    Fred's has the best breakfast. It has a charming, contemporary vibe. You order at the register and they seat you at one of their tables. Seating is a bit limited and you might have to wait in line if going at peak times. We ordered the the Market Breakfast Plate and Breakfast Burrito sub meat for avocado. The spicy harissa sauce and herb labneh was so delicious and flavorful. The burrito had a spicy sauce that gave it a unique flavor. I loved how simple, yet creative their menu items were. Everything tasted so fresh. I enjoyed my carmel banana latte. They used Roos Roast beans, which is one of my favorites. The staff is incredibly kind. I can see this becoming a regular spot for me. Highly recommend checking it out.

    I ordered take out from Fred's for lunch and it was delicious and really good. I ordered the tuna melt and the beef tallow fries. The tuna melt was fresh. The fries were really good. Ordered a regular Latte with 2% milk and it was also really good. Overall solid lunch place.

    Spicy Chicken Sandwich (1/2)

    I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, it was so good! It comes with chicken schnitzel and wasn't too spicy. Looking forward to my next visit! This is in the former Bunny Bunny location.

    Needed a Breakfast that was good, and refreshing. Fred's came up...Menu looked inviting...Instant Yes, when someone opened the door and Welcomed us in. ( let me add) the buildings south of the restaurant are vacant DON'T LET THAT STOP YOUR EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATELY: The Flowers on the tables the antique Glass Water dispenser setting, positive quotes on the walls will let You know good choice You order at the counter the Team was pleased to answer any questions. BTW Your Hot drinks are served in Real Cups/with handle not a Paper cup I was gonna share the Lox sandwich on sour dough bread. When I saw the huge size I said oh dear I should have. However I could not stop eating it. Kinda felt like I had found a bit of NYC city neighborhood restaurant on Gratiot in Detroit. Oh watch out for the meter persons

    Market Breakfast Plate
    Mark P.

    Fred's has quietly become our Sunday ritual after the gym and our new go to brunch spot. It is tucked into a row of newer shops off Gratiot by Eastern Market, with big front windows that flood the space with light. You order at the counter, grab a seat, and food just appears at your table. Service is consistently kind and the flow works really well. My usual is the Kale and Brussel Sprout Salad with grilled chicken (4.5/5). The dried cranberries, Parmesan, and light sweet vinaigrette hit that sweet/salty/tangy mix and play nicely with the chunky brussel sprouts and kale. The chicken can be a touch dry at times, but it is always well seasoned. The Egg Sandwich (4/5) is a very solid breakfast sandwich. The eggs are always cooked perfectly soft, and with avocado, cheddar, and mayo on a challah roll you are in rich, cozy territory. For my taste it could use a bit more texture, but the quality is there. The Hot Potato side eats like a full meal (4.5/5). Crisp potatoes with spicy mayo, garlic, and a blanket of shredded Tillamook cheddar. Hard not to finish the whole thing. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts (4/5) are another favorite. The portion is generous, the red wine vinaigrette is used lightly, and the labneh and green apple give brightness to what is basically deep fried sprouts. The only downside is the oil that gathers at the bottom, which is sort of the cost of doing business with fried brussel sprouts. The Market Breakfast Plate is the star for us (5/5). Perfectly cooked eggs, creamy labneh, spicy tomato harissa, fingerling potatoes, greens, and Zingerman's sourdough that is ideal for dragging through the harissa and yolk. It is the plate we keep coming back for, every single time. Shoutout to Earl for making some of the best eggs we have had in Detroit. If you are near Eastern Market and looking for brunch, Fred's is absolutely worth a stop.

    Fantastic little place for brunch! The team here makes a great job anda a great meal. Top recommendation is the spicy chicken sandwich and the nova toast. Good coffee and good food. We did not try the smoothies but they seem to be very popular. The ambiance is independent, chic and easy going. Absolute recommendation and congrats to the place.

    444 ever glowing smoothie

    First meal of 2026 and it was at Fred's. This was the old Collect Beer spot if IIRC! I also have NO idea if this spot is related to the Fred's that used to be in Ann Arbor (RIP) but Detroit Fred -- I love you already. We had the following and I'm listing in order of MUST order - but honestly no misses for me - all so so delish and fresh! *444 Ever Glowing Smoothie (carrot, pineapple, ginger, turmeric, orange, collagen): 444 is an angel number but apparently the owner's wife also owns 444 pilates so there's a connection here with the naming here. This smoothie slapps. It's like the wellness shot we all know and love but make it tasty! *Breakfast Burrito (free range soft scrambled eggs, cheddar, barbacoa, chilaquiles, mango salsa & chipotle cream) - we made it a bowl and wowow, it's the way to go. So flavorful, the fingerling potatoes in it were so lovely and beautifully crispy. *Spicy chicken sandwich (chicken schnitzel, kale, cucumber, pickled red onion, cheddar & spicy mayo on zingerman's sourdough) - I LOVE this take on a spicy chicken sando, so unique! Liked the slight heat on the spicy mayo too. *Fred's Smash Burger (double patty smash burger, american cheese, bread & butter pickles, grilled onions & house burger sauce) - SOLID SOLID smash burger. so flavorful and perfectly cooked. *Mediterranean Salmon Bowl (grilled salmon, pearled couscous, herbed labneh, tomato, cucumber, pickled red onion, fresh dill) - I could eat this every single day for lunch if you let me. So tasty, well balanced - with the tangy labneh. Yum. I'll definitely be back to Fred's - the food is pretty remarkable and there's so much more to try. The acai bowl looked awesome. So did the ricotta toast (huge fresh berries!). Street parking!

