Freeman's Grub & Pub

Great little hole in the wall with delicious food and amazing cocktails. I ordered the Mike’s hot honey chicken without a bun and the asparagus as the side and all of it was delicious! My daughter ordered the same on the sandwich with the waffle fries, which were perfectly salted and perfectly cooked. I highly recommend the large Marge and their bourbon selection is decent.

My first time dining here. I ordered the Mike’s hot honey sandwich and it was delicious!! The side of deep-fried corn on the cob was just so-so (not bad at all, just a bit underwhelming - my friend got fries with the blackberry honey mustard and I think I was just jealous I didn’t get that instead lol), but I’m excited to go back and try some of the other offerings on the menu! Cute atmosphere and good service. This place is a must-try!! :)

I arrived here at 7:52pm on a Saturday night to meet a friend for dinner and drinks. I arrived first. A waiter had to clean off a dirty table. It is a small space but they do have outdoor seating. I ordered a water and app wings at 7:57pm and it came at 8:07pm. The wings were crispy and delicious. I dipped it in the sauce it came with, which I also enjoyed. After a few minutes, we ordered drinks. I got the b-cubed and my friend got a margarita. It took an average amount of time to arrive. The drink was different for me, but I enjoyed it. We ordered food at 8:25pm. I got the brisket entree with regular fries and my friend for the chopped brisket sandwich with waffle fries. The food came 10 minutes later, which was quick. I, personally, didn’t like the brisket sauce but the brisket itself was good. I dipped it in the bbq sauce I got with my fries. I was expecting more than 2 pieces of brisket, however. My fries were hot and fresh. The table was small and they brought my brisket and fries on a separate plate when they could’ve combined it. While trying to make room, a piece of brisket I cut fell on the floor. I was so disappointed because it was the end piece that was charred. The staff were attentive and friendly. We had a male and female staff that attended to us. It was a pleasurable experience and I would return. They have a small parking lot and some street parking available too.

Everything was amazing, the food, the service, I could not get enough of the crispy sandwich that my sister got it was amazing, the chicken was crispy the honey added on top of it was chefs kiss. The crispy Brussels sprouts were crispy I enjoyed it a lot along with the poppers. My brisket sandwich was delicious as well, the tiramisu cocktail was very delicious, I loved that they had the drink and the ice separately, I think it was pretty neat so I could pour it when I was ready to drink it. Really great atmosphere to go hang out with friends or family 10 out of 10 recommend!

We stopped in for the first time and it was fantastic. We had a Cuban sandwich, hot honey chicken sandwich, wings, and tenders. The deep fried sausage balls appetizer was also very good. It's a cozy place, kind of small and crowded when busy but worth the stop. We look forward to dining here again.

An elite restaurant in Greensboro, Freeman’s never disappoints. Food is always stellar, especially the seasonal options (I’m lobbying for the chicken piccata to be a year-round item). Cocktails and service are also top-notch every time I visit. This is the kind of local business that deserves to succeed. Go often.

Freeman’s Grub & Pub delivers cozy vibes and solid eats. Crispy Brussels with a kick? Yes. Hot Honey Chicken with sweet heat? Also yes.

Just moved to Greensboro a month ago and have been trying to find our “place”- this may be it! The best sandwich I have had since moving to the area (I had the Pork Bahn Mi, he had the Hot honey chicken). Great food, super friendly service and loved the atmosphere. We will be back!

Great place to eat! The food was fresh and flavorful and the service was great. We enjoyed eating on the outdoor patio. So glad we found this gem driving through!

It is so so so far past overdue that I leave a fresh review for Freeman's, I honestly didn't even realize I hadn't done so in the last couple of years. This place has been beyond phenomenal ever since Emily and Kevin bought it a couple years ago. That is highlighted by two consecutive appearances on Yelp's top 100 restaurants list, a local record, and joining very distinguished company. Freeman's is a great spot for both food and drinks. Their cocktails are inventive, delicious, and reasonably priced. They always have a special that sucks you in. A lot of the seating here is bar seating, so you'll be enticed by friendly bartenders and see the wall of drinks ready for your order. But, the food is really going to knock you back. This is my favorite place for what I'd call an "everyday" steak in the Triad. Their sirloin adorned with just butter and herbs is perfection. Cooked perfectly every time, no sauce needed (though I get sauce because I love sauce and they have so many good ones!), it's an entree that is no fail for me. They also have a mean BBQ platter. If you're into sandwiches, that menu definitely won't let you down. You'll find a wide variety, including their take on a Banh Mi. My favorite side has to be the street corn. Well spiced, balanced with fresh crumbled Cojita cheese, roasted corn. Squeezing the lime on top will put it over the edge! I also typically get a side greek salad with my meal, their dressing has a wonderful tang, and the greens are fresh. Overall, this place has earned every bit of their top 100 ranking, and it's the kind of gem that forms the backbone of a great food scene here in the Triad. Go visit!!

