We went to Fricker's twice while in town visiting family. The food was tasty and the price was reasonable. The service was superb. Angel served us the first night. She was so nice and took great care of us. Avery served us the second time and spent extra time to take a family photo even though she was super busy. She even took a sneaky selfie to complete the wonderful memory! Many thanks to both ladies. read more

Chicken was boneless and fricken great!! Hats off to who did chicken 4/22/24 @ 6-7pm read more

Definitely old school vibe with old time beer mirrors and decor around the place. Big menu with lots of pub food choices. We got the sweet chili wings which came out hot crispy and tasty with real blue cheese which is very much appreciated. Hot dog nuggets were hot and tasty. Served with cocktail sauce which is an underrated condiment. Chicken sliders are a must try. Good times at frickers. Will be back!!! read more

It's a great sports bar with sports bar food and wings. Don't expect more than that and you'll love this place. The wings are some of the best around and the appetizers don't disappoint either. Just expect bar/sports bar food and it will be good. There are plenty of wing sauces to choose from and tasty. The burger and chicken sandwich are a good choice as well. I've never had bad service at one of the many units they have and very friendly. read more

Haven't been to a Frickers in years, we used to go to the one in our hometown when our kids were small because I think they had kids eat free promotions. In have always like their wings! I'm traveling to that state up north, and want wings, but boneless for the car. I know...but there was no time for a sit down, so I stopped at bowling green location since they are right off the road. I go in, I have to wait 2 minutes before, Megan comes over to ask me where I want to sit. I tell her I want carry out, she takes my order, I get the boneless brew and bbq special, it's $12.99, she tells me it will be 15min. I walk over to speedway, only two doors, and get a drink, put the drink in my car, and head back in to wait.....but my order is already ready. I double check with Megan, yep it's mine, more like 5 minutes. The boneless wings are great, and the brew fry's are wonderful ...... were the rib tips the best I've ever had???? No. We're they good? Yes, and for the price this is a deal....ya all seen food prices lately. I regret not going to Frickers more now. Boneless wings for the car and real wing when you have time for a sit down meal. Rib tips for the car, 1/2 rack when you have time for a sit down meal. Fricker's boneless brew and bbq was sent by the bbq gods to satisfy my wing and rib craving on the go! read more

Seems like most folks who dine here have a strong love it or hate it type feel and there doesn't seem to be much middle ground. As you can see, I didn't bother to read the reviews before I came in here because by this point in my trip back to Detroit, I stopped caring and needed something to eat that wasn't fast food. Hunger pain had set in, and I was desperate for nutrients. Plus, I didn't want to stop in Toledo with all the construction, so I ended up here. *sigh* The place was was busy for a Sunday afternoon, and its immediately off the expressway. Literally. I walked in and the place was kind of jamming for a holiday weekend, so I was like hhhmm, maybe this place is going to be good? I wasn't starving/hangry but needed to get food. I was seated shortly after arriving and the place is most definitely a sports bar. lots of TV's, Nascar on, and all that jazz. I gathered from all the signage that their schtik was wings. I looked at the menu and the minimum order for wings was a quantity of 10. that was way to much for me as I still had a full 2 + hour drive home so no leftovers. Reviewed the menu some more and went with the 4 beef sliders since that was more my speed for today. My server was friendly and nice, but not speedy at all. My food didn't take that long to prepare and she came out with it in a jiffy. I was sad because they don't offer any sides with most of their dishes unless you want an entrée. No fries, coleslaw, nothing. Fine. I was surprised. While my time here was adequate and okay, I swear there is no decent food to be had between Toledo and Columbus. It's literally either Bob Evan's, fast food or weird places like this. Next time I'm just going to bite the bullet and eat in Toledo! read more

Seems like a nice bar with food but not great. After driving by several times, I tried it out. Service was just ok, had to ask a couple times for things like refills and such. Waitress was busy messing with the other waitress's. Salad was below par with a little bit of chicken and barely cut iceberg lettuce. The ambiance was your normal tv's and such. I most likely won't be back. read more

Manage your expectations when you go here, and you'll be ok. The food is greasy chicken wing variations. Big menu but not really a big variety of food. Fried Chicken tacos, quesadillas, wraps. Ranch or blue cheese. Some sliders. Standard bar fare. Standard beer offerings. Ate outside and a man was continuously smoking right next to the front door. It was very smelly. read more

