ORBIS city intelligence
Buying a gift becomes easier when you know how its recipient will use it. A coffee drinker's brewing method matters more than an impressive bag, while a reader's interests can lead you beyond the familiar travel souvenir. These three Frankfurt shops offer different ways to make that choice. Start with the person you are buying for and leave room to change your mind after browsing.
Wacker's Kaffee offers single-origin coffees and blends, with selections organised by brewing methodS1. The Stammhaus is at Kornmarkt 9. Its roasting operation is separately located in Fechenheim, so the retail visit need not become a journey to the roasteryS2.
Bitter & Zart lists its shop at Braubachstraße 14. Its categories include pralines and chocolate bars, with liquorice offering another direction for a giftS3. Start by deciding if you want a mixed box to share or a small number of pieces selected for a particular person.
Buchhandlung Weltenleser, at Oeder Weg 40, arranges books by continents and countries rather than only by conventional genres. Its selection brings fiction and travel literature into that geographical approachS4. A country you have visited, or hope to visit, gives you a practical starting point for browsing.
