Freda's Cafe Restaurant Bar

Best hotcakes ever! So fluffy, thick and delicious. The combination of rhubarb and white chocolate ganache is superb. Fantastic service, delicious food and relaxing atmosphere. Definitely recommend if passing through Ballarat!

Food was really disappointing and disgusting 🤢 seafood tasted off and overly chewy, the presentation of the food looks good but it was the worst seafood I've ever gotten out for dinner and for the price 😵 you can get better oysters 🦪 at a pub which would be cheaper, I feel bad for giving 1 star review only because the waiters were so lovely but for the price and the quality of the food it deserves 1 star 🤮🤮🤮🤮 talk about being catfished by a restaurant

Great food, cozy place and very friendly staff, what more can you ask?

We made a booking just 10 minutes before arriving at the restaurant and they could still accept us.

The staff was really friendly and gave us very good recommendations.

Grilled scallops as a starter was spot on.

The Italian beef fillet and the supreme chicken were amazing 😀

The pineapple 🍍 mocktail was refreshing and complemented the dishes well.

The place was spacious and had a nice atmosphere.

I highly recommend this place if you are in Ballarat.

Came in for brunch/lunch today and very impressed with the wide range of breakfast and lunch variety on the menu! Everything looked delicious and we ordered the breakfast benny and quinoa salad and chai latte. From portion size to fast to presentation, it was perfection and couldn't fault anything.

I was also pleasantly surprised how big it was inside and so tables are spread apart and you don't feel like I can hear another tables conversation.

I would definitely come back again!

We went for Brunch knowing Freda's was now doing breakfast.
We were greeted at the door and asked if we had a preference in where we would like to seat.
We ordered coffees all round and ordered 2 big Breakfasts, both with poached eggs and 1 Pancake stack with a choice of maple syrup and ice cream or maple syrup and bacon.
Our breakfast did not disappoint, beautifully presented and great fresh produce.
Everything was so tasty, poached eggs cooked to perfection and nice flavoured sausages with fresh tasting mushrooms and juicy tomatoes. What a great big breakfast!
The pancakes were fluffy and light with ample syrup and ice cream served with strawberries, raspberries and blueberries so by the time you got to the end they were not dry.
The coffee's were really good and definitely not bitter, Best of all..GOOD FAIR PRICES 🫶
Definitely will be back. Well Done to all your team working today😀🏻🙌
