What a pleasure to eat at Fred's Diner and discover everything is the same, although it's been years since I'd been there. The small space is crowded, but that just shows you how good the food is. :)
I've included photos of the menu. It was hard to decide, but I chose a 3 egg omelette with cheese and bacon with a side of homefries and wheat toast. My dining companion had chicken and dumplings. We both dug in before I thought 'oh no! I forgot to take a picture!'. Yes, I'm that person, but only to back up the reviews I leave. Fred's Diner is a welcome alternative to the chain restaurants, and boy does that kitchen staff put out the food quickly! A lot of hustle there. Well done guys!
This is one of my Pop's favorite spots to eat at and I totally see why! Not only is the food amazing, but you get so much of it for the price. More often than not, you'll have to wait a few minutes for a table because it's always a full house out there, but it's more than worth waiting for. I highly recommend the country fried steak platter (#9). You won't regret it!
I was looking for breakfast after a local race and this was just the ticket. The back of their shirts states "Eat, Pay, Get Out". They are not messing around here. And for good reason, the parking lot is full with a constant flow of customers, many you could tell were regulars. All the servers were fun and happy. The food is outstanding and out before I could finish my first cup of coffee. The portions were just right with just a few leftovers for the lighter eater. I had the corned beef hash and my wife had french toast, so much french toast. The building is deceptively big with more room in the back so do not be discouraged when the lot is full of cars. This is a must for a great breakfast, quick, delicious, and on your way. We will be back.
This place is amazinthe servers were awesome and the food was delicious! I was greeted with a warm welcome and the waitresses we're all nice and we're on point with their working abilities along with loveable personalities which makes it a place that you will definitely return too.. Whoever the cook was! Compliments to the chef because the food was incredible and for the amount of food you get the price was awesome as well!! I give this place 2 thumbs up easily
Run the Akron Marathon, come here for a recovery meal. Great off the beaten path eatery - good food, great service. Simple menu and the food is served within minutes of playing your order. This place ain't fancy, but it doesn't need to be if you are looking for well-made food that is reasonably priced 👍👍
Phenomenal food at a great price. The service was spectacular. Almost no wait from sitting to a friendly waitress coming to the table. Never had to wait on coffee, which for me is huge, especially considering they were quite busy. Will definitely return and highly recommend for a simple comfort food experience.
Cute little diner & the food was amazing! I had a cheeseburger and it was perfect and a great size. Absolutely delicious. & so was the chicken dumplin soup. 10/10 definitely recommend. & service was top notch, quick & made sure we were taken care of.
States I visited yesterday however it has been couple month I can tell you they serve a GREAT breakfast. I was not disappointed. They were practicing covid precautions and we did eat in our car which was not a problem.
