Wanted a good local place to eat, and Yelp guided us here. It's tucked away in an industrial park, but Flying Dog is just down the street, so definitely a good place to go for a post-tour meal. The bartender was very friendly and happily let us sample the Flying Dog seasonal they had on tap. Food was great: the... More

I can always find something I like at Frisco's. The sandwiches are a LITTLE pricey, but are well made and taste great. The fresh-baked cookies area also good and that you can refill your beverage and drink until you explode is a great thing too. Next door is a wine and beer shop that you can find some incredible deals... More

Off the beaten path in Frederick Md. but worth the trip. Sandwishes, sides and delivery make this a great place to get a quick lunch, order out or just grap a sandwich. The exploding potatoes are wnoderful. Our family gets them every yeaar for the Christmas holidays. More

This place is a local hotspot, hidden in the warehouse district. Food is portioned well and incredible smashed potatoes! Downstairs can fill up, if so, just head upstairs and enjoy the great food! More

I eat there several times-per-month and am always pleased with the interesting (in a good sense) food. The menu is nothing like most fast-food places with unusual sandwiches, salads, and soups. While you order at the counter (offers of samples of smashed potatoes and soups should be accepted -- while not everything is to everyone's taste, it is always well-prepared... More

Friscos has delicious, fresh sandwiches, salads and freshly baked cookies. They have an extensive kids menu which is great because they offer it for only $3.25 which includes a juice box & a cookie. Where else can you get a kids meal that cheap? Their exploded mashed potatoes are delicious. Worth a try as a side item with your fresh... More

Friscos is hidden in a business park and has odd hours because of it, so call before you come if you're not sure they're open. Their food is very good and they specialize in sandwiches which they design themselves. My kids are not big sandwich eaters, so they don't enjoy Frisco's, but they do love the ice cream. They also...

First of all, keep the reviews in check. If you are looking for fine dining or exceptional, organic, exquisite, turn your nose up food, you need not spend your time here. If however, you are looking for a casual, relaxed, atmosphere beyond a fast food joint where you can get a great sandwich with a beer, no tipping necessary, then... More
