You can either have a hearty meal at the Anker on the Main Bridge or treat yourself to some delicious cake in the café in front.
In summer, the "floating buttercup" blooms here on the Main.

When the water crowfoot blooms in summer, as here under the Main Bridge near Staffelstein, it's a sign of good water quality. It's a prerequisite for the aquatic plant to spread. There are apparently larger populations of water crowfoot along this stretch of the Main. The plant needs a gravel bed and a relatively moderate flow rate to thrive.The perennial plant, with its white-yellow flowers, gives a lot back to the river: It provides oxygen, a refuge for young fish, and food for insects like the rare demoiselle damselflies with their blue-black wings.
