    Great place, amazing drinks and sweetest service. Knocked a star for slightly overcooked steak and salty chips!

    The crushed potatoes were in fact not crushed they were sludge. Steak was average. All over priced for quality.

    We went to Bistro Freddie for my birthday - every dish we tried was exceptional, drinks were unique, and service was attentive and fast. They added a candle to my dessert which I didn't expect. We'll definitely be back!

    First visit to Bistro Freddie, was very enjoyable, loved the style of the restaurant, felt like you were in France. Lovely food, excellent sourdough and lamb bacon for snacks and excellent asparagus and steak tartare starters. Mains of stuffed chicken leg and skate wing were very good, lovely seafood bisque too. Loved the fact you can see the open kitchen too. Service was attentive and informative and overall a very good first visit,
