drivers knows no limits, no one pays attention to where they park

Gas station, shop, food and drink. It's all ok. Unfortunately I couldn't use the toilet. 70ct to be thrown in appropriately. I didn't. Then card payment. Show my debit card: The card is not accepted. Well thank you! Then on to the next rest town...

Clean, good offer, friendly staff, varied offer, prices are completely okay. The driveway to the parking lot itself was a bit confusing. I wasn't the only one who drove in the opposite direction. The police on site were very friendly and helpful, no punishment 👍🤩🤩🤩.

The view from the tower is just really beautiful. There is an elevator but you can also walk up the stairs if you want.
