Ready for a weekend adventure with the boys but don’t know where to go? Say no more. We’ve got you covered with the ultimate guide to a guys’ trip in Frisco. So, call up your buddies and tell them to pack a bag. It’s time for great food, drinks, and, of course, sports.
The Four Food Groups – Pizza, Burgers, BBQ, and Steak
Frisco is home to some of the best restaurants in Texas, and to help your culinary decisions a little easier, here’s a quick look at some of our favorites:
When baking a great pizza, you have to start with the dough. And at Pie Tap, the dough is so legendary that it’s even got a name - Romo. Go with a classic like pepperoni, or be a little adventurous and order the Prosciutto.
With its limited menu, Sky Rocket doesn’t mess around with trying to satisfy the masses. Their goal is to provide the purest and most perfect burger experience possible. The only real question is… do you want a single, double, or triple?
Frequently hailed as one of the best barbecue joints in Texas, Hutchins BBQ will have you crying with joy with each sweet and savory bite. But don’t you dare go without ordering a Texas Twinkie –a big ol’ jalapeno stuffed with brisket and cream cheese and wrapped in premium thick-cut bacon.
Family-owned and uniquely set in a beautiful, Victorian-style home, Randy’s steaks are like nothing you’ve ever tasted. From the filet to the bone-in rib eye, each steak is hand-cut personally by owner Randy Burks, who shares his culinary passion with every guest.
No Sports, No Glory!
Does it even count as a guy’s trip if no sports are involved? Probably not. But don’t worry. We’ve got you covered. As the home of the World Headquarters of the Dallas Cowboys, FC Dallas, Frisco RoughRiders, and Texas Legends, it’s no wonder Frisco is known as Sports City USA.
It’s an experience no self-respecting Dallas Cowboys fan should be without. The Star is the 91-acre headquarters of America’s Team. Re-enact your favorite plays from Cowboys history on the Tostitos Championship Plaza, pay tribute to Cowboys legends on the Ring of Honor Walk, and take a tour to see behind the scenes of the War Room, Ford Center, and Super Bowl memorabilia.
Each February marks the beginning of what many sports fans around the world call the most beautiful game. But you don’t have to travel halfway around the world to see the best soccer the world has to offer. You can watch every goal, score, and slide as FC Dallas takes the pitch at Toyota Stadium in Frisco.
A Double-A affiliate of the World Series Champion Texas Rangers, the Frisco RoughRiders have been crushing balls in Frisco since 2003. Catch all the action from the seats, the lawn, or the Lazy River – a 174-foot-long water feature that lets you relax in the calm, cool waters while watching future MLB stars earn their way to the big show.
Ready to see where future NBA ballers are made? The Texas Legends are an NBA developmental team affiliated with the Dallas Mavericks. Reserve your tickets and watch mortal men aspire to become legends with every alley-oop, fadeaway 3, and swish.
All Fun and Games
You didn’t think you would spend all weekend being a spectator, did you? Because that’s not how we roll here in Frisco. Drink some water and get stretching because your weekend is about to get active.
Think you could go hole-for-hole with the greats like Jack, Arnold, Tiger, or Rory? Time to put up or shut up and take your shot at one of Omni PGA Frisco’s 18-hole championship courses – Fields Ranch East or Fields Ranch West. For less serious and carefree golf, book a tee time at The Swing, a lighted 10-hole, par-3 course.
Take a deep breath, exhale slowly, and gently pull the trigger on booking some range time at the Frisco Gun Club, a luxury gun range. With 25-yard pistol and 100-yard rifle lanes available, test your shooting skills with your buddies for bragging rights. And for something a little more exciting, ask about shooting an HK MP5 on full auto!
It’s time to throw down with a little hatchet-throwing with the boys. Test your accuracy, keep score, or play S.T.U.M.P to determine the best lumberjack. Just watch your toes because ambulance rides aren’t free.
Zero Latency
Ever wonder which of your buddies you’d want with you during a zombie apocalypse? Now’s your chance to find out. At Zero Latency, immerse yourself in a free-roam VR arena the size of a tennis court and work together as a team to save yourselves or explore new worlds. It’s laser tag on an unbelievably epic scale.
Quench Your Thirst
Between catching a game or a round of golf, you’ve probably worked up quite the thirst. It's time to kick back, unwind, and spend a little quality time with your buddies at some of the best bars in Frisco.
The Monarch Stag Whiskey & Cigar Lounge
What more do you need than good music, delicious food, and Frisco's finest spirits and cigars? With over 200 whiskey and 100 scotch selections, they have absolutely anything you could want. But if you’re unsure what to order, simplify things and sample a variety with a bourbon or scotch flight.
With live music and unique crafty cocktails, Rare Books Bar has more plot twists than the books that like their walls. Want to try something truly unique? Order the Black Manhattan or the Perfect Breast.
The Parlour at Bottled in Bond
A full-service cocktail lounge, The Parlour is an intimate space to reconnect with your friends over handmade cocktails. Just be sure to check the dress code. The Parlour is an elevated establishment, so go back to your hotel and get cleaned up before you head over for a delicious beverage.
