15 Real-Life Scranton Restaurants and Bars Referenced on ‘The Office’
"The Chili’s chain has been at the forefront of several storylines on “The Office,” such as Michael taking out a client played by Tim Meadows for baby-back ribs in “The Client” and for providing the setting for the drunken Dundies awards ceremony. But when the show was being filmed, there actually wasn’t a Chili’s location in Scranton (the closest was Wilkes-Barre, which has since closed). Not to worry: a Scranton-adjacent location is slated to open in Dickson City later this year, and the company reportedly will lean into “The Office” connection when it debuts." - Missy Frederick
