What's Beef in Frankfurt am Main

A tasty burger in a decidedly fast-food setting. Ordering at the counter is mandatory, just like in a fast-food restaurant. The quality far surpasses their usual fare, but so does the price. One would expect a more pleasant atmosphere.

Located in the heart of Frankfurt and simply delicious. I often go there with my colleagues during our lunch break and it's always fantastic.

In my opinion, they have the best milkshakes in all of Frankfurt and some of the best burgers.

We went here for dinner on a Sunday evening around 5:30 pm. It wasn't very busy at first, but the restaurant gradually filled up. The menu mainly consists of beef burger variations. They looked good. I had a chicken burger, which was well-prepared. The fries I ordered with it were the best I've had in years – flavorful and perfectly crispy. Including a Sprite, I paid €23. The strawberry soda wasn't very popular at the table. My only criticisms were the ordering process at the counter and the way the food was brought to me using a waiting number. They could be more efficient in these areas. Overall, I was impressed with the restaurant and would recommend it and eat there again.

The FAQs do mention Halal/Kosher, but the answer "Just ask at the checkout" completely misses the point of an FAQ. You don't travel all the way to Frankfurt just to ask such a simple question 🤦🏻‍♂️

Delicious food, a pleasant atmosphere, and good music

Very nicely decorated and the food is delicious....

Great burgers, very kind service and super clean! 10/10 🍔👌🏼

Best burger we have eaten in Germany

Overall, it was good. The burger patty was a bit salty, but the sweet potato fries were tasty. I didn't order the signature milkshake, as it looked a bit sweet. This place is considered to have a strong flavor profile.

Amazing service. There's a guy there walking around talking to customers when they enter and he's super nice. I struggle hearing people, as well as anxiety, so when he talked to me, i just kinda stared empty. He then talked to me in English, thinking i dont speak german, I do. But that was great service, I have to admit. 10/10. I'm much better at conversing in English. Got a chicken barbecue burger and sweet potato fries. Laying in bed now months later I'm still thinking about it. It was that good.

Yesterday I visited What's Beef in Frankfurt for the first time – a cozy spot with a modern atmosphere, somewhat tucked away on a side street between Willy-Brandt-Platz and the Römer. I had the BBQ Fabulous with smoked cheese, dry-aged beef bacon, onion rings, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, onions, chipotle mayo, and BBQ sauce – incredibly delicious, very good to eat. The BBQ sauce was extremely good! The fries came in generous portions, and you could help yourself to more mayo and ketchup (as well as jalapeños or pickled peppers) at the counter. The service was fast, and the wait time was pleasantly short. The restaurant focuses on fresh, high-quality ingredients (e.g., the meat is locally sourced, the buns are baked on-site). And somehow, you can taste it! Overall: A very good place for burger lovers – I definitely recommend it.

I love this place, i can say that nearly best burger I ve ever had within Frankfurt. Also Milkshake!!! Wow

The waiter was unmotivated, and we waited 50 minutes for our food...

Delicious burgers, tasty cheesy fries and a beautiful location!

Very tasty burgers. Delicious cocktail. Fast. Cool atmosphere.

Visited with children for dinner. Very child-friendly service, the kids loved the food. We especially liked the sweet potato fries with truffle mayo and the milkshakes. We'd love to come back!

Very nice atmosphere. I had a wonderful birthday there.

It was really delicious. I chose the largest menu item, and it was the most filling burger I've had in a long time :)

The burgers are perfectly cooked, the buns are nice and soft, and the sauces add just the right amount of flavor. A place where you simply love to eat!

Delicious burgers, fries and lemonade 😋👍👍

Super delicious burgers, fries, and drinks! The staff was very friendly and the milkshakes were super tasty ☺️👍

The burger and fries were delicious. Unfortunately, there's no table service. You order at a counter near the entrance. The room is unfortunately very noisy, partly due to the music and the customers. However, the interior is inviting.

Really good staff Really delicious food Shake especially 😋

The food was great! The milkshakes not only look good, they taste great too. The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is truly unique.

I've never been to this restaurant, but it was absolutely devastating. The finest burgers guaranteed to clog your veins, plus the shakes from hell for instant diabetes. Overall, a great atmosphere and amazing taste. I highly recommend it.

Vacationing from the USA. Decided to see what the German take on american food was. Got an old menu with an 'Oklahoma smash burger' on it. They said they could still make it, so I got that (being from Oklahoma, I had to - it's probably the law). The burgers were great. Big, messy, and greasy. Perfect. The chili cheese fries had jalapeños and corn chili with beans . . . not exactly authentic, but it's their take on the theme. We still loved it. Lemonade was good, and served in a mason jar mug like i would do at home. Good work. Wish I knew how to post a Pic.

The best burger that l have ever eaten!! Strongly recommended!!