In short: Wow. There is a reason Freeman's has claimed and maintained a spot on the Top Places to Eat. Freeman's is located in a small building just a few blocks down Spring Garden from UNCG's campus. It's easy to miss, but keep an eye out for the green signs on the sides of the building! Be warned - parking is pretty tight with the amount of businesses around it, but there is a small lot behind the building. Inside is small but busy, there are a few tables against the walls and space for seating at the bar.  My experience started with drinks, and I was very pleased to see a beer menu with new and interesting options, and even more pleased to find out that they do flights! The glasses they used were super cute. The entire food menu looked delicious, but I opted for the chopped brisket sandwich with the jalapeno salt and cumin seasoned fries. The speed of the service was impressive! Food came out in no time at all. I was blown away by the food - the brisket was perfect, super tender. I absolutely loved the sauce that was on it. I'm usually not a huge fan of lettuce on my sandwiches but they used the perfect leafy lettuce. And the fries! The seasoning was fantastic. The jalapeno and cumin was an incredible combo that I've never seen before, and it went well with their included fry sauce. I was lucky enough to get to try a bite of my dining partner's caprese chicken sandwich, and it was loaded with flavor. It was an incredible meal, and we were both very happy. Freeman's is a must try if you're in the area. If you're not, use Freeman's as your excuse to be in the area. You will certainly not be disappointed.

Whenever we are trying to decide on a restaurant Freeman's is always a top choice! The Bahn Mi is my usual go to as it's absolutely delicious! I also recommend a cocktail as they have a rotating menu of seasonal cocktails that are always delicious. The only possible downside is it at times can be difficult to find a table as the restaurant is not very large. It does make for a more intimate atmosphere though. Which is a plus! As the weather warms up the outside seating is a nice option as well. Definitely recommended!

I am a Greensboro fan with so many good local eateries to choose from. Freemason Grub & Pub is no exception. The signage is challenging in the dark, but the exterior green lights likely leftover from St. Patty's helped identify them. It's an adorable two story brick with wonderful character. Parking is off street or in their own small lot in the rear. My wife and I cut our arrival a bit close after 830 with a weekday closure of 9. The interior offers a cozy vibe with wood floors, exposed brick and dimly lit dining room . The bourbon bar is the centerpiece. With closing in 20 minutes the restaurant was mostly empty. Our friendly waitress Bella was on top of drink orders. I ordered an Old Fashioned utilizing Makers bourbon with a banana flavor profile. It proved to be outstanding @ $14. Bella encouraged us to try their bbq which they are known for, we ended up both getting the Cherrywood Brisket. My wife with side of Cesar and me side of cup of chili for $1 up charge. The recommendations really made the difference. Bella brought the food out within 15 minutes. Temperatures were correct. The brisket was magnificent. Tender with fat to meat ratio. The house sauce was perfect with a slight kick. The cup of chili was yum with Navy Bean and frito corn chips on top that was unusual. My wife agreed with my assessment on the brisket and her salad was fresh. We finished out splitting a butterfinger pie which was good size for the share. It proved to be mighty tasty and not a crumb was left. Our bill was brought to us in a timely fashion to close out. Since we were out of town Bella suggested a few other local places. I would recommend Freemason and who knows may return this week.

The best buffalo chicken sandwich I've eaten. Ever. The buffalo sauce has an obvious and sexy homemade flavor (you can see the spices in there). The chicken is super crispy, and everything is settled between fresh and flaky French bread. YUM! And those wings are smoked (albeit a little puny, and they only give you 7 per order) and delicious! Double YUM! Tasty street corn on the side. Service by the sweet bartender was top-notch. The place is tiny, so I advise going during the non-peak hours to guarantee you get a seat quickly. It was TOO COLD in there! I had to eat with my coat on.

