Cafe de Fred in Kensington and Chelsea

Fred was nice and super friendly. My sister and I both had the traditional English breakfast, and it was delicious! We felt like native Londoners eating here.

We ordered the british breakfast and the creme, which both were amazing!!! The people were so nice as well, so what more do you need than good people and good food :)

Great place with a good English Breakfast and lovely homemade dishes. Very friendly owner who gave us good advice on what to do on a hot day in London. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and I went here for brunch this morning and thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the experience. The food was excellent - I got the full English, my husband got a galette, and we shared a lemon sugar crepe - all delicious and well-priced. We also had the pleasure of speaking with Fred and his son, who were absolutely delightful and had great suggestions for what to do with the rest of our afternoon. It was so nice to dine at a small family-run business, and to see Fred take such pride in the work he does. When we come back to London, we will be coming back to Cafe de Fred!

Fred is amazing! Food is amazing! We were in a VRBO next to Cafe de Fred. Fred and his family were incredibly hospitable and will be one of our favorite memories of London.

Loved Cafe de Fred! My boyfriend and I came here two mornings for breakfast during our trip to London and would gladly have returned had our stay been longer. I had the English breakfast the first day and Belgian waffles the next. I greatly enjoyed both, with the waffles being my personal favorite (they were delicious). Fred was a great host and a pleasure to meet. We really enjoyed chatting with him after we had finished our meals. Would definitely recommend stopping by!

Cafe de Fred is just down the road from my son’s school so I visit often with my two children. The owner and head chef (Fred) is a super friendly and charming individual and always has a smile on his face, regardless of the day he’s having :) The coffee is great quality, the wide choice of food is all cooked from scratch by Fred himself (including the gorgeous tarts and cakes - I’d recommend the tarte au citron)) and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming (and fabulously “old-school“). My son loves going in there for his weekly pain-au-chocolat and to look at the giant map of the world which pretty much takes up a whole wall! Obviously we can’t sit inside at the moment but Fred has made the cafe COVID-compliant and is still a lovely place to pick up a takeaway coffee and croissant, plus I think it’s so important to support small businesses at this time. See you in there!

If you are looking for a place to have an amazing breakfast/brunch ( not expensive at all!!), I really recommend you Cafe de Fred. The food is really good and you can choose from lots of options!

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! ❤️

La comida está bien y el personal es amable.Si es anterior a la corona, sería un bonito café de barrio.Sin embargo, es un lugar espantoso al que ir durante la pandemia.Lo peor: el cocinero y el camarero no usaban máscara ni protección para la cara, no había distancia social, hablaban sobre nuestra comida y nuestras cabezas. Sus driblets podrían haber caído en nuestra comida, en nosotros y en la mesa.Lo segundo peor: usan la misma jarra de leche sin desinfectar ni lavar / limpiar de una mesa a otra.Aún impactante: las salsas de mesa llegaron a la mesa a pedido, pero no se desinfectaron antes de traerlas.La mesa en la que nos sentamos no fue limpiada ni desinfectada antes de sentarnos: las migas de pan que estaban en la mesa indicaron que ni siquiera se limpió.El café es pequeño y no está exactamente bien ventilado aunque la puerta principal esté abierta.No tienen un folleto o una hoja de menú (escrito solo en la pared detrás del mostrador de comida) y supongo que es riesgoso para la corona.¿Por qué no piensan lo mismo sobre las salsas de mesa y la jarra de leche?El gobierno del Reino Unido debe establecer las reglas de higiene de la corona para los restaurantes y debe cancelar su licencia si aquellos que no cumplen con las regulaciones.No volveré nunca más allí ya que el propietario y las personas que trabajan allí tienen poca sensibilidad y conciencia de la higiene para la corona, y no practican - También me hace preguntarme si son higiénicos en general en la cocina y el local.

