What a great find. I needed to get something to eat after I landed in my room and right across the parking lot. Was this barbecue place. It came highly recommended, so I had to go over and check it out Walked in and was immediately greeted and taken to my table, I was only there for a brief moment before Ashley showed up to take my drink order. I like that prompt, on point and willingness to serve the customer. I ordered an iced tea with no lemon and checked out the menu. They have plenty of great options since it was wing day. I figured I'd better check it out. When Ashley came back with my ST I asked her what was up with wings and they were $0.99 each on Tuesday and Wednesday so I had to do it. They come smoked and fried which was absolutely wonderful and they come with a house dry rub which was off the charts. I ordered a house salad which was pretty big for the price. That and the wings made for a great meal. So I took that down in record time. I have to brag on my server. Ashley was absolutely great. She was on point all through the meal, she was not overbearing, she was attentive, friendly, made great suggestions, and was just overall a pleasure to have as a server. It really makes a difference when the person waiting tables knows what they're doing. And she was on point. I hope that management reads this and gives her a raise, because she was the gold standard for me. Having been a server for as many years as I have I can see it. So management if you're reading this that girl deserves a raise. And she should be the one training other waitresses how to be. Bottom line?l The experiences was really good, the food was amazing. The service was top notch and I don't have a bad thing to say about this place at all. If you are ever in this area you need to go back there and get yourself something on wing day which is Tuesday and Wednesday and be sure to ask for Ashley. You will not regret it. read more

This is a true 3.5 stars. We went for a very late lunch on Sunday and sat at the bar. Some areas are really nicely decorated and others are a little bland. The bartender was nice but a little slow and there were only 4 people at the bar. My husband I shared a sandwich, green beans, and chips. All of the items were really good...we loved the bbq sauce! read more

We ordered Togo. We got the chicken wings with a side of buffalo sauce and the bbq chicken sandwich. The pretzel bun was a little chewy, but it had good flavor. The wings were really good. They don't come tossed. Only a dipping sauce on the side. If we revisit before we leave, we would probably ask if they could toss them. read more

Food was really good! Service was good too! Definitely worth the trip! Broccoli Alfredo was the best I ever had!

My friends and I decided to make a reservation at Fat Eddy's for her 21 birthday dinner. Our server was very kind, and our food was phenomenal. We were served at a table for 7. They were on top of everything. I forgot to take a picture of my fried pickle chips but they were great! (I am a fried pickle enthusiast).. The restaurant was clean, and has plenty of space. I highly recommend eating here if you like good bbq. They also have an all you can eat rib special as well that two of my other friends really enjoyed! read more

3 - Good choice if you're in the area. Skip to the end to see my rating scale. Been wanting to stop at Fat Eddy's for a few years now as I'm a regular in the Grove City area. They have a few craft beers on tap, but most were from breweries with a national presence like Great Lakes and Sam Adams. I would have liked to have the ability to try stuff from some of the breweries local to the area like Big Rail or North Country, but that wasn't in the cards when we were there. Our waitress was friendly and attentive although not super knowledgeable on the product. We were happy with her service. The interior seems like it wants to be on the trendy/industrial side, but came across to me as though there were some corners cut, like the booths came from an old family restaurant at some point. Finally, I was hoping that the food would pull the overall experience up, but it didn't. I suppose it's pretty good if you don't BBQ yourself, but I was hoping for something better than what I can do on my own at home. I think I may have learned from this experience to just eat my own BBQ from now on! None of this is to say that Fat Eddy's is a bad place. It's definitely not. If you're around the outlets, it's a good choice for BBQ and a beer after a day of shopping, but I wouldn't go too far out of my way to visit again. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here read more

Fat Eddy’s Bar-BQ - Brisket and pork! - Barbeque Near Me - Grove City, Pennsylvania

If you are looking for good bbq in the area this is a good option. The brisket is good and the Mac 'n Cheese is okay. I have tried their burgers and I also liked it as it's nice and juicy. The service is relatively quick and friendly. The restaurant has a lot of pigs as decor which is fitting (and cute). read more

Just had one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had at the Meadville location. I don't know how y'all keep that place open. Not only did we get our order wrong but the fat woman working the bar was a 100% high on something. We will never go back she was a complete **** and made us feel very uncomfortable. I never got the name of the fat slob but she was working the bar the whole time. There were two other waitresses there, a black woman and a younger girlwith red hair, they were both very nice. read more

One of the better burgers I've had in a long time. Packed with flavor and served just the way I like it. Washed it down with a icy cold draft. The service was friendly and efficient. The surroundings were typical sports bar chic and was conveniently located just off the interstate. Definitely coming back next time I am on the road to Pittsburgh. read more

Food was great. First time trying burnt ends and they were tasty. Burger was good as well staff was very attentive. Place was clean.

