Soppin Shrimp
Misty A.

First time at Fred's Around the Corner and was so impressed with the food, service, and flavor. We ordered the Soppin Shrimp and it was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.

Food: A+ Service: A+ Ambiance: A+ This was our first time and it won't be our last. We walked right in and ordered at the bar. We were given a number and picked a table close to the windows. We waited a good amount of time for the food, but it was well worth it. Best bowl of rice and beans I've ever had. I will now dream of those. We sat there silently shoveling our faces. Tonight was chess night and it was a blast. Boards were provided and participants were friendly. They also have board games available for others. Will be visiting again soon.

Great food and great prices! Love the array of options and the service is great! You can also purchase packs of beer from their coolers if interested!

A yearly work trip to Knoxville had me heading to the Knoxville Brew Hub for a couple of beers. Looks like this eatery is now part of the establishment. I had the po boy shrimp tacos, blackened and dirty. It was delicious.

triple jambalaya and a fallen soldier

it's like cheers- where everybody knows your name! except they have better beer...and better food...and a bunch of hot sauces... and the staff is even more phenomenal... and it's not called cheers... and it's not in boston. so, actually it's not like cheers at all... still- you need to check it out, get a pint, get some great grub, meet good people and leave with a smile on your face! then do it again.

Shrimp tacos, Naughty but Nice, with red beans and rice as a side.

We've been to Knox Brew Hub before, but this was the first time since they started Fred's Beans & Rice. It's usually very quiet, but this day they were broadcasting a soccer game along with hosting some very vociferous fans. So it was a bit loud...until the game ended. The staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. We ordered our beers at the bar, then chose our seats and reviewed the menu. After making our selection, we returned to the bar to place our order and be re-seated. The Brunch Shrimp Tacos (Naughty but Nice) were excellent. Great flavor without being too spicy. I enjoyed the potato salad as well. The side of red beans and rice was a bit too spicy for me though. So my wife ate those! A bartender came around frequently to clear our table and check on us. Overall, a good, casual place to stop for lunch or dinner.

It is located within the Knox Brew Hub . If you aren't a beer drinker it's still totally worth a trip here. ( BTW you can just order a coke if you don't want a beer) If you are a beer drinker then there's a great selection & the food is wonderful. I've eaten the po' boys, the gumbo & the red beans & rice . Everything is very tasty with the right amount of spice. The staff are very friendly & make you feel welcomed . I can't wait to go back to try more.

One word-AWESOME! We happened up on Fred's Beans and Rice one Wednesday on Union Ave. The staff was helpful and friendly and the environment was cool and laid back. They have 20+ craft beer selections reppin' various breweries around town. And lastly, the food was the absolute BEST! We had the Smothered red beans and rice with blackened chicken and shrimp, and jambalaya The owner, Zack was super friendly and knowledgeable! We will definitely come here again!

Smothered Bowl
Stefan M.

Really enjoyed everything. Atmosphere, food, service, and drink. Jambalaya was awesome! If you're tender mouth, it's a spicy just right. Red beans and rice is good. Definitely will be back to try everything soon

Good food and fast service. The cheesesteak is the perfect size for lunch and was ready in less than 15 minutes.

We popped in because we wanted a beer before the St. Patrick's Day parade. We ended up staying here…read morea few hours because you could see the parade from the window. It wasn't crowded inside, there are a lot of seating options for big or small groups. Several tables could seat at least 6. Michael was bartending when we went. He did a great job at making us feel like locals! He was attentive even though it was quite busy from people coming in from the parade. The arcade area was pretty cool. Each side had a bar, but only one was open at the time we went. We didn't get food, but it looked like they had some yummy options from what we saw get delivered to other tables. The music was good. The people were friendly as well. This is definitely a place we would return to if we come back in town!

Give a 4 but was really thinking 3.5 stars just because of the food (I didn't order any drinks and…read moreit was a quick stop in). I saw the ramen on the Yelp pictures and it spoke to me, so I walked in and ordered some. You have to stand in line at the bar to order your food so that took awhile, but the food came out pretty quick. I wasn't too impressed with the ramen, and I've had ramen all over the world. The broth was good, I enjoyed the spicy flavor. However, having tomatoes in the ramen was weird and I didn't enjoy that. My biggest complaint is there was very little meat in the ramen, like 2 small chunks of brisket. It seems like a great place to have drinks and hang out, but as far as the food it was meh to me.

Suttree's High Gravity Tavern - Large list of on tap beers, really friendly service. Didn't try any, but the ramen looks amazing. We will definitely return.

Came here on a Sunday, it had just snowed the night before so the restaurant wasn't super busy, but…read moreit still had a good crowd. We had heard of this place for a while and wanted to check it out and we're so glad we did. The food and service were amazing. Walking in it's a narrow restaurant, that has a bar on one side and tables on the other with kinda a rustic feel to it. We were seated immediately and our drink orders were taken. Since we hadn't been there before we got water and then pursued the menu a little for drinks. I had a question between two drinks and the server was very good at describing the drinks and ultimately decided to try the Darryl Strawberry, while my husband got the Nor'easter. The drinks came out and they were really good. They weren't overly strong, you could taste the bourbon in each of them, but it wasn't overpowering. For food we got the OPA! to start and then the Billy for me and the Mother Clucker for him. The OPA was awesome. It's pan seared feta with honey and served with fresh bread. The honey added a little extra sweetness to the feta which went really nicely with the crusty bread. The Billy had goat cheese, bacon, onions and, a tomato jam on it. It was delicious. The creamy goat cheese with the bacon and smokey tomato jam all went amazingly together. I got onion rings as my side, which were crunchy hot and so so good. The Mother Clucker was also really good. I only had a bite of it to try, but was definitely impressed. My husband upgraded to the duck fat fries which were out of this world. Super crunchy, great flavor. Our server kept checking back on us the whole time making sure we were satisfied with our drinks and food, but we had absolutely no complaints. This is a great place for a date if you want good food or to hang out with friends. We will definitely be back.

Do all restaurants decline over time? Think this one is…read morehanging on by popularity not quality. Burger overcooked & mac&cheese, cold, the m&c last visit was night and day. Fries quite lackluster and tasted like it was cooked in very old grease. Got the old fashion on point.