Absolutely phenomenal experience with our recent visit to Freeman's. Came around lunch time on Sunday and were able to be seated right away. We started with an order of the poppers which were wonderful. Perfect flavor from the jalapeño but not overly spicy. A little on the sweeter side, but we really enjoyed these to start. I went with the Cuban for my main dish and up-charged to the poutine. The poutine was exactly what I was craving, perfectly crispy fries topped with gooey cheese curds and a savory gravy...even if everything else was bad (which it most definitely was not) I would definitely be coming back for these. The Cuban was wonderful as well. Tender and flavorful pork and a nice crispy slice of ham all smashed between some bread was just...chefs kiss. My girlfriend got the hot honey chicken sandwich with fries. The chicken sandwich was amazing! The chicken was the perfect thickness on both slices and fried perfectly as well. I do wish it was a little spicier, but overall a dang good sandwich. Definitely get the fry sauce if you get fries as a side as well. Freeman's will definitely be on our come back to list!

I'm not sure why I haven't visited Freeman's before now, but it's definitely on our list of places to come back to over and over again! Just a cozy nook on the corner, you'd have no clue how much flavor they are packing into the dishes on their menu. Their poutine was as authentic as it gets and the rich gravy was so flavorful I could gulp it. The draft selection is a beer lover's dream, featuring a diverse range of craft brews. The BBQ 3-way was a flavor explosion, with tender meats and bold sauces. Freeman's is a perfect spot for those seeking a delightful blend of excellent drafts and mouthwatering offerings in a nostalgic pub atmosphere. Highly recommended!

I will definitely be adding this restaurant to my list. The inside is quaint but really cute. Service was good and most importantly, the food was delicious. I got the jalapeño poppers with a side of rosemary fries. I love how the poppers aren't fried so they're not too heavy, and the pimento cheese on top is really good. The rosemary fries were absolutely delicious. The seasoning was perfect, they were well salted, and the perfect amount of crispiness. They don't come with fry sauce but I recommend getting some because it's so good

This restaurant had a ton of great reviews and is see why. The vibe was very hipster-ish which usually is a sign of over-priced food but the prices were pretty cheap here. I loved the decor like the fans and the buttons on the booth. I got the chopped brisket sandwich with waffle fries and I was very happy with my choice. The brisket was tender, the waffle fries were crispy, and the fry sauce was probably some of the best fry sauce I've ever had outside of Raising Cane's. Our server was really nice and friendly. Our drinks were sitting empty for a few minutes but it wasn't too big of a deal.

Love this tiny greensboro gem! Stopped in for Sunday lunch with friends and got to try some of the winter specials and my, oh, my, was it worth it! I always forget how eclectic the atmosphere is here. It seems to draw inspiration from the 70s as far as decor. The servers were so great! They checked on us often and even turned off the fans in our section because we were cold. The food was piping hot and fresh, and we got to try so much! We will be back, and if you haven't checked them out yet, do yourself a favor and go.

The waitress was phenomenal, loved her. She was so pleasant, but the food was so salty. The fries were not cooked properly and over salted. The bahn mi meat was also over salted. Atmosphere was cute, but the food didn't add up.

It was an unseasonably warm (but not really for NC weather) day and I had my dog with me so I was looking for somewhere new to dine with outdoor dog friendly seating. I've heard a lot about this place so we checked it out. Outdoor seating is small but there was room for us. I got the cherrywood smoked beef brisket and street corn. I didn't love the brisket. It was more pot roast tasting to me. I know there's different cuts of brisket this wasn't my preference and lacked flavor. The corn was good. My husband got the chopped beef brisket sandwich and it was great! I wish I got that. I'm not deterred by what I got, I'll definitely go again and get something else. There was a lot of appetizing looking things! Service was great!

It's been seven years since my last review of Freeman's and the place has only gotten better. The space that's been a grocery store and iconic acoustic instrument repair shop, is a warm, welcoming place. Inside is dominated by a long bar with seating though table seating is limited to approximately six tables. They do have seating outside as well. What impresses me the most is the friendliness and fantastic food. The staff makes you feel right at home and a welcomed guests. Freeman's has the feeling of a neighborhood bar/diner, which it is. The other patrons are welcoming as well. Their food is not your typical pub fare. While the menu items may seem like a regular pub menu, they aren't! Freeman's puts their own unique signature on everything they prepare. This is truly some the best food in town! I do not like Brussels sprouts but I love the light, delicate offerings here. I had the brisket sandwich and it was fantastic. Everyone in our small party absolutely loved their dinner. A very well deserved Five Stars!

