We can't wait to welcome you to first Fred's Bread Bakery & Café! In addition to the authentic French breads and pastries you love, there will be a full menu with beer and wine to enjoy in our beautiful and comfortable dining room.

Construction is underway at 817 Noyes Street, right here in Evanston, and we're planning to open in late summer 2025.
