The idea behind The Free Man is to combine our great food, music, and atmosphere to make a new “destination” in the area. We know that our first priority is making the location work as a delicious cajun cafe that will bring people into Deep Ellum from all over Dallas. We want people to trust that when they come down to The Free Man, they are going to have a good time and have a unique lunch or dinner experience. The day starts with a well priced lunch, with food to die over. Come back in for Happy Hour from 4-7 PM $2 Ziegen & Shock Top drafts, $5 Frozen drinks and selected half price appetizers. Did you know we have 1o musical acts a week? We have live jazz on Friday & Saturday nights from 7-10
Plus live Jazz on Sundays from 2-5 in the afternoon.

@10:00 O’clock 7 days a week, hang on to your hats because you never know what alt-rock, alt-country, or just plain cool act will be playing, wel you would know if you checked our calendar at www.freemandallas.com
