This is a local establishment and it does some things better than others--solid food but nothing fancy. I'd hoped for the Friday night prime rib, but only 2 end cuts remained available. I opted for steak tips, garlic mash and butternut squash. Tips were cooked a perfect medium rare and the taters were surprisingly tasty! I love plain butternut squash, so why you gotta add the cinnamon? Alas, I still quaffed it down. My friend had the cheeseburger bar pizza, which I imagine replicates the flavors of a Big Mac. The bar was hopping (horse racing was on) but our table service was slower than I'd have liked (waited awhile for waitress to check back), but typical post-Covid staff shortages likely to blame. I'll be back for prime rib. read more

Freda's - The best cheese pizza ever! - Italian Near Me - West Bridgewater, Massachusetts

Went with a friend. She found the atmosphere "charming" and "cozy" while I found it woefully outdated and dark. The food was not good. I got pizza with extra sauce. The pizza seemed to be a frozen not fresh pizza and had no extra sauce. It was better the next day but still lousy. She got a pasta dish and ate a few bites taking home the rest. I couldn't tell if she really liked it or not. We both hated apple crisp with iced cream dessert which the waitress told us she'd just taken out of a fresh package (so, frozen). The crisp was burned on top which ruined it but the iced cream was OK - not great but eatable. The waitress was fantastic - just the right combination of considerate without being too much. The hostess looked bored and seemed to care more about whatever she was reading than her job. I don't understand the good reviews this restaurant gets. read more

Fredas is where I want to go when I need more than an amazing meal. It's where I go to feel the warmth of the friendly staff that makes me feel like family. The owners are so friendly & the nicest people you'll ever meet! Fredas is West Bridgewaters best kept secret, hidden gem. If I could give 100 stars I would! read more

Food was phenomenal!! I had the Chicken Christofer. Excellent dish. Very tasty. I would recommend this to anyone to try something different

Friendly staff, great drinks, delicious food! The menu has something for everyone on it and they have specials. Clearly a local favorite as it was completely full and I saw many people come in for takeout. read more

Wow!!! Had a pistachio martini and a small Greek salad. Best Greek dressing this far south of Jimmys harbor side Boston Enjoy! read more

Has been one of the best family restaurants for many, many years!! Steve and his family and their entire staff are just nice people!! The food is always great !!! Just a very nice place for dinner !! read more

Just sat at a table for fifteen minutes without a waitress coming to my table while the owner talked to the people two tables away from me. Time to retire . read more

Fredas is a great little spot . No frills here , this place is a straight up old fashioned neighborhood place and the food is AMAZING . Leaves me nostalgic for old days ! The menu is filled with classics - and they're all delicious ! They also have a decent selection of vegetarian dishes ! read more

Found Freda's right after we moved a year and half ago. Was close to home so we tried it! We've been back quite often since! Everything is delicious! Love their Prime Rib! Very reasonable price also! Everyone is very friendly and waitstaff are very excellent! It's really starting to feel like home to us! read more

Hidden gem. Widest menu choices around. Always fresh and tasty. Great bar pizza too! Love Freda's!

It was really excellent, somewhat pricey but you get what you pay for and it is really good! The chicken parm is absolutely one of the best!! I love the place for the quality and greatness of the food.. the service was in point and the waitress was quite efficient and polite. The chicken Marsala was also a fantastic meal, although not as big a serving as I was hoping for, as I took very little home, but it was so good maybe I just ate too much. They have a good menu and a quiet location! The only thing I didn't like was we were seated next to the kitchen door and swinging of everyone going in and out of the kitchen was truly annoying because it was like having a kid behind your seat kicking the seat constantly .. read more

Been going there for 30 years. Awesome laid back place with fantastic food and excellent service.

Amazing pizza...chicken parm to die for...best greek salads!!!! You cant go wrong with Freda's...ever!

