Fred’s Texas Cafe on Currie Street in Fort Worth has been a Linwood neighborhood institution since it opened in 1983, serving the kind of no-nonsense Texas burgers and comfort food that earns a decades-long loyal following in a city that takes its food seriously. It appeared in Season 6, Episode 9 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “All Kinds of Classics,” which aired June 8, 2009. Guy Fieri found a Texas burger joint doing exactly what a Texas burger joint should do: fresh beef, big portions, honest prices, and an atmosphere that is exactly what a neighborhood bar and grill in Fort Worth has always looked like. The kitchen’s approach — make everything from scratch, keep the menu focused, serve it cold or hot as appropriate — is the approach that has kept Fred’s full since 1983.