Worst service ever. Came in at 5 on Labor Day. Hostess told us to sit anywhere. We did. And that was it. No one stopped by. No one asked for an order. After 20 minutes I asked the hostess when we would be served? She just smiled and looked at me dumbly. Come to think of it, what does a hostess do if you seat yourself? Needless to say, a server was ringing up a check and said she was getting off her shift, that's why she didn't help. So.... Left and went down to ElZarape. Was immediately seated, brought chips, and a 32oz beer. Life is too short to eat at Frickers! read more

I absolutely like this place my family's first time in a Frickers and it was delightful to say the least ...the atmosphere is a sports bar kinda resembles Hooters in appearance and decor but not in servers dress attire . The food is great there the chicken they serve on sundays is awesome I cant remember the name of it but its it's phenomenal I also ordered grilled chicken salad and the chicken was extremely tender and the grilled flavor was just right. Mini corn dogs for the kids and by the way kids eat free everyday with purchase of a entree and drink from adult , this idea is a great selling point for family's.....the last point I want to make is that the service was the best I've had in a long time ,our drinks never saw pasta half full glass and all of our needs were attended to lightning fast . So this particular Frickers I will return to undoubtedly....thank you Frickers read more

Stopped in to use the restroom and grab a Togo sprite the bartender was extremely peculiar and the women's restroom is stranger the toilet is literally on the ground a great way to get those squats in I suppose read more

Not sure why all the negative reviews. Most of them are old I guess so i thought I'd help out. We were passing through town and came across this place. I'm always a fan when they have a great selection of sauces, especially hot ones. (Texas Pete is not my idea of hot) anyways I went with the Kicker. It had a great flavor and amount of heat. I had to ask for more on the side because I really like my chicken drenched and once I did that it was perfect. Our waitress was very attentive. Freshly picked grass and boiled nails were a fun addition to the appetizer menu. Overall it was a good experience. read more

Waited 30 minutes for gross, soggy, and barely cooked chicken. The place was also very dark inside, could barely see anything, and the water tasted like they were someone's sweaty boots. read more

Amazing food and amazing service. They were packed and understaffed. Everyone was busting their butt and it did not go unnoticed by me.

First time visiting the area, and this establishment. I went here with my work crew, and was sadden by the bar selection since I don't drink beer or that low level bar range. I never realized I'm a top shelf drinker since my only option was wine to choose, and sadly the wine made me feel bad because it was only sutter homes nonetheless it made me feel like I was meant to be on flight in the air the way it was served in the mini bottle and small glass for you to pour it in. The food is all bar style food so trust you want be disappointed if you love bar food, and bar drinks. I'll pass if they we they say let's go to Frickers...this is not my cup of tea or environment. read more

I like the food it's prices reasonable and has a large selection to choose from. The staff is very attentive

Service is great, but it's not a place for African Americans. You will get stares by some of the sitting customers and mean mugs throughout the restaurant. I told a waitress about my experience and she just said "okay". There isn't much she could do, but it would have been nice to hear that she was sorry about our experience. I felt disgusted by the prejudice environment, I will probably never go back if there is a crowd. read more

Fun atmosphere, great prices and good service. We could easily find a spot to eat for our group of ten. The funnel sticks were amazing. And wings were best with sauce. read more

I've seen Fricker's for years along the highway, but I was unfamiliar with it and never stopped. Finally I decided to try it and it's pretty good. Ultimately it's a chicken wing place with some additional options. I decided to have the Beef & Bird, which was a sirloin steak and 5-6 chicken wings. It comes with one sides and I chose Caesar salad. I got Garlic Parmesan flavored wings and that's a delicious sauce! It was actually great to dip the steak in the garlic Parmesan sauce as well. My wife enjoyed the steak sandwich and my daughter liked the boneless wings, which were a huge portion. I got my wings bone-in and naked with Garlic Parmesan sauce. They were great! read more