Walked into the place and received a horrible attitude from one of the ladies at the front hostess stand. Turns out she was the owner! Didnt think much of it honestly until I went to order a drink from my server. She took my drivers license over to that owner lady and I wasn't allowed to order a drink because I had an out of state driver's license... oh and if that wasn't enough proof that I was of age I even showed them my passport! The food was horrible and they didnt even have my first choice. DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE COMING BACK AGAIN. read more

1st time here. The outside of the place is nondescript. With the exception of the sign you wouldn't know it to be a restaurant. Inside interior was older but cared for. The waitstaff was friendly & attentive, overall, a nice family restaurant. The stuffed Quahog was delicious! Lots of clam & has a good kick the way it should. The Clam Chowder was OK. It was thick, chunky, and not overcooked but I thought it was a bit bland. The boneless buffalo strips were crispy but the sauce had an uncharacteristic sweetness that I could have done without. My wife got the swordfish, it was great. HUGE portion of fish but still amazingly tender and very tasty. I would come back just for this. I opted for the tuna salad sandwich w/ fries as I was getting quite full by this point. The sandwich was good though the bread tasted a little dry. The fries were cooked well with the proper crispness. Beer selection was OK, mostly standard offerings. Though they did have Rapscallion, I would have liked to see more beers from the region. Bottom line, I'm looking forward to comeback again. read more

I have been back here many times and I have to say I get impressed each time I return. I've tried so many different meals and each time the food is great. The pasta tastes great. The vegetables are very fresh tasting. I really like the pizza. I usually prefer a thinner crust ...but I like that the crust is crispy and buttery. Its a great change than what I'm used to. Try the green bean appetizer....I think I'm addicted. read more

Walking through the door was like taking a step back into the mid 1970's. Not that it was old, just classic. Almost frozen in time. Leather covered booths. Pine covered barn board on the walls. Comfortable and welcoming. Feels like someone's home. Nice bar, seats about 12. Here on an early Saturday afternoon for lunch. Maybe a dozen patrons so not too busy. Ordered the beef burgundy over fettucini lunch special. Sauce was delicious, pasta cooked just right. Some of the beef was tender but most of the pieces were over cooked and dry. Service was ok but nothing out of the ordinary. In fact I had to ask for more water and the check. Overall the atmosphere was fine, the food just mediocre but the service poor. I won't be back to Freda's (even if that was my grandmothers name!) anytime soon. read more

Freda's - Nondescript building. No name anywhere on building. Weird. - Italian Near Me - West Bridgewater, Massachusetts

Very busy environment on a Friday night, ordered a Bud light got an Ice Tea. Just kept it, must have been the drinking gods. Onion rings- best we have had in a long time and we do have a lot of experience eating and we are somewhat long in the tooth. Friendly waitress, great salad, bread and Pork something was very good. O back to that ice tea, it did have a bit of a funny taste. Somewhat hard to locate using GPS keeps wanting to send you to Brockton. read more

Freda's has been around longer than I think I have been alive. It has always been consistent, with great food, great service and you are guaranteed to see another townie in there to talk to! It feels homey and warm, and it is always nice to see a familiar face! read more

To be honest, I usually avoid anything at Freda's that doesn't have dough, sauce, and cheese. Not that their menu is bad by any means, rather, how can you pass up on pizza this good! I have always been a Cape Cod Pizza guy, but truth be told, Freda's is surely in contention for best local pizza. One pie that is unlike any out there is the Buffalo Chicken. Real grilled chicken with sauce that has 'just the right kick.' Pair with a side of their cool blue cheese dressing and you're on cloud 9. Great for take-out, but dining in is fine as well. Very cozy atmosphere and great servers. The owner has always visible and seems like a good guy. Prices are somewhat on the higher end. Simply put: Freda's is a local gem and absolutely worth a visit. read more

Love this place. Food is excellent the staff is great. The chowder is perfect! Bar pizza excellent! Never a bad meal here.

