13 Best Cafes in Frederick

“We love this place. Delicious food, friendly and and accommodating owners. This is now our stop on trips from NJ to VA and back.“

“We met up with family in Frederick and found this cute breakfast spot recommended by locals. Food and coffee were delicious! Staff meant business but they were down to earth. It was very busy but service was fast. We will definitely be back.“

“The brewing processes they use are worth your while. Come enjoy an expresso, siphoned cup or a pour over Americano. I grind and brew my own coffee and set a pretty high standard. Ibiza does it better than I do.“

“Lovely and calm, sunny little lunch café in the lobby of an office park building. Nice sandwiches, baked goods, and some fresh lunch selections, but no fresh coffee or drinks. However, there is a decent selection of bottled/canned coffees, teas, and other beverages. Prices are reasonable, and staff are friendly and helpful!“

“Thanks to Frederick Social for being awesome! We recently hosted an informal reunion gathering for about 30 people for The Frederick Children's Chorus and they were very thoughtful, accomodating, and communicative in our planning process. We had plenty of space reserved inside. The doors were open since it was beautiful weather and we also enjoyed the outdoor seating and flexibility of being able to get our own drinks while catching up. My favorite menu items have been the lentil sliders and the flatbread pizzas. I’ve also been there to get work done on quiet weekdays for meetings, and have enjoyed other events they host like Historians on Tap and karaoke nights. Overall great place and lovely owners! They often partner with local nonprofits and charities each month and is great to see ongoing community support in this way. It will remain in my rotation of Frederick spots for sure!“

“The best foods!!! Happy time !“

“I love a bookstore that no employee talks to you as your looking around. Cashier and I had a nice chat tho. She was nice“

“Best fish counter of any grocery store in the area. Very well organized, super clean, and very enticing displays. There is always a large whole fish, spectacular lobster tails, oysters or pikes of sea scallops, etc. couldn’t resist loading up on king salmon on the latest trip; it was delicious, pan fried with butter and rosemary. Staff is always very well informed about their products and helpful about cooking ideas.“

“Excellent quality food, love the decor, staff was friendly and attentive, super-sized meals. Nothing bad to say about this restaurant ... will visit again for sure!“

“I love this place! Highly recommended.“

“i love coming here for lunch they never disappoint me from customers service to accurate order to clean tables to fresh n hot food and refill on drinks this place is top of my list for relaxing and eating experience“

“Cafe Nola is a fun alternative cafe and bar located at the center of historic Frederick. I've been visiting Cafe Nola for 12 years as my staple restaurant of this area. It's friendly for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free individuals a like.

It's a perfect spot for a weekday date to sit at the bar and share one of their original shooter recipes, or even a mid-morning brunch and working spot featuring one of their beautifuly tailored cocktails.

Cafe Nola is a known gem in my opinion, so if you plan to visit on a weekend ensure you get your table early and get on the waitlist! But I guarantee you it is well worth the wait.

On accessibility: restrooms and the restaurant are generally wheelchair and stroller accessible, but there is two heavy doors through the entrance that I struggle to open. Additionally they have no available hook in at least one of their restrooms, which causes some issues for me as someone with a medical bag, or mom's with a diaper bag.

They're still 6/5 for being the best restaurant on the strip.“

“very good, great place to enjoy a nice breakfast with friends or family“
