Definitely a solid bar all-around. The overall vibe is good. The customers and bartenders were all friendly and the prices were fair. I went in on a Saturday night and it was a bit crowded but it wasn't over crowded. I would suggest another night of the week if you want something more low key. I am curious about the live music in the back room. Come for a drink, stay for the video art. The videos are very cool. read more

Don't go to Park Slope that often but when I do, this is my "go to" place. Low priced draft beers with about ten of them always ready to be served. IPA's, Guinness and lagers. Free franks-1 per beer, nice atmosphere, divey but nice and clean, and great collection of foods as they have a separate grill. Dark lighting makes it a intimate setting. You must bring friends as you may not get anyone to converse. Bartenders do play favorites here although they will serve beer, wine and shots but not always conversations. Lots of seats and booths. Call ahead about when they have live music but they have a good collection of canned music. Weird videos playing on their tv, with parts of campy horror movies, screaming women and guys dressed up in rubber monster suits with Godzilla playing a bit part. Kind of hypnotic though so don't drink too much or you will be stomping on Japan too and like Godzilla, no one will be taking you home. read more

I know I'm an outlier for not loving Freddy's. Getting a drink and getting food always takes forever. The back room is teeny-tiny. There's just always something off. While I have fond memories of the original Freddy's and somehow keep ending up at the new one, I avoid it when I can. read more

I love this bar! I wish every bar in NYC was like Freddy's. Awesome video art always playing. Great backroom with all kinds of music. Cool bartenders! Cheap beer or not so cheap depending on your taste/wallet. read more

Love this bar: very chill, with great music both live and on the sound system. A great intimate space to see/hear performers, art on the walls and video screens, a well-trained bar dog and bonus: back garden. Recommend!! read more

okay it's taken me a little time to come to grips with the fact that the original freddy's is no longer. i miss my local and it's no longer as convenient to pop by for a guiness. i had to pay homage and trek to south slope finally. first off, the backroom is no longer the back room rather the front room. i made the mistake of heading back immediately. there's a small outdoor space, which closes at 11p. the selection of beers remain the same and the prices too. the staff is just as chill and laid back as before. love that they remember my usual too, only after ordering the guiness twice. it was cozy on a friday night, with southern rock played live in the back room. the space isn't as roomy as the former location's. the bar itself isn't as divey as the original on dean and 6th, but they do still have the chains on the bar which is a nice touch. also, they still show the tripped out experimental films on one screen and sports on the other. rip og freddy's. your reincarnation makes you proud. read more

Good comedy in the backroom, mondays and wednesdays. Check the schedule. It's free! Going to be torn down, so go soon.

Love me some Freddy's.... The Matts, The Mike, The Donald, the Titos and the tater tots make for most excellent evenings! That's right - tater tots, people. They have food now - a great selection of bar eats served until late including hot dogs, burgers and wings. Everything's cheap and yummy! Freddy's is just pitch perfect. read more

Came in on Saturday around 3pm. Walked in and everyone starred at myself and friends walking in. I ordered a whiskey ginger from the rude bartender lady. I took one sip and didn't like it and asked for another one with Honey Jack Daniel's whiskey. The bartender (who was dressed in an outfit resembling super mario) had an attitude stating she didn't have my whiskey of choice. I insured her that she did and was starring at it. After 2 mins of back and forth, she made my drink but insisted on me paying for the other drink that I did not like. I refused to pay for the drink but my friend picked up the tab for me. read more

This place is the only Bar that server Cider on Tap!!! now how can you not check this place out. I haven't tried their food, but the beer and atmosphere is really nice. We went there to grab ciders, then we left to eat but couldn't find any other bar as good as Freddys, so we came back and drank there the rest of the night! read more

Went here on a Sunday night and it has that friendly neighborhood vibe. The people were so down to earth, I'm originally from California so they gave me the history of the neighborhood. The atmosphere in the bar is definitely romantic. The lighting is Dim, the bar has a great selection and the booths were really comfortable. Bartender was great and the best part is the dog with the bowtie. Soooo frikin cute!! I got pretty intoxicated and everyone was great, I'll definitely go back!!! read more

