Went to the new homewood location and it was amazing! Didn’t have to make reservations and there was a minimal wait time on a friday night! If they have the sausage and pepper flatbread on the special menu, get it! It cannot be beat!

I had an exceptional experience at Freddy's Wine Bar on Highland Ave! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the sophisticated yet cozy atmosphere. The decor is stylish, with a perfect balance of elegance and comfort, making it an ideal spot for wine lovers.
The wine selection is incredible, featuring a wide range of both local and international options. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about wine, and they provided excellent recommendations based on my preferences. I also tried the Standard Charcuterie Board which included 2 Charcuterie with 2 Cheeses' which was perfectly paired with a delicious red wine.
The service was top-notch – attentive, friendly, and never rushed. They took the time to explain the nuances of the wines and made the entire experience feel special.
Whether you're a wine connoisseur or just looking for a great place to unwind with friends, Freddy's Wine Bar is a must-visit. I'll definitely be returning to explore more of their fantastic wine offerings!

We should have known to leave when the request for a medium-rare burger was met with an awkward pause, as the server shared that it is already pre-cooked. Surely, the burger that cost $16 or so was out in some two minutes. I ordered an okay tomato salad without meat but it arrived with chunks of meat that I had to fish out. An underwhelming experience that put Freddy’s on our “won’t return” list, so two stars feels rather generous. The friendly server Destiny is the only thing that made up for the disappointment.

We throughly enjoyed our evening! Freddy’s is where my husband and I had our first date and then returned for our one year wedding anniversary. The staff were so kind, and excited to celebrate with us. They provided us with a celebratory drink of champagne and a desert in addition to being excited to hear our story. I would highly recommend this place for any occasion!

While I was disappointed to be served a drink different than what I ordered, the overall experience was still enjoyable thanks to great company and a great atmosphere.

Loved this place! Great service and wonderful cocktails. Can’t wait to go
Staff is hit or miss, but I think they've been doing some work on that. Food is always consistently delicious, and so is the wine. It's probably the best Old Fashioned cocktail in Birmingham.
Parking: Parking is off Highland Avenue and they don't open until 4pm soooo...good luck with finding a good spot close by ?

We love everything about Freddy’s. They embrace our whole family- kids & dogs included. Best Charcuterie options in town!

They have temporary hours due to the entire staff walking out for multiple ignored complaints about the store managers creepy predatory behavior. Good on the old staff!

Does not care about female staff or guests and their safety. Prioritizes predatory behavior. Avoid at all costs.

Terrible approach towards female staff members
