The wings are the real star here crispy, saucy, and packed with flavor, they're consistently one of the best things on the menu and definitely what they're known for. It's the kind of place where you go planning to split an order and end up wishing you got more. Also love the fried pickles and pizza!! The atmosphere is classic sports bar energy plenty of TVs, a lively crowd, and a mix of regulars and new faces. It's a great spot to catch a game, meet up with friends, or just unwind after a long day. When the weather's nice, the outdoor volleyball. Service is usually friendly and fast-paced, especially considering how busy it can get. Like any popular local spot, it can get packed during peak times, so expect a little bit of a wait but it's worth it once you're settled in. read more

Went to Dickmann's on Sunday afternoon while the Bengals were playing. The atmosphere was noisy, fun and celebratory (the Bengals were winning big time!) We had spicy teriyaki and original bone-in wings, the bacon jam burger and onion straws. The burger was tasty - as were the onion straws but the star was the wings. These wings were the best we have had since moving to NKY. We had great service and the servers were friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Two Dollar Tuesday! It seems like a rare thing to have specials this good in today's economy. Now you are basically going to get pretty standard bar food but if you are looking for a cheap place to watch your favorite team it's still a good vibe.we have been here a few times and have tried the sampler platter for apps, pizza, and wings and like a said it's nothing special but pretty good bar food. We were fortunate to have the same server bother times and she was lovely remembered us and our drink order which seems crazy with how many people probably come through that place. Overall would recommend if you need an affordable place to chill out with your friends and catch a game. read more

Highly disappointed. Wanted to try their wings and smash burger but no kids allowed even accompanied by adults.

No joke, this is the absolute worst public building I have ever stepped into. It's so popular to its own downfall. We had a table and didn't even order - because everyone wanted to leave! It so crowded, you can't walk. It's so crowded, they don't think a beer menu at a sports bar is nessisary. Regardless, none of my party wanted to be here. It was so loud that people either yelled bloody murder or spoke into each others ear. No, I'm not ordering your crappy beer or food at top dollar... Couldn't even provide a seat. Don't go here. read more

Best pizza!! And the fried pickles are to die for! And the service is fabulous! One of my favorite places to go!! read more

Came on a Tuesday night . There are no signs saying to seat yourself or wait . Got a lot of nasty looks for just standing there . Once we were seated our waitress was extremely rude, as we didn't know you had to order at the kitchen window. We got wings and burgers, onion straws, and fried pickles . The wings were essentially rocks , you could bounce them off the table . The frying oil needed changed and to not be burnt . The pickles were the same way . Burger was mediocre but the garlic aioli was really good. The bar tenders were very friendly as we quit asking our waitress due to her attitude, and we cashed out our drinks there. If you are looking for a place to drink beer and watch a game this is good place for just about only that . read more

Love the staff and sports vibe for over a decade but they have really stepped up their food game! read more

Dickmann's - Smash burger with bacon jam and onion straws - Sports Bars Near Me - Fort Wright, Kentucky

Great food and fun with the family best place to watch the game and I heard they have volleyball tournaments! I really need to make a team next year read more

Food: yikes, the wings were served to our party randomly at different times. The wings were cold for everyone Blah never again read more

Came in there after a funeral today with a big group of all service industry people from the banks area downtown. very nice staff and super quick service :) the only thing that threw us all off was that one girl had her under 1 yr old baby in his carrier and they said no kids which coming from a service industry worker is odd considering they serve food . I understand if they don't want children running around but a baby in his carrier not making a peep is kind of odd read more

The Smashburgers are a game changer. Made perfectly. Great staff, quick service, great atmosphere. Best NKY sports bar, of course. We've always hung here, but thanks for elevating the burgers! We're bringing the crew! read more

I came to watch a Cinci soccer game with my dad and stepmom... I ordered the spicy teriyaki boneless wings and potato skins. I am a huge foodie and I can honestly say these were the best boneless wings I've ever had - melt in your mouth tender! read more

Dickmann's - Spicy teriyaki boneless wings and potato skins. - Sports Bars Near Me - Fort Wright, Kentucky

Great place to come for sporting events! They have TONS of TV's lining the walls! Fantastic wings, honey jalapeño is my favorite! Delcious pizza and killer apps! They host sand volleyball teams on the weekends and during the week it's open for people to play on the court! Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, some is even covered if it's raining. A few things some people may not like, but it's how Dickman's rolls; plastic cups, you have to walk up to the window to order food and go get the food when your name is called, it's rather loud. ALTHOUGH, they offer buckets and beer by the can so you don't have to get their cups, you don't have to tip a server for food so you're saving some money, and it's a bar it's gonna be loud. So basically it's a great time! I love Dickman's but if you're looking for somewhere to be served and complain about the minimal work you need to do to get your food , go somewhere else, we will enjoy it for you! read more

Elite every time. Best teriyaki wings out there, and the best spot to host in-person fantasy football drafts.

