Freehouse is an OK place that could be amazing! It has a unique and intersting history with its 1928 building that used to house a Presbyterian Ministry wherein they pay homage to the Free Speech Movement of the early 1960's. I thought the bar area looked interesting because of that! It was busy when we arrived for dinner before a concert but we were seated at a table right away in the courtyard by a very friendly and efficient server. We ordered a couple beers while we looked over the menu. My husband ended up choosing their Blue and Gold Burger (with a veggie Beyond Burger patty) which came with a not very generous serving of fries while I had their Vegan Chili. We shared our meals and agreed they could have tasted much better. The blue cheese in the burger helped to elevate the flavor but otherwise it was just ok. My chili was a disappointment. It was pretty flavorless. It really could use a side of salsa and/or the option of adding shredded cheese. But our server was great and the ambiance was cool!

Been here a few times after banquet events and it's always a good experience with pitchers of beer and a casual environment. Their food is a little on the pricier end, but they have some solid options that taste good in spite of the cost.Went here with some friends for a drink. Saw they had a taco special for 2 tacos and a beer for $13 which isn't the cheapest, but booze and food was something I couldn't pass up. The chicken one was more flavorful than the beef one I got, but I wasn't expecting gourmet tacos and was still happy with what I ordered.Had trouble deciding on the beer & the bartender was nice to let me sample a few. Settled on their rice lager since I wasn't the biggest fan on IPAs. Fire alarm for pulled mid eating and I had to leave, but eventually everything got sorted out and we went back to their outdoor patio.Wouldn't go here alone, but it's a nice place for friends & groups

Honestly pleasantly surprised by this place! I actually heard about it at the very beginning of college 4 years ago, but never ended up coming. On the last day of classes 4 years later though, my friends and I decided to come here for a late dinner and potentially drinks. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and we got a table outside. You seat yourselves, and then a waiter / waitress comes to take your order.We got the brussels sprouts to share and I got the bbq chicken wings. The wings themselves were fine, nothing special to them but nothing really bad either. However, the brussels sprouts were soo good. I think they first fried them, and then coated them in a delicious sweet and savory sauce that made them so addicting. I think I could've just eaten that as my entree alone :) We didn't end up getting drinks, but I did really like the vibe here!

Came here for dinner and fell in love with the food! I ordered the blue and gold burger and substituted fries with tators tots, oh my god SOOOOO good. Tator tot fricken Heaven. Abe was the bartender and recommended a gin and elderberry cocktail. Very refreshing! He was very knowledgeable on the drinks. The employee Liz was hyping me up on my outfit and she has just earned a new regular! I will definitely be bringing my friends.

Major dark academia vibes! But I wouldn't expect anything less than a pub right across the street from the Cal campus. Definitely a great place to meet up with friends for a quick bite and drink. I'm absolutely in love with the vibe in there. There's a long tables, small tables for two and a fireplace. Whether you're with a large group, a date or need to unwind solo, there's a spot for you.Service here is phenomenal. Our server was very knowledgeable about the different brews they had on tap and was able to recommend something that tickled the pallet of each person in our group. I honestly felt like he went above and beyond and despite the very busy evening, he was able to check in on us and keep the drinks flowing.The food here is honestly pretty basic, I wouldn't say its terrible but it's nothing to write home about. However, I'm still giving this place 5 stars because of the aesthetic, extensive tap selection and amazing service. I would definitely come back here, I would just eat beforehand.

The tacos were small but delicious. The beer was good. The waitress was charming and attentive. I've never been so cold in a restaurant in my life. I'll come back in the spring.

The ambiance was good, but the food was pretty expensive for the portion sizes. Service was prompt.

Just want to call out the iron cookie dessert for being a fake. That was nothing more than a pre-packaged Costco-style large cookie, microwaved, tossed into a skillet, and given a scoop of ice cream on top. The cookie was smaller than the skillet so it looked pretty sad sitting in a skillet it hadn't even been baked in. The fish tacos were a single fish stick in a tortilla (with good slaw and aioli) but still, one fish stick. The place gets two stars for the ambiance , kind service, and delicious tater tots.
