Description

Bistro Freddie is a design lead and atmospheric 45-cover British-French bistro and counter-top in the heart of Shoreditch. The menu is decadent with some seriously nostalgic French classics, which show case the best of British produce. The wine menu is classic, grown up and highlights the fantastic wines of un-sung French wine producers.
Our elevated service is led by General Manager, Piotr Maruszczak, (previously Frenchie) who’s joined by Head Chef, Alex Reynolds (previously Eline).