My boyfriend and I were staying at the Holland Park hostel nearby, and once we discovered this delightful cafe with the even more delightful Fred (after which the cafe is named), we came here every morning for breakfast. By far the best breakfast I've ever had in London, maybe even England, after multiple trips visiting from NYC. Don't miss this gem!!! :)

Der Service und die Mitarbeiter sind echt gut, das Essen allerdings ist meiner Meinung nach durchschnittlich... Wenn man in der Nähe ist sollte man hin, extra dafür da hin fahren würde ich nicht

En voyage à Londres avec mon copain, j'ai voulu lui faire découvrir un VRAI breakfast anglais ! Mission réussie au café de Fred !Le maître des lieux nous a accueilli d'une manière si conviviale et souriante, j'en suis encore vraiment touchée... Il n'a pas hésité à nous donner des conseils et des renseignements sur les arrêts de bus et stations de métro lorsque je lui ai fait part de notre itinéraire pour la journée !En plus d'être au top au niveau contact humain, le breakfast était P-A-R-F-A-I-T ! J'y retournerai dès que je reviendrai à Londres ! N'hésitez pas, vraiment cela vaut le détour ! Des prix attractifs, un accueil chaleureux et un breakfast au top !Mention spéciale au délicieux jus de pomme fait maison, l'impression de croquer la pomme tout en se délectant !Bref, n'y allez pas, courez y and enjoy ;)

Horrible food, the bacon wasn’t bacon it was Fried ham, all of it was just wrong totally wrong! Please people do not go here it really is the pits! Save your money.... also Me and my friend are both feeling a bit sick now... don’t think the food was fresh... the table was dirty and wasn’t cleaned and The cook had money in his hands while placing our knife and fork also didn’t give us a napkin and we didn’t see him wash his hands! For 2 of us to eat and a coffee and tea it cost £24... what a rip off for a small plate and a bitter coffee all of it was just so so so bad

Nos recibió un dueño muy agradable. Tenía un buen desayuno inglés. El café estaba muy bueno. Me sentí lleno, pero si no lo hubiera hecho, habría pedido un trozo de tarta que se veía muy bien. Fred es un anfitrión muy agradable y hace un día más brillante con su comida y actitud.

Un pequeño lugar realmente dulce. Gran servicio, ambiente cálido, el lugar perfecto para un desayuno casual o para sentarse y hacer el trabajo con una taza de café. La opción vegetariana era deliciosa y no parecía que le faltara nada en el camino de la carne. Definitivamente volveré

Fantastic little cafe that offered great service and a delicious breakfast! Recommend to anyone in the area.

I really dont like fake bacon and sausage. Customers should be advised that the bacon and sausage is not real. I would not have ordered had I known

Una muy amable bienvenida y excelente servicio. En este pequeño café. Comida casera muy sabrosa y fresca. Buena sopa recién hecha. - Una cafetería realmente buena como parada antes o después de visitar el Museo del Diseño, ¡que está muy cerca!A un precio razonable, particularmente para Londres.Definitivamente nos gustaría visitar de nuevo.Muy recomendable.

Très bon accueil de "Fred" (pas sûr que ce soit le nom de notre cuisinier), très gentil, et prononçant quelques mots de Français.L'english breakfast est très bon, copieux (même si les enfants en auraient préféré plus).Le vegan breakfast est aussi très bien.Les jus de fruit sont frais, les légumes aussi.

The staff made us feel quite welcome and then backed up the service with food made with love. I would definitely visit again for a wholesome breakfast.

About the only place we ate in London where good value, well cooked food and a friendly welcome combined - much needed relief from the pretentious overpriced fare which seems to be the norm in London. Thanks Fred!

Nous séjournions au NH Hôtel d’Earls Court et ne voulions pas être tenu par des horaires pour le petit déjeuner. Aucun problème, il y a Fred à 200 mètres sur la route qui remonte vers Highstreet Kensington. Que dire ? Parfait au niveau petit déjeuner (continental et anglais), jus de fruits faits à la minute (je conseille le jus d’orange et carottes), muffins et café americano ont été mes préférés. Fred est d’une sympathie et d’un sourire tellement rare dans cette ville gigantesque et impersonnelle. C’est vrai qu’Earls Court a encore une ambiance de quartier. Sur mes 3 nuits, je suis allé deux fois au Café de Fred (dimanche c’était fermé). Fred fait aussi des sandwichs tout au long de la journée. A très bientôt pour un petit déjeuner Full Monty copieux.