Food was good. Service good. A little too spicy on the sandwich. I will ask for no buffalo next time

Wow! We were impressed with everything about this place. We were driving through Greensboro and my wife proposed two options. The first was Freeman's and the second was a place we have already visited. I said, let's try Freeman's. Thanks again to my wife who keeps tracks of places we want to try! We arrived about 3:30pm on Saturday afternoon. We had read that parking can be somewhat tricky, so we were prepared to circle the block at least a couple of times. They do have a small parking lot which was full. Also, much of the street parking nearby appeared to be limited and occupied. There is a small drycleaners next door that is closed on Saturday's and there was parking available. We did double check with the server when we sat down to ensure we were okay to park there and he said yes, they use that parking lot when the drycleaners is closed. The building is super cool, it is a two/three story brick building that is narrow and unattached. The front porch was decorated for fall and very welcoming. Inside, it is just as charming. A decent size bar allows for approximately ten barstools and there are less than 10 tables of various sizes to the best of our recollection. We were immediately welcomed as we took a seat at the bar and the young man provided us menus and took our drink orders. Everything sounded delicious and we decided to try the seasonal Firecrackers for an appetizer (fried gyoza stuffed with buffalo chicken and jalapeño pimento cheese, served with ranch or bleu cheese). For our entrees, I narrowed it down to the Buffalo Fried Chicken Sandwich, served with Swiss cheese, ranch, lettuce and tomato and rosemary garlic shallot fries. My wife chose the Cherrywood-Smoked Beef Brisket served with the brisket sauce on the side and a house salad with ranch dressing. After our orders were taken we were looking at the various items on the walls and noticed a cool history of the building which was built in 1911. For the first 5 decades it served as two different neighborhood grocers. Beginning in the 1960's the building switched hands and served as a beauty salon, pawn shop, drycleaners, etc. Freeman's Grub &Pub has occupied the building since 2014. The Firecrackers arrived shortly after we placed our order and I immediately dug in. They were very tasty and flavorful, I also discovered the dill ranch served with them which was delicious as well. Our entrees arrived in a timely manner and looked fabulous! The brisket was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The side salad was tossed in the creamy dill dressing and my wife immediately commented on just how delicious it was. So much so, she told me she was going to ask if they sell the dressing to go. My chicken sandwich was stacked tall and was also prepared perfectly. The buffalo chicken with the cool ranch and crunchy bun was excellent. The fries were seasoned well and I ended up dipping them in the brisket sauce which I really enjoyed. When we inquired about dill ranch dressing we were told they do sell it for $6 per small mason jar. I also asked about the brisket sauce and told they also sell it for the same price. Needless to say, we left with two jars of dill ranch and one jar of brisket sauce. After we finished our meal, my wife used the restroom where she noted they recently received a 99.5 on there health inspection, which always makes us happy to see. She reported the bathrooms were just as well kept as the remainder of the business. She was also excited to tell me the hallway to the restroom was lined with awards, accolades and articles showcasing the business. Since I am a proud Yelp Elite contributor, she told me Freeman's was chosen as a "Top 100" in the U.S. for 2023. It then hit her that she had read that some time ago. That is why she already had it on our list. This is the second "Top 100" restaurant we have been too and we agree whole heartedly. We would and will recommend this to others. We are already talking about coming back very soon!

This is my second review in the last few months as I frequent this gem of Greensboro quite often. During my last visit, I was not quite satisfied with my meal. It was good, but not great. But the staff at Freeman pub redeemed themselves today with the new special hot honey chicken sandwich. The chicken was crisp, but juicy and drizzled with tons of honey and the heat was just right. I paired this wonderful sandwich with one of my favorite sides the street corn which never disappoints. I went back-and-forth about the onion rings, but decided to stick with an old favorite. Another great addition to the meal was one of their special cocktails, the February drink (februberry)which features Tito's, sour mix, and blueberries. I will say their spirits always carry a kick, especially for those who are not big alcohol drinkers. I sat at the bar today and service was fast.

Always a great go to spot! It has never disappointed me. I love trying their season specials on drinks and especially food. The service is always great and efficient. The inside is pretty quaint but it's perfect. They also have a patio area if you wish to sit outside. I love that they offer a substitute and you can turn basically ANY dish vegan/meatless. Such a plus! They have amazing dishes look no further and the salads are a favorite as well!

This will be a quick review and a big shout out! The space is always some comforting, as are the food, and service. But beyond all the great vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore choices - they are great people. Last week they pushed out a social media promotion for OTHER RESTAURANTS AND BUSINESS IN GREENSBORO! And you know what, I patronize MOST of them - but I found a few new ones. THIS IS WHAT BEING A SMALL BUSINESS IS ALL ABOUT! Kudos - support Freemans's. Support Local. Support Greensboro.

