Freeman and Grey is a great place to go for casual drinks and food or a big night out! The food is great and reasonably priced and the service is fabulous, particularly from Ben.
I came here for the first time with a big group for lunch. The food is amazing! Best fries I've had in a long time. They catered so well for the large group. The service was on point esp Ewan & Liam. Will definitely be recommending this place to others and will come back for those $4 pizzas.
The $5 pizza deal is really awesome. Loved the la fiesta(v) was our favourite. Portion size is good too! 12 dollar for Pizza and Beer if you order before 7:30pm, what else do we need?
Amazing amazing place. I cannot recommend it enough!! I booked a table for my 30th and had the best time. Super affordable with great specials. Really helpful and friendly staff. Cosy atmosphere. Thank you so so much! Definitely coming back!
Loved the culture! Met new people, had good drinks and food and enjoyed the experience overall :)
Nice casual pl to enjoy $5 pizza. Service was nice. Lovely outdoor space perfect for sunny days. Reasonable prices for Ponsonby.
We came in during lunch to try their $5 pizzas, we got the Pollo e Brie and a Tre Carne.
Although initially the size of the pizzas look quite small, one pizza is definitely enough per person. The flavour of the pollo e brie was very nice and had an abundance of cheese, however the chicken was a bit dry and the pistachio cream just tasted like sour cream. The three different types of meat on the tre carne were delicious, but the pizza overall was a bit too peppery for me.
Service was very friendly and warm, however I did feel like we had to wait a bit for the food to come out. Still incredible value for such a nice restaurant in Ponsonby.
The only photo that was taken after the food had been consumed. I love their pizzas with their unique toppings on them.
Friendly service and also a great venue for private functions.
Had a birthday party here. Good ambience. Had jugs of beer n heaps of pizza as $5. Beer seemed not upto the mark but pizza were nice. Tried all varieties of pizza. Overall a good place. Expected more of quality in beer.
Service was good n prompt and staff attentive.
A cool pub in Ponsonby area. Very cozy insides. Good for some drinks after work. Their $5 pizza deal really worths the go. Music is super nice. Will come back :)
Haven’t been here for a while but their service has really improved, and the design of their menu has changed for the better (same food + prices)! I’m so glad they have their special $5 pizzas even on the weekends as well, as I went in to use my birthday voucher. They were not fussed about me using the voucher to pay and food was served very quickly (10 mins).
I always get the Pollo e Brie as the pistachio cream and sweet chilli sauce goes well together. Their frose and cocktails are not bad either! Very cheap but filling pizzas in Ponsonby!
Love their pizzas! It’s big enough to share but you can also have it all to yourself if you’re feeling a little hungry lol and they are very delicious too 😋
definitely come here.
nicely sized pizzas for one that come with a diverse range of toppings at a cheap price of $6 between 5-7pm. pizza was cooked very well, a lovely crust on the outside of all pizza's.
the one staff member that was there and served us was brilliant, welcoming, and genuine. delivery of food was normal, very much satisfactory.
ambience of the place was immaculate, very warm, cozy, dim led lighting made it so rustic. decor was great. a good selection of well known songs were also played throughout at a nice volume that did not impede conversation, but loud enough to jam every so often. we sat in a little secluded table with a continuous oval couch chair with cushions, was very nice, although inconvenient to leave to go to the loo.
only bad comment is the state of the bathrooms. rather poor and lots of dirt and grime everywhere, not something u want to see.
Great staff, good pints on tap - it's an old building so a bit damp with some plumbing oddities. It's traditional anglo architecture with bathrooms up flights of stairs. Could have been a colonial-style homestead that was divided. Lots of rooms and diverse seating. The ambition of the pub is good - it's pricey but has potential.
Wow, what a find! Simple fare for a light finger dinner. Fantastic service both behind the counter and at table.highly recommend as a catch up venue after work
Prices are really competitive, and the drinks wre ice cold .
Came here for an early dinner on a really nice day. There's a good amount of outdoor seating to enjoy sunny weather. Also, the pizza deal ($5 for any pizza between 5 and 7:30) is amazing! There are a lot of different pizzas. The ones I had were great! Would definitely come back here when I'm in the area.
Great place specially for large group up to the size of 10 to hangout. The pizza are really delicious and they have happy hours everyday from 12 to 2 pm and 5 to 7.30 pm which you get all the pizza for just $5 which otherwise costs $12 or more. They also serve drinks. You seat and spend long hours and the staff won't disturb or kick you out. And they keep serving if your hungry... Good for small group as well.
Came in at 12 & it coincided with $5 pizza time. Pizzas are so good! Light crust with plenty of toppings and not soggy or too hard. Perfect. The mint cream on my lamb pizza was so tasty. We also got steak sandwiches doubled up.. our meal was filling. You can choose how you like your steak cooked. As with most new places you tend to overorder but it was worth it. Also they had the Emerson Pale Ale which is one of our faves. Would go back for pizza and beer for sure. Guy on the bar was nice and we paid at the bar although they do provide table service as well. (we just found it easier this way) Water is self serve and menus can be found on the bar.
Had a celebration here with friends one weekend and it was FANTASTIC! Their pizzas were a hit, complemented with a lot of drinks and bar food options (the calamari was my favourite), staff was super friendly and accommodating (especially one of the ladies serving our table and the manager that night), ambience and music were fun and casual.
Basically, love everything about that night! Highly recommended and will definitely be back 👍
Amazing place to hangout. Nice ambience and service. The highlight is $5.00 pizza during happy hours.
Whether you're looking for happy hour after work drinks, a boogie at night, or a large private event space, Freeman's does cover all of these. The pizza to be honest isn't anything I'll go out of my way for, but I still like the service, decor, and the amount of space. There's outdoor seating below as well as a deck upstairs. Note that there may only be one or two craftbeers on tap if you're looking for that.
Awsome place well recommended considering it was my birthday n wedding day we had booked in too bar thirty one couple doors down and was very disappointed with the service we recieved and he was the manager so we got a refund and walked down too freeman and grey only 1 worker on at the time and 18 of us and the service was just amazing too accommodate us all at the last minute thankyou so much Jordan for your awsome hospitality we will definitely be back again
