Fritz

Decent cocktails and atmosphere, small spot. Good for a pre- or post-dinner drink in the area.

The martinis are other worldly! So crisp and cold. Love that you get a little refill portion (on ice!) and the olives and lemon twist on the side are delightful. The place is super cute. It was kind of raining but we still got to be in their partially indoor/outdoor space which is a huge bonus. The service was amazing. She took really good care of us. My only complaint is that there’s not a single substantial vegan item on the menu and I would’ve liked to grab a nibble while there. However the place is so cute and the drinks were so good, I was still very very happy! Oh also, any place that puts the “vacant/occupied” locks on their bathroom doors is really doing it right. Love it.

Great addition to the neighborhood! $10 cocktails and $5 beers til 6 🍻 The schnickelfritz mezcal swizzle is a must. Highly recommend the meatball sliders.

My partner and I hosted >80 guests at Fritz for a cocktail party on the night before our wedding. Everything was excellent! The event manager, Samantha, and her team made sure everything ran smoothly. We did not have any of the service issues mentioned in some of the other reviews---just the opposite in fact! Drinks were flowing and the food kept coming all night. Would absolutely recommend Fritz for a full buyout for a party of this size.

Ten dollar happy hour drinks can't be beat. Great vibes, ice cold martini (they chill the glass so you know they know what's up). And they open early so you can stop in as the first drink of the evening

Terrible service. The entire place had 12 people and there were 4 people behind the bar but none seemed to want to be there or help any of the clientele. I’d understand if I was in the back patio or a table but we were literally sitting at the bar. I made eye contact with all of them. One was just folding napkins and I had to ask her if they they were closed to get a response. They seemed annoyed to be asked to take an order. 15 minutes passed so we just asked for the check so we could leave. I guess it’s a better happy hour spot or something but wouldn’t recommend for a night time place

Update: went back couple of days back. It still has the same great vibe. Had a FRITZ FATALE. Good drink. Spirit forward. My friend had the Eldorado and liked it. She said it was along the lines of margarita in taste. We also had the artichoke dip which was good. Most cocktails are still $16, which is a pretty good these days ______________ Super cool spot with a cool back patio. Late night vibe was great..the service top notch. Our bar tender Alex was super nice and helped us choose the cocktails and made an off menu one as well. Lots of interesting art and knick knacks on the shelves. Definitely going back

Great drinks - very strong (in a welcome, good way). Appreciative of the menu with little bites. Solid date spot. Ps they allow dogs on their back patio.

A solid cocktail bar with a menu that changes with the seasons. I have not eaten here but do appreciate that they have a cozy inside as well as a fun outdoor space. Nothing earth shattering, but if you're looking to grab a drink or two, it is a great place to check out.

I dont know how to feel about this place . The location? Its perfect for a date night where you just wanna have good conversation and a good drink . But besides the drink I mean I cant really say I enjoy anything else . For 1 the manager or whoever she is can be quite rude . I got there when there was a big party in the back room, but nonetheless they weren't the issue- it was more the service . I ordered oysters, whoeever shucked them left tons of shell. The dont have any real pairings for them so they gave me hot sauce , when i asked for horseradish she said she would be back, she clearly forgot because she never came back to even say if whether or not they had until I called on her AGAIN to order the charcuterie board . By the way , dont order the charcuterie board . Its literally a plate full of meat . No cheeses, no jelly, and the "bread" are sesame seed crackers that compared to cardboard, the cardboard tastes better ... did I mention they filled the plate with a bunch of green grapes . I was very disappointed to say the least . My fritz cocktail however was good , his old fashioned wasnt balanced . So thats that.

They have a great happy hour until 6pm and this is a terrific place to meet a friend. I love the environment, it's very comfortable and intimate but it's also upscale.

Quick drink at this cocktail bar as we were already in the area. To be completely fair this was not my first drink of the night and I got the Astoria. It was strong but a good option if you don't want a classic martini or the brininess of a dirty. Bar filled out during the time we were there so am curious as to what the vibe is a bit later in the evening.

