Café Switch

Café Switch in the Nordend provides the neighbourhood café function for Frankfurt's queer community living north of the city centre. The format is café-bar: breakfasts and brunch in the morning, cocktails in the evening, with a social atmosphere that bridges the day and night scene. The Nordend is one of Frankfurt's most attractive residential neighbourhoods — street-level shops, tree-lined streets, and a density of cafes and restaurants — and Switch is embedded in this character rather than standing apart from it as a specifically gay venue. Regular community events include quiz nights, film evenings and benefit events. A quieter, more residential option than the Innenstadt bars.