Was in the area for work and figured I would give this place a try, despite the reviews. Man I should of trusted the reviews!!!! This place is absolutely terrible. Took 15 minutes for someone to acknowledge that I was there despite all of the waitresses standing 10 feet from me they were far to busy gossiping. What a joke. Don't waist your time or your money go to McDonald's instead. Pre made microwaved pizza and bunch of other garbage. read more

I love chicken wings and this place had the best chicken wings I have had in a long time. I highly recommend getting the traditional chicken wings with the sweet chili. The flavor and quality of the wings are great! I also recommend starting the meal off with onion straws. The sauce that comes with them is amazing! The service was fast and the staff was friendly! read more

Food was mediocre. Bartender (20-year-old airhead) tried to tell me that the Rhinegeist Truth is not an IPA and got really irritated when I corrected her. The manager seemed cool, but the employees were a bunch of assholes. I was in from out of town and won't ever go back. read more

First and foremost I want to say I love Frickers. They have the best wings that I have found in the state of Ohio over the last three decades. I hate that they are not in Columbus because I would drive by all of their competitors to go to Frickers. I do stop whenever I can, no matter where I am on the I-75 coridoor. Seems like the majority of the issues I see in the reviews are for service or food other than wings or something that is fried. In this millenium when I come here I am getting it to go or eating at the bar and have not had issues. I come here for wings and the Fricker wing is larger, meatier, juicier, and a better price or value than any of their competitors. (BW, Roosters, Winking Lizard, Wing Stop, Quaker Steak) You have the option of boneless, breaded, or naked wings. My preference is the naked with heavy sauce or rubs. You also get a choice of twenty or so sauces or rubs. I am partial to their cajun rub, really like their Sweet Chili (it reminds me of the old Damons wings) and bourban molasses (not too sweet, not too bitey), but also rotate a combination of their exclusive buffalo styles of Kicker and Killer. Big Fan of their fried pickles and jalepenos and the fried veggie platter of zucchini, mushrooms, & cauliflower. I don't eat cauliflower, but i eat them at Frickers. I think they have a really good curly fries and I have a hard time picking between their green beans and baked beans. They do have good daily specials and if not mistaken kids eat free with an adult for dine in. That doesn't happen many places these days, mom and pop or with the corporate chains. After a half dozen trips this year, i always had good service. I got my order quickly, it was always complete, and it was always fresh. The worst part about carryout is having to cover it up and waiting to eat it somewhere else. I would recommend this chain and location to anyone. read more

You can have a tasty meal at Fricker's, but you have to know what to get going in. The menu is very hit-and-miss, something I had to learn by trial and error. So what's good? The fries, frickles(fried pickles), and ribeye sandwich are all great, and the wings are solid, though if you get them ask for "naked" because they put way too much breading on the regular style. On the other hand, avoid the burgers, which are awful, and anything "Mexican" which will probably be mediocre. When it comes to drink and atmosphere, Fricker's is your typical sports bar: big national brand beers, lots of TVs and jerseys on the wall, sometimes rowdy patrons, etc. The staff have usually been friendly and on point, and I appreciate Fricker's late night hours. It's also a little cheaper than similar options like BWWs, especially if you get one of the daily specials. Overall, Fricker's is not somewhere I would plan a nice meal, but I do enjoy occasionally stopping in for a late night snack or to catch a game with some beer and wings. read more

I always go to Fricker's when I am near one, because I grew up in Dayton but we don't have any in Cleveland. So I stopped in here on a Sunday. Note that they don't serve liquor on Sundays, just beer. I wanted a crown and coke. I definitely would have stuck to water because I wasn't in the mood for beer, but our server (tall girl with really long blonde hair) quickly suggested cider. What a good suggestion, because I do like cider. She definitely earned herself points there. My wings and fries were fine, but I was disappointed that they no longer have the cheese with little bits of peppers and such in it. Came out +26 dollars on Keno, so it was a good visit. read more

Hot food. Cold beer. Fast service. Can't ask for much more. Variety of food. Wings, burgers, quesadillas, nachos, etc. Kids menu as well. Late night kitchen hours, which is always a bonus. read more

Let me start by saying, I travel all over the country and have eaten at A LOT of restaurants, and this is by far THE WORST food I have ever had in my life... Everything on the menu has been Frickerized; from nachos to cob salad. Taking two of the most basic Fricken meals, and making them not only visually unappealing, but also un-flavorful and one of those meals you eat just because you're hungry and ordered it. My advice; absolutely choose another restaurant. read more