    Fred's and I go together real bad! Have dined in and dashed from Fred's...either way I have received food from here it never misses. Any of the food I have tried is delicious and are huge portions. Prices are incredibly fair and a great value for the quantity of food you receive. Looking forward to eating my way through the entire menu here and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu truly. Anything I've tried so far is delicious. The coffee is also great and dare I say some of the best I've had in the city. I'm a bit of a latte and cappuccino snob and they do a great job here. Although it's a bit of a smaller spot, the turnover is very quick. You order from a counter and your food is brought to you. The kitchen is speedy! Open for breakfast and lunch.

    Cappuccinos

    Fred's used to be one of my favorite brunch spots in Ann Arbor, and I was so heartbroken when it shut down. Not 100% sure if this is the same business but I was ecstatic to see this open up in Detroit and had to make my way over. My friend and I enjoyed their cappuccinos with a hint of their house made syrups - I had pistachio and she had maple cinnamon, and both were divine. This was the best coffee I've had in a while! The food, although took a while to come out, did not disappoint. I had the breakfast burrito turned into a bowl with yummy crispy potatoes and my friend enjoyed her market bowl. One of the owners popped by as well and was super friendly, as was all of the staff there! Can't wait to be back to try more of the menu here.

    This is so far my top brunch spot of 2026. Right next to the Eastern Market area, it's in a fantastic location and you can find street parking in front pretty easily. It's a moderately sized space, but we were able to just walk in. I ordered the breakfast burrito as a bowl and the banana caramel latte. The latte itself was incredible, it really blew me away and I absolutely loved the flavor. The burrito bowl was also amazing, huge portions that I was not able to finish and so much flavor. Will definitely be returning soon and making this my go-to brunch destination. Cannot recommend enough!

    Market breakfast plate and chicken rice bowl

    I had brunch here this morning and had the absolute best experience! Located in Eastern Market, Fred's is a true gem. The owner is so friendly and really makes it feel like a community :) there is seating both downstairs and upstairs. We were seated upstairs and I loved the decor and colors. It reminded me of the Siren Hotel in Detroit. For drinks, we had the iced caramel banana latte which was delicious. I tried the market breakfast plate which was one of the most flavorful and filling breakfasts I've had in a long time. I loved the labneh and spicy harissa sauce that came with it. My sister had the chicken rice bowl which had great flavors. Overall I had the best experience and I will be back again soon :)

    Fred's Café is such a lovely place for a delicious breakfast. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth--Fred himself is incredibly welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home. The food is absolutely fabulous, made with care and full of flavor. My kale salad was amazing--honestly, one of the best I've ever had. We'll definitely be coming back again and again!

    Another wonderful breakfast at Fred's!! Enjoyed the Market Breakfast Plate - greens, very yummy and spicy tomato harissa, fingerling potatoes & zingermans sourdough. And, Avocado Toast - Avocado Toast avocado, free-range sunny side up eggs, pickled red onion, arugula & balsamic on zingermans sourdough. Sipped drip coffee with almond milk and vanilla flavor. What a way to start a Saturday!

    Ambiance no. Service is organized chaos (it was a busy Saturday) but somehow works. Ultimately come for the food. Great Barbacoa.

    Excellent on all fronts. Service was amazing, food came out reasonably quick for how busy it was…read more Enchilada Omelette was BEST I've ever had. Was perfect balance of egg and other ingredients where it wasn't all egg! Potatoes excellent as well. DO NOT MISS the homemade biscuits. BLTE - excellent Korean Fries-very good Strawberry waffle- light and yummy Chicken Avo salad - great Veggie omelette- great flavor for our vegan friend.

    In all my years working in Detroit I finally got downtown to try this lovely spot. It's a cozy,…read morenice diner vibe that's not a a grungy, divey place yet small like one. The staff was very friendly and warm when greeting guests. Their personable nature made the visit that much more worth the walk in the heat. Since the place was pretty busy we took bar stools to avoid waiting for a table and it was a good view of the smaller kitchen area. I was pleasantly surprised at the efficiency we saw from the busy crowd and the food not taking 10 years. The food was tasty. I truly enjoyed my Korean spicy fries. Spicy in name not truly spicy to cause a burn if that makes sense. I was craving a traditional breakfast plate but the staff and my friends who are local insisted that I needed to try the Korean fries so I did both. Was it greedy of me? Absolutely. Did I care? No. The locally sourced sausage was also very tasty. I must try to find it to cook at home. My friends ordered their regular go-to meals so it was great according to them. The burger and the duck hash. I think I'll go back and try the duck hash next time for sure. And another thing, there's a particular parking garage they validate a couple hours for. So parking is not an issue in this downtown office building.