Honestly, if you're looking for a burger with fries in Frankfurt and you come here, you've hit the jackpot! Truly delicious, and the beef bacon is a dream! You can always complain, but here it's really hard to find something you don't like! Delicious, and I'll be back next time!

Trully lovely place with delicious good, friendly and entertaining staff

The place is simply amazing, the staff is cool and very friendly, the menu is varied, and the food is incredibly good. We all commented, "This is the best burger and milkshake in Frankfurt." HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I didn't get to eat there because I had to go somewhere else, but as I passed by during lunch time, it looked like a popular restaurant with lots of people.

Amazing food, amazing service. Definitely one of the best burgers in town!

Delicious milkshake and burger, so delicious that I forgot to take a picture...

Such a good restaurant!! Delicious food, friendly staff, and a very cool atmosphere!! Highly recommended!

Best smash burger in Town! Definitely recommend it! Nice staff as well. Prices a bit high, but worth it.

It looks so amazing in there and the food was delicious too.

Great place Great shakes Everything was good

Very good burgers. Friendly service, albeit with a few minor hiccups. Overall, though, great. I'd gladly go back.

The hamburger is very good. The hamburger is very good.

The food was very tasty. Highly recommended.

No appropriate, animal-friendly, and healthy options. The liquid causes illnesses, and the product causes the illness. Based on this... the atmosphere is extremely unpleasant for compassionate, informed, and health-conscious people. The company blocks any valid criticism.

The review isn't fake. I've been there several times, and each time it's been a 9.5/10. As an American restaurant, it's an absolute must! The burgers are super juicy and spicy, super tasty, and also prepared pretty quickly. The fries are also well salted, but not too much. There's a stand where you can get all sorts of little add-ons like ketchup, mayo, pickles, toothpicks, etc. for free. I can also highly recommend the homemade lemonade. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to try the delicious shakes yet; I'd need a second person to help me 😂 All I know is that they make everything from scratch, from batter to brownies, etc. for the shakes. Not everyone does that.

Very cool place and the staff were accommodating. I’ve had many burgers and this one was absolutely top notch.

Nice student discount -The burgers were alright. Tasted like someone I would make myself at home. Cannot compare to Hanskaschber at all! But these have to the best sweet potato fries I've ever eaten. Smart idea to salt sweet potato fries

Very nice restaurant, the food is amazing 😋

The burgers are amazing 🔥 and the beer is good 👍

Good burgers but unfortunately no real bacon. Only beef bacon.

Delicious food, unusual burger creations, simply a cozy place.

Really great burgers in a cool atmosphere! Not exactly cheap, and sometimes self-service, but the smashed burgers are fantastic!

Your people who work in the kitchen and make burgers are not behaving properly, they are behaving very badly.😌

Amazing food and atmosphere. The shakes are sooooooo great 😋

Simply fantastic! First time there and absolutely thrilled! Exceptional atmosphere, super juicy, delicious burgers! Thank you so much! Highly recommended!

The food is expensive and not outstanding. Solid value for a burger and sweet potato fries. Self-service.

The burger was delicious, the staff was friendly and helpful....The toilet was very clean so everything was fine...

Very good burgers, lots of choices, including fries and toppings. However, the menu is only available in English. The shakes are amazing! As filling as a full meal. I'd definitely go back!

Thank you Mr. Selim for the nice atmosphere and delicious hamburger. We will definitely be back every time we visit Frankfurt.

Great Hamburger I loved my huge milkshake. The place is also very nice decorated

The food is highly recommended. However, the ambiance and the high noise level in the room don't qualify for a 5-star rating.

Very friendly lady who took our order very friendly then we waited for our delicious order and we left the store happy and can recommend it to everyone

Excellent burger joint. The meat is excellent, even the one for the kids' menu. The atmosphere is pleasant, both inside and out. They were quite quick to prepare what we requested. We'll definitely be back!!

For 35 Euros you get a Burger and a pan full of fries/milkshake + a Redbull but the taste is just ok, nothing special for that price, there are alot burgerplaces where you can eat way better burgers for less or the same price

Nice burger. Shocking service and prices

The food was spot on. Great selection of burgers, sides, and shakes on offer at very good prices. Lunchtime deal meant a drink and side cost only slightly more than a burger on its own. The servers and cooks were great, played quite loud music that wouldn't be to everyone's taste (derogatory terms, explicit language)

Great Burgers and they finally accept credit cards.

By far the best burger I've ever eaten. A bit pricey, but justified these days.

A solid burger joint with a good selection and friendly service. The ambiance isn't entirely my cup of tea, but it's not bad at all, since aesthetics are in the eye of the beholder. I'd be happy to come back again.

We wanted to try Whtsbf again after a while because we heard they also offer a low-carb version of the burgers. They replace the bun with lettuce. What we got for our money was a joke. They came with two lettuce leaves. Never again for us.

Overall, it was unfortunately worse than expected. The burgers were quite good, but the cheese fries were nothing special. Combined with the high prices for a self-service restaurant and the long wait times when ordering, it's not really recommended.

