AlAnoud A AlGhunaimAugust 19, 2017Reservations are required! Lively place with a pitch of elegance, always great for lunches. Their pommes frites (Belgian fries) are the best in town. Club salad and margarita pizza, lobster club👌🏻❤️
Paul SanwaldOctober 6, 2015It's top floor of barneys, and priced that way. If you can get yourself ok with the idea of a 27 dollar salad, you can get a delicious lunch at Fred's. Club salad is A+
This is our go-to place for a business lunch or to spot a celebrity or to just enjoy a delicious Club Salad or Warm Lobster Salad.- Tracy QuashaOctober 30, 2017Amazing food. Oyster mushroom salad and chicken noddle soup are my favorites. Good thin crust pizza too. Fun lunch spot. Quiet dinner spot.
Jordan MJanuary 29, 2016Get the Fred's chopped chicken salad and a mimosa for a perfect pre-shopping brunch. You'll leave feeling light and lightheaded 😘
Serious EatsSeptember 3, 2014On Sundays they bake the city's best bagels--really. Place your order by Friday at 5 p.m. to take home a dozen, or get them with lox at brunch.- Celebrity spotting at it’s best. While you’re gawking at the elite, dine Grilled Calamari and then the amazing Lobster Club Sandwich. The service here is equally amazing.
Perhaps one of my favorite places to have lunch. The lobster bisque is my weakness year round. No bad choices on the menu IMO.
BisousbelleApril 1, 2015bravo barney's! great vegan options. one offering in each category (pasta, pizza, salad, soup) #vegan #shopperslunch #barneysnyc
Michelle LoraNovember 6, 2013Vegans can eat here with 3 daily vegan options. Today was the carrot finger soup, quinoa salad (smells weird due to the cabbage) an a pasta option.
ryan broganFebruary 26, 2012Lobster club was good but nothing spectacular; My dining companion has the warm lobster salad loved it. There must be some other gems on the menu--we went for the obvious.
BlackBook MagazineNovember 27, 2012Most in-store restaurants aren't much of an escape, but Fred's at Barney's could easily stand on its own merits. Order a vodka martini, up, with olives. And maybe something to nosh. Read more
AmateurConciergeJanuary 24, 2015One of the most accommodating kitchens in New York at this classic midtown power lunch spot
Linnie DApril 4, 2015The Palm beach shrimp salad is $35 but big enough to share. Ask for green goddess and balsamic on the side.
Megan JohnsonJanuary 18, 2015Great salads (crab and shrimp, Palm Beach salad with green goddess dressing), but the turkey club was pretty flavorless.
The Daily MealJune 30, 2011Fred's has a menu that consistently gets raves (the lobster club is a favorite). Lunch is absolutely bustling (with more than just shoppers), so try to get in early. Read more
Fiona HeathyeatsAugust 12, 2015Best place in NYC. Celeb sightings everywhere -- get the white bread, fries, & penne with marinara.
Sari SignorelliApril 3, 2012Excellent chicken soup, lasagna bolognese and pizzas. To go available, too, great for Lubin House stays when you're exhausted.
ToryBurchMay 5, 2011Fred's, the restaurant at Barneys, makes a great robiola pizza and Virgin Mary (you can order it extra spicy). Share the fries with spicy dipping sauces.
clive kornitzerJanuary 5, 2019Amazing vibe great food look out for celebs and general people watching
Rush to the bar if you want to skip the waiting line and get the seat right away.
Sit at the bar and hang with Hasaan. It's the best place for people watching.
Declan ConnollyFebruary 1, 2012Try Fred's for dinner, great food. much quieter than the maddening lunch crowd. Try the meatballs or the chicken parm!!!!
Even though Barneys is closed, Freds is still open! Entrance on Madison.
Pam R.November 22, 2012Brunch at the bar with Natalie and Samira. Turkey burger, club sandwich are the best options.

Paramita MukhopadhyayMarch 12, 2016Salads are superb with fresh ingredients...but portions are large...
Gossip GirlApril 23, 2010S may have acted in Breakfast at Fred's, but the real star of the 9th floor Barneys’ restaurant is the Fred’s chicken salad. And S knows it too.
Tim SheyDecember 22, 2011Ask for the spaghetti and meatballs. They're not on the menu, but always available, and fantastic.- AmateurConciergeAugust 28, 2016WARNING: WEDGE SALAD DOES NOT HAVE BACON. Wtf. Also, tomatoes should be chosen based on taste, not appearance. That is all.
Lobster gnocchi are amazing. Their risottos are usually great too
Yossinee NanakornAugust 24, 2010Oh, My... The atmosphere is just as nice as the food!! Try the club salad and enjoy people-watching! Great service, too!
Prin BacalanAugust 3, 2011The grilled shrimp was the perfect pre-shopping meal. And careful, the drinks are STRONG.