This place is amazing! Classy cool bar in front, amazing music and art in back and private smoking patio. Great cool date spot or just a sweet place to hang out. Plus drink prices are great and the beer selection is very impressive. What more can you really ask for? read more

An eclectic and thoughtful experience with the cleanest back restroom in town. Now that's an honor for a local watering hole- even if the Sunday bartender is a knob. read more

Great dive bar! The mini lights on the ceiling are magnets. You'll occasionally see people take them down and throw them back up. The drinks are cheap, the music is loud, they have an outdoor patio, there's plenty of seats and there's a speakeasy section decorated with local art for those that want to chat without yelling. read more

i miss you old Freddy's. I hosted a night there and I took my friends from out of town to you. No one hated you. I miss you.

Pretty weird place. Not a bad weird, just weird. Everyone was friendly and I like how they answer their phone. It's definitely a dive bar. Super eclectic decor. You put your food order in to the kitchen and its CASH ONLY. My boyfriend got a cheeseburger and fries that was pretty good and I got tater tots with cheese sauce and bacon that were exactly how you'd expect them to be. We were in and out pretty quickly, just really hungry really late and they serve food until 2. Quick and convenient. read more

I played at Freddy's a few times. Great place, great atmosphere. A must visit for any Brooklynite or anyone visiting.

I went to the old freddy's and I can say that this bar really deserves to exist. Go if you have some good vibes to contribute. I love freddy's. It can be a little cranky but it's a fine ass bar. they have live music! go hear some. read more

went there for happy hour on a friday and the place was DEAD. I figured 6:00 on a Friday would be busy -- but not for freddy's. however, it began to make sense to me: the place was dark and dingy, smelled like old stale beer and looked like we were in a shipwreck that had been sitting at the bottom of the ocean for 50 years, then brought on land and someone stuck a bar in it. the food ordering system was confusing. you have to go into the kitchen to order? never seen that before. no counter, no real system. you talk directly to the cook and he gives you your food, but you pay at the front. Isn't that what a server is supposed to do? We stayed for 1 drink and went next door to south -- much, much better experience and very friendly staff. read more

Crazy decor, crazy feel. crazy shit showing on random televisions.Too crazy for me. : (

My kind of bar. Cheap, good selection of beers on tap, awesome jukebox that's not blasting, and a cool neighborhood crowd. The added bonus of weird movie scenes on the TV in the front adds to the experience. Ratner, how dare you would even think of touching this awesome neighborhood institution? read more

Dubious rich assholes illegally invoking 'Imminent Domain' by way of corrupt local politicians lead to the closing of Freddy's. In its place will be a basketball atrocity that will only create more chaos around the Atlantic Center. As if I need another reason to hate basketball... read more

I can't believe Freddy's wasn't on here! This is a Brooklyn institution that is not long for this world, since it's within the footprint of the Atlantic Yards project. Always filled with interesting characters, it also has a back room that plays host to bands, hootenannies, operatic recitals, spelling bees, karaoke, crafts night, (insert your idea here). And if your companion is stuck in line for one of the two bathrooms you can always be riveted by the late-night TV montages playing on the monitors. read more

If you haven't been to Freddy's you haven't been to a real bar. Go when Matt's working. He's a hell of a good barkeep. Nuff' said

This bar is a great place for the area. Used to go to South-now --here! I live nearby and frequent it regularly. Spacious with plenty of seating-great staff ..and cheap Happy Hour!! read more

I had a business morning meeting near the Barclay Center a few Wednesday's ago and followed up with a LUNCH at Freddy's. It's a relaxed place and the food was much better than you expect in place known for it's music and art scene. Thick burgers, salads, veggie sandwich. Fresh coffee. Welcoming atmosphere. Sassy bartender. read more