One of the best burgers I’ve ever had!

Nothing special . Burger ordinary.

No comment required. It's just perfect.

Did not inform enough that they are no longer halal, I think it is a shame

Everything fits 🤩👍🏻👏🏼 Food, ambience, music 🎶

The food itself is good, but the ordering process could be improved. You have to order directly at the cashier and pay immediately. However, when the place is busy, the whole process can take a while. It's annoying if you want to get another drink, so you have to queue up again. 😄

Excellent vegan options. Be careful, if you order fries, the mayo isn't vegan, but if you ask, they'll give it to you. The waiter was very kind and brought it to us.

I came, I saw, I ate, I recommend it, it is stylish and clean inside, we waited a little but it was worth it.

Large hall inside with various tables and chairs. Large terrace outside. You can eat during the day when in other restaurants the kitchen is closed and you can only buy drinks. They make delicious sweet potato fries

Lots of burger options plus more. The location is also on a nice calm square. Food arrived quickly and was really good.

Our burgers were great! Portion of fries was massive and the lemonade was amazing. You order and pay first and the cashier was nice. All in all a good experience.

The food was delicious and the selection was really large, with something for vegans and vegetarians too. We particularly liked the many sauce options and the extensive dessert menu with various milkshakes. The outdoor area is beautifully designed, and the interior is cool and retro-styled. The food was brought quickly and directly to our tables, and the staff was consistently friendly. The prices are absolutely reasonable for Frankfurt standards, but still seem a bit high. The burger may not have been the best in all of Frankfurt, but it was definitely very good, and the overall experience was excellent. We'd be happy to come back.

Selim's ABC, Criss cross fries, lemonade. With the student discount, you can get this for €14.50. Open 11:30-18:00, not available on holidays. The price and taste were both excellent. If I hadn't gotten the student discount, I could have only had one burger, so I'm grateful. It's salty, but that's part of the fun of a burger.

Tastefully and and well made burgers and friendly staff.

Delicious! And if you go early, the menu is worth it.

We went there as a group, but unfortunately, I personally didn't enjoy it. The crispy fries made up for it somewhat. The burgers are very pink, not a particularly pleasant medium-rare.

Best burger and shake we’ve had in a long time.

Very very good and delicious!!!

Just saying wow for everything!!!!

This is right up there with the best burger Ive ever eaten. The fries were also right up there too. If you love burgers you will not be disappointed

Best burger and cheesecake I've ever had! Anyone who doesn't love this place has no idea. I'll be back❤️ Keep up the good work!

Although the restaurant is in Frankfurt city center, it is placed in a very quiet area, where you can enjoy your food. The hamburger are really good. Plus you can take as many pickles as you want. Ketchup and Mayo are also free. The price is averaged, about 15€ per hamburger. It is cheaper if you go at lunch. Very recommended.

We were looking for a good burger joint, and what can I say? This burger joint isn't just good; it's perfect! Everything was perfect, from the lunch menu to the ambiance.

In the middle of Frankfurt's concrete isolation, this burger joint shines like a circus tent in a pedestrian zone. Inside, red bricks gleam, colorful pictures hang on the walls, and the wall display features busts of Churchill with a mohawk, Biggie Smalls in gold, and a hodgepodge of other things that are presumably meant to be profound. Unfortunately, the burger was a kind of dry disappointment in a bun. There were four of us; sometimes there was too much salad, sometimes too dry, and always somehow not entirely well thought out. The taste was somewhere between fast-food student fare and "as long as it's fancy." I had the barbecue burger, which certainly won't hurt anyone.

Great burger restaurant in Frankfurt's financial center

We enjoyed eating there. We were able to reserve a table for Saturday at 7:30 PM. We had already received confirmation by email. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the place was closed. At first, we thought we'd gone to the wrong place, but after checking several times, we found the right place. It's a shame, but maybe it'll work next time.

Great atmosphere , great food and hospitality.

Definitely worth a visit for the delicious burgers and desserts. The truffle fries are incredibly delicious, but also steep at €19.

Very good burgers, even the vegan one is perfect. The fries are at least as good as the McDonald's... In the afternoon it is not crowded, the food arrives quickly. The lemonade also nice and daily offer is very affordable.

Excellent burgers and fries! Not too cheap, but the quality is top-notch

Interesting concept: you choose your food and drink preferences, order inside, and pay right away. Your order is brought to your table. Unfortunately, no one came to clear the table, which I found disappointing. I would have at least expected this level of service, not sitting in front of an empty plate the whole time. Reordering is probably not encouraged. The burger was large and tasted okay, nothing exceptional. I had a burger with avocado. Ketchup and mayo were running out of the burger. I saw the avocado, but unfortunately, I didn't taste it. The shakes look amazing and filling. We wanted to try one after dinner, but as I said, a cleared table would have been more encouraging. Why tip for lousy service?
