The food was good, however the pricing of this restaurant is very misleading. I ordered the following items: - Sandwich w fries ($12.99) - Drink ($2.75) - Cup of soup ($3.99) The total should have been $19.73 plus tax and tip. But what this restaurant does is they charge you for an "upgrade to soup", which means they substitute fries with the soup, charge you the amount of the soup, and if you want fries it's $4 extra. So I wound up paying around $25 instead. I didn't want to get into an argument with the staff, so I paid my bill and left. But that to me is an unethical business tactic. I won't be coming back. read more

Great burgers. The restaurant is a bit small and parking is scarce in downtown Davis. Burgers are a bit on the pricier side, but are some of the best ones you will taste. Buns tasted freshly baked. Also offer side salads at no additional charge as many other places do. Our server was new, so it took a bit for her to use multiple payment methods. They don't split checks here, so get cash if you're with a group. They didn't charge the sales tax to my card, but I'm not complaining. read more

I was visiting my older sister in Davis and we decided to stop here for lunch. I ordered the Swiss n Shroomer burger, while my sister ordered the Mex Cali burger. I love how you can customize how well you want your burger. When I got my burger, I couldn't wait to dig in! The fries were nice and crispy, one of the best fries I've ever had. The Swiss n Shroomer had a nice toasted bun, the Swiss cheese melted and gooey, and the meat was juicy and full of flavor. It felt like heaven in my mouth. I felt very satisfied with my burger. I will most likely visit again when I'm in the area! read more

Froggy's - Swiss n Shroom burger was delicious! - Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Great environment, friendly people. Burger was cooked to perfection. Drinks were okay.

The drinks are nice and cheap but the security guard were racist towards Asians. A drunk man attacked me when I was waiting for my friend to come out of the bathroom. This man was asking me aggressively staring at me "what's in my pockets" and he was just a customer that was drunk. The guy that attacked me was just a regular at the bar and because he was a regular the security guard took favor on him. I would not recommend this bar if you are Asian i don't serve this country to be discriminated. The security guard hugged him saying everything is fine I am so offended by this. I was dressed nicely because I came out of the house for once and now I feel like I should just stay home because I'm Asian and I don't fit in. Please make your bar a secure place where everyone can relax and have fun I literally came in and came out without ordering anything. I was sober and dragged out of the house by my friend so he can make my day after being heart broken but if this is how I get treated just for standing and waiting for my friend this is definitely not a bar you should go to read more

Did not realize that Cold Shot had moved their act from Sudwerk to here. Probably would have gotten another star if I had still been there then Still remember it as Paragon and at some point they served Thai food. What's with bars in Davis and Thai food? Always packed, good looking crowd, and they were one of the many 151 drinks I received on my 21st. read more

Just a nod and a picture of an incredible Roast Beef sandwich. Heaven! Everything I've had been nothing, but quality comfort food and Davis down hometown service. My absolute favorite store in town. read more

Froggy's - Pot Roast sandwich. 6 oz. - Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Froggy's is a cool bar in downtown Davis that always has a steady flow of patrons. I am a huge fan of the burgers here. The ingredients are high quality and the burger patty is juicy and tasty. Thank goodness for the spongey bun that soaks up all of the burger juices but doesn't ever fall apart. How does it do that? I've tried a bunch of different ones but my favorite is the Swiss and Shroomer. The service is usually good. Servers are attentive but not really all up in your face. One time though the server completely forgot to put in our order. After about 30 minutes of waiting we bounced because he didn't apologize and blamed it on the "lunch rush" though there were only 3 other tables that came in after us and all got their food before us. I'll let that little incident slide because the burger is just so damn good! read more

LOVED FROGGYS BURGERS. My 1st I ordered the cheeseburger sliders but then went back a week later and got a real burger. Didn't disappoint. Definitely best burger in davis! Went during lunch 12pm ish . Highly recommend read more

Froggy's - Firehouse burger - Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Some of the best burgers I have ever had. I'm stuck on the mushroom Swiss burger. Mushrooms and onions are cooked down in a sauce. It's ridiculous. I come her about 4 times a year, and no matter when I'm here I order my beer from the same beautiful inside and out bartender. She seems genuinely happy to have me, and all other customers, here. This is a sensitive moment for me. Sorry you had to witness it. read more

Hands down the best burgers and fries I have ever had in my life....I would drive all the way from San Francisco just to have one of their burgers. read more

