    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, nuff said

    Over easy eggs were perfect. Crispy thick sliced bacon cooked exactly as ordered. The two large lemon ricotta pancakes were incredible. Don’t miss Fred’s.

    Good breakfast spot near best Sausalito sights and activities

    Scrambled eggs are extra fluffy at this traditional Sausalito cafe. Well known to Sausalito locals. Convenient location with easy street parking. Walking distance from numerous marinas, schoonmaker beach, and the bay model.

    Fast and furiously cooking since 1966...

    This local tiny coffee shop earned it's 5 stars: Fresh hot food (and coffee), quick Service, good Price, excellent Presentation and Character. Suggest you share "Fred's bacon," the portions are generous.

    Tourist trap with new owners selling Fred’s name.

    The waiters—seemingly the owners—create a rushed atmosphere. This is not the vibe of the original Fred’s. Hurry up and eat, pay and on your way...definite lack of hospitality. You might as well stop at a drive through. Pick another place for a relaxing breakfast and...More
