It is a rather interesting place, the cocktails are really very good, indeed. The atmosphere is, at times, a bit cold.
The cocktails are great, though.
Make sure you find the entrance...

The service has always been fine when I've been here, it's not the sort of place to get table service as reviewer below has questioned. If you require that go somewhere else!

One of London's best underground bars, great atmosphere, nice people and drinks are awesome.

Fav drinks vary but recently the Boris Tea has been going down extreemely well.

I don't doubt that the atmosphere is sometimes good. And I don't doubt that the drinks aren't out of this world. However, my own personal experience of Freud was ghastly! A good friend took me there yesterday evening to celebrate my 30th birthday. The barman who served us was extremely rude (not to mention scruffy). Whilst seeing to our order he knocked my cocktail glass spilling the contents down the side of the glass and over the bar. Now instead of apologising or making light of this small incident, as any well educated person would be inclined to do, he appeared to become quite cross. He then attempted to mop up the mess and clean the sides and stem of my glass with paper towel. To be frank this was all very messy and the glass didn't look nice. I then asked if I could have a clean glass. He mumbled something before obliging reluctantly - all the while with a face like thunder. When he had eventually finished sorting our drinks my friend commented on how disappointed he was at the service. With this the barman promptly snatched our drinks from us and asked us to leave. We were stunned! Never have either of us received such poor and downright rude service before. Needless to say we headed off into Soho where the service was much better and we had a fabulous time. I would avoid this bar like the plague!

the atmosphere in here always has a good buzz and the fallen angel cocktail is truly heavenly

Freud gave me possibly the worse service I have received in a long time. It took 15 minutes to bring three drinks to our table and we were the only customers there on a Sunday lunchtime! Freud could also do with a good clean. There are much better places to eat and drink in the area.

I can't get enough of Freud it always has a warm friendly atmosphere and a great mix of people, from the casual after-work drinkers to the hardcore pre-clubbers. And they do a really great pint of amazing fresh cocktail for a great price. You can't go wrong at Freud.

I'm no psychology student, but the fact you have to ask for a special key for the men's lavs (which is out the door, across the road) would have Freud scratching his head. Dunno if it's something to do with men's dirty bits or what, but it's the first time I thought us fella's had drawn the short straw toilet-wise.
Still, Freuds has some great tucker and they've got some great foreign beers - don't drink too many though - you may need the loo.

I have been to Freud a few times, and keep going back. I always recommend it to my friends.

The cocktails are superb, and the atmosphere is very friendly and cosy.

A great advantage is you don't have to dress up too much, lots of people will come here after work for a drink on a Friday.
Very friendly and great looking barmen!
