Fretwells in Kingston upon Hull, City of

Muy parecido a todos los pubs en el casco antiguo, gran ambiente todo un pozo peculiar con una sensación de moda antigua encantadora. Buena cerveza y gran personal. Fretwells tiene una bonita zona de estar al aire libre con calentadores en la parte trasera en un pequeño patio. Silla de barberos de moda fresca en la zona de estar. Si estás en el casco antiguo recomendaría una visita

It was really fun playing the pinball machines and table football. Great atmosphere.

Great beer. Fantastic atmosphere. Knowledgeable staff.

Fantastic pub with a very unique feel! Great selection of beer/ale/spirits and a warm friendly atmosphere 👌🏼

Another great drinking hole in 'Ull with a large selection of real ales!

Servicio absolutamente basura camarera no intrested. Falta de elección de cervezas. Traté de diferentes ales pálidos ambos horribles como si la cerveza había estado en las tuberías durante mucho tiempo. Muy horrible. No volveré a visitar el pub. Basura

Love this place it's quirky an cosy

Great place for a beer or five, good range of real ales. For those who want lager or cider there is bottle verity. Staff are friendly and make you feel welcome. No food is served here, just snacks. There is a small games room where you can unwind and have abit of fun.

Super, smashing, marvellous, great.

Although the building was previously a printers, it is very convincing as an "old" pub. They have a nice range of beers, all served well. A separate games room has plenty of arcade games, but also a good value bar billiards table.

Absolutely fantastic pub, warm welcome, really friendly staff, I love the quirky pub with it's dentist chair and game room

Good beer and even better retro games!

Good offering of beers and spirits staff friendly would recommend

Always part of my pub crawl around Ull. Some great beers to choose from Staff always smiling too

Fantastic pub if you are into your retro games. Beer was bang on and the staff were great 👍

Beautiful old town pub. Good beer.

How pubs should be. Great place, great beer.

But the games room expected pool and darts walked in and found pin ball machines . Like wow!! Unbelievable! Big shout out to the landlord alan aswell

Nice pub in the old town, staff great. Good beer. Well worth a visit

Fab little pub in the centre of Hull... Great beers and atmosphere

Ace little pub, great atmosphere and nice staff. Very welcoming.

Fretwells only been open for a couple of years in the former Printworks of the same name. The owner has done a fantastic job of making a new pub look at though it's 200 years old. This is a proper three room pub like pubs used to be. A nice spacious bar with views over scale Lane and High Street. Separate Lounge and an excellent separate games room, with five pinball machines, a table football games and a rare 1920's bar billiards table, with a qr code so you can keep score with an app on your phone, And an Internet jukebox in the games room. Excellent often changing good choice of cask conditioned ales and other beers including a very nice elderflower larger, very Friendly staff. Not dog friendly. Outside seating area in the courtyard. Pensioners, take your bus pass, and you will get a discount on your beer. Highly recommended. Check opening times.

A lot bigger than it looks and has a proper pub feel... nice if you're wanting a chilled drink, or taking someone on a date. and the bar staff a really nice. Usually the place you end up chatting with randoms.

Went in for a drink with my partner for the bar staff to say your banned..😯.. not done anything to be banned for ..what a joke...get rid of that ella ..she's not giving lion and key or fretwell any credit been going in there years just can't believe this 😡

Always a great choice of beer's good atmosphere and great food.

Banned me for using a laptop in their premises because it (uses electricity) never in my life have I heard such nonsense AVOID - this will be plastered allover my large Facebook following in Hull

Stopped for a pint. Lovely place in the old town.

Friendly pub with a good range of beers and really good atmosphere.

