Frisch's Big Boy is a regional Big Boy restaurant chain headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Founded in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1939 by David Frisch, the chain became an early Bob Wian Big Boy licensee in the 1940s and in 2001 acquired perpetual rights to the Big Boy trademark in Indiana, Kentucky, most of Ohio, and parts of Tennessee independent of Big Boy Restaurant Group. As of March 2025, the chain operates 31 locations across Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. Excluding the original Bob's Big Boy in California, Frisch's is the longest-operating regional Big Boy franchisee. Family ownership passed from founder David Frisch to his son-in-law Jack C. Maier and grandson Craig F. Maier until 2015, when the company was sold to Atlanta-based private equity fund NRD Capital. The same year, NRD entered a sale-leaseback agreement covering 74 of the chain's 121 owned locations; in 2024, Frisch's was unable to meet rising lease payments and was evicted from most of those stores, shrinking from 95 to 31 locations within four months. In November 2024, a group of senior managers acquired the remaining locations and branding rights from NRD.
