They have outdoor seating which was nice, but I didn't get to see much of the inside - seemed like a neat diner though. Conveniently located on the way into Wildwood and out - perfect for arrival or leaving. Service was very quick and staff was friendly. I had one of their featured specials on the menu - the Marvis Heaven - which came out as a skillet filled with home fries, bacon, ham, cheese, and I was able to get poached eggs on it with hollandaise sauce. It was flavorful and massive - couldn't eat it all.

Freda's Café deserves five stars! We have come here many times over the last 10 years. We have…read morenever been disappointed in the food. The service is very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is charming and cozy. But the real reason to come here is the food. The husband and wife who do the cooking do an extraordinary job with seafood. Last night I had a seafood dish that included lobster, crab, scallops, and shrimp. Each piece of fish was cooked to perfection, melt-in-your-mouth, and the sauce was wonderful. It's no easy feat to cook fish so perfectly, and to do each type perfectly in a combined dish is outstanding. The seafood bisque is delicious and the homemade desserts are also quite excellent. We have eaten indoors and outdoors at this café and highly recommend it.

I'm conflicted on this one, Freda's was definitely an odd duck. Coming into it, I loved the decor…read moreincluding the stained glass windows. We were seated immediately by our server Flossy who also had very good recommendations on what to order. I followed those recommendations and got the Crab Cakes and the Key Lime Pie Cheesecake. My friend ordered the Seafood Pesto. I loved the Crab Cakes, it went well with the mango sauce and it was a very lump meat crab cake. Might be one of the best crab cakes I've ever had. The key lime cheesecake was very fluffy, airy, with the perfect balance of sweet and citrus. The seafood pesto was just OK in my opinion. I did like the food for the most part. However, the portions are a little on the small side. If it weren't for dessert and Flossy giving me a second dinner roll (another point for service!) I think I would've left still hungry. To be fair, I am considered a big eater and I came in starving. There were a few other questionable choices that prevent me from fully recommending this place. Some may consider the dining room cozy, I found it cramped, especially as it started to fill up with other customers. So this place is likely not going to work with a big party even if it's half full. We were a little surprised when trying to find the restroom too. We were handed a key, and had to go outside and in their back alley on a little treasure hunt to find a door labeled "Locked door". When ordering dessert, I was surprised the dessert menu did not list any prices even though their main menu did. Kind of obnoxious and pretentious if you ask me, but Flossy mentioned they were all $18 and big enough to share. That brings me one other point: pricing. I loved the food, but felt each menu item was twice the price that was appropriate for the portion. All in all, Freda's cafe has good food and great service. But it's held back by portion sizes, pricing, and a few other weird issues.

Overall, we felt the food was typical for a breakfast diner spot. Though portion size was definitely on the smaller end. Overall, plenty of options to choose from. Pancakes were fine - nothing crazy or extraordinary. I got the Bacon, eggs, and pancakes. Those were delicious. Portion-wise, it was ok. My cousin got the breakfast wrap, which was honestly tiny. Service is great. Plenty of space. Price-wise -- it was ok. Not the most filling. Definitely nice to go to if you are here briefly or a tourist. Gives you that ambiance of a nice American diner. Otherwise, I would prefer to explore somewhere different.

They had old built in small juke boxes at each table, which do not work of course but led to some fun reminiscing. I really can't say enough about the friendly and prompt service. This was a place where all of the servers work together. We were a group of 5 and I think 4 different people grabbed different parts of our drinks. It had a real family feel, and you could watch the cooks making your breakfast. I ordered french toast with fresh banana and strawberries. It was very good. This was a special, and it directly indicated the fresh fruit which I like and lived up to the description. My husband got a more traditional eggs and toast and sausage and he enjoyed it as well. I def recommend this as a place for good home cooked breakfast when visiting the area, and would definitely come back on a return trip!

omg first review no pressure!!!…read more I only stopped in for a coffee on their grand opening day. We were immediately greeted with a warm welcome from I think the manager, who explained the menu and how their coffee is sourced from Mexico (delish btw). I originally thought this was just a coffee/breakfast spot but was pleasantly surprised it is actually a full scale restaurant! The menu looks fantastic, and the vibes are 11/10, giving old school Cape May. They have a to go counter, a sit down counter and traditional table seating. I wish I took pics but you will have to go see for yourself! This seems like a unique little spot on Pacific Ave which is really nice to have down here, not just another traditional american bar spot. Best of luck and we can't wait to come back to try the food!
