Fricker's is a good spot to watch a game while enjoying a meal that won't break the bank. We have been there a dozen times over the years we have lived in Adrian and every time we visit, I walk away wondering why we don't go there a little more often. This place is part of a regional chain with 24 locations at the time of this writing. Twenty-two (22) are in Ohio, one is in Indiana and this shop is the only one in Michigan. This particular establishment is well placed as it is easy to find on S. Main St. near Beecher. The storefront and internal decor are standard corporate design as the concept is meant to present the appearance of a simple, rustic neighborhood bar. The seating area is relatively spacious and, of course, the large bar area is prominently placed, front and center. There are always a couple of games or at least sports programming playing. The menu presents standard bar fare featuring wings as its signature offering. The food there is actually relatively good and there are a couple of healthy options, such as salads, among the copious fried fare. The service has generally been pretty good each time we have visited. I do not recall a bad experience. One of the best features besides the atmosphere are the prices. This is truly one of the best values in Adrian as the cost will not break the bank. On our last visit, the cost for our party of three was $13 per person with appetizer, entrees, drinks, tip and tax. Overall, I would recommend this place if you are in Adrian and like bar food. This establishment is usually energetic with a sports theme if you like that sort of atmosphere. Best of all, it is quite a good deal which is a big part of what makes it popular. read more

I went here on 4/9/26 around 8 PM and had a pretty bad experience. I ordered a Long Island, and it came out super watery--honestly tasted terrible. I told my waiter (who was actually very nice) and asked who made the drink. She said it was the manager. I let her know the drink wasn't good and asked if I could get something else, which I think is reasonable. What really turned me off was the manager trying to make me pay for the drink anyway. That's just not good customer service. Definitely won't be coming back read more

Decent place. I had a fried bologna sandwich. Different The Boneless chicken was good with the fire sauce.

Tuesday 12/09/2025 Stopped into Frickers in Adrain about 7pm just maybe 12 customers inside thought oh cool their not busy it won't take long. Sign said seat yourself and multiple staff on behind bar and serving the few customers looked at our party of 4 never greeted us but that was ok it happens. But no one ever came to our table we sat for 15 minutes and waitress served guys at high top more beers looked at us and walked away. So we got up walked out wth the staff looking at us and still not saying a word. Went up the street to Cancun and enjoyed a drink and delicious dinner. Im a server and this is sad Frickers deserves better staff to keep that place strong as it use to be. read more

Rena by name tag but Karrin by bill was the rudest individual. She asked me what I wanted on my burger and then made me tell her what I didn't want on my burger . When the food came out she insisted that there was mayo on the burger which I had checked already then had to show her to prove there was no mayo before she would get me the mayo along with the A1 I previously requested upon ordering. The food was MUAH . Likely will not come here again! read more

One of my spots when I visit Adrian. Love the staff and the food and they have the coldest beer in town. Covid kinda messed with this business tho for sure. They close earlier in large part to this being a bar/restaurant that is more of just a restaurant and not so much a bar anymore. They have keno and pull tabs and scratchers which is fun. Shout out to my girls Lucy, Low and Kenz. read more

Drinks are good!! Their Old fashion isn't the best! Food is ok but never as good as Frickers in Sylvania Ohio. Burgers less than special I know it's a chicken place so... read more

Service gets worse every week. My friends have been coming here once a week for years. This time not only was service slow and the food cold, my carrot was totally wrong!! It was supposed to be chicken quesadillas with salsa and instead it was a chicken wrap with ranch!! read more

Good Wings, expected pricing for wings but slow service, typical Sports Bar atmosphere.

I had been here, years ago, with friends over 15 years ago, if not longer, it has been around for while. I get through Adrian, Michigan frequently, thought it was a good time to go back. Walking in about 4 pm, there were a few tables occupied, the bar section seemed busier. The waiter seemed friendly and wasngood with service. I ordered a chicken sandwich, she ordered chicken nachos, and Bobbie ordered chicken wings. My sandwich was very good, with lots of toppings with it, I ate mine, but the others took home to go boxes. The restaurant had a holiday theme with a Christmas tree. read more

Good food..good service!! Nice atmosphere!! We go there occasionally and have tried multiple items on their menu!!