Fred's cafes greatest asset is that the host (Fred) offers great service and food at a keen price. The place has a cheery atmosphere and offers a welcome warm environment away from the High Street bustle. Coffees are good and the juices are freshly squeezed when you order them. Our children loved to visit making it an easy choice.

Ambiente agradable y acogedor y sabrosos alimentos y jugos frescos. ¡Hace años que probé el desayuno inglés antes de renunciar a los productos de origen animal y me sorprendieron las opciones de menú vegetarianas aquí! Suerte para nosotros encontrar este lugar para un desayuno tardío lo primero después de llegar a Londres. :)

Friendly atmosphere, Fred is a very friendly guy, the food is fresh and tasty, what do you need more?

Nos alojamos en un hotel cercano y no tomamos el desayuno como parte del alojamiento. En su lugar, buscamos pequeños lugares cercanos para desayunar. Caf de Fred fue maravilloso. Mis hijos tuvieron su primer desayuno inglés allí, y yo devoré uno de los míos. Es una tienda pequeña y acogedora, con un único propietario que es el cocinero, el camarero y el cajero. Agradable, como si fuera nuestro papá quien estaba cocinando nuestro desayuno.

Después de verificar en TripAdvisor las recomendaciones de algún lugar para visitar para el desayuno, encontramos el Café de Fred que estaba a una distancia razonable a pie de nuestro hotel.

Je conseille le Full Monty qui couvre tous les aspects du petit-déj anglais typique. Les jus maison sont très bons également. Les oeufs pochés très réussis également.

Visited on a Saturday. Great English breakfast, good value and run by a really nice guy. Would recommend any day of the week.

Me and my 2 friends had an excellent breakfast! We were very pleased with such high quality food and drink! The owner Fred was very welcoming and super friendly, as well as efficient and accommodating.

My wife, child, and I were staying in South Kensington on our vacation to London. On the way to Holland Park we came across Cafe de Fred and stopped in for a fresh glass of juice. The next day we ate there for breakfast... and the day after that... and the day after that. This place is fantastic. The service is impeccable. The food was excellent and the prices were extremely affordable. If I lived in this neighborhood I would be eating here every day.

Buena quiche, un montón de cosas para vegetarianos y saludables.

Started every day of my week in London w breakfast at Fred’s . Great meal and double espresso kept me running for hours of walking and sightseeing. You feel like local. Design Museum is nearby , very interesting.

Great meal, friendly service, excellent coffee - what can I say? Well located just opposite the Design Museum and Holland Park.

We stopped in the first morning of our London stay for breakfast, based upon the favorable reviews we found. It was a bit out of our way, but it was well worth the walk. The owner/cook was extremely friendly and attentive. The food was simply amazing, and the value for the meal was fantastic. The full english I had here was by far the best I had on the trip (out of too many to really think about).

Ordered a salad and it arrived covered in vinegar and oil. I am allergic to vinegar. He didin't know if there was peanut oil involved in the dressing. Avoid if you have allergies.

금요일 오전 11시쯤 친구와 잉글리시블랙퍼스트를 먹었어요 소세지 퀄리티도 나쁘지않고 모든 재료가 알맞게 잘 요리되어 좋았어요 같이 먹은 커피도 맛있었어요 켄싱턴쪽에서 아침식사를 할곳을 찾는다면 추천해요

Visited for lunch, found by accident down a side street off Kensington High street. The food was excellent, there is a wide choice of food for breakfast & lunch. The staff are absolutely lovely, the prices are cheap for London. Would definitely visit again.

We ate breakfast here and were very impressed with everything - the food, the quality, the service, the care, the cleanliness - all at reasonable prices. Family run i think. I’m a very fussy person usually but even I couldn’t fault this place. We’re from the midlands and found it a bit difficult to find a ‘normal cafe’ that wasn’t solely focused on the trend of catering for vegans and vegetarians. We had a full English breakfast that came with perfect hot buttered white toast (I see brown is available too), the best we’ve ever had at a cafe. Amazing. We’ll be coming back here next time we’re in London!

