The Tiny Cup

Atmosphere: 5/10 Located near Frankfurt’s Old Town (Altstadt), Tiny Cup might be the smallest bar in Germany—just 4 sqm tucked into a narrow riverside building on Mainkai. In summer, the bar doesn’t open at all; drinks are served only outside by the river, with no seating and no entry allowed. No backbar, no music (until later), and no option to go inside even when asked. In winter, the tiny space opens with a more classic setup. Drinks: 7.5/10 Recommendation: - Drinks are very light—some of the lightest I’ve ever had. Once the ice melts, they taste more like flavored water. Menu is creative and based on classic German ice cream desserts. Everything is premixed—no shaking, no stirring. Nice coasters, average glassware, clean garnish and presentation. Service: 5.5/10 No reservation required in summer, but in winter highly recommended (if you want to sip inside). Water is served on arrival. Staff wasn’t friendly—partially rude. No real opinion on bartender skill since nothing is made fresh. Prices are average for Frankfurt.

This is a nice place to have very good cocktails and relax after a hard shopping day. Thank you.

Very friendly service. Drinks are unique and excellent. Nice cozy atmosphere. Was wondering at door and not sure if it is the tiny bar as the sign only indicates seven swan. Luckily, we did not miss this bar. It is an impressive experience in Frankfurt.

This is a perfect little craft cocktail bar with amazing staff. The guys could not be more welcoming. Not only were the drinks superb, but the guys provided thoughtful recommendations for other cafes/bars in Frankfurt (that all turned out to be great as well!). We had an absolutely wonderful evening at The Tiny Cup.

Thanks for the great cocktail experience, Sven and team!

My partner and I stumbled upon this place while walking around Frankfurt on a Friday evening. We had a great time and I cannot recommend it enough. The service was incredibly friendly, the cocktails were excellent, and the atmosphere was welcoming and very laidback. We had a couple rounds of drinks out front and the bartenders are highly adept and both the classics and their own list of cocktails. However, I highly recommend grabbing a cocktail off of their seasonally curated menu. If you are out and about in Frankfurt, run don’t walk to this bar.

Wow! What an amazing place. It is VERY small but we lucked out by having a table right by thr bar. Our bartender was a genius cocktail master. He created drinks we've never imagined or tried before. He also gave us some tasters from leftover creations. Such a cool and inviting atmosphere. We loved it!!

Best bar in Frankfurt. Really small but excellent cocktails and lovely people.
