Great spot, awesome food and very friendly service. Had a pizza, it was really fresh. They have a pretty big menu so lots of different things to try. Prices are very reasonable as well.

Tried it for the 1st time and was not disappointed. So cozy inside and the food was delicious . Support a local business that has earned a stamp of excellence.

We stopped in for the first time this evening and loved it, the Cod was great and the veggie pizza with feta on it was to die for . Very friendly staff made you feel welcome the whole time we were there , will be one of our go to places .

Visited here last night and found some very good food. Our server was Riley and she was a delight. We were greeted immediately and our drink order was taken. My wife was disappointed that they didn't carry any wines but she found the LI iced tea to be a good substitute. The cheese sticks are home made and very good. The spinach dip was homemade with, get this, real spinach. Nothing frozen. The Nashville chicken sandwich had a decent size piece of chicken with a good slaw and an Asian zing sauce. Very tasty. The onion rings were incredible. They were the lightest thinnest onion rings I've had in years and a huge plate was only $5.00. My wife had an Italian hoagie and it was loaded with fillings.There's not much decor but the food will get you past that.

Good food, good drinks! The Apple Cider Margarita was a very unique seasonal twist on a well loved classic. The pizza was great, I ate a whole Veggie Lovers Pizza.I thought it was super cute that there was a selection of board games off to the side, so it looked like it could be a great family hangout spot.

We have been going here for almost a year, at least once a week. We like the beers that are made by the owner, the food served, and the friendly atmosphere.
We highly recommend EF!

Traveling up the Allegheny River, found this gem in Freeport! Our Stromboli and beer-battered cod were excellent. Their brewed beer was an added bonus!!!
I have eaten here many of times. The beer is fantastic and the kinds change. I have had the brisket tacos and the ribs................... can't get better. Rylie waited on us and fabulous!

Everything about Essentials has really improved since it first opened a fairly long while ago.Their food is good for something local and quick and their portions sizes are good too.The service is fast as well. The ladies that work there are super kind!I do wish there was more to the inside of the place itself. There isn’t that many places to sit and it’s pretty bare