Well prepared food at the moment Excellent flavor and aroma Very courteous and affable in the service Perfect english breakfast

Found this place like some others by accident. The coffee was outstanding and the food good. Considering where it is the prices are pretty reasonable too, we would go again if in the area.

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

Lovely place to get a good hearty breakfast at a reasonable price would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Kensington

We wanted to find a casual place for my son (and everyone else) to have an English breakfast and this was the perfect place. The English breakfast was thoroughly enjoyed and there is a vegetarian option also. The English breakfast is probably the best meal to go with since one of our party tried a simple breakfast sandwich which was ok, but, not as fulfilling as the English breakfast.

It is a small café very close to High Street Kensington. There's a very good choice between various breakfast. The price is absolutely correct and the service kind.

Mientras espera para mi clase hijas para terminar, pensé en buscar un buen café para comer con mi marido y mi bebé.

Frecuentemente me tome refugio y ocasionalmente trabajando en mi portátil mientras en poco lugar fred's en la cima de la carretera de Earl's Court. Esto no sólo es discutible el más amable pero también de esquina en Kensington ofrece deliciosos platos. He probado tanto el chili con carne, así como el desayuno y eran fred genial. La calidez y hospitalidad de frec nunca dejará de hacer de este un descanso agradable. Au revoir Fred!

Tenía una preciosa tarta de manzana francesa con una taza de té en la cafetería del pequeño y encantador. El propietario es muy amable y servicial. Está al lado de la carretera desde el Design Museum, enfrente del supermercado Waitrose.

Gracias los encuestados. Mi esposa y yo estábamos visitando el Museo del Diseño así que busqué para cafeterías cerca.

Este café es exactamente lo que estaba buscando en el mañana. Fred es muy amable y ofrece un delicioso café y comida. Él recordaba al segundo día lo que me gustó en la mañana y siempre se desvivió por agradar. Mi familia y yo disfrutamos de la artículos de desayuno como huevos revueltos en tostadas, desayuno inglés y sandwiches de huevo. Recomiendo encarecidamente que se visite Fred y su café!

Generally very bustling with local diners and take away.I have eaten here dozens of times over the years and never had a dud meal yet. Everything I've ordered has been home made.Fred the owner is charming and efficient, as are his assistants. Prices very fair.Has free wifi for those that have to keep in touch!

Cafe de Fred is one of my all-time favorite restaurants and that isn't something I say lightly. An absolute MUST when I visit London. I first encountered the cafe about two years ago; I was tired, hungry, and looking for a place to sit and regroup. I was expecting a faux French cafe with sub-par food based on the name. The restaurant does have some classic French items on the menu, but what is forever etched in my mind is the epic English Breakfast. Truly, it's the stuff dreams are made of. Fred's English Breakfast is exactly what it should be - unpretentious, hearty, and warms the soul. I have eaten there several times and each time, I have noticed that working-class Londoners are enjoying their breakfast along with me. You really can't ask for a better review than that. Another menu item of note is their flat white. We had ours made by a German waitress at each visit. I cannot attest to coffee made by anyone else but if she is still there, seek her out. Her flat white is worth a tube ride across town. Seriously. The restaurant is a bit off the beaten path and by American standards, is a bit of a "hole in the wall". Not a bad thing, though. Waitstaff is great and Fred has been ever-present at all of our visits. I have considered posting a review for some time, but have always decided against it because I want it to stay small and intimate, a place I can always walk into and find a table. I have now decided that I would rather it become popular and overcrowded than shut down. Even if there is a line outside the door at my next visit, it will be worth the wait. I cannot attest to any other items on the menu, as I have only had the English Breakfast. Why would you order anything else when you've found perfection?

We found Cafe de Fred randomly, just wandering off Kensington High Street and what a sweet surprise it was. It is a simple cafe with friendly staff and delicious cakes. We only tried the cakes and had coffee here but the warm welcome made us feel home. We will definitely pop back in again, their apple tart was amazing :)

Petite échoppe tranquille où l'on peut prendre un bon petit déjeuner (5-6£) consistant qu'il soit continental ou anglais. Jus d'orange pressé et chocolat chaud dignes de ce nom. Vous pouvez échanger vos beans (pourtant meilleurs que partout ailleurs) par des patates ou du fromage. Champignons goûtus. Accueil très sympa.

