Best bacon and omelettes in Marin. I work across the street so I get to enjoy their food every week. Honestly, I've never had thicker, tastier bacon than at this place. Also, their omelettes have some sort of magic ingredient that makes them taste incredible. I've heard the french toast is to die for, but I haven't tried it yet. My favorite is the club sandwich. Any time you're driving up to Marin from the city, this is a great stop for breakfast or lunch.

Love this place, very intimate, GOOD COFFEE! and small town feel. Got roped into the rating for this, and was excited to visit. Located in Sausalito, about 15 minutes from SF. Have wooden tables, that feel "country", very good service, and nice breakfast. Awesome french toast that had a "funnel cake" type feel and flavor--YUM--AWESOME! "Homefries" taste a bit bland, but it seems like they do everywhere, no matter what city or state. Wood definitely visit again for its homey feel, and the fact that many locals seem to eat there regularly (staff knows them by name).

yummy. Whenever I take day trips to the wine country, I stop by the Freds for breakfast. Usually the restaurants in Sausalito are overpriced and targeted toward the tourists. However, Freds Place Coffee Shop is the exception. Its over forty years old. Generally cater to locals. Toto, the cook, has been dishing out the breakfast for over twenty years there. Their Swedish Pancakes are huge, delicious and served with Real maple syrup. And their French toasts are unique and amazing at the same time. If you are looking for hearty and delicious breakfast, this is the place in Sausalito. Ask any locals. Seating arrangement is good for big groups. Parking is easy too.

Editorial Review. Sausalito standby has been dishing up pancakes, omelettes and more classic diner breakfast and lunch fare for more than 40 years.

this is what a breakfast place suppose to be.. located in the middle of Sausalito away from busy tourist shopping area is this little gem of cafe. Old, quaint, friendly, and did I say old? 40 years and counting. Try their french toasts, you won't regret it.

Best breakfast in the bay area. My wife and I visited San Francisco and Sonoma on our honeymoon. We had breakfast here on the way to Sonoma. The french toast is the best I've ever tasted and the eggs are perfect. I don't know the secret to the food here, but it is truly a great place.

We loved it so much, we ate there on the way back into San Fran. This place is truly a must for anyone that drives past Sausalito.

Fluffy eggs, great breakfast place!. Fred's is great if you want simply the best tasting breakfast. There is simply no one else that does eggs as fluffy! Portions are huge and the staff is friendly. The place is no nonsense.

Be prepared for a wait on weekends, and to share tables with others. Not the place to be if you want an intimate conversation.
