Goose is easily one of my Frankfurt favorites (although no 5 stars... maybe one day). I go here…read moreoften because it is a short distance from my house and I love the scenery at the Palmengarten (I am reviewing their service at that location).
The service is friendly, although usually seems like it's in the weeds. I typically go here to write or gather inspiration for articles as I am a nature lover and like being amidst the gardens and flora.
Their waffles are top notch and I literally think they put something in them that has me craving them while just sitting at home doing nothing. They are SO dang good. They also serve good coffee (currently using beans roasted at Backyard) and some tasty wine.
My only complaint about Goose is that the service could really be better. I know they often get an influx from the elderly population perusing the Palmengarten, but it can often be a mess. Since I go here often, I know the times to hit it up for a smaller influx of people, but it still seems disorganized. Nevertheless, I forget about all of this once I take a bite of my salted caramel waffle and coffee.
I am not sure what is going on there with Sunday traffic lately. I went the other day and it was only for customers paying for Palmengarten. So, beware. Any other day of the week one does not need to pay to go here.