I love Frickers. I like Frickers over Buffalo Wild Wings because it feels less cooperate. It is more of a down home sports bar. There are TVs everywhere. If i ask them to change a particular TV to a certain game I want To watch they do it without even thinking twice. They have daily specials. They have my favorite beer on tap. They have a wide selection of wing sauces and they are amazing. All of the servers are very nice and know the menu. If I ask for a suggestion they always know the right thing to recommend. They have a game room for the kids and its very family friendly. read more

This place has drastically gone downhill. The waitress failed to introduce herself so I had to ask for her name and she gave a dirty look and said her name is cat or catelin(not sure how you spell it) had us wait for approximately 30minutes before we got our refills, made numerous looks at our table and seen the empty glasses on the table. We also waited close to 45minutes for our food that was room temperature. After proceeding to speak with the manager he basically told us "oh sorry there's nothing we can do about that" our waitress walked by and gave us yet another dirty look. By far the worst the restaurant has been and wouldn't recommend going here at all. read more

Ok. Have been back 2-3 times. Service is ok, wings are decent especially drums. Hoping the other items have improved Changed from 1* to 3*

When I got there we were not greeted and it took 10 minutes just to ask for a table. When we got to the table we were not greeted by any server after 40 minutes even after repeatedly asking for service. Awful performance. We ended up leaving without a word from the staff. read more

In town for a baseball tournament. Since it was walking distance from our seedy Days inn motel, we divided to have dinner here. I had the beer battered fish. It was tasteless and it was one of the worst I have ever tasted. Disappointing. read more

We went here with a big group on Saturday night, and they got us seated right away. I've been here numerous times, and I definitely enjoy their wings. I wanted something spicy, so I got the Lil' Kicker boneless wings. It wasn't spicy or particularly good. Luckily, my buddy had gotten the kicker, and that was better. And another friend had gotten the Medium bone-in wings, and those were pretty good as well. I also went with the curly fries, and those were tasty with a side of ranch. Sadly, the service was terribly slow, and it took a good 10 minutes to get our change. In general, Fricker's is a pretty good place to get wings. It's definitely worth checking out, and I'll be back again sometime. read more

Good local sports bar type atmosphere, food was ok. The appetizer nachos were a sloppy mess with more toppings than chips. Beer specials were pretty good, $2 for tall domestics. read more

We waited 45 minutes and were only served half of our food (10 people-5 adults and 5 children). The chicken on my salad was cold. Our chicken wings tasted "old" and this was probably due to our food sitting for so long. Our waitress was no where to be found for the majority of our visit. We hadn't seen her since dropped our drinks off and never checked on us. Also, the sweet tea had a funny taste and we were NEVER offered refills! It was only until we got up to leave when she acknowledged that we were waiting. Highly disappointed in this establishment. read more

Not great. Slow service. Tables aren't clean. Bathrooms are unclean. Food was not fresh. My adult meal had the same amount of food as the kids meal. read more

I ordered my steak, and I quote, well done and no pink whatsoever! My well-done steak was pinker than my husband's medium well. I sent it back to be re-cooked. It came back out, delivered by a lady that was different than my server. I cut into an outside piece and it was light brown. The lady that brought it out came right back over and asked if it was better. I said it appears so. Well, until I cut again. It was just about as pink before. To me it appeared the only thing that was cooked, or should I say re-cooked, was the onions that were sent back with the steak. The grilled onions came back out well, well, well done but the steak was no better. In the end, I ate the chicken off of my steak and chicken platter which was very disappointing as steak was what I went for. Your cooks need trained or re-trained as to what well-done actually means. And if I send it back it needs to come back brown all the way through. I would've still called that steak medium well at best and that is not at all acceptable. The only reason I did not complain... We had a wonderful server who was really sweet and did her job and the cook not following the customer order was not her fault. We usually only go to the Fricker's in Sidney, Ohio and I rather doubt we will be back to the BG location. To add insult to injury my husband's chicken, the boneless wings, were ice cold (mine were at least hot and fresh), His were not. Not a good first visit to this location for sure! read more
