    Freddie's is simply the best place ever, great staff, awesome food, wonderful drinks, and an all around good time! Not to mention the rocking bartenders. Did I mention the phenomenal staff? Best in DC

    The Sunday Brunch is great with Champagne, Bloody Mary or Mimosas. Made to order omlett is a favorite of mine. Make a reservation if in a party, but solo at the bar works well - Bartender Eye Candy

    Bartender JO overheard me saying I liked muddled cucumber in my Hendricks Gin & Tonic. She made it happen without me asking. I didn't ask because I didn't want to be high maintenance.THANK YOU JO!!!

    I really like the food! I just wish the bar was bigger, this place gets jammed with people and it becomes very difficult to order more drinks.... and there isn't much room to hangout.

    Drag Queen Bingo every Wednesday is a lot of fun. Silly prizes. Food is not bad. Standard bar fare. Some dishes better than others. They do have a good cocktail menu. Karaoke on weekends.

    This neighborhood bar is always a good choice for a drink. Their bartenders are friendly. Ask for George or Scott.

    Freddie's is fun to visit once in a while for Karaoke on Friday nights, and drag shows on Saturdays. Food is pretty decent, if a little over-priced.

    Fun atmosphere! Avoid the frozen drinks though, too sweet and from a mix.

    Didn't expect to find such a nice beer selection. Still macrobrew dominated but tasty options like 312 and Fat Tire.

    You have to fight for attention from the staff here--empty or busy. Its sort of off-putting.
