    Been here a few times. It's my favorite place. My wife always orders a tropical long island. And we always get wings to go with sweet chili sauce. Always a friendly place good for kids, elderly, young it doesn't matter.

    Loved the Frickers Chicken Salad. Lots of cheese and ask for more buffalo sauce on side because the chicken wasn't coated. No problem, yummy salad and it was bomb! Cons: Red Lighting in bar area makes it very hard to read the menu and sign a receipt. Very blurred situation. The noise from children the arcade was extreme and over powered conversations with the person next to me. That was unexpected. I thought you go to Dave and Busters for that kind of noise.

    Good food in a great atmosphere! Easy access just off Clinton St and plenty of parking available. The restaurant is deceptively large inside. Nice layout with large bar, numerous high tops, and booths that are sectioned off. And TVs galore! If you're looking to watch the big game, you've got the right place! Food is very good. We had a large group and our food arrived all at once and was hot and delicious! Prices are reasonable, and they have daily specials posted throughout the restaurant. Perfect spot to take the team after a game!

    Definitely won’t be back here again! Defiance has way better options Jerseys , Buffalo Wild Wings. Service very slow. They made us feel like we were an inconvenience to them 😂

    Excellent place to watch a ball game….even in a house divided! The food is great and we usually have the greatest waitstaff and bartender. This place is a staple for us!

    I haven’t never had a bad experience here until tonight First off I’m a waitress and I’ve bartended Food was good as usual that was not the problem so thank you to the cooks Service was not very nice after I complained that the Whitney cooler that I ordered tasted like tea lemon tea I mentioned it didn’t taste right and was told that I was wrong and there was no way it tasted like tea… I asked the manager about it stating that it looked kind of funny but it was the taste that got me it was tea my husband also said it was a tea manager told me they don’t have any of that in the building when I showed her the twisted tea sign? I was informed that the bartender had been there for 9 years and I was wrong about how it tastes I didn’t drink it I left it I paid for it and I tipped after she rushed me and my husband and 2 kids out the door constantly asking if I was ready to pay…. I don’t like to complain when I go places but I don’t like being treated like im stupid specially since I work in restaurants also….. I did my best to stay calm and not get rude…

    Went here on Tuesday evening. The menu says nothing about Jalapenos on the chicken dip that my gf ordered and was unable to eat because of her stomach issues. The macaroni and cheese has no flavor and a really bad after taste. My Porterhouse was well done on one end and rare on the other.. to top it all off my cousin found a roll that looked like a petri dish of mold making us disgusted and unable to finish our food. But hey, the waitress took $9 off our bill. $63 plus tip down the drain in my opinion. Will never be returning to this location and advise you to do the same.

    Great place to watch sports. Many games displayed with plenty of screens for each. I also enjoyed the good. I didn’t have trouble finding something to eat. Well over a dozen beers on tap. Staff very friendly and good service.

    I'm pretty sure the server wanted to bang my buddy Pete, which is always a plus, cause he don't get a lot of tail.

  • 4/5 James Fox P. 1 year ago on Google
    Not my favorite atmosphere, the wait staff was curt, but friendly enough. But I really like the food. I will come back from the chicken wraps again and again.

  • 4/5 John N. 1 year ago on Google
    Good food at a decent enough value . Service depends on waitress, kitchen speed ok on food. Lots of TV's. It IS a bar and can be very loud depending on time or day. They do have separate, quiet room off to side for families. Great move there! Very easy online ordering, but no app. Must be done thru web browser.

    Generally really enjoy other frickers, maybe it was just this location. Place was super dark for lunch time. Battered fish were no more then frozen fish sticks. Good beer selection though. Decent prices.

  • 5/5 Becca C. 1 year ago on Google
    Was a great night at Fricker's the turkey bacon wrap was generous portion, fresh, and perfect tasting. Our waitress was very good she served 13 ppl like a pro congratulations on a jib well done .

    Went in on Wednesday wing deal day, spent $76. Didn't hate my food but my deep fried food was way too done or the oil was in need of changing, either way I wasn't happy with the price to quality ratio, but my server was the absolute best! So nice, very attentive

  • 5/5 Joe S. 1 year ago on Google
    Family had a great experience. Was not expecting free meals for the kids. A nice surprise. Food was good. Think Buffalo wild wings with better quality and value. Our server Jennaya was outstanding!!!