Avoid for any celebration or larger gatherings /birthdays: I was part of an early evening group booking from 5-8pm and we were treated like we were cockroaches in a kitchen. I am almost certain they did not serve us the full charcuterie or cheese board - it arrived on a small porcelain plate with a massive bunch of grapes, some little chunks of smoked Gouda and a couple of slabs of Brie. 'Charcuterie board' was the same.. like guys. A tiny plate of mostly grapes and some store bought cold cuts was not it. The group I was part of was a pretty high level crowd of creators and writers, all very chill and friendly, it was the early evening and we were constantly being told off by the host like school children. There was another booking from 7pm nearby and it felt like people who were not even there were getting better treatment than us! My friend who was hosting was embarrassed by this poor service and so was I.

Love love love! Came here for happy hour. Place is lovely & service is excellent. Drinks were excellent. Oysters were fresh with delicious sauces. I just love the place and the vibe there. Just come!!

Had the best espresso martini and some bites here. The vibe is chill and quiet enough to hold a conversation. Good service! The location is convenient and there is ample seating available. Didn't care much for the zucchini schnitzel bites, but liked the deviled eggs and artichoke dip. Nicely priced happy hour.

Very cool spot. Popped in here before dinner and ordered drinks that did not disappoint. Cool menu and served in aesthetically pleasing ways. Bar staff super friendly. Sat at the bar which would highly recommend if just coming for drinks. It looks like the people working here have fun.

Dropped in for a couple of drinks after an early meal. Really interesting cocktails and friendly and knowledgeable bartenders. Very comfortable.

Great spot. The Berlin theme is cozy and inviting. Great cocktails and bites and the service is always on point. .

Very well put together space, nice color palettes, sophisticated but not in an intimidating way, cool vibes, great hip hop classics playlist, clean space, with a nice back yard patio. Bar has about ten seats or so, and it was cool to sit at the bar and watch the bartender create and be in her element. There are a few high top tables, some regular seating in the back space, and then an outside patio area as well. It's a petite space but they fit quite a bit into it. I liked the menu options, though we were only there for drinks. We couldn't help ourselves so ordered the deviled eggs and oysters, and wasn't disappointed. We will be back. Bartender was awesome - didn't catch her name but did learn she was from Scranton and she had the nicest personality and makes a great drink- so shout out to you if you're the bartender! Thanks for the hospitality! See you soon.

Loved this space. Really Surprised by the poor review/lack of reviews. yummy drinks (get the martini, its like 2 drinks in one with a beautiful presentation), food is solid (deviled eggs were yummy and love the caviar touches on everything). most importantly-- super accommodating of dogs-- excellent business decision in super-dog-friendly Fort Greene. They're still new and have some kinks to iron out (the paper tablecloths on slatted tables out back were a bit annoying) and service is a little spotty (but chill out and embrace the slower pace, and you'll be fine). I'll be back for round 2 on Thursday with my doggo! updating to reflect a 2nd visit on 6/8: service is still pretty clumsy (sat at the bar, waiting a realllllly long time for 1st round of drinks) and some weird stuff happening (construction crews walking through on a Thursday night?!). drinks are still yummy, service is friendly, space is beautiful. I really hope y'all iron out the kinks so I can feel more excited to make this a neighborhood staple!

I had a very similar experience to T.F. as it relates to the service. I waited for over 10 minutes to be asked what I wanted to order and the bar was nowhere near to being packed...mind you, I was sitting at the bar. I simply got up and left without even placing my order. The other note I want to add is the limited ingredients. As one who frequents cocktail bars, they're really limiting to their cocktail ingredients. I'm leaving a 3 stars because the employees were nice and the ambiance is beautiful. But when it comes to the basics in terms of managing their customers in a timely manner, this needs tons of work. Same exact experience I had when they were the pizza spot.

Great atmosphere, good drinks. Just needs some more classic cocktails on the menu too, and some egg white cocktails. Bartender was friendly and helpful.

I was excited about this place but was sorely disappointed. If you bill yourself as a cocktail bar, you better have more than 9 house recipes. They had about the same amount when it was a pizza place. It's early days but the waitstaff needs serious improvement in terms of speed and communication. No strong reasons to return. Lower your expectations.