It's a constant battle between Froggy's and Burgers and Brew, but for me personally, I prefer B&B. The food here is decent and the buns are definitely crispier...but I get this aftertaste of oil...that I just cannot take. It tastes like old oil, and it just really kills my appetite. It's always a hit or a miss here, so I don't come often...at least with B&B, I get consistency. read more

We have been several times and always enjoy. Casual atmosphere. Great beer. Great food. We especially enjoy the burgers and the variety of tots! read more

Solid burger - I don't know what else to say unless I want my friends to get mad at me for dissing their favorite burger place. Just kidding, that's not how a review works. Stopped by Froggy's on my way back from Tahoe because I heard really good things about Froggy's. In fact, I ate both Froggy's and their top competitor one after each other so I could compare it myself and honestly, I'd say that it's about equal. Froggy's is more of a smaller, hole-in-the-wall kind of location and they truly make a different burger. I ordered the Southern Cali and was introduced to my first burger with avocado spread (which is pretty much guacamole). I finished my half of the burger and ate the fries after sprinkling the 'magic dust' on the side. Solid Burger. Honestly taking the ambiance and the food into consideration, I would probably leave this with a 3.5 stars but the server who waited on us was super friendly and that definitely bumps it up to a 4. Would I come back? Maybe. But personally I think I'd make my way to Sacramento instead . read more

This is a cool place to get a little tipsy. In my book, this was never the last spot to drink but one of the first in a series of bar hopping locations. The only bad thing here is that it's always crowded and the bar area is small. The whole place is kinda just small. I've never been here during the day. So I don't know what happens before 10:00PM. In my experience, lots of my friends who are affiliated with Greek life come here, so you'll probably run into someone you know if you're Greek. I think sometimes they have karaoke here but I'm not sure. If you're looking for a place to sit down and chill, don't expect to find it here since it's always so busy. I'd recommend a different bar in Davis like G Street Pub. This is definitely a place to check out though. read more

Pretty tasty burgers! That Campus Special Coupon book has a 25% off coupon for burgers, which is the reason I first stopped by Froggy's for food. Perfectly grilled patties and buns, with the toppings (lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, etc.) on the side, so you can choose how much you want in your burger (and can always ask for more!). Their fries are also pretty tasty (not at all soggy, great crispiness level without being super burnt, and are perfect compliments to the burgers. Service is normal - not horrible, but not super friendly or anything, which is fine. I just like having my water refilled every now and then. The bar is okay - a little beat up and crowded at times, but I definitely don't mind because the bartenders are friendly! If you're turning 21, you get a free birthday shot along with a stamp on your forehead :) read more

Not sure if I'm supposed to write my review for here or Tommy J's or not, but I've been wanting to come here all week. I spent a week up here in Davis and this is the third place I've had a burger, and this by far trumps them all. I got the Jalapeno burger, which much to my surprise was actually very good. They satueed them really well and cook it right into the cheese, very tasty. I wish my burger was as saucy as my friends' burgers though. My friend's complaint about this place is it is always too wet and the bottom bun gets soggy. I really liked the burger here though, the bun was also very well toasted, and the meat was hot, well cooked, and delicious. The fries were also crispy and better than the other burger places I had. Would definitely want to come back and try everything else. read more

Fun atmosphere, the waitress was attentive, and the food was great. I ordered the sliders (comes with two) and they were a perfect serving size. My friend and I shared some fries and they were super crispy in the best way possible. Have only been here for drinks before so knowing the food is good too I'll definitely be returning. read more

After getting bombarded by some of my friends who claim that Froggy's is better than Burgers and Brew, I finally caved. (A burger joint better than Burgers and Brew? Blasphemy!) My friend excitedly took me there for the first time and immediately threw recommendations out to me. I ordered the (sorry, forgot what it was called!) burger with the guacamole, bacon, and cheese. I mean, you can't go wrong with that combo, right? The burger was tasty - but super greasy. Bleh! Sure, I'm not a health freak - but so much oil dripped out from the burger that my bottom bun was soaked by the time I was almost done with lunch. The salad was refreshing on the side, but nothing I couldn't make at home! Verdict? Burgers and Brew is still the best burger place in Davis! PS - now that I think about it... I've been to Froggy's many times! To drink though... not to eat. :) read more

Froggy's - Burger with guacamole, bacon, and cheese - Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Nice college bar, good Sunday football spot. Highs: nfl ticket, greasy breakfast food, decent coffee The lows: greasy breakfast food, no real milk/cream for coffee The bottom line: your quintessential college bar read more

