It's hard not to call this place 'Hans and Franz' Bierhaus, but whatever you call it, call it one of the most lively, entertaining spots in Coral Gables. A restaurant cum sports bar, Fritz and Franz Bierhaus prides itself on its 'oompah' atmosphere that promises pure fun. Waitresses in lederhosen evoke memories of the Sound of Music, as does the wood-paneling. An authentic 'Bierstube,' Fritz and Franz features a massive variety of Austrian and German brews; for those who buy only American, Buds are stocked. Fritz and Franz is filled with traditional beer steins, South German and Austrian artifacts and vintage tubas -- plus a wait staff that will occasionally break out in dance and song. An outdoor beer garden seats about 120 and caters to the still-smoking crowd. The food is basically the best of Austro-German cuisine, featuring schnitzel, wursts, sausages, roast chicken and, for the diet conscious, salads. In addition to Oktoberfest events, Fritz and Franz hosts a three day blues fest in February, live jazz nights and assorted fundraising events. Happy hour, in particular, is a wild 'oompahlicious' affair.