Thursday afternoon, we sat for 20 minutes with no acknowledgment from waiters walking around us. restaurant wasn't busy. we walked out, no drinks, no food. DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

Great service welcoming atmosphere and delicious food. Waitress recommended delicious food. General manager very warm and friendly. Overall great dining experience. Highly recommend read more

First time at Fricker's and the food was delish's. Staff was so friendly too. Waiting to go back to try different food next time.

We came to this location for 2 weekends in a row. We came after the rodeo each time so we didn't get there until about 10 pm or so. Even though we came in a large group both times they were very polite to us. I normally order the fricken chicken nachos to any frickers I go to. Last weekend was the best I have had and tonight was even better. Their food and service were great. Compliments to the cook!! Everyone was happy with their food. We used to stop here after the rodeo and sang a song or two at karaoke. We miss that but assume that covid put a stop to that. read more

Absolutely disgusting food. I got it on Doordash, but will never eat here again. The fries were raw potato crunchy on the inside, and soggy on the outside. I also was loaded up with lettuce after I specifically called Frickers, and was told none would be added since the restaurant doesn't allow for special requests on Doordash. It's $25 completely wasted, and I would never eat this food again. read more

Service was horrible. There was a hostess who told us to sit where we wanted and we never got a server to help us after 15 minutes but the 3 tables that came in way after us were served. 0 out of 10 stars but Jeds was awesome read more

My favorite in Adrian. For Chicken, Wings, and things... this is IT. Service, atmosphere, people, food, drinks, parking, heated (with roof) smoking area in the winter, lots of TV's. Friendly staff, friendly patrons, this is Adrian's Cheers. The Wi-Fi is smokin fast too. read more

I've only visited once and won't come back. Got seated immediately and waited over an hour for our food. The waitress never came to check on us and the food was disgusting, we all left hungry and disappointed with the entire experience. Seems like more of a place to get drinks at the bar than a sit down family style restaurant. read more

I just made a Yelp account today because of how bad this restaurant is. This place straight up sucks. The food is terrible and the service can blow me. I got to-go boxes for my food and left them there because the food was so shitty. read more

The only location that can get my very picky request of naked boneless wings correct (I've been to the Toledo location a few times and their "naked" wings always contain some amount of breading) and make them taste delicious. Also, shout out to Lucy, the best bartender in Lenawee County. read more

Watch your bill when you leave. I was charged $52.00 for 20 chicken wings. Was always my favorite place to eat but I will never step foot in there again, The management seemed as though they were going to help then started suggesting they had video of my husband (who they don't know) buying rounds for people named Chip (who he also doesn't know. I asked for the receipt was told it was signed by Fred... no Fred here. Also, the waitress gave herself a very generous tip! By the way, the wings were not even good that day! read more

Nicest hangout sports bar in Adrain by far. Perfect for family and friends. They have tons of tvs to catch your favorite game or show, a nice large bar, plenty of seating, outside patio with tvs so you never miss anything, heated and always clean smoking shed, keno and pull tabs, karaoke every other Saturday, daily $5 lunch specials, great mix drinks, great food and wonderful desserts, holiday party's with prize drawings, great staff, all around a good place. I'd love to note the size of the wings, they are substantially bigger then any other chicken wing sports bar. You can get chicken, steak, fish and even shrimp! The portions are great for the price, and they have some awesome new appetizers and dry rubs to try. Let's not forget free fast Wi-Fi! read more

Fricker's - Sports Bars Near Me - ADRIAN, Michigan

First visit. Sign said to seat yourself. Waited for 15 minutes while waitress delivered food to two adjacent tables. Never greeted or helped. Poor service and we left to never return. read more

Love they bone-in breaded wings! Sauces great and wings are huge. Boneless are not as good as other wing places but many other menu items are great- steak sandwich and side pasta salad are both family favorites! read more

Way over priced for the food. Wings were not cooked enough. The mild sauce was no sauce at all. The honey barbecue sauce was hot sauce. 50 wings and 2 order of fries $74.17. read more