We only came in here as the historic pub close by didn't open until 6pm for some reason. So glad we did as lovely service, great beers and nice atmosphere. Lots of couples in here and women having after work drinks which is always a sign of a classy place. Gents will find the toilets entertaining with goals in the urinals and great anti golf poster... Got a super pinball room if that's your thing. No food but few yards away is the Lion and Key with same owners which is just is great too and does pub food. We will 100% come back to both

Very nice pub, usually a good choice of beers. Can get very busy, staff very friendly and good reductions for oldies

Great place, friendly staff, good choice of beers.

Excellent ales although quiet when we visited.

Great little bar with a good selection of real ales. Friendly and knowledgeable staff too.

Lovely place, very friendly and good covid control. Good choice of beers and spirits. Still friendly, still good choice of everything but cocktails, thankfully. Bit noisy today, group of chaps in the back room really rowdy. We wanted a quiet pint so we moved on.

Great beers and good atmosphere.

Friendly, quirky spot with nice atmosphere

My 1st time in Fretwells, a lovely friendly pub with plenty of charm and a nice atmosphere.

Nice little place tucked away in the old town. Plenty of atmosphere and good friendly service.

First time we've been in this pub nice cosy little place definitely go in again

Hull Old Town pub with typical atmosphere, although ale choice was a little limited.

Luv that old style pub and the games room was a pleasant surprise

Always love going here, always friendly staff and owners, never feel more at home in a pub than I do this one or it's Brother across the road :)

Great selection of drinks very friendly atmosphere, and staff. I would recommend calling in

Lovely old fashioned pub with friendly staff. Plus pensioners rates available. Bus and Train time signs on display

Nice pub with a great selection of Ales and a friendly welcome.

Lovely old pub. Nice atmosphere. Worth a visit when in the old town.

A sympathetic refurbishment has transformed this place into a fascinating bar in the heart of the Old Town. Service was excellent. Selection of real ales was very good and served well

Really enjoyed this pub. Had a great atmosphere, decent selection of beer and nice friendly staff.

Great pub in the Old Town of Hull. Good atmosphere and beer plus oldies get discount on their beer!!!

Amazing pub love the pinball machines as I scored a massive score while I was there

A great place to visit for a few drink, day or night.

Love this pub. Lovely atmosphere and a nice range of beers. Staff are always friendly and make you feel welcome. The games room is a nice little quirk too.

Very nice pub and friendly staff

A very quirky old pub in the heart of old town Hull. So full of character and pinball machines. You been like you are settling back in time when you walk through the doors.

Great pub, excellent service and selection of beers and tasty stout. Different rooms inside including games room. Excellent deco and great idea to have electronic bus and train times boards. Hope to return again

After waiting at the bar for over ten minutes to be told I had to wait my turn despite three other people who turned up after me and were served before me the bar staff decided I was being rude refused to serve me and asked me to leave the bar. I simply commented that I had been waiting a while and other people were being served before me when it was perfectly clear I had been there for some time. The attitude of the bar staff was appalling clearly don't know what they're doing and tbh I will never visit the pub again

Been here a few times now and it's a great pub.Plenty of choice of beers etc and nice atmosphere. Bar staff are excellent and service is 2nd to none. Its certainly on our agenda now and looking forward to our next visit

Jeden z najfajniejszych pubów w okolicy, super klimat, super wystrój, obsługa piękna i zawsze uśmiechnięta. Jest miejsce aby posiedzieć i pogadać, zagrać w snooker czy na automatach. Z przyjemnością tam się zatrzymuje za każdym razem gdy tylko tam przechodzę

Great little bar in old town. Proper slice of old school Hull

Nice bar I'd to look old fashioned

Great pub with a nice atmosphere. Games room and a heated beer garden.

