Getting to Freda's

Getting to Freda's is easy. 

The first job is getting to Chippendale. 

You can find directions to Chippendale via our Google Places page which is located here!

Step 1. Once you are in Chippendale on Regent Street, keep you eyes out for our neighbours fibreglass tongue (it's on the left of the photo above), then take the laneway to the right of it.

Step 2. Keep an eye out for our sign on the gate at the front.

Step 3. Then take the grey door down the end on the left!
