My friend and I came here for breakfast as I visiting Sea Island for a wedding. Very cute and quaint local breakfast spot. Food was great, we ordered the eggs benedict, an omelet, corned beef hash, home fries, and the most amazing french roll french toast ever!!
One tip: this place gets really crowded so be prepared to wait. -

Used Yelp to help track down a good place for breakfast while visiting St. Simons. Cafe Fredeica looked like my kind of place so I gave it a shot. Fantastic choice. It's always amazing to me when I go into places to order the simplest of meals, breakfast, and it's disappointing. Cafe Frederica is not one of those places.
Everything I ordered was prepared perfectly. I will be heading there for breakfast one more time before I leave the Island! -

4.5 Stars
It was Thursday morning. The second day of the family beach vacay and we needed nourishment in a bad way. Cafe Frederica, here we come. We rolled up there at around 11 o'clock 9 deep and they seated us immediately. The place is nice and cozy with a toy train tracks that circle the whole place. Very kitschy in a Mr. Rogers Neighborhood sorta way. Unfortunately, the toy train wasn't working on this particular day. The kids were devastated but I think that they'll get over it in time.
Cafe Frederica serves breakfast and lunch only. I think they close at 2 o'clock each day. Anyway, the coffee was pretty good as was the orange juice. For breakfast, I ordered 2 eggs with country ham, grits, some grapefruit sections, and an english muffin. My girl ordered an omelet with crab meat, mushrooms, onions, and swiss cheese. The food was solid and reasonably priced. My girl's omelet was pretty good as were my grits. A few of my kin folk ordered the eggs benedict and told me that it was out of this world. My only real complaint with my food was that the ham was pretty overdone and the grapefruit wasn't very good. In fairness, when your server reminds you (which he did) that it's "grapefruit sections" and not fresh grapefruit, you should know what you're getting into.
What made me give this place 4.5 stars was the amazing service. Our waiter K.K. was everything you could ask for in a waiter at a place like this. My coffee and water were always full, he was great with the kids, and he always had a smile on his face. The food came out very quickly and K.K. even took a pretty good picture of us to boot. While I recognize his artistic talent at photography, I really hope that K.K. will not quit his day job as he is an amazing waiter. I highly recommend this place to those visiting St Simons.Listed in: The Rebel Went Down to Georgia

Whether you happen to be visiting the Golden Isles of Southern GA - or you happen to be stuck here involuntarily for several months - if you're like me, you'll be craving a good sandwich about mid-week, and a decent brunch by week-end. Cafe Frederica has it both, in addition to fantastic, friendly service, warm and fuzzy digs, and exclusivity (it's off a side road in a shopping center, and I've never had to wait on a table). Plus, a decent cup of coffee, and some of the best key lime pie, I'm told.
Brunch recs: the locally obtained crabmeat omelet, some homemade hash browns, and a warm, freshly glazed cinnamon roll. Lunch: the Reuben and a side of pasta salad. If you're craving good eats and a local, down-home feel, this place has got both, and then some. -

Loved it! Really good quality breakfast food and very friendly people.
The place is difficult to find, and your GPS won't necessarily help (ous didn't) but worth it. -

We had a delicious breakfast here over President's Day weekend. It's a really cute restaurant. There were lots of locals enjoying southern breakfast classics. We had grits, country ham, biscuits, eggs && a warm & gooey cinnamon bun. Everyone was friendly. Our kayak guide, a local, told us that Cafe Frederica has the best breakfast on the island.

Open everyday from 7:30 AM - 2:00 PM, Cafe Frederica is a sweet little breakfast and lunch spot that's guaranteed to be hustling and bustling. It has a menu of lunch and breakfast selections, and the specials are excellent as well. Despite its popularity, you are always seated relatively quickly. The service is prompt and the foods are prepared with fresh, tasty ingredients and displayed artfully on the plate. I have never had a bad meal at Cafe Frederica. Consistent, great, and friendly place to eat!

Review from Guerry N.
Saint Simons Island, GA
This is a great Island restaurant for breakfast and lunch. They close every day at 2:00 but are open for dinner of Friday and Saturday night. My favorites are their eggs Benedict and the shrimp salad with the Caesar dressing. Not very big so there is usually a short wait. The staff is very friendly and knows most of the locals. It is kind of hidden off Frederica Road. This restaurant is very popular for the after church groups and there is usually a wait at that time.