I met a staff member at DeVere's and she recommend I checkout Froggy's. I'm glad I listened to her! The Southern Cali burger & fries were delicious and paired well with the Modern Times IPA! I absolutely loved how the avocado was spread across the bun instead of pieces like what Burgers & Brew sells. Made for easy eating :D In addition, the burger was actually cooked perfectly! You don't get that at Burgers & Brew EVER (medium should not be well done...) The bartender was super chill and the regulars sitting at the bar were easy going and very helpful with entrée recommendations. I will definitely be back. I can't wait to try the Tri Tip sliders, Mexi-Cali, Cali, Southwest or the BBQ Bacon Cheese burger. read more

My favorite burger place in Davis. Sure there's burgers and brew, but you just can't beat the blue buffalo burger here. Sure b&b might have better ambiance, but for the taste, you just can't beat froggys/tommyj's. When you come here for lunch, it's seat yourself, but there's usually no wait, at least the times I've been here. The servers are friendly and considerate. Today, we came here and it was pretty busy, so after we ordered, the waitress told us that it'd take a little while for our food to come. This was unnecessary, but the fact that she told was great service. Overall, Froggy's/TommyJ's is a nice little place if you want a good burger. I'll give it a 4/5 only because the fries could be better and the seating is really annoying at times. read more

First time here for dinner (I usually come here for drinks) Pretty chill place, really good service! And I do have to say the best thing in the menu was the water, jk jk I had the jalapeño burger which was pretty good, it's a little spicy though! I also tried the Cajun burger which had a really strong taste for me, but if you're a Cajun love you would love it! The waitress was very attentive and friendly! read more

Definitely the best burgers in town! Argue with my friends about the other place and then I bring them the Froggy's / Tommy's and they agree best burgers in town! Great beers even good local red wines. I have to go at least twice a month just to get my Tommy Burger fix. I love to bacon cheeseburger. read more

Best burger in town! Food is always fresh and delicious. BBQ chicken salad is a great non burger meal too .

I really enjoy this local gem! The karaoke nights (pre covid) with friends was where I could be found almost every Friday! It's not too far from campus and definitely just a short bike ride away to get an easy lunch or a dinner on the way back from class! When they did late night food while having the bar open late (ore covid) it was always how I ended my night! The chicken strips are my fave and I miss the chicken and waffle brunch so much! This is a must visit! read more

Just wanted to get a drink but the lady said you have to order food with it which doesn't make sense because you can order a drink by itself online. I did not want to order online though. Disappointed. read more

Some of the staff is competent, some are not. First couple times I got food to-go and a cocktail while I waited. Everything went smoothly how you'd expect. Last time I was here, the girl bartender looked overwhelmed even though it was like noon and not busy. Didnt want to be pushy so I just waited for my food figuring I'd have time before it was sent out. She completely ignored me for 10 mins and when her co-bartender came out, she told me to turn down my phone volume?? The audio could barely be heard 1 ft from my face but I obliged. Maybe she was just trying to help me. But then these same 2 "bartenders" immediately help and ask this group of girls that were literally just sitting down if "they'd been helped yet?" Just awful service and they were bad at being even slightly attentive. I did everything not to be rude, casual eye contact hoping they'd notice I'm sitting at their bar looking for a drink with nothing in front of me. Been at Froggy's when they were easily 5x as busy and had a better experience. 2 stars because it was like a 3-4 star experience last couple times but these particular women completely sucked read more

Was in the area watching my daughter play softball and stopped by this cute joint. Great service and awesome burgers... and nice beer selection! I'll be back. read more

Froggy's is the kind of homey sports bar/eatery you look for in every town. That it happens to be in Davis, where the average demo is made for such a place, makes it all the better. I realized after my recent visit that I had been here once quite a while back for a beer. The impression I was left with the first time was that the staff was awful friendly and accommodating, and that didn't change on my recent second visit. Depending on the time of day or season they could either be packed full or dead empty. Either way, there are usually plenty of tables for sitting and chilling or bar space for shouldering up with a buddy. Come on down and enjoy! read more

Normally, I would give a place like this one star, as I would never envision myself going here ever again even if someone offered to pay for my drinks. But hey, I will give them an extra star for having a wonderful location and being so nice to dad when he would go there to pass the time waiting for the Amtrak train, whenever he came to visit me, which meant he was helping me fix my car or something. This tiny bar in Davis was never one of my favorites. It always has the same boneheaded crowded that keeps going there, only to eventually grow bored and migrate to the now closed, Cantina Del Cabo. It was insanely difficult to be served a drink, especially when it got crowded. The food was not very tasty at all. It was too small and would get packed very fast. The jukebox sucked. And wow, that restroom was disgusting. Why did I ever go here? Maybe college was not as cool as I remembered? read more

