Classic po' boys, daily plates, and a true NOLA vibe
"More known for its breakfast and lunch plates than for “making groceries,” this joint is old school and proud of it. Frady’s is about as basic as it gets; orders are to-go and cash only. The fried shrimp and oyster or juicy roast beef with provolone are good bets. Tradition dictates chowing down at one of the shaded benches out front or sidewalk tables on Piety." - Eater Staff
"Off-beat decor, outlandish stories, and longtime characters — what’s not to like about the longtime cheap eats haven on the corner of Piety and Dauphine? Frady’s is as basic as it gets, but the po’ boys are made to order and the sides are pure comfort (mac and cheese, deviled eggs, fries with gravy). Plate lunch options change daily and the service is real deal New Orleans friendly; orders are to go and it’s cash only." - Beth D’Addono
"Although best known as the home of the grumpy old man breakfast, this cash-only corner breakfast and lunch spot in Bywater offers a blue plate lunch special every day but Sunday, when it’s closed. Frady’s meatloaf is wildly popular, with sides from mashed potatoes to muffuletta salad to broccoli rice. There’s always a cast of characters hanging outside, part of its charm." - Beth D’Addono
"Off-beat decor, longtime characters, and classic New Orleans eats define this Bywater corner spot. Known for po’ boys, muffulettas, and daily lunch plates like red beans and rice, jambalaya and catfish, and more, it’s a longtime essential for a mid-day meal. No seating inside, but the sidewalk tables make for great people-watching." - Eater Staff
"Another po’ boy place to show up on the show, Frady’s is a longtime cash-only Bywater favorite for breakfast and lunch plates." - Missy Frederick