Me and my mom stopped in for lunch this weekend. We started with the Brussel sprouts as an appetizer. They were pretty good if you're a Brussel sprouts fan! They had a nice seasoning and crispness to them. I ordered the special which was an animal style burger, with fries as my side. The burger was delicious and loaded with goodness. It came with two patties, which were cooked perfectly and was topped with onions, cheese, animal sauce, lettuce and tomato. I really liked the fries, they had a jalapeño cumin seasoning which gave them a slight kick of flavor. It was a great lunch and our server was very friendly.

What a superb little place! Good beer selection, and surprising menu. I had the Carolina Cuban with Waffle Fries and it was a home run. Check this little place out! Very limited seating so just beware! The team that works there is spot on and service was awesome.

Boy, have I been missing out on Freeman's. I think every bite I took was delicious and the Mocktail was the perfect match to all of this tasty food. If you have never been to Freeman's, this is your sign to go! The staff were incredible - this meal was everything and more! Chicken Wings Poutine Brussel sprouts Chicken Tendies Caprese chicken Banh mi Buffalo fried chicken Chopped Brisket Street corn

Every time we take a trip to Greensboro we always try to eat here. We live a few hours away but when in town it's a must! A small, local place with a funky vibe, delicious cocktails and food that is... chef's kiss.

Freeman's is a cozy little spot and I love how it feels intimate with the smaller space and more minimal seating. It's focus is bbq/smoked meats but they have so many other dishes to choose from! We recently went for dinner and tried a few apps and entrees including the poutine which was one of the closest I've had to traditional Canadian poutine. The gravy was really flavorful and rich and the cheese curds were exactly how they should be! For our meals we got the pork Banh mi, chicken caprese, and the jerk chicken sandwich. All of them were loaded with toppings and flavor but the Banh mi was our favorite! The only addition would be more of those jalapeños you give us! Those added to the sandwich took it to the next level. We had to close things out with dessert because anytime I hear Butterfinger, it's a must. Their homemade pie was buttery, creamy, and such a nostalgic treat from the candy bars. Excited to go back soon!

I was excited and proud to see another Greensboro restaurant land a spot on Yelp's top 100 restaurants to visit in 2023! This was my sign to finally visit this local best kept secret, so I grabbed my boyfriend and my Elite besties and headed on over. Dining at Freeman's can be somewhat of an elusive experience when the parking situation is a little challenging (especially if you're averse to parallel parking), and the size of the restaurant itself is fairly small. We arrived around 7:15pm on a Tuesday, and we had to wait about 30 minutes for a table to open up. Naturally we started off by ordering some drinks and appetizers to share. I opted for the Mogwai cocktail (Beefeater gin, basil, cucumber, lime, and Sprite). It was just the right amount of sweetness and had nice, fresh green notes from the basil. For appetizers we ordered the brussel sprouts, seasonal cheddar sausage balls, and the poppers because we're extra like that and lack self-control. The brussel sprouts were so buttery and dissolved instantly on your tongue. I really enjoyed the crunch of the sausage balls, and the delicious apricot mustard that came with it. The poppers had a delicious ooey-gooey pimento cheese filling and they weren't too spicy. For my main dish I ordered the buffalo fried chicken sandwich with the seasonal side blackened green beans. To me there was nothing notably buffalo about the sandwich as it didn't really have any spice factor. I also wish there had been more sauce as it was a little dry to me. The green beans were seasoned well and were cooked just right to still retain a slight crunchiness. My boyfriend and Elite BFF both ordered the seasonal chicken club melt. Their main critique was that it wasn't very melty as there was a small amount of cheese on the sandwich. When my boyfriend tried a bite of my sandwich he did prefer it to the one he ordered. Overall, we felt the appetizers were the stars of the show and the entrees fell a little bit short. I will definitely be back to try other seasonal items that will be featured on the menu.

I've been frequenting this place for years--and for all the reasons. Basically what you have here is a versatile gastropub bistro that can kinda be what you're looking for: date night ambience, brunch recovery with nature therapy, or you just miss their blackberry barbecue sauce (which is completely understandable). Everything is fresh and made in-house, all the way down to the sauces. The cocktails are sharp and savory, and the menu is stacked with edibles for any palette. If you want a solid tour, grab the poutine (seasonal only), and then entrée it up with the Banh Mi, street corn on the side. The staff is replete with gifted chefs, bartenders, and hosts, all of whom work their damndest to ensure a meal to remember.