Fred himself greeted us everyday with a friendly smile. The quaint and inviting atmosphere kept us coming back every day. We literally went there every day. By the way best lattes ever. We went back every day because the food was good and the prices were reasonable.

Such a lovely little Cafe - slightly off the beaten track but well worth seeking out.Had a simple brunch of Eggs Benedict and other half had an "all day " breakfast- super! Fred is just the loveliest host , a friend to all and obviously well loved by his regulars and strangers alike .And vital for us Northerners- possibly the very best cup of tea in London !!!!

This a simple cafe serving breakfasts, sandwiches, jacket potatoes etc. Pricing reasonable for the location which is just off Kensington High Street.

Great value for money for breakfasts plus friendly service. Chose here instead of over priced hotel breakfast and so glad we did. Will definitely be back for another visit.

This is the kind of place you can go everyday for breakfast or lunch or just a coffee. Fred is very friendly and the service is good. Food is exactly what one would expect for breakfast and lunch and you can get breakfast all day. We enjoy going there.

Woke late in our hotel close by. Wanted to stretch our legs and find somewhere for a late breakfast. This was exactly what we were looking for. This is a proper cafe, it's exceptionally cheap especially where it's located, we had good grub and a smile on arrival. That classic thing of doing simple things correctly goes a long way.

Came to London for a visit and staying in a premier Inn on earl's court. Walked into Kensington looking for breakfast and came across this cafe....tasty, affordable all day breakfast and a veggie option for me. Nice environment for everyone, warm welcome by the cafe owner and speedy delivery of food. Would definitely come again

Looking for a café for a coffee, we found Café de Fred not far from the tube station. It's a real oasis of unpretentious good value and good service in the occasionally alienating climes of W8. Anyway, we enjoyed the café (and the coffee) so much, that we came back later for lunch. And will be back next time we're in that part of town. Thanks, Fred - you made our day!

The man takes cash then makes the sandwich without washing his hands. Made me feel sick. Cash is one of the dirtiest things you can touch and then to touch bread etc without washing hands is disgusting. Put me off from going there ever.

Having just arrived from Denver where else would you go for breakfast? After all it was breakfast time in Denver if not lunch time here! Friendly atmosphere, great breakfast!

Just a stone's throw from Kensington High Street and the Design Museum, I had delicious cake and a well made espresso, then, later, a tasty coronation chicken sandwich and an Americano. All faultless and with friendly service. There is a wide selection of cafe basic dishes - filled baked potatoes, omelettes, sandwiches etc.

Nothing is fresh espacially patsry ,Everything is frozen croissant, at first when you come fred makes you happy until now no problem and then when pepole come he looks at you as devil almost tell you leave now

Tried this cafe as i wanted a baguette for lunch and it was only down the road from where I work. I placed my order. The girl behind the counter tapped the buttons on the till, handled my money, tucked her hair behind her ears and then picked up a baguette and started to cut it, without washing her hands!! I was horrified!I quickly cancelled my order and walked out much to the girl's bewilderment. I won't be trying this place again which is a shame as the reviews on here are good.

Walking past Fred's one morning while on holiday in London we went in and got a wonderful breakfast. Great value for money , well served and delicious

I was lucky enough to be visiting London a few weeks ago for business reasons. On Saturday morning, my husband and I were on our way to the London Olympia to take part in a large 2 day event. We did not have time for a relaxed breakfast at our hotel, so we decided to find somewhere to grab a breakfast roll.After checking the 'Around Me' app on our phone, we spotted the Cafe de Fred, and so decided to go there. I am so glad we did. It was early (before 9am) and the cafe was warm and cosy looking. We were greeted by Fred (?) and shown the menu, and and it was no problem to ask questions about vegan & vegetarian options.We did not have to wait long, when we were presented with 2 large breakfast sandwiches, and 2 cups of tea. It all cost less than £7.50 (we were expecting crazy London prices). It was a beautiful crisp morning, so took our hot goods to the nearby Holland Park and enjoyed our breakfast al fresco.I would recommend this cafe based on the friendly, fast & professional way were were treated. We would have loved to have been able to sit in & order the full veggie/vegan breakfast, but it was not possible due to our busy day. Other meaty options were available!Overall, it was a great start to our day. Thank you.

