Fritz Bar + Restaurant
We are known for our fun dining atmosphere. We recommending ordering many small share plates to get a taste of everything, all while enjoying a Heady Topper or craft cocktail, mixed with finest distilled liquors.
For holidays, we often put together special tasting menus with multiple courses and a more formal feel to celebrate the occasion. During these times we do limit our regular dinner menu. Please give us a call or visit our website for more information.
Was a great experience,staff was very pleasant and attentive.
Great little on-site restaurant. Limited menu, I assume due to Covid, but the food was delicious. Cozy pub atmosphere.
Really great food!
This place has European ambiance and style to spare.
Perfect ambiance for a ski weekend dinner, everything from the old Vermont Inn feel to the fondue was perfect! Wonderful night in Stowe.
We picked Fritz due to the proximity to our condo, reviewing the menu & reading other reviews. For the most part, we were not disappointed. Situated in the basement of a hotel, the restaurant had a cozy interior. Service was exemplary. We shared 2 appetizers a warm brown bread that was bursting with flavor We also shared a pickled sausage, egg, & pickle tray - great bar food! Both of us tried the pork schnitzel & we were a little disappointed. We were served a very thin (possibly machine pressed) breaded schnitzel that was quite bland and a little dry. Once cut up though & mixed with the red cabbage & spaetzel, it was much improved.
That being said I would come back & recommend Fritz to anyone looking for a good after ski dinner. Also try the spicy margarita!!
Wonderful food and service
We loved it
Such great food! Super cozy bar area. Only issue was the chlorine smell from the hotel WHEN we walked in, we couldn’t smell it while in restaurant. The food was amazing, hidden gem!
Cute hotel and cozy atmosphere. Friendly but somewhat indifferent service. Would try again, but not a knock out experience.
Only pasta...
Cozy, warm and friendly with consistently good comfort food. Our go-to spot for a satisfying dinner after hitting the slopes all day.
Absolutely fantastic! Great location in the Stowehof and charming ambiance. Service was quick and food was delicious!
This place had good food and we sat next to. A beautiful roaring fire which made me happy.
Excellent dinner! We had austrian classics -- bratwurts and schnitzel. Food was very tasty.
This is one of our favorite places in Vermont. Such a lovely spot, with history and charm all around. I would only ask..if you book a table during a holiday period....Don't cancel last minute if you can help it. These establishments depend on our support during these difficult days ahead. They're already at reduced capacity. Your cancelled table went empty. And, when you do go, tip your server, generously. Lets work together to get through this tough time. Hope we can all celebrate at a restaurant when we are covid free. It should be so. Be well. Stay safe.
Always love the Fritz! The staff is great, the drinks and food always delicious!
Food was good but few choices. Cheeseburger was very good as was the bar selections. Very nice servers.
Nice atmosphere. Limited quick bite type of menu. Food was good. Great friendly service.
We dine here every time we stay at The Stowehof, and it’s just the best! The food is always flavorful and delicious, the service is quick, and the staff are beyond friendly. One bartender, Dave, is a big reason we come back every year. We just got home today and already can’t wait to be back again!😊
It was a great spot to swing in and enjoy the views and food.
Great food. Great ambience. None of the apres ski noise/sports bar feel of other places.
Fun food in an terrific atmosphere. The ‘ new girl’ was our waitress - I only know this because other patrons bemoaned this fact when they saw her. Was she a poor server? Well maybe understanding that the bill came to over 120 dollars. Yes I want a glass with my beer, yes I need a refill... One obvious regular waited for a good 10 min at the bar and eventually just went behind the bar and grabbed himself a menu. The high stars are for the food and atmosphere.
Great retro vibes at the Stowehof - food is very good, ambience and service are perfect for a low key, fun apres dinner. We come here often and are never disappointed.
Cozy, comfortable, great food, people and service. Located in the Stowehof, its a perfect place to unwind after a day on the slopes.
Love it! A hidden gem in Stowe.
TERRIBLE. We arrived at 7:10 for our 7:15 reservation. Upon arrival, nobody greeted or even acknowledged us for another 10 minutes. When we finally flagged someone down, we were told that they were short staffed and would get to us as soon as possible.
25 minutes later, we were seated. An hour and a half after that, we received our appetizers (cold). Another 30 minutes went by and we got our food; not one of us enjoyed our meal. The burger was chewy and, the salmon had no flavor, the pork chop was overcooked, the ragout was bland.
The bill was over $200 for the worst meal of our entire trip (and possibly beyond).
Stowe has MANY incredible dining options. Do. Not. Waste. Your. Money.
Server was great. We had three little boys with us and they accommodated us. The food was very good comfort type food in a nice rustic location. Next time we are there we will take a slay ride
Wonderful New Year's Eve dinner for our family. The restaurant has a great vibe and our teenagers loved it. Many cozy fireplaces and sitting areas - perfect apres ski spot
Menu is quite limited but service is excellent and so is the food. They can also whip up simple things like buttered noodles for kids even though there is no official
Kids menu. Lovely ambience with huge windows and a roaring fireplace, perfect place for apres ski dinner
We had a nice dinner with our party of four. We had wine and dinner then went out to partake in the Marshmallows and the fire pit. Unfortunately they didn’t have any chocolate For s’mores. Really??? Who runs out of chocolate for s’mores!!?!!!
Great place to have a quiet evening of good food, company & drink!
Went here expecting great things after reading all the good reviews. It was disappointing experience and we ended up only having a cocktail and appetizer (pretzel). Pretzel was good but overpriced for what you get. Atmosphere felt stale.
Gnocchis dish was too small for an entree, at 22 dollars I would expect double the pasta, and the steak came out undercooked and ended up over cook after we sent it back. However, the staff did halve the price of the pasta and flat-iron steak. Would not come back. Staff was very hospitable and understanding.
Love this place. Laid-back, great food and service.
The atmosphere, service and friendliness of the staff at Fritz Bar and Restaurant was second to none! We loved it there. I could not understand the rating OpenTable was asking for noise level. My noise level mark should indicate that the noise level was fine. It was quiet and pleasant.
Never tasted the food because the service was so poor. We left after waiting 30 minutes for drinks, and after watching a table of 4 and a table of 2 leave due to lack of service. What is worse, two general managers were there, received their food and drinks, and did nothing to intervene. I cannot recommend this restaurant as there are too many excellent restaurants in Stowe that value service and great food.
Nice place. Very cozy. The food was great and great service.
I would recommend to a friend but would tell them the food is just ok. The location is interesting but the parking was horrible particularly deep puddles & snowy. Limited menu but interesting (rabbit schnitzel was excellent) but should have had vegetables.
Yummy! Rabbit schnitzel was delicious but everything was so good!!
Our visit was a total fail. The downstairs pub area had old Vermont charm, but we could not get service. After seating ourselves as instructed and being given menus by a waitress, she had a glass mishap at the bar where she got a cut on her arm. We understood when she disappeared for 10-15 minutes to take care of her cut. After getting a bandage, she came back out and immediately took the order of a table who had arrived way after us. Then she vanished again. I asked another waiter if we could please get our order in and he did put it in. However, when the burgers came, he had forgotten to put in my daughter's grilled cheese w tomato soup. Half an hour later, her food came, but the tomato soup was marinara sauce that you might dip mozzarella sticks into. Burger buns were not pretzel as advertised on website menu, but decent burger, not large portions for the price. We would never go back.
Hi Kelly, I apologize that your experience didn't exceed your expectations. I would be happy to bring you back for a meal on us as I know we can do better. Thank you so much for your feedback. - Kelly Tailer AGM
