Review from Rosalyn A.
Halifax, NS
When you just want to have some good beer in a pub and not pay cover, this is your place. On a Friday night, it seems Halifax pubs like to charge cover...silly pubs!
When we went they had $10 pitchers of beer (Moosehead, Canadian, and a few others) YAY! Cheap beer. As far as the menu, we only had the mozza stick appy, it was delicious and perfectly cooked, all stringy and delicious. Only downside; it was served with mayo, not ranch or marinara sauce (I know the horror!!). Everyone seemed to be enjoying the pizza and nachos (every table at at least 2 of each on it) so I definitely will be back to try more.
The pub was nice, dark, but not too dark, classic semi run down pub filled with great staff and people just wanting to have a good time.
Only negative would be the bathrooms, grungy toilets and sink. Its pretty bad when you don't even want to touch the soap dispenser because its so dirty. -

Last year when my mother came to visit, we ordered Freeman's Pizza in, and were horrified to find the toppings under the cheese and the pizza stone cold. I vowed never to eat there again.
Fast forward a year of people telling me that it's their favourite pie in Halifax, but still gave me cold feet. That was until I was forced to attend through a gathering of people I did not know.
I went to meet them at the giant 10 seater table and waited over an hour (they never showed, and never cancelled the reservation....kids)
So instead of running out, I gave Freeman's Little New York a second chance...
First of all, the restaurant is almost pitch black, even in the day, so much so that it hurt my eyes between the contrast.
After perusing the menu I first chose a banana milkshake. I wouldn't call it so much a milkshake, but a smoothie due to the large ice crystals in the mix. However, it was good enough to order, first a lime flavoured one (but the waitress told me that it wasn't really limey enough so I didn't order it), then a delicious mango one.
Then came the pizza. Oh lord help me, it was one of the worst pizza's I have EVER eaten. The cheese slid everywhere, but the worst part was the copious and gooey sauce that left a bad taste in my mouth, literally. Every New Yorker pizza eater knows that the foundation of a good pizza is the sauce, so this was unforgivable. I was shocked and saddened that anybody would say this is their favourite pizza in town, when there are much better options (The Argyle and Morris East)
The one bright point besides the milkshakes were the staff. They were all perfect angels. The waitresses never came to rush me out of the giant table, and offered frank advice as well as great casual conversation.
Bottom line: If your friends from New York come up, do not take them to Freeman's, they might just get back on the plane and go home. -

Still gets the three stars, but apparently nachos can be screwed up...

Freeman's doesn't get top grades for food, which, at best, I will describe as OK-- My friend, her… Read more »

Even though Freeman's doesn't technically offer the all day breakfast that I love so much, it is the only place in our fair city that you can buy breakfast during the wee hours of the morning. Freeman's is known for its extended hours, open until 5am every day. Whether you are on your way home from a night out on the town (Freeman's is located right across from Cheers) or just an early riser, this is a great place to check out for a hearty start to your day.
The pizza at Freeman's is a major positive note. Variety and decent prices, along with the option of purchasing by the slice or the pan can please any picky pizza lover. On Fridays Freeman's has a deal on appetizers, buy a drink (alcoholic beverage) and get a free app! I recommend the Mozza Sticks, they taste great, but without the discount they can be pricey (when you consider the small portion you receive).
The only issue I've had at Freeman's is with the service. On busy nights it can take a while to get your meals. I've had eyes rolled at me by waitresses here, but then again I WAS ordering extra bacon with my breakfast at 3am.
Hot Hint: Freeman's just started hosting trivia every Wednesday night, it's a great time!Listed in: Night Moves, All Day Breakfasts

Ever finish up one of those epic nights and there's just nothing else you want accept bacon and eggs? Well here's one of the only places in the city I've found that will do that for you at 2am. On top of that they make some of the best pizza in the city in between many other delicious items listed on the menu.
A lot of late night food venues around town thrive off of the tipsy crowd leaving the bars and in search of that greasy or cheesy fix before bed. However I have found that a lot of these places aren't very welcoming. After a little time in Freeman's to gross over the menu and chat with the incredibly friendly staff, you start to feel a at home. On busier nights things can get a little slower and stress levels can rise but I haven't had an unwelcoming experience yet. It is certainly a nice change from the drunken masses spilling into the streets at the infamous "pizza corner" a few blocks down the road.
Whether you're heading here at 2am or 2pm it's definitely a great choice. There's nothing outrageously priced on the menu and you certainly get what you pay for. With a full bar open until 2am you can find whatever you need to wash down that "New York Style" pizza, burger or breakfast. They've also got a great deal on "Free Food Fridays," buy a drink and you're getting your appetizer for free. Not many places can beat that. -

You gotta give it up to Freemans for years of putting up with the people that stagger in there until 5am. Located near Boomers and across from Cheers I can just imagine...
Or they could go to Freemans for one of the tastiest pizza's. Topped to the nines with whatever you chose it will leave your taste buds delighted. I would recommend that when you go if you are having one of those quiet nights to get there before 11pm so that you can enjoy yourself.
Great place to grab a slice on the way home but as well the menu is stacked with some all time favourites.