I'm visiting from out of town and I'm so happy to have visited this place! The staff was extremely kind and attentive. She made great suggestions and was super bubbly! The food was delicious and the portions were great! They have a variety of different seasonings for the fries, I got the rosemary and garlic. It was so delicious!! I was expecting the jalapeño poppers to be fried. They were still good, but not my favorite. The star of the show was definitely the fried Buffalo chicken. The inside was super cute very cozy. I loved the exposed brick. Great place, totally recommend!

I know this restaurant made the top 100, and I really think that has more to do with the staff and service than the food. The cocktail menu seemed really fun, and if it wasn't a work night, I would have tried more of them. The bartender/owner was super knowledgeable and took the extra step to switch to a different shaped glass for my spill prone friend. It seemed like the thread through the menu was a lack of SAUCE. I ordered rosemary garlic shallot fries and didn't really taste a difference in flavor. This turned out to be okay because the blackberry honey mustard sauce changed my life. But this girl does love her garlic. I wish I had taken the chicken off of my chicken BLT. It was a lot of toppings. These chicken wings were really nice and crispy with a yummy sauce. The staff was fantastic but I will need to order other things when I return.

Oh man! This is a must eat restaurant in Greensboro! It's small place, maybe seats 20 but it's a perfect size to create a fun relaxed unique ambiance. I didn't get a lot of pictures because I was hungry and didn't remember. We started off with Brussels sprouts that were salty, sweet and crispy like I like them. I'll be craving these and have to figure out how they did them. We also had chicken wings the way they were intended to be made! They were smoked then fried with blackberry bbq on the side. So very flavorful, juice yet crispy. If you like blue cheese dressing get a side...they smoke the blue cheese before making it! I'm not sure what everyone else got at the table or even how it looked because my chopped brisket was the best brisket I've ever had. I mean it just melted in my mouth! The only thing better would have been some more brisket!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Greensboro. The food is awesome and the atmosphere is very laid back. They have a lot of vegetarian and vegan dishes so I always have options.

Little pub spot with great food and drinks? I'm in!! This spot is small but mighty! Pretty limited seating when we came on a Saturday evening but we sat at the bar. It is pretty crowded in here so that's definitely something to know. The bar tenders were very nice and attentive! It was confusing what to do and where to go when we walked in but it wasn't a big deal. This place is pumping out some awesome, fresh food! Their menu is very unique and well thought through - I had a hard time choosing what to order. I wouldn't say it was exceptional but it was VERY good. Both our sandwiches and sides were great. You can pick seasonings to go on the fries which were awesome. The Brussel sprouts were my personal favorite - they were SO tasty but a little greasy. While I loved the chicken BLT I did feel like it was lacking flavor. I ended up adding some hot sauce to it as it needed some type of kick (hot honey would have been perfect). Would definitely go back if I was in the area!!

Freeman's is a great spot for eats and drinks on Spring Garden St, and it's also one of my favorite places in Greensboro. It's not a big space but it's such a chill atmosphere, which is one of the reasons why I love going here every so often. Their food/drink menu is simple and they usually rotate some new items frequently. My favs are the hand breaded chicken strips, rosemary/garlic/shallot fries, and their delicious Butterfinger Pie (HIGHLY recommend)! Best of all, Freeman's has reached #75 on Yelp Top Places to Eat in 2023!

I've been to Freeman's a couple of times now. The inside is super cute and they offer a rotating menu. The first time I had a pasta dish and today I had the Cuban sandwich with fries and a cocktail. Our waitress was quick, attentive, and friendly. My fiance love it here because they have a nice selection of vegetarian options/substitutions. The only reason I gave 4 stars is parking can be difficult as their lot only allows for like 5 vehicles and the street adjacent is somewhat narrow. Overall a nice place to grab a bite.

We are from out of town and we're looking for a random restaurant with good reviews. I am not a huge bbq/smoked fan but this place blew my mind! Me and my husband got the 3-way to split and it was melt in your mouth good! Staff friendly, bathrooms clean, and service 10/10! Go here for good people and great food!!

This was a cool little spot to check out! I saw the Lavender Lemon slushies on their INSTAGRAM and with the heat we been having, I was invested Limited seat on the inside but they had to nice outdoor shaded seating area. The slushies was delicious! And the wings were hot, crispy and I loved the blackberry BBQ sauce. The slushies rotate, cant wait to try the next one!

I stopped by for a quick drink because I'd seen the spiked hot chocolate on their Instagram. And boy was it worth it! So yummy and had just the right amount of buzzzzzz to it. Felt like a warm hug after a long day. The bartender was very nice and we chatted some. And The Santa Claus was on the television which made the whole moment feel perfect. I look forward to visiting again to try out some food!