We stumbled across this cafe strolling around Kensington - probably the best omelette we have ever had!! The freshly squeezed orange juice was a nice touch too. Friendly & efficient service, sensible prices and a quirky edge. Highly recommended

I came in here with my elderly Father and ordered an omelette with salad for myself and poached egg (s) on toast for my Father with is his staple food when we are out. The omelette was a little on the small side compared to other cafes but was excellent with plenty of filling and the salad was fresh and nicely dressed and served with 2 slices of toast. At £6 I thought the omelette was a little expensive but this is not a cheap area so fair enough. What I was surprised about was the poached egg. In every other café I can think of you get 2 poached eggs on 2 toast. Here my Father just got 1 poached egg on 1 slice of ordinary cheap white bread - such a small portion that I passed over some of my omelette. What amazed me that the cost of this one small poached egg on 1 slice of toast was £4.50!! I queried this with the owner who very firmly but politely explained that this is a very pricey area. This may be the case but no more pricey than say South Kensington or Fitzrovia where you can get similar food far more cheaply. Even here you can get a Full English Breakfast with a hot drink for £5.50 - £6 so I did feel just a bit ripped off which is a shame as in other respects this is a very nice café and unique as far as I know in this area.

vu sur le routard et tripadvisor, nous y sommes allés pour breakfast anglais ... vraiment parfait : préparation et accueil de très grande qualité

Fred's was amazing! Fred and his staff were very friendly and so were the other customers. Fair prices for great food! Best proper English breakfast.

A great cafe in central London with good food , great coffee and a level of service only an owner can give. Avoid its over priced rivals and enjoy!

Fred's all day veggie breakfast is my secret weapon hangover cure - eggs (scrambled in my case), beans, two toast, veggie sausage (could use a better type if there's one criticism), potato cake but what sets it apart are using fresh mushrooms and tomato not tinned and the large slice.of avocado which is a nice and refreshing touch. Not greasy but not worthy either. Just what the doctor ordered. Automatically provided a separate saucer for removal of teabag and a little jug for the milk, all smilingly served by the lovely Fred (at least in my mind this is Fred!). Free WiFi too. For Kensington, a traditional friendly gem.

It is a local cute restaurant that would serve a great English breakfast. It's famous among locals and you will see all kind of locals eating there too.

We too stumbled upon this cafe looking for a late breakfast. Breakfast was served hot, it was value for money and a lot of the food was 'home' cooked which was a delight to see. Atmosphere and staff was lovely and the coffee was amazing!! I really recommend this place

Decided to try this cafe after hearing some guys in our work lift mention it. Opposite one of the entrances of Holland Park, it is not mire than a 10 minute walk from High Street Kensington tube station.I have been there twice this week now, having a different sandwich each day: Coronation Chicken and next day, Chicken and Bacon. Both sandwiches were very nice with lots of filling and it made a real difference to have a freshly made sandwich in Kensington. I have also tried their Caramel shortbread and a vanilla latte, which were also very good.Highly recommend to those looking for a local cafe, that is not too pricy and where you feel like a wanted customer - very hard to find around here where you get a lot of chains or over priced eateries.

So glad I stumbled upon this place, the atmosphere was so pleasant it made me feel immediately at home. On top of that they have my favourite tea - Moroccan mint tea -which for some reason is hard to find in cafe's in London.

As we missed the usual lunch time thanks to the London tube, we were happy to find this place on a rainy afternoon. Service was great at the exception of the advice she gave us to order the daily special : the cottage pie. The pie was good but the side vegetables like frozen overcooked food. On the opposite the Fred's breakfast was a perfect English breakfast with everything tasty and served with nicely buttered toast! I nearly wanted to miss our hotel breakfast to go to Fred again!

Great breakfest.Loved freds english breakfest.Good atmosphere and lot of locals had breakfest here.

had an excellent fish pie - always watch the specials. Rare to get a good home made fish pie in a small cafe like this - or in most other places. Warm welcome, newspapers, loo and a great map of the world on the wall.