This is the best place for wings. The wings are normal size, a great price, the sauces are delicious, and the other food is great too. If you have tried frickers you can't go back to Buffalo Wild Wings. If you do you will be kicking, screaming and crying like a little baby to go back to frickers were you belong. I am very unlucky. I do not live close to a frickers, but if were are in town this is the only place we will eat. If we are one a road trip and see a frickers sign you better believe that we are stopping. I WISH I LIVED CLOSE or even closer than a two hour drive to the nearest frickers. :( Just writing this review is very depressing. For people that love your wings you will understand once you visit, if you are not a fan of chicken wings you just will not understand. read more

My personal favorite place in Adrian. Maybe I am a bit bias as I am good friends with a large chunk of the waitresses and bartenders but at one point I didn't know anyone and still went all the time. The beer is cold, the wings are hot (if you order them that way), the staff is beautiful and the sports are plenty. If you want to catch a game, a UFC fight or just a drink this should be your Adrian HQ. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because the bulk of the seats are hard bar stools and get a little painful if your sitting down for a weekend session. If you look close at the beach party photos on the wall you might even see your friendly reviewer in his favorite What Would (Jason) Do shirt. read more

I have come many more times since I first reviewed so I decided to update my review. It was pretty crowded every time I came but most every time the service was still great. Only once was it so-so and the waitress comped a lot of our bill. I still think that the mixed drinks here are cheaper than most anywhere else. Even the other Fricker's in other locations are more. I have only once had food that I didn't love as well. Most every time, it's really good. The new desserts are delicious! Also, the bartenders are usually awesome and can make most any drink I request. Still my favorite bar! read more

Poor service and took forever to get our food. My wife ordered sliders and they forgot them originally. The rest of the family ate their entire lunch and paid their ticket before her sliders ever made it out. The family was finished eating and 10 minutes later her sliders still weren't delivered. People from other tables came in after us got their food ate and left before we received my wife's sliders. This is unacceptable. Not good at all. read more

Always loved coming to this place but guess B Dub stole all their help. Bar is understaffed. Sad. My old review was this: Cold beer. Good service. Enjoy the food and lots of TVs. Always hit it during nascar race weekends. read more

The staff was ok.then the manager walked out and said we need to leave bc my moms boyfriend has a medical condition and me and my mom didn't have a mask. The manager said we needed proof the he had a medical condition. The manager wouldn't let the staff serve us. I don't recommend you go there it's the worst read more

I ordered boneless buffalo wings and they were easily the worst I have ever had. I could barely chew the darn things. I would definitely recommend only going here for the beer and abundance of TV's. read more

Frickers Troy has become so poorly run we won't be going back. Clearly they have no training program for their wait staff. Can't take an order, can't even bring simple things like silverware without being ask multiple times. I know they higher young people with little experience but it's obvious no one trains them on the proper way to wait tables. So my tip reflected the same lack of care. Successful restaurants stay successful based on three things; food quality, cleanliness and service. This one fails on at least one count. read more

Decent prices and the food was pretty good. However, Bridget was the start of the show today! Noticing that my food was taking longer than normal, she made some adjustments to my bill and the fact that she thought about that was a HUGE bonus to me. Much appreciated and I will be back! read more

Food was cold. I love hot and spicy but must have flavor. Their scream sauce has no flavor that is good. The steak was over done and cold. Beans were cold and blan. Only thing that was warm was the blue cheese dip for the celery and that is not suppose to be. There is no way I will ever subject my friends or family to this place again. Oh almost forgot service was horrible. Waitress stood against wall by kitchen and did nothing. read more

Best place around for wings. Manager Jeff and his bartending staff rock every time we are here, which is at least weekly. You gotta come and get some great wings. read more

The service can be hit or miss. They often don't have enough staff on busy nights but the same can be said about any place during the recession. I used to come here after work 3 or 4 times a week for a cold beer and some wings. I stopped ordering the wings because they were coming to me with the tip still frozen. I believe its popular only for the fact that its one of the few places in Adrian to get this type of experience. Plenty of TV's and a $10 min charge during UFC fights (to be expected) read more

I've been to frickers twice and both times the chicken was raw inside. The waitstaff was friendly and the atmosphere is fun but i just cant eat there anymore. read more