I have always loved a fine dive bar and this one is certainly the greatest I've encountered. Enjoy it while it lasts, because this spot is soon to be a thing of the past. Love the videos. read more

Freddy's is the bet little dive in town. I'm making it one of my regular spots for sure. Cheap beer in dirty glasses and usually some kind of strange show going on in the back room. Can't beat that. read more

Saw a really great show here. The back room is a little cosy, but we still found a place to sit and listen. I should disclose that it is close to home, but it's nice to have a neighborhood bar with free shows. read more

Great Old school (but not too old school) Brooklyn bar. Drink prices are real cool, always interestiong characters there to talk to, and good live music, especially one band led by a crazy middle aged guitar player. One of the most comfortable spots in Park Slope/South Brooklyn. read more

Cool place to hang out and they have comedy nights sometimes. It's great to meet up with a group and sit in a booth while the server takes care of the rest. Love the decor too read more

I love, love Freddy's. I lived in Seattle for 5 years and this has a similar vibe to Linda's if you know what I'm talking about. It's just a bar with nice people looking to relax. No suits here. And the drinks are cheap! Maker's Mark with coke runs $5.00. read more

Great time on a recent Sunday. Not crowded, so much as lively. Got a booth right away. Kitchen window service means you don't have to wait around for service. Veggie burger ($10), chicken wings ($8 for 6 wings), and sausage sandwich (~$10) were all on point. Well cooked. Big, big portions. Had some $4 draft beers, and $2 PBR. Nice beer selection. Free music began at 4pm, and they have bands and comedy acts coming through all the time. A great neighborhood spot that I will frequent. read more

When I walked into this bar I immediately noticed the décor of the venue. It was a mish-mosh of random things that some how all came together. It was like a drunken Martha Stewart/Pee Wee Herman Collaboration. There was a television in a fish tank, old horror movie posters, an actual fish tank with frogs in it and a television that showed extremely odd videos including a bear fighting a dog. I thought the venue was interesting to say the least. Beers were decently priced with a selection that ranged from cans to nicer drafts. I think I can say confidently that it was a place where if I lived in the area I would most likely frequent. There was also live music in the next room going on all night. read more

Great neighborhood bar, food is awesome, bartenders are friendly. The Crab Rangoon is fucking home made!!! Really great cheep beer.

I've only been here once but was very happy i did. The place is big and you will always find a place to sit unlike the bar next door to it. They have a decent selection of beers and cocktails but what make this place stand out for me is their food. Their Fries a la Freddy are out of this world! Prices are average. I will always come back here. read more

This place is great. First time I ever wrote a review that is how moved I am by its awesomeness. I have been going here for years. All of their bartenders rock. Good cheap drinks, though I will admit I haven't had any of their cocktails though I can't imagine them doing anything wrong at this point. (Honestly hard for me to move beyond $3 PBR's...$2 for happy hour). Wait I did have their Bloody Mary's at some point...tasty. Unpretentious vibe. Super tasty food...their tater tots are like crack. But the thing I like best about Freddy's is it's commitment to being a neighborhood bar that supports it's community in a variety of ways. It will accommodate just about any event in it's back space...and at times it's front room. I have had many friends perform...sometimes for their first time at Freddy's. I have seen some real good performances, and not so great ones...but it is a comfortable atmosphere to just come out and do your thing which is what makes it such a great community gathering space. I also had the fortune to be randomly assigned to a softball team that just so happened to have Freddy's as a sponsor. They were super accommodating allowing us to have a league event there, hooking us up with drink specials, and helping us out with all the logistics of setting up equipment for our DJ's both in the planning stages and at the day of the event. And then there's the frog.... read more

Awesome drafts. Cool people. Bitchin videos. Did I say bitchin videos, cool people, awesome drafts? Shake the blues. Grab a drink here.

I think the new Freddy's is better than the old one! They've really achieved the right front room intimate back-room balance with a delightful beer garden as well! I think it's aces! read more

This place is bad. Don't go here. Bartenders were incredibly smug and entitled. Decor and overall bar feel is weird.