Excellent Greek salad. The dressing was amazing. I went on a Friday evening and the crowd was a lot older. Seems everyone was happy with what they had for food. I got a cheeseburger club. Food came out fast. Perhaps a little better wine list would be good but overall I would say middle of the road food and the food came out quick. read more

My best friend's dad passed away this week. He was a long time patron of Freda's. Freda's, which normally would have been closed on Monday, the day of his funeral, opened just for us, so that we could have a gathering after the funeral. These are great people at Freda's. An honest old fashioned restaurant. Good food. Great people. Pump your money into the local economy and give this place your business, rather than financing some chain restaurant. read more

Never a bad meal at Freda's! The Mussels Bianco are incredible! Their homemade soups are unbelievable! My favorite dish is Penne Tuscano; any night of the week this dish does not disappoint! My favorite special dish is their Pan Seared Cajun Haddock with Pineapple salsa, just the right amount of heat bursting with flavor! Atmosphere is relaxed, the wait staff is attentive and pleasant. This is truly a diamond in the ruff! I almost didn't write this in fear that my wait time will definitely increase! ; ) read more

I went to Freda's on a Thursday nite with a friend. The atmosphere was pleasant and comfortable. My friend ordered the Chicken Broccoli Alfredo which she enjoyed, and I had the Prime Rib which was very good. I also got 2 pizza's to go, hamburg & roasted red peppers and a linguica and mushroom. Excellent pizza ! The service was great with a very attentive waitress with all the running around she was doing. I decided on Freda's because of the great reviews on Yelp and I wasn't disappointed. Highly recommended and will go back again. read more

Such a dive and food is really average. Still, it's a great, cheap neighborhood place and the service is really great.

It was a cute place for cinco de mayo. However the crowd was around my parent's age (50's) and the band was soooooo loud!!! But we had a good time. I recommend dessert. I can't remember what I got but it was chocolatey and gooey. After reading the reviews I wish I would have gotten the pizza! read more

We went for lunch...TERRIBLE...sat at bar....this placed is so dated...as is the bartender....expect to pay top dollar for a for a glass of wine and a beer draft...we spent $60 for lunch...we wont be back... read more

Been waiting over an hour for fish and chips for my husband & a cup of soup & potato skins for me & the place is dead

We go to Fredas quite a bit and we ALWAYS have a great meal in a pleasant environment. The homemade soups are fantastic! Their pizza is amazing. Attentive and friendly waitstaff. Ask for a Lemonchello Razz Martini, you won't be disappointed. read more

Recently started ordering from here with Door Dash. I am so glad I decided to try this place! The chicken supreme is awesome! One time it didn't seem as fresh. But, other than that It's been spot on. read more

A townie hot spot. I don't consider myself or my b/f a local, but this is definitely a local favorite for very good reason. The place looks a bit shabby on the outside, but inside its welcome and has a homey feel. The service wasn't over the top.The menu was full of comfort food, the portions were great and the price even better. I'd recommend it to anyone for a quick bite to eat or even some appetizer and a pint. read more

This place has my favorite bar pizza. It is so much better than Cape Cod cafe which I always find so greasy. They also make a great prime rib and their salads are very fresh and quite large for sharing. Their 10 buck Tuesday specials are well worth it and Freda's has some of the best home made soups especially the stuffed pepper soup. The winter sangria is also very popular and is very good. My only complaint is that the desserts need some work though if you have a sweet tooth. read more

I Went to Freda's and got their famous burger "The Freda Burger" and it was awesome, their was no redness in the burger. I have went their many times and tried other meals and all of them were awesome, I highly recommend this place!!!! read more

My husband and I wanted to try it out after hearing good things about it. When we walked inside I noticed an odor that made me feel uneasy. The inside of the restaurant is old and dated. We were seated at a booth close to the bar. We ordered our drinks. I ordered dirty martini and my husband ordered a beer. When the waitress left to get our drinks I asked my husband if he noticed the smell. He said he did. I knew then that I would not want to eat there. The waitress came back to ask me if I preferred gin or vodka. We cancelled our drink order and we left. read more

Food was great but the bartender Robin was extremely rude and abrupt. Everyone's entitled to a bad day but not everyday. They should definitely start looking for a new bartender because personality is key and she is not cutting it. read more

i've yet to have a bad meal in this place in all the years that i've been dining there......prices are reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get with each order.....the pizzas are outstanding and should be included in every best pizza awards in the south shore......every meal is cooked to perfection just the way you like it......the waitresses are fantastic also...... read more

We had a bereavement luncheon at Freda's recently and we were very pleased. The manager, Steve, was wonderful. So easy to work with and very accommodating. The food was outstanding. Get the lasagna...homemade and the best. I just wish we lived closer as we would frequent Freda's regularly. read more
