About Fricker's

Fricker's offers a mixed experience for diners. While the friendly staff and excellent food stand out positively, the slow service due to low employee numbers can be frustrating. The lack of a hostess is noticeable, but the waitresses and shift managers excel in a fast-paced environment. The restaurant is a good spot for sports fans with multiple big screens, but the overall ambiance is average with reasonable prices. Guests often enjoy breaded wings, which are comparable to Hooters, although they note that extra bleu cheese can be overpriced. The food is generally great, but some find the space standard for a beer bar and feel the food can be boring—steak might be too chewy, and fried chicken has been disappointing for some. Waiting times for food can be long, but the staff remains friendly and helpful. The restaurant also features a cool arcade-like area in the back, where guests can bring quarters. Despite some hit and miss experiences, it remains a popular choice for locals looking to enjoy a casual meal while catching a game. Recent visitors praised the food and service, highlighting servers like Alexa and Savannah for their outstanding and sweet service. Erik, the manager, was appreciated for going above and beyond to resolve issues, making the first-time dining experience memorable. Overall, while wait times can be long, the friendly staff and enjoyable atmosphere make Fricker’s a favorite for casual dining and sports viewing.

A place a working person can't even enjoy a drink.

Allow hatred being spewed at patrons. Staff completely complacent to racism and harassment.

0/10.

They allow hate and racist comments to be spewed at patrons. 0/10. Would not recommend.

Sat down right away but still waited 2 hours for our food watching all other tables come and go. Was promised it "was the next one up" a couple times. It wasn't. lol We took it to go and ate in the car to try to make the Komets game in ft. Wayne. Missed puck drop and a pretty good chunk of 1st pd. If we would have been told there was that kind of wait, we would have chosen somewhere else. So frustrating!