Great wings and beer selection. Staff is friendly and the bar has many TVs. I think the walk up and pay for food, but getting separate table service for drinks is strange, but doesn't ruin the experience. read more

Wings are perfection! Pizzas are pretty good as well. They have LOTS of options to pick from!

Great spot to watch sports. Unfortunately there is a waitress there that doesn't seem to understand that her customers are there to have a good time. She will greet you like her family but then rip the rug out from under you and make you think she just never meant what she said from the beginning. In my opinion that is not good business. I hope the owner realizes soon that it is important to make sure his employees respect their customers from the beginning to the end. read more

I meet with my coworkers here for happy hour. It's conveniently located to all of us, and want to try a new place. I was greeted by Jaime, she's the bartender and the waitress. She seemed very accommodating and very nice. I really don't know what to expect because it's my first time here, I guess one has to go to the bar and order your drink. I did not do that, I sat on a table and waited for someone to come get my order which Jaime came to ask what I want. I'm looking for a drink menu, and she said they don't have that. Anyway, I choose to have yeungling which they have on draft, and for a pint it's only $2.50. read more

Dickmans js the place to be if you want great service and beer that is priced right. All the girls that work there are friendly and welcoming: I no longer go anywhere else. read more

We stopped in for the UK game. This place really draws the KY crowd. The food is typical bar food, pretty good. The drinks were fast even in a big crowd. Many thanks to our server, Amanda. She was quick and very attentive. We would definitely recommend a stop here, especially during the games. Be early to get a seat! read more

IDK, prob the best wings around... yeah, they are. Service is unpredictable but IDGAF bc I love the wings that much. Just a bunch of dudes back there making wing magic. But for real, Ann's below me is right. Get a sign lol. I always miss it. Yesterday I missed it TWICE. read more

The wings are my favorite, but way to expensive now and not worth it. 10 for $15 is the latest price. Sorry, have found a new wing place.

The atmosphere is on point with socially distanced tables and lots of TVs. The TV stations were not synced so it was difficult watching one TV, hearing the crowd cheer and 10 seconds later having our team score. That said the appetizers were amazing. Beer cheese and potato skins. The burger however was a disappointment, burnt, dried up and served with less fries than Chick Fil A small size. Overall not bad. read more

Tbh...on our way back from baseball tourney. No kids allowed. We didn't eat. I don't understand.

It's a sports bar...it's not fancy but by golly you will have a great time! My friends and I have been going to Dickmann's for years because its so casual and they honestly serve some of the best bar food you will find! Dickmann's is known for their outdoor sand volleyball court so don't be surprised that A. the bar is just plain concrete and B. you will feel sand on the ground or the seats sometimes. But this just shows you how casual this place is. They have a big main bar and the bartenders are always really attentive, even the new ones. They have a great tap selection, can selection, and liquor selection. They serve in plastic cups...not a huge deal to me but just an fyi. The myth on the plastic cups is that a loooonnng time ago they switched to plastic cups to deter bar fights lol. I've been there so many times over the years that I have never seen a fight there so its just a funny myth that may or may not be true! Now the food....honestly....the chicken bacon ranch pizza is to die for. I've told my husband before that I would marry this pizza if I was allowed too lol. All their pizzas are freshly made in house and you can tell. My favorite is the chicken ranch one and it is just the right mix of all the ingredients without it being too much! The prices are within $7-$13 for their small or large pizza. They have different topping options also. Their wings are sauced just right and crispy. My friends love their waffle cheese fries with bacon too. Honestly, my friends and I don't drink that much anymore but we still keep going back to read more

Awesome service! chicken wings, pretzels and fried pickles were awesome! Beer was cold!