Great food, great service! Froggy's is definitely my go-to place for burgers in Davis. The fries, with toppings or without, are delicious and the burgers are always juicy. Buns are from village bakery. I usually get either the Swiss n Shroomer or the Cali - both are great options. The best part: it's never too full here because all of the college students are drawn to the ambiance of Burgers and Brew. read more

Cheap, stiff drinks. Nice bartenders, decent music (though you do have to shout to have a conversation with anyone). Great place to start off the night. Only taking off a star for the bathroom. There's only one women's stall, so it gets dirty in there pretty quickly. I also came here for lunch once and had one of their burgers. Tasty and super filling. I should have stopped halfway through, but no..I had to eat the whole thing and roll out the door. read more

I might have gone to place like this when I was under 21, selling blood to buy Keystone Ice, and in a general alcoholic haze but that is a big fat maybe. I think Froggy's would be better served as a hot dog stand, add some misters to keep people cool, and throw some beer in an ice chest and you would have more atmosphere - and less vomit - than Froggy's. Alas this seems to be where my friends enjoy starting the night. Makes me almost long for Kips in Berkeley. The place is dingy. Most of the time, the patrons are left to fend for themselves when it comes to trying to compete for a beer covered table. Long lines at the waste infested bathrooms and the beer selection is poor. You would expect beer at a place like this to be dirt cheap and bring cosmic balance back to dive bars everywhere but it is not so. Bud Light - they only offer cheap type beer - is $3-$4 depending on the night. Enough of this dump. Next time I feel like going to Froggy's I will destroy the chairs in my house, dump beer all over my kitchen table, piss on the floor of my living room, and charge myself $4 for the beer in fridge or I could just hit my hand with a hammer. I haven't decided which of those options is less painful. read more

On one of my trips up Nor Cal I asked my UC Davis friend where a good place was to eat. He suggested Froggy's. I had been to Davis a few times but I had never been to Froggy's. I still don't understand why he hadn't told me about this place until now. The burgers were delicious and my mouth is watering right now just thinking about them. A pitcher or Blue Moon with a delicious burger. I forgot the exact name of the burger I got, but it had guac spread with blue cheese bacon and frank's red hot sauce. It was delicious and dirty. The fries were not the best I've had, which is my only real knock on the place. Next time I visit Davis I will definitely be coming back here. read more

Froggys is my absolutely my favorite burger place in Davis! The burgers here are very moist and flavorful. You have an option to specify the cook on your burger; I usually get mine medium rare. The buns are very well toasted and have a nice buttery flavor that just melts in your mouth. My favorite burger is the Caliburger! DO NOT order a salad with your burger. The "salad" is just more of the veggie ingredients from your burger... lettuce, tomato, red onions. Order fries instead. They give you a good amount and are done well and not too salty. Service is exceptional here. Waiters/waitresses are always attentive to your table and make sure you have everything you need. There are only high chair seating here as this is a bar/pub so don't come here if you absolutely need to learn your back on something. This is definitely a place you gotta try out if you pass by Davis on your way to Tahoe. read more

This place has pretty good burgers, but the service and the management specifically is pretty bad and not customer-oriented. This is a college town. Get used to Splitting checks. It's not going away anytime soon. Apparently "Tommy J doesn't like to split checks." I don't give two licks about Tommy J. Just split the dang check so I can leave. read more

Great place to hang out with your friends or watch a game! I had some really great memories in this place. I think their burgers and fries were alright. Nothing special about them, but they were well cooked perfectly and tasted very good. I am a HUGE fan of their chicken strips and fries. I love the triple sauce they give you with the chicken strips and I am always down to order them when I come here. Aside from lunch time, I've been here one too many times during bar hours. Their Red Hook was my favorite cocktail from this place. Tasty with the right amount of alcohol mixed into it! The Blowjob Shot is pretty popular here. People usually come here and order one on their birthday. I recommend coming here on your birthday and giving it a try! I had no problem with their customer service. As always, they are attentive and know how to take care of you. I made one of the best memories here. Karaoke night! I had a blast singing "I Want It That Way" by Backstreet Boys. The bar was so lively at the time and it was like everyone was your friend. Definitely great customers and great staff! read more

Came here on a Saturday night, and it had a moderate crowd in here. Nothing too crazy. Lack of seating so you're going to be standing around a lot. Good selection of drinks. Prices are lower than what you'd find or expect in the area. I always come here to start my night of drinking, and then head on down the street, following the crowd. read more
