No frickin’ joke, but Dayton loves this locally grown sports bar chain.
The fine people of Dayton have spoken and declared Fricker’s the Best Place to Watch the Game in Dayton.com’s Best of 2018 poll.
Fricker’s got its start in Dayton and has grown to more than two dozen locations across Ohio, Indiana and Michigan with plenty of TVs, beer and its famous Frickin’ Chicken Wings or bite-sized Frickin’ Chicken Chunks that come coated in one of 15 signature sauces. Only the truly brave go for the Fricken X-Scream.
The first Fricker’s opened in 1985 in West Carrollton. This sports bar chain is family friendly, too, with a kids menu, kids deals and affordable prices and video/arcade games.