Went here on a whim on a Saturday night. Staff were friendly and attentive. Not the most comfortable seating options, but not terrible for a small place, either. The food and cocktails were pretty good, too!

Worth the hype. Jessica was an excellent server. Nice beer and wine selection. Brisket sandwich was melt in the mouth quality. Brought half of it home. Salads were just the right size, even for the small size. Prices were very reasonable. Can't go many places and feed 3 people, with drinks for $75. Dog friendly too!

Found this little gem while working up in the Greensboro area. Stopped in one night for dinner and a couple of drinks. Had the Poutine that was very good and had the most delicious brisket gravy. Had the Chicken Strips w/ Blackberrys BBQ sauce on the advice of the bartender, Bella, and they were among the best strips I have ever had. Also tried the Firecrackers, a form of dumpling that was good but not as amazing as everything else. My coworker had the Brussel Sprouts and the Buffalo Chicken sandwich. He was impressed by both. I tried the Brussel Sprouts, something I've tried multiple times and never could eat more than one. I really enjoyed these and ate more than a few. The two bartenders, Bella and Cora, were great with the customers. Both were very friendly and personable. They were excellent additions to the overall ambiance. The bar selection was not overwhelming but was a perfect mix of top, mid, and lower shelf spirits as well as some really good craft beers. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we returned the next day. Bella was surprised to see us even though we told them we would return. We also met the manager, Max, and he was as personable as his bartenders. My coworker and I both tried the Top Sirloin with Brown Butter, and it was tender, tasty, and just perfectly done. Before the entrees, we had another plate of the Brussel Sprouts ( which I ate even more than the previous night) and the Chicken Wings, which were probably the best thing we had in the two nights there. They were just simply amazing. I look forward to returning to Freeman's the next time I am in town!

Amazing flawless sensational. The staff was super nice, the ambiance is great, the food was amazing and the drinks were too. Will be returning.

This restaurant was adorable. The decor inside from the double pulley fan to the history of the building was fantastic. I love the raw brick that was exposed on one side and everything about this restaurant is adorable. The service was fantastic. It seemed like the staff were wearing multiple hats which was OK for a late afternoon lunch on a Saturday. I had a chicken BLT, which was recommended by the server over the buffalo chicken Sammy and it was tasty. Lots of bread, however. The chicken was pounded out thin which I loved, and the bacon was crisp. The avocado was good, nothing funky about it at all. The tomatoes were tasty, and the sandwich overall was very good. French fries were the bomb! Crisp, thin enough, seasoned well and very large serving! Yum. I'll be back I want to try those chicken wings next time.

My husband and I finally had the honor of visiting Freeman's Grub & Pub for dinner. They are located in a pretty small space and don't take reservations so if you have a group you better get there early! It's pretty cool that they have a staple menu with seasonal items on it. We were informed that the menu was going to change the following week, so I made sure to order some of the things that would go away. These items were the potato leek soup, the sausage cheddar balls, and the green beans. All were very tasty! For entrees my group had the jerk chicken sandwich, the vegan jerk chicken sandwich, and the brisket sandwich. Everyone loved their meal! I personally don't like fatty meats, so I probably wouldn't order the brisket sandwich. Other than that, everything was great!

The Brisket sandwich is amazing, the fried chicken was perfect, street corn, and the Cuban also were phenomenal! Highly recommended!

This was my first time visiting freeman's but after seeing many other Yelp elites rave about this place I knew I had to try it! I decided to go light and chose the house salad with chopped filet on top. The steak was cooked very well. If I had to guess I'd say the ranch is homemade! My husband got the bbq 3-way consisting of fried wings, pulled pork, and beef brisket. All were delicious but the brisket was our favorite because of the perfect char! He also got a side of fries that were supposed to be rosemary garlic with jalapeño salt and cumin. I'm not sure if they might have just forgotten to put the seasoning on because they were definitely just plain old French fries. When you first walk in it's a bit confusing if you seat yourself or wait to be seated. After standing for a few minutes and no one addressing us we decided to seat ourselves. A server then told us we had to wait to be seated and had us get up from the table and sat another party. A bit awkward but just a minute later we were seated. Not a big deal, just more want to give feedback to the restaurant for an area of improvement! Overall I would definitely go back and I'd like to try some of the sandwiches next time!

Lucky find! Came in Monday, returned on Wednesday! Great food, great bar, knowledgable honest and friendly staff! Had the Brussel sprouts, Greek and four season salads, and the uncle Mike's chicken- all were fantastic! Best find in a long time!!