Went there for breakfast which was very nice. Good service. Overall the menu looked very god which lots of choice for breakfast and lunch.

The bacon is something to die for! Amazing coffee as well. Very friendly staff as well and they catered for our low carb high fat diet.

We were greeted warmly upon our arrival and felt very welcome right away. The breakfast was delicious - the black pudding and sausage both being very flavoursome. Coffee was very good too. The value for money and all-round friendly and welcoming host means I cannot recommend this place highly enough! If we are back in the area again we will most definitely pay another visit.

We had a very nice breakfast here, served by Fred...who greeted us warmly and looked after our needs.

Popped in early for breakfast with work colleagues Lovely coffee chilled surroundings Banquette seating Little pricey however right in middle of Kensington !!!Not the best but far from the worstNo free drink as part of cooked bkfst as most cafés doMight be worth considering !!!!

Di passaggio su High Street Kensignton, abbiamo deciso di provare questo Cafè per colazione; veniamo accolti da un sempre sorridente proprietario, che ci porta il menù al tavolo. Decidiamo per una colazione continentale (un ottimo pan au chocolat, toast, prosciutto e formaggio, marmellate artigianali, burro, cappuccino) e per una colazione inglese (salsiccia, pancetta, fagioli, funghi, toast, uova); ottime entrambe, ed entrambe per poco di di 5 pounds ciascuna.Assolutamente consigliato.

This wonderful cafe is located right around the corner from my home and office. I never gave it a try since it's very small and there's always a lot of people. I have only had breakfast for which I had an omelette and my colleague had some poached egg dish on toast. Fred actually does all the cooking, serving, etc...very warm and friendly place!

I've been a regular customer of Fred's for 4 years now. Despite moving around to live in different areas in London, I keep coming back to Earl's Court to eat here as I haven't managed to find such a quality café elsewhere. The English Breakfast is arguably one of the best in London and the value for money is great, especially with the free Wifi. The best thing about this place though is how genuine it is. Unlike the Starbucks' and all the other vapid chains in London, you're not treated as a number here, but as a person, and that makes all the difference in the world!

Stopped for a quick lunch, service was efficient, however staff are probably encouraged to turn customers over quickly.Luke warm cans of Diet coke at £2.20 each, 2 Cheese and Ham toasties (which were tasteless) and thank you for £21.....Avoid if at all possible, unless desperate....

The perfect find when we were fresh from the airport at 7:00am and needing an omelet and a cup of coffee. Fred's is clean and the breakfast is good. They also do smoothies and fresh orange juice.

Nice friendly staff I had a Latè and bacon sandwich, Latè was lovely just perfect, bacon sandwich was ok but could of cut the bacon just to stop it coming out in 1 bite. Am I being a bit fussy maybe but it a little thing that would make it a 5 star review.

I came here more than a year ago and was disappointed with my sandwich so this time had an omlette with onions and mushrooms served with a hash brown and toast.The omlette was excellent quality although the hash brown was rather small and probably from frozen. They do a decent pot of tea here as well. Service is friendly and efficient. One star deducted as this pace is pricey.

Traditional unpretentious English street cafe, stopped for a quick lunch of salad and jacket potato. Nice, fresh food, friendly service and reasonably priced. Looked like a good selection of other menu items, will try another time.

We stayed four days in London and everyday we had our breakfast at Cafe de Fred. The food was excellent and the service was great. Free wi-fi.

This was a wonderful place! After walking in the hot sun for a while, my friend and I were greeted with a warm smile and welcoming chairs. I only had coffee, but their food looked delicious. I am definitely coming back next time I am in London!

Staying in the Premier Inn up the road and not wanting to paying for their underwhelming breakfast, set off up the road and discovered this nice little cafe. Great choice of freshly cooked breakfasts on offer and the freshly squeezed orange juice was lovely. Looked like they had a fine lunch selection too. Judging by the friendly exchanges of the owner with the locals who passed by, this is clearly a well respected eatery locally and I can see why.

Fred's is home from home. It's the only place to start the day. Food prepared to my high standard, with a welcome worthy of family. They have to kick me out to get me to go!I particularly recommend the vegetarian sausages. Enjoy.
