Bavarian-themed Fritz & Franz Bierhaus in Coral Gables (on Satchmo’s Blues Bar and Grill’s old location) offers Austrian, German and American brews as well as authentic Austrian/German food. We thank proprietor/chef Harald Neuweg for encouraging live music (he is also the founder and organizer of the annual Coral Gables Bluesfest). As of this writing, Piano Bob performs Wednesdays from 8 pm to midnight, and there are bands on the plaza every Friday 6-10 pm. No smoking indoors. Well-lit street parking with meters and more parking in the City garage (entrance on Aragon Ave).

Nook with displays, including a South Florida Blues Society charter membership placard, is by the dining entrance.

At the right is a covered upright piano which Piano Bob (Bob Wilder) plays on Wednesday nights.

Celebrity sighting: humorist, writer and Pulitzer Prize winner Dave Barry. He has written for The Miami Herald since 1983 and plays lead guitar in the rock band Rock Bottom Remainders.
