FREE HOUSE | Craft Beer Hall

We had tried their sister restaurant Posto multiple times, but it was the first time we went to Free House. The food was amazing, especially their feature pasta. They also let us use a 20% off from our Posto receipt, and gave us a new one to use in Posto.

Ordered food at 11:15 am still waiting for a sandwich & dip T 12:15 . The sup came and the fried sage is to be fried on clean oil so to not Absorb the flavours of anything else. These tasted to be cooked In the dirtiest oil & was burnt. Imagine the disappointment after waiting an hour for a breakfast sandwich h & dip. I will NEVER WASTE MY MONEY HERE AGAIN. Ever. Don’t waste your money. Not the server fault when there’s 3 people in there on a Saturday morning. No discount, no apologies. Nothing. There is no railing to get in up the stairs so anyone with physical limitations be SOL

We decided to come here because we wanted to check out the Kensington area of the city for our first time. We ordered the pork chop, Reuben and the pork belly. They were amazing! The porkchop also came with duckfat potatoes which were out of this world! My friends scarfed down their food too and were very excited to return there next time they came to town. The server was super nice and seemed to enjoy his job. The restaurant is clean and looks so cool inside and I guess if you're that big of a fan of the place, they have merch up front. Overall I would recommend this place to everyone!

Great drinks, fries were delicious! We sat out on the patio and we were served right away. We ordered some drinks and food. The drinks took a little bit to come. The fries were great and the pizza was pretty good, it needed a bit more cheese. The food also took a little while to come out. It was busy when we were there so it was understandable. Staff were friendly - they were doing their best to serve everyone and you could tell they we’re trying to cover a lot of tables at once. Overall we enjoyed our food and drinks. There wasn’t really anything too special or memorable that I would come back right away. But it’s good option for a bar with a roof top patio and street patio in Kensington.

Free house has a really good happy hour and their menu has many different things and lots of plates for sharing, great for a social atmosphere at a bar. Lots of good options for beer, cocktails, and even wine. I got the spicy chicken sandwich, I personally did not like the sauce on it at all but every other aspect of it was on point. Chicken was juicy and crispy. The fries were awesome, extremely salty - like burn your mouth salty - but I loved them. And there were tons of fries on the plate! And I always like a place that leaves water on the table. Good choice to go if you’re in the area but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. Unfortunately, the service wasn’t great. The place is new, so I give some benefit of the doubt there. It took quite a long time to receive our food, or just to get refills of our beer.

Sat upstairs in the beautiful outdoor patio. Nice plants and spacious. Great views and people watching, the chairs were uncomfortable though. Nice servers, a little slow on service but loads of patience for hard workers who just need a few more people working those busy times. Management should address this so I can give 5 stars next time. Cocktails, beer and wine selections were great. Had the spicy Marie and the Caesar - both well made and unique. Had the Cubano, smashed beets with goat cheese and the braised lamb platter. Very impressed with this "pub" food. It was definitely elevated, thoughtful and delicious. (Not the gravy though - that was not good). Particularly impressed by the pork belly on the Cubano, the various fresh herbs and flavours on the lamb platter and the house pickles. Our server, Marie, was very helpful and had great suggestions. The overall reno is light, clean and airy but the upstairs outdoor bathroom could use some love. We'll be back and are looking forward to some live music. Thanks guys!

Very nice rooftop patio with a good amount of tables. Going for the happy hours is a must! Great selection of craft beers and sours and they all taste really good. Can't say I like the sandwiches much, but the flatbreads are great.

Had a wonderful afternoon here. Wonderful small plates - fritters, beef tartar, and summer vegetables were fabulous. Service was friendly and welcoming! Natasha took care of us and did a great job!
