"Best of the Best! Fred's is one of Batesville's best and I think the oldest restaurant, my knowledge, is still exactly the way it was. Probably the best fried catfish in the state and possibly in the south. The Hushpuppies, Slav, pickled green tomatoes and pint beans are also remarkable. Fred's is the perfect place for a delicious South Family Dinner, east of Batesville past Walmart it is worth the trip to the city!"
