    Freemans

    2 Freeman Alley off Rivington St (between Bowery and Chrystie Sts)
    Lower East Side  | Map

    212-420-0012

    Subway: F, V to Lower East Side–Second Ave  | Directions

    Prices

    Average main course: $19. AmEx, MC, V.

    Description
    Lurking at the end of a graffiti-marked alley, Freemans, with its colonial tavern-meets-hunting lodge style, has found a welcome home with retro-loving Lower East Siders. A mounted, snow-white swan stares you down at the entrance, while, further in, garage-sale oil paintings and moose antlers serve as backdrop to a curved zinc bar. The menu recalls a simpler time—think 1950s supper party: devils on horseback (prunes stuffed with Stilton cheese and wrapped in bacon); rum-soaked ribs, the meat falling off the bone with a gentle nudge from the fork; and stiff cocktails that’ll get you good and sauced.