Apparently this pub has been open for four years First time I have noticed it though a bit tucked away at the end of Scale Lane It’s friendly and it’s decorated as if it’s an old pub that’s been there ages. Anyway I visited with a friend (we are both retired) and we stayed and had a few beers and there was a decent choice of real ales. Also as a bonus if you are over 65 ….which we both are 😆 You get a 20% discount which I have never seen at any pub before We will visit again for sure…👍

Nice friendly pub with some very nice Ales worth a visit

Great to be in the place good atmospherewith good staff good range off drink

A hidden gem, would recommend, the games room is a great addition to anyone who loves old arcade machines, billiards, snes games or table football plus great real ales to try

Tried to visit to with my partner and 1 year child. The place was empty but refused entry as 'we dont allow children in here'

Great pub with old style games room

Nice pub only visited for COVID tests as filming in old town

Love this bar, great ales , atmosphere. Lovely surroundings

Great Pub , Great staff , Great hand pulled beers ...nice old town pub they always make you feel welcome ..we travel from Pontefract every 5/6 weeks & stay in old town & first pub is Fretwells.....

Very good Hull bar and love the way they've arranged it in this iconic building. I used to pick up stationary items here in 1971 when working in Town Planning. Gave me the shivers to think of that but life always rearranges itself in Hull! Xx

Great pub in one of Hull's best area's. Nice selection of beer and a decent atmosphere make it a must visit place in Hull's old town.

One of the best little pubs in Hull

Popped into Fretwells for pre-dinner drinks a couple of weeks ago, during a one night stopover in Hull. Lovely place - until we started chatting to the owner who was unbelievably rude. He was determined to be confrontational about Covid conspiracy issues and would not let go. We left as soon as it was politic to do so. Embarrassing.

Circulates anti-vaccine/covid denial propaganda.

Love this place just quaint and meant to be, so many interesting nik naks.

Great pub in hull Lovely staff landlord and landlady the best

Absolutely love this place. The decor is amazing, such a qwerk to it. Drinks selection is great with plenty for all taste. This place is on my definite goto places in Hull.

This pub is beautiful to look at, cosy and serves lovely drinks. It is, however anti-vax and misogynistic. There are QR codes taking you to conspiracy websites about COVID on the walls and the toilets are decorated with "humorous" misogyny. What a shame for such a lovely place. Will never be back.

Pleasant, old-fashioned local pub apparently owned by the same people as the Lion and Key on the opposite corner. Casks ales, friendly staff bigger than it looks from outside including a games room. It also has several phone charger points.

It's a really cool spot. There's a lively side and a quite side with a good atmosphere overall.

Love Fretwells as it has the feel of a traditional local pub despite being in the heart of the City. Always great service and a wonderful atmosphere.

Strange to go into a pub that closes at 10, but great atmosphere, friendly staff and punters, reasonable prices with plenty of choice. Top drawer!

Good ales and comfortable ambience

Lovely quaint place to have a wine and a catch up. Nice selection of beer on offer . Great staff .

Great place, welcoming and friendly

Nice bar and beer but went in at 10 on a Saturday night (we didn't know it shut at 10) then was getting told to drink up bar staff should of said it was closing instead of serving us

Quaint quirky bar and bigger inside than it looks from the outside, bar prices not the cheapest but a nice drink

Very nice Bar friendly staff good Ale too, recommend it.

Comfortable experience with friends.

Nice pub in the old town. Good choice of ales and nice atmosphere but get there early as they close at 10pm on Saturday night.

Amazing reproduction of a proper ancient pub in historic Hull

Nice pub,good atmosphere, decent folks and bar staff

Cashed in my pension early for a round....otherwise really nice place...

A very nice and welcoming pub with a great atmosphere. The staff is fantastic and will gladly have a chat with you while you're having a few pints. The quality of the drinks is always great and the range varies from nice light hoppy beers to darker stouts with a wide pallet of a myriad of chocolate and almost coffee like notes. Overall a great pub for a classic British pub experience; however if you're looking for something more modern and youthful it might not be a place for you.

Cosy traditional old type pub with great range of real ales.

Went for drinks in here on Saturday - It was a great little place to have drinks with friends! A great selection of real ales too!

Very traditional pub and full of character

Friendly real ale pub provides free use of board games

Love this quirky pub - loads of seating, fab ales!!!
