Review Frieda's Place - Cambridge

I don't normally leave comments/feedbacks but I just cant resist on this one. This cozy restaurant is just amazing, do yourself a favor, visit them and order your favorite dish. The staffs are nice and dishes are delicious! Me and my family including my 3 year old kid enjoyed it a lot. I ordered their steak burger, fish and chips and onion rings, then add a little pepper, salt and ketchup on top of it, absolutely stunning. I've personally been to many fish and chips restaurant and this is by far the best. Highly recommended and I'm already staving now by looking at the photos!

Loved the food, loved the service! Highly recommended. Had the grilled chicken, breaded chicken, steak sandwich, and roast beef sandwich. All awesome!

I've eaten at this place for many years, and it has never disappointed me. Perfectly cooked fries, juicy and flavorful burger, soft fresh buns, crispy fish and the gravy is to die for. Please never close. My heart couldn't bear losing you.

Frieda's has been my family's go to breakfast place for years and it never disappoints. I haven't been here in a while but it's still great for a quick, cheap breakfast that tastes great.

Walked into this place around 9am and walked back out 5 minutes later. Didn't order anything as the one behind the counter kept asking me over and over again what I wanted even after I told her a few times that I was checking the menu because it was my first time there. There was a total of 3 customers in this place plus a potential customer. They lost the potential customer because of this. One other thing in the 1990s myself and friends used to go there two or three times a week it was that good. Now today you have managed something that no one else in this place as ever done and that is have me enter this place twice within 5 minutes and that is first time and last time.

The quality of the food has gone downhill in recent years and prices have gone up, even before the pandemic. The burgers are frozen, not fresh made as they used to be(and as they still advertise them to be 🙄) and have gotten much smaller. For what used to be a very busy store at lunchtime, it was very quiet today. Think this was my last time going there, and i've been eating there since '92.

I thought I would go out on the coldest day in Jan to have some eggs and ham as I don't normally eat them. This was my first time here after driving by for years. Can't say I would rush back as far as the breakfasts go. The toast was fine. The eggs were super thin but nice and dry the way I like them. The ham was thin. It was the home fries that were the disappointment.. These were not made from scratch but were taken from a bag of frozen potatoes. I recognized these as soon as I opened the box. The taste of the food was ok. The best place for breakfast in Cambridge closed up 2 years ago. I sure miss that place and the staff and the customers that we all chatted with.

Was planning on trying this place as I have driven by it for years. I won't be now as other than your basic side salads there are no vegetarian options (veg burger, spanikopita, etc), not one. I understand this is your typical greasy spoon but I can usually find something on the menu - not here. Very disappointing. Another customer lost....

Cute little diner off the highway. It is cafeteria style with very friendly serving staff. Food was hot, fresh with properly sized portions. <br/><br/>Looking for a speedy home cooked meal. THEN YOU GOTTA EAT HERE!

Yes, it is under new ownership. And yes the prices are a bit higher, but both the food and the coffee are still the best for diner food in the area. I am willing to pay a bit more for what I like when I shop for clothes, why would I treat my stomach any different? Plus the staff are still friendly and happy to see you. I think if long-standing (maybe older) patrons would give the "fresh" (or younger) faces a chance (it's never a simple "turn-key let's go" to even assume an already established business, especially in the restaurant business) they'll find themselves quite at home in no time :)

Time for a Change. We have been taking up to 7 people to Friedas EVERY Saturday for at least 15 years. We have done this through 3 different owners. <br/><br/>HOWEVER, with the NEW owners, prices are up 2ce in 2 months, and the owners are never there on Saturdays to receive our complaint. AND there are other obvious cost cutting measures happening.<br/>I think Friedas can do without our business, we will vote with our feet.<br/><br/>Best wishes to the new owners, whoever you are.

Poor service. I used to be a frequent of this place however after what happened today I don't think I will be back. The restaurant closes at 2pm or so that is what they advertise however I walked in at 1:30 and was told that they have already shut down the grill and cleaned up ready to go home....the 2 people that were at the order desk were basically standing around chit chatting waiting until it was time to go home. What horrible service this place offers! Now I can understand if I walked in 5 mins prior to posted closing time and was turned away, I get that but not 1/2 hour before closing!!!! give your head a shake employees of Friedas!!!

Went to this place for breakfast and it was good. portions were good and so was the food. prices were typical for a breakfast.

Frieda’s Place is an old-school diner, and has been a fixture in Hespeler for over 20 years....At Frieda’s you order at the counter and pay immediately (tip in the tip cup at cash)...prices were all very reasonable, and they offer all the standard breakfast things, with the addition of “bologna steak” as a meat option.
