Party of 9 aye here 7/6/22. First time here, was recommended by a friend. Wasn’t badly busy for a 4th July weekend. We came here around 11:30/ noon. The food was delicious and well prepared. It’s a buffet style southern restaurant. The strawberry shortcake was amazing. You can’t go to plant city and not get strawberry’s. After all it’s the capitol of the world for them.
Your party’s can’t be seated until all members have arrived. The staff was friendly and attentive. Never had empty glasses. The bathrooms were clean and not sticky. Somehow awkward with how the doors worked. Nothing degrading point value. Never had fried catfish before, this did not disappoint! Would have it again anytime from here. You pay at front, plenty if seating. Had toothpicks at counter. Everything runs smooth and takes germ precautions well with gloves, sanitizer, and spoons. The parking spaces can be a bit small and hard to find. Well worth circling the lot a few times. Hope to return soon.
Love love love Fred’s! It’s like if Cracker Barrel and Golden Corral had a beautiful baby. Delicious home style cooking buffet with quality ingredients. We went for breakfast and will definitely be back! Oh! And that sweet tea is phenomenal!
Insane! Checked it out for the first time for breakfast and had to come back for lunch. Buffet options only being the number of trips to it. No made to order menu. Good home southern cooking. A wide spread of options on the hot and cold sides with desserts waiting. Staff are very attentive to keeping empty plates away and your unlimited drinks filled. Drinks are an additional cost. They also have take out options, where you can buy different size containers that the locals have learned how to pack just right to maximize value. Great decor that is well maintained. Restroom themed as well and clean. On my top 10 list.
Love this place and was impressed how they have their own shipping/receiving. I only had a veggie plate but my GAWD it was so delicious I ordered another plate to go!
The food was wonderful! Hot & fresh! Prices were fabulous!! All you can eat Southern food!! Great way to eat before you start a holy fast!!!

Some might tell you it’s at 1401 W MLK in Plant City, FL but in fact, Fred’s sits at the intersection of quality and quantity.
It’s not often - if ever - that I go to a buffet, get WAY too much food and finish it all, but that’s exactly what happened.
I was somehow able to power through the pain, the brain fog and ultimately the food coma - all because the food tasted so damn good. I even went back for a peach cobbler topped with vanilla ice cream (not pictured).
I don’t go to Plant City very often, but when I do I’ll eat at Fred’s.
Pretty sure our bill was around $50 (pre-tip)
Delicious home cooked food. So many items to choose from. Depending on the option you pick, you can eat as much as you'd like. Friendly staff, attentive waitress. Wish we had this back home.