Nice place to go for lunch on a rainy day! Cute small place, but does have some outdoor seating as well if not raining! Perfect mix of food! Started with a yummy Raspberry Mojito! Then just had a small four seasons salad so that I could splurge one of the best crispy chicken strips I've ever had! Dipping sauce was super yummy!

Freeman's has some of the most delicious and unique food I've had recently! Just the other day, I spent the afternoon eating on the back porch enjoying their smoked wings with a blackberry BBQ sauce and poutine. They were perfect companied with one of their seasonal cocktails. (They also have AMAZING spicy Bloody Mary's!!) The wings were smoky and crisped to perfection. All of the sauces were fabulous. But the poutine had one of the best gravies I've had in a minute! The staff is also always kind and friendly!

Hey ya'll! You know I am stingy with my 5s. This is a solid 4 for my first time. I was excited to visit The food was pretty good. Randomly Bae wasn't feeling his best (not C19) so we cut our trip short. When he only has 1.5 beers something isn't right. I did not do my due diligence so let me save ya'll from yourselves. This isn't the place for big groups. Party of four at best. Date night? Certainly. There aren't a lot of table tops. We ended up sitting at the bar. I would visit during off peak times. Meaning don't try to squeeze in at 12 noon for lunch. Everybody wants to eat at 12 noon. The parking lot is small but there is plenty of street parking. The sausage balls called me to this place. It is a seasonal item. Yes, they are really good. For me abs my tastes I wanted my sausage less ball but for the portion size, two apiece were a perfect for me & Bae to split. Bae orders the pulled pork sandwich. He wasn't a huge fan. Caveat: we are from Eastern, NC. I typically won't order pork bbq at most places because the flavor will not be "right". My vinegar based sauces folks from the East know what I mean. However, a good smoke on a hunk of meat will get my attention because you shouldn't need sauce. Bae did say the sandwich was dry. Check the photo. With that being said I ordered the bbq 3 ways plate. I know. I know. I wanted to try the wings and the brisket. I was willing to take a chance on the pulled pork. Soooooo glad ordered this. The wings lived up to their description. Yes, get them as an appetizer to share. Brisket was not too lean and not to fatty. Had a nice bark. Very tender. Didn't need sauce. Now the pulled pork by itself was tender and tasty. However, it did need the bbq sauce that came with it. Just a touch though. The combination of sauce and pork was delicious. This should have been drizzled on Bae's sandwich. The blackberry bbq sauce was just okay for me. Both sauces were automatically served on the side. I also got fries with my meal. Mistake. The fries were fresh out the grease hot but I didn't need them. I had plenty of meat to entertain my tastebuds. The slaw was just okay. I ended up dumping it in the tray as it was difficult to eat out of the small container. Pro tip: stick to the salt & pepper fries. I got the rosemary garlic ones. I expected to see greenery and baby chunks of garlicky goodness. Nah. It was a sprinkled seasoning that gave me some saltiness but not very much rosemary or garlic. It didn't cost extra but regular fries me next time. You get a plate full of fries. Be advised you may want to share. Service was steady. We sat at the bar. Again, for me too much going on behind the bar trying to get it situated plus serve customers. Started with two ladies then a younger gentlemen joined them. Perhaps we arrived before shift change? All three of them helped us at some point during our meal. I am old school. I like to have one point of contact for service with the exception of the expediter who brings out the food. Everyone was polite and friendly though. Would I return? Yes if I see something on a future menu that catches my attention. Would we return? Probably not. Bae enjoyed his meal somewhat. The beer was good. He even enjoyed the music. Chill ambiance which was unexpected for a packed out bar. I just don't think it was his speed for anything g other than maybe popping in for a drink if we're in the area. I recommend checking this place out. Keep an eye on their social for updated menu and drink items

This charming spot never gets old. Delicious sandwiches and sides and always an eclectic and interesting mix of ingredients. It's not a negative but after having dined with them quite a few times already I do wish they'd add in some occasional specials or switch up the menu a bit. Maybe they do and I just missed it, there's always that. Either way, fun & funky cocktails and delicious food prepared with top quality ingredients AND great service always has me coming back for more.

I enjoyed eating here and would recommend it for anyone that values local, unique and vintage vibes when having a meal or a drink. Our server (Bella) was attentive and helpful, but while also not being disruptive to our conversation. Food quality, presentation and taste were very good. The space was clean, cozy and decorated in a way that made me feel like it could be in Dublin. Parking seems like it could be a hassle during busy times, but we had no issue.
