One of my coworkers recommended Fat Boy’s as we were all craving burgers. All four of us ordered burgers and a variety of sides. I got the Fat Boy Burger with a side of fried mushrooms. It was perfection! The portion sizes are quite large and everything was cooked very well. Even ordering online was easy and the food was great even not being “fresh” as we carried out rather than dined in. Needless to say I was quite useless the rest of the afternoon! Totally worth it!
This place will be missed. I will no longer be able to walk down the road to visit. This is a cute little brunch diner that always gives me a food coma afterwards. The pancakes are a classic, however, recently I tried their burger with Egg and Bacon....wow! Might not look as modern and up to date, but the chef and staff are prompt and kind. If you enjoy people watching as much as I do, sit at the booths and creep away.
Wanted to try this place for 30 years. Finally stopped and got The Fat Boy(classic 1/3 lb olive burger with cheese). The handmade onion rings are the best I have ever had. Midrange prices for quality food. I will be back for more.
Love this place for breakfast. Great selection, good food, and good service.Won't be back for lunch. Food not great, but was hot. Service was not good (and we were there during off time).
Decent little meal. Probably a buck or two more than it should have been compared to relative places and what you get. Handful of fries and a burger that easily fits in the palm of your hand. But the taste was good, food came out at a decent pace. Service was attentive. In and out in under 30 minutes at lunch time seemed like an alright turnaround too.
Been a family favorite for many many many years (several decades, actually). Now is my son's favorite spot to eat a burger. So happy to see this place still standing after so much time.
Been coming here for years. Absolutely loved this place until today. Was told they don’t do add ons, so I no longer can get cheese on my hash browns. Toast gets burnt a lot as well. Heartbreaking I will no longer be a regular.Edit: increased to 3 stars after owner response. I’ll give another chance.
The place looks like a dive however you will be making a big mistake if you do not go inside and try those awesome hamburgers! The hamburgers are so good they should cost easily twice what they're charging for them I strongly recommend you stop by this place if you're in town. The mushroom swiss burger is heavenly. Will repeat.
My uncle lived a block away from Fat Boy's when it opened in 1952, he could see it from his backyard and walked over. He started taking me in the mid-60's and it became a destination for me whenever I visited him throughout the seventies. He died in 1998 and that was the last time I was there. Recently found myself back in GR for another funeral (about the only reason I go back now), and dropped back in. It has upgraded from the greasy bomb I recall but it was just as good as ever. I'm running out of elderly relatives, so may have to find another reason to visit.
I miss the people that owned fat boy before this new owner because the food was better and they were much more generous with the portions. For example a order of ?fried mushrooms came in a basket and now they come in a small bag and the prices now are outrageous. For 1 meal at fat boy I could buy 3 meals at wendy's!!! It's a cryen shame ☹?