  • 2/5 Colleen S. 11 months ago on Google
    Typical sports bar. TVs everywhere. Like crazy. The boneless wings on Tuesday special. Just don't. Not sure where that chicken comes from. Everything was hot but not a golden crisp doneness. Chicken was weird.

  • 1/5 Brian W. 1 year ago on Google
    Very poor location, Defiance, Ohio, Frikers. Kitchen not managed, Nick Zimmerman absent & staff less than attentive to customers. Food wrong, long wait, disrespectful. Go elsewhere.. Never again. 1/2 star, BW

  • 2/5 Joseph T. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was good once it finally arrived, several missing items, including the kids meal which was fun to deal with when you have a hungry child in your group. Not sure where the disconnect was, but definitely not enjoyable for the first time being there.

  • 3/5 Jennifer O. 1 year ago on Google
    It was mine and my husband's first time eating there, and we really weren't impressed. He had a burger. It didn't come with a side. My meal came with 2 sliders, boneless chicken pieces and beer battered fries. The bourbon sauce wasn't very good and the burgers for my sliders were raw and the buns were burnt. There was only 1 waitress, so we didn't complain.

  • 1/5 Tonya P. 1 year ago on Google
    Giving this establishment 1 star is being generous! I've walked out of this place 2 times due to no server coming to our table. Mind you it was after waiting over a half hour for 1 to show up. It would be somewhat understandable if they were busy but unfortunately it's jst a bad case of untrained service. When I spoke with the manager the last time she said it was because they were short staffed. That doesn't explain why someone who walked in 25 min after us had a server at their rable rt away.

  • 5/5 Justin R. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s open. That’s it. It’s open when everything else is closed. You might get the drink you ordered; you might not. 🤷🏼‍♂️ But hey, what the hell. Just do it. You’ll be moderately satisfied. And that works for your marriage so It’ll work for dinner.

    Food: the food was cold Service: the service was not good. We sat at our table for 10 minutes before a waitress came to our table. Mid way we needed a refill, the waitress brought food to a table next to us, turns and looks at our table and walked away. When we were done eating we waited close to a half hour and still no sign of our waitress. We literally had to go find someone to get us boxes and our check. Atmosphere: very dark and extremely loud. Was not very clean, the tables were very sticky.

    To have never of been to a Fricker's, I was very pleased. Sporty warm atmosphere with great people working there. The alcoholic choices are prestine. Grab the family and/or the friends and come here. Food was cooked well!

  • 3/5 Mike J. 1 year ago on Google
    The food wasn't terrible, I got nachos, my wife got a burger. The floor was super sticky and the wait for our food was 23 minutes. People who got there well after us received their food at almost the same time. Was going to order dessert but didn't see the waitress until she delivered the check after she brought our food. No thanks

  • 4/5 Ryan M. 1 year ago on Google
    I've ate here a couple of times for lunch....pretty good place all a round. Eating lunch there, is nice because there's hardly anyone there. Quick service.....seems like pretty good servers. Only reason for 4 stars, I had two servers talking loudly back and forth about their schedules unfortunately I was sitting in the middle of them. But pretty good place.

    Just left Frickers in Defiance from a wedding rehearsal dinner, food was great and our server Lilith was perfect! GREAT JOB Frickers

  • 3/5 David W. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was decent, but our server was very odd. Asked us how our food was every 3 minutes. Yes, my wings are (and continue to be) pretty good.

  • 1/5 Kyle C. 1 year ago on Google
    Took an hour to get food for a table of 4 and only a hand full of tables seated not busy by any means. Food was good but took forever to get, manager come out said they was short staffed had 2 people in kitchen, sorry if 2 people in kitchen can not keep up something is wrong would hate to see wait of all tables were full.

  • 5/5 Dianna G. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was excellent. I ordered a blt. Had a lot of crispy bacon. Fries were fresh n hot even though they had a crowd. Service was done timely n food was brought out the same way.

  • 3/5 Shannon M. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was pretty good. Cleanliness needed worked on. Was there around 5pm, not too busy and sat at the table we deemed least dirty. Waitress wiped half the table for us. Had to washout hands after handling the menus

  • 5/5 Melissa D. 2 years ago on Google
    We went around 4:30 on a Saturday thinking we'd beat the crowd...nope! We were told it would be a 20-25 minute wait. However, it was only maybe 10 minutes. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. Our food was great and we left full and happy from my bday dinner!
