Overview
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 next addition is about to dedicate 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 will serve up exactly what its name suggests — and in several varieties. Rest assured, you won't find their selection at any old greasy spoon. Yes, it's another take on one of Brissie's most enduring trends (burgers, duh) — but hey, you don't hear the city's collective stomachs complaining.
With its own microbrewery on-site, the drinks side of the equation will also be 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.
Find Fritzenberger Frites and Burger Brew Pub at 52 Petrie Terrace, Brisbane City from early September. Keep an eye on their Facebook page for more details.
