Reviews of Cafe de Fred

A. K.

What a wonderful cafe I stumbled upon to escape the wind and rain. Coming from America I had no idea what a Full Monty or English breakfast was, or a builders tea! Tried to order a coffee but was told I MUST have a tea so I followed orders from the wise gentlemen in the shop. Could not have been happier and more full. The food was DYNAMITE! Nice to see great prices too where a lot of shops charge an arm and a leg. Spoke with the owner Fred for about 20 minutes on locations around London to visit and what a pleasure it was to meet him. He gave me some INCREDIBLE recommendations that I will be taking my girlfriend to on the rest of my trip. The entire experience was a highlight and I can’t wait to get back to Earls Court stop to visit him again! 5 stars isn’t enough!

A lovely cafe which has a good selection of veggie options. The coffee was really great too! Fred the owner was also very polite and friendly - would definitely come again!

U.

Ate there yesterday…Greeted by the sweetest man 😊 A good selection on the menu at very good prices! Food prepared fresh and quick! Lovely and clean throughout. Would definitely recommend. Two BIG thumbs up!

G. D.

Popped into Fred's just now as I was waiting to work nearby and I was glad I did! A very friendly welcome then a lovely veggie breakfast. Sensible prices. Will definitely be back.

we were looking for an English Breakfast near us and could not have found a better one.. Great food , great ambiance , Fred is great and does it all. you will NOT be disappointed,.

R. S.

I enjoyed this little place so much. The gentleman was very nice and the atmosphere cozy. I had a slice of carrot cake and a latte. Both were a treat! Will definitely be going back.

K. M.

Small breakfast place with terrific coffee, tea and Full Monty English Breakfasts - potatoes, toast, eggs, sausage, bacon, baked beans, mushrooms & tomatoes. But real star of this gem is owner/host Fred. So nice, happy and helpful. Great guy and awesome place!

K. H.

To be honest, that was amazing. The full English breakfast was so good, I ordered it twice and same treatment for the dessert. The coffee was really good too. A lot of choice. Don't hesitate, just try it.

P. L.

Great food and service. Had a delicious jacket potato with beans and cheese. Fred was lovely and v helpful. Food was very affordable.

M. W.

Perfectly pleasant cafe but I felt £10.55 for an English cooked breakfast with buttered toast and a cup of tea was on the expensive side, especially as the bacon appeared not to be from a pig (turkey or vegetarian perhaps?) and the yolks of the fried eggs were hard.

D. W.

Friendly place with nice atmosphere. The coffee and juice were decent. The baguette was reasonable, could have been a little tastier. Really a four and half stars. But certainly a good place for lunch and snacks

G. C.

Untypical for Ken. High Street .... casual , cafe' menu , personal service , relaxed place to visit and spend a bit of time. Try it.

J. F.

We're not from the area but came for breakfast very friendly and great food. I would highly recommend

P. G.

Really enjoyed my experience at Cafe de Fred! I found this place when I was walking towards High street Ken and noticed that they had a full English breakfast on the menu. So the next day, I went in and had a very tasty veggie breakfast. Plus the owner was just a sweetie!

A. J.

Lovely little place,Look forward visiting again soon :)

O. C.

Good food and service. Nice affordable lunch in London.

d. b.

Firstly - July 21 and the staff are not wearing masks - either to prepare or serve the food - and this is a tiny cafe. But very friendly and good service. Full English OK - although bacon slightly odd (smoked and looks reconstituted - completely flat and almost oblong shaped) and the hash browns were soggy. Ask if you want a liquid yolk on the fried egg, their default is to serve it squashed flat and fully cooked.

K. M.

Had the full English breakfast. It was great.

C. D.

Very friendly place and breakfast is worth every penny.

M. P.

Not a bad breakfast at all.recomend

b. c.

Not expansive, good food, and the boss is very sympatical.

My husband and I adore this place! We stayed in London for a week and ate at Cafe De Fred every morning! We could not get enough of their lattes, eggs benedict, and raspberry tarts with custard. I tried something new on the menu every morning and was never disappointed. This place offers a true cafe experience. We could not image our vacation without this little gem. We also loved the staff. Fred greeted us every day with a warm smile and old fashion charm. Due to location issues with our last hotel, we were too far away to visit Cafe De Fred before our flight back. We regretted not saying goodbye and eating there one last time. But hey, the place alone warrants an excuse to go back!

K. T.

I really recommend this place for an amazing English breakfast. The food was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was welcoming and the owner was very friendly. Thank you ❤️

D. R.

The excellent ratings for this cafe are somewhat ludicrous, despite its laudable name! It may well offer superb meatballs (see previous reviews) - I can't say - but really it's just a greasy spoon and, it should be noted, a pricey one at that.

M.

Delicious food and very friendly atmosphere.

D. B.

Fred runs a great little Cafe . He's always friendly and welcoming and he always has something I like on the menu. My fave is Linguine and Meatballs and I never have to wait very long. His chef Judith is very able and serves meals with a smile.

S. H.

Had a Vegan breakfast ah it was delightful and met the owner who was very kind and friendly. Recommending this cute little cafe with five stars! ❤️

D.

Friendly cafe in Kensington. Good coffee and baked potato and tuna. Nice specials and good carrot cake. Comfy chairs, outside tables, newspapers. Very close to the Design Museum and Holland Park.

R. P.

Loved it! Very welcoming staff. Had a perfect english breakfast. Would recomend to anyone who wants great morning treat :)

S. D.

What an extraordinary place. Looks like a cozy, classic cafe with comfortable seats and varnished tables. Fred's usually behind the counter, getting to work at 5:30 in the morning, and staying until closing at 5pm. It's a comfortable, casual place to hang out. No pressure, free WiFi, outlets near the seats, and a calm environment away from the craziness of Kensington High Street. Highly recommended! Café de Fred is your solution to the cookie cutter coffee chains that litter the city. Fred makes his food (jacket potatoes, lemon tarts, etc.) with care and love. Perfect place to spend a quiet afternoon reading or working.

A. H.

Carys, me and the Bear discovered this little gem by accident and it made our day. Fred and Manu made us very welcome and the "true cafe" atmosphere a delightful oasis. The best coffee we've had in London and Fred's Apple Tart a taste a pure heaven! Thank you both x

j. p.

Only found Freds' last summer and now try and get in there at least once a fortnight as I'm not local. Food is amazing especially the meatballs and also the individual apple tarts. Very friendly place and lovely staff.

E. M.

Lovely place. Quiet and with nice breakfast options. Well worth it if you're around for a simple and light or full, heavy breakfast.

A. Q.

Fred catered for a large group of us that turned up out of the blue with a warm friendly and helpful attitude. Lovely food which all turned up, perfectly cooked at the same time...a marvel of the morning seen age...please do look Fred up if you are in the area.

(Translated) Doesn't look like much, but we are well settled there, well received, and we eat very well for very reasonable prices. I tested a jacket potato (Is that right?) for the first time, not disappointed, simple, fresh and efficient 😌 The boss invites us to test the English breakfast Monty, we promised we would come back! We will try 😄 (Original) Ne paye pas de mine mais on y est bien installés, bien accueillis, et on y mange très bien pour des prix très correct. J’ai testé une jacket potato (C’est bien ça ?) pour la première fois, pas déçue, simple, frais et efficace 😌 Le patron nous invite à tester le English breakfast Monty, on a promis qu’on repasserait ! On essaiera 😄
