Fritzenberger Is Caxton Street's New Frite-Focused Pub
And because fries are best with burgers and beer, it has a burger bar and a microbrewery too.
Whether you call them chips, fries or frites, there's something irresistible about warm, golden slivers of potato. We all know it's true. That's probably why Caxton Street's newest addition dedicates a big portion of their menu to them. You don't open a pub dedicated to frites and burgers without offering up plenty of everyone's favourite side dish, after all.
Revamping the space on the corner of Caxton Street that Casablanca's called home for 23 years, Fritzenberger Frites and Burger Brew Pub serves up exactly what its name suggests. Order up a batch, then visit the Fritzensalt station to shower them in all of the seasonings you can dream of, including Twisties-flavoured salt. Yes, really. Or, pick the loaded option stacked with candied bacon, cheese sauce, green onions and Fritzensauce. Anyone with a sweet tooth will then want to treat themselves to a dessert helping of sugar frites, made churro-style and topped with your choice or raspberry ketchup, hot chocolate or toffee sauce.
With ice cream burgers, iceberg lettuce wedges with blue cheese and croutons, and Fritzen wings also on the menu, it's safe to say that you won't find this selection at any old greasy spoon. And while Fritzenburger serves up yet another take on one of Brissie's most enduring trends (burgers, duh — available here in six different varieties), you don't hear the city's collective stomachs complaining.
With its own microbrewery on-site, the drinks side of the equation is also a huge drawcard (because every burger and fries combo tastes better when it's washed down with a beverage). Expect to enjoy plenty of house brews, and just a great vibe all round. Fritzenberger is the latest project from the bright minds behind Harajuku Gyoza, so they know a thing or two about mixing tasty food with brews.
