Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria is the name of several fictional restaurants appearing in the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise.

Freddy's is a family restaurant established in 1983 shortly after the closure of Fredbear's Family Diner, reminiscent of ShowBiz Pizza Place and Chuck E. Cheese's, in that Freddy Fazbear's Pizza provides entertainment via singing animatronic mascots.

The primary mascot and figurehead of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is Freddy Fazbear himself, accompanied by his bandmates, consisting of Bonnie and Chica, all of whom are on the Show Stage, and a secondary character named Foxy, who remains decommissioned behind his curtain in Pirates' Cove.

During the night, Freddy's is haunted by the animatronic mascots who perform on stage as a result of several incidents involving children being kidnapped and murdered by the company's co-founder, William Afton.

Backstory
According to Phone Guy in Five Nights at Freddy's 2, the original restaurant was named "Fredbear's Family Diner," presumably a local family restaurant, before being bought and re-enfranchised as "Freddy Fazbear's Pizza." By the time the events of the second game occurred, the original restaurant and owner have been gone for years.

According to several altered posters in the first game, an incident occurred when a man, dressed in an animatronic (thought to be Spring Bonnie's) suit, lured two and eventually five kids in total into the back of the Pizzeria and murdered them. The suspect was eventually caught, but in the end, neither the children nor their bodies were ever found.

Five Nights at Freddy’s
In the first game, the restaurant is actually set to be shut down later in the year; complaints to the Health Department about blood and mucus leaking from the suits, as well as a horrid odor, are allegedly the cause. Furthermore, business had been bad, and the management could not find a buyer for the pizzeria since no one cared to be associated with the name, giving them no other choice but to close the place down. Due to the incidents, the restaurant had been unable to earn a substantial amount of revenue. This resulted in the implementation of a power budget at night. It is also for these reasons that the establishment was forced to close down at the end of the year.

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2
While the second game takes place in a different, bigger Freddy Fazbear's Pizza restaurant, the pizzeria from the first game also sets in a small end-of-night series of dream cutscenes.

Five Nights at Freddy’s 3
While the events of Five Nights at Freddy's 3 is the first in the series to not take place in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, the new setting, Fazbear's Fright, is designed to be a homage to the company and the mysterious events that took place there, sporting many vintage decorations from the previous restaurants. The establishment from the first game, however, is referenced in the form of the end-of-night minigames that are played between each night which hint at the restaurant's troubled past.

During the minigames, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is shown in a state of intense decay and disrepair. Rats are seen scurrying across the floor, the ceiling is leaking, and oil stains and other assorted garbage is strewn about. It is revealed on the map and through Phone Guy's recordings that there is a secret safe room for employees that doesn't appear on the security map or cameras, is inaccessible to customers, and is completely invisible to any of the animatronics, as shown by the error caused by trying to enter it during the minigame. However, due to budget restrictions, the safe rooms in all locations were locked up and sealed over with a false wall.

The minigames suggest that this safe room was where The Missing Children Incident took place. They also imply that the safe room was the final resting place of William Afton, after bleeding to death in the Spring Bonnie animatronic-costume hybrid while trying to escape the vengeful spirits of the children. As nothing was removed from the safe rooms before the false wall was built, it is very likely that his corpse lay there until it was found by the employees at Fazbear's Fright.

Five Nights at Freddy’s: Sister Location
While Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is never shown in Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location, it is revealed that the closing of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has lead to the opening of Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental mentioned by the HandUnit. Currently, there have been two known closings of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza: the first from Five Nights at Freddy's, and the second from Five Nights at Freddy's 2.

Five Nights at Freddy’s VR: Help Wanted
The original version of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza returns as a digital recreation with in The Freddy Fazbear Virtual Experience. The player can see it within all of the FNAF 1 levels, and (presumably) all of the Parts and Service levels. All of the known rooms from the first game can be seen, including the Kitchen.