A darn nice sports bar. I liked this place. not too hard to get to, plenty of parking, good atmosphere , prices are comparable to other sports bars, varied seating options, good selection of food & drinks and trivia. it does get a little crowded & loud on game day but as long as my team is winning, i don't mind as much. read more

Great wings but the service wasn't that great. For a first time customer you have to walk over to the service area to order. Took us 15 minutes to figure that out. read more

Awesome wait staff and barkkeeps. Place is jammed packed but service is awesome! Burgers are huge and really good. If you're looking for a place to hang out and watch sports this place is where you need to be! read more

I went to Dickman's recently for a friends birthday party and will never go back unless I have very good reason too. Since Northern Kentucky is now the smokers section of Cincinnati, I should have remembered I'd be in for a smokey night, but my goodness, I think I lost five years off my life here. It was terrible. A thick haze of smoke was ever present and the rowdy and loud patrons were pushy and inconsiderate. These things must only bother some, for the bar was absolutely packed and seating was scarce. Packed with T.V.'s all playing sports, I wondered who could even hear them over the noise? I spent the night drinking beer out of cans, my only amusement being a game I play trying to get my boyfriend drunk off shots before he realizes that's what I'm doing. Overall, a loud, smokey, sports bar, fine for some, hell for others. read more

Dickmann's does't have a lot going for it, aside from all of the TVs. If you need somewhere to grab a beer and watch sports, it may work for you. But you'll need to be able to block out all of the smoke and bar fights. Seriously, there's a rumble here every other time I go. Can't blame the bar for it, but the patrons. It seems like this is where douchebags and cowboys go to mingle. The smoke is to be expected at any bar in Kentucky, but it seems especially thick here at Dickmann's. But the worst thing about Dickmann's is that they kick you out way too early. Bar time is always sped up a bit, but they kick you out at about 1:30, bar time, which is really around 1:15. Do they not want your money? I don't understand their thought process, but it doesn't matter too much because to stay at Dickmann's that late is already testing the limits of your humanity. I'd go elsewhere (and I do). read more

We love Dickman's! Being newer to the area it's really hard to find somewhere in Cincy or NKY that sells great wings and is smoke free. These definitely are the best wings in the area. The wings are aren't soft and mushy, but more well done the way Fricker's and Rooster's are (my fav wing spots up north). They also sell a good selection of craft beer. And you can get buckets of local canned craft beers instead of the usually bud light. read more

I ordered a vodka soda and could not taste ANY ALCOHOL, I was basically drinking water. I went up to say something and the bartender "topped off" my drink and my boyfriends, only to get charged for 2 double shots, which is the equivalent of ONE shot. Absolutely ridiculous and will NOT BE BACK. The bartender simply stated "well I made the shots and they were in there, so..." excuse me? Is that how you talk to customers? read more

Some of, if not the best wings in nky. Good apps, and surprisingly good pizza too! A solid spot to watch a reds or bengals game, with fair beer prices. read more

I always wondered what the big red barn visible from 275 was until I finally got the chance to come here. Food was fine. You put in your order and pick it up at a counter. It's cool that you can play skee-ball, cornhole, and volleyball here, but honestly I wouldn't go out of my way to come here to do any of them. They do get points for being nonsmoking. Probably your best option in the Ft Wright/Independence area if you don't feel like going to Bdubs. read more

A group of my friends and I met at Dickmann's this week as we attempt to schedule a gathering once a month. This is the perfect place to just relax, have some drinks and eat some food. Buckets of bud light (cans) were $10. The food is just typical bar food. I especially like their personal pizzas, but my friends ordered wings and they looked good as well. The waitress was very personable and took care of the table very well throughout our visit. I would HIGHLY recommend this place if you are looking for a place to watch a sporting event ... TVs everywhere. BTW - Dickmann's hosts one of the best summer (sand) volleyball leagues there are. read more

Not sure why this place has a three star avg? If you enjoy the sports bar atmosphere, it doesn't get much better than Dickmans. Drink prices are great, food is good (especially their wings), and the staff is prompt while being friendly. They have huge TVs and numerous smaller ones all over the place, so you're guaranteed to see your team! This place is certainly worth visiting. read more

We love this place. Good wings and beer, and you can get out the door without spending all of your money. Waitresses are very attentive. It can get a little loud at times, but that's to be expected at a sports bar. read more

Food is surprisingly good and service has always been great. Solid selection of beers at a really reasonable price.