Delicious BBQ! Don't miss it if you're in the area! Service was awesome and they serve a delicious sandwich. Outside dining was great.

We've seen this BBQ spot on our visits to Grove City before and finally got a chance to try it. We were impressed from every single thing we had -- the smoked wings were amazing and their barbecue sauce is incredible -- smoky and tangy and sweet all at the same time. We also enjoyed our burnt ends, brisket, ribs, fries and macaroni and cheese. This is our new spot when we make a trip to Grove City for sure. read more

Food was not tasty also dry. Brisket was dry and burnt ends were not burnt ends, just brisket chunks. Server did not check on us at all. Nor were we offered other sauces. Very disappointed. read more

I was very disappointed with the food the brisket sandwich was horrible. Service was good. The ambience looked ok.

Very nice place and they have good BBQ I've had the ribs, brisket and pulled pork and they are all great . I recommend the stuffed baked potato with brisket , those things are the largest potato's I've ever seen . The staff is great and they have a great bar as well . read more

We had a good time however they had run out of several entrees before we arrived. Beer was good. Service was enjoyable. Brunt ends and stuff baked potatoes was very enjoyable. We will go back again read more

The BBQ is not very good. Probably the only BBQ place in Grove City, PA. I have been there several times, and I have really never had good BBQ. Go if you want, but don't be dissatisfied. read more

The whole experience was great! Had the brisket and pulled pork with Cole slaw and baked beans. It was absolutely delicious! I'd recommend getting all 3 of their sauces- so good and the variety was amazing. We will definitely return! read more

I stopped here on a visit and needed a quick meal to go. I went to the bar to order. The restaurant is spacious and I enjoyed the smell of smoked meat from the parking lot. I checked out the menu and decided upon the smokehouse platter with pulled chicken for $17. For the two sides I ordered the fried Brussels sprouts and baked beans. It also came with cornbread. It didn't take too long to get my order. When I got back to my hotel, I opened the styrofoam to-go container. There was enough food for 2 people. That might be why the price for this entree was a little on the high side--but there was a ton of food. There was no way I could eat all of that for one meal. I ended up eating half and leaving the rest in the hotel fridge. If you're a big eater and hungry, this will be excellent for you. Otherwise, be prepared for some leftovers. (I personally like it when I have extra food left). The fried Brussels sprouts weren't really battered or deep fried-they were really air fried-which is how I make I make them at home (or baked/roasted), so I didn't mind they weren't deep fried. The chicken was very tasty but it was a little on the dry side. The cornbread was light and not too sweet. I noticed inside the restaurant, they said they were established in 2020. If a restaurant can open and survive during a pandemic, I'd say that's pretty good. If you're looking for some decent BBQ, I'd stop and try out Fat Eddys. It was tasty and good BBQ. read more

Amazing place and people we we not there for a surprise 50th birthday party for my wife and it turned out amazing I will definitely be going there again soon read more

Average interior nothing special, 25Nov, 6:30pm - seated immediately not crowded at all. Told the waitress start with the southwest pot stickers n a Fat lager, served the beer and gave her my entree, burnt ends plate, 10 minutes later she brings both pretty damn hard to eat all before it gets cold, poor service. Pot stickers were good, nice and crispy, the burnt ends was a disaster 2 large lumps of fat disguised as meat. Manager did remove it from the bill, but it never should have left the kitchen hence the review. read more

Food was great. Service by Theresa was excellent and decor was great nice place. Could add a little more flavor to Mac n cheese as it was kind of a let down on taste but the brisket was tasty. read more

Got sat right away at a table that wasn't big enough for our group. Our waiter came in shortly after and was barely speaking loud enough. We were celebrating a birthday party and this guy seemed to not be able to care less. After ordering the food took about an hour to arrive without an apology or explanation. Waters ran dry. Server never introduced self. Felt bad for my friend celebrating his birthday. It stinks such a delicious place could have such bad service, ruins things. read more

I ordered the 3-meat smokehouse combo with 1/3 rack ribs, brisket, and shrimp. Instead of 4 decent-size ribs I got about 5 shorty ribs. The ribs were dry with a crusty coating suggesting they'd been on the grill or warmer too long, and they didn't taste very good. Brisket was decent. I enjoyed the BBQ shrimp skewers; they were the only above-average aspect of an otherwise very disappointing meal. The fountain soda was too sweet and also flat - very common at restaurants but still a let-down. The "signature" mac and cheese tasted exactly like Kraft Deluxe white cheddar & garlic & herbs, except with shell pasta. The fried Brussels sprouts were super dry and airy in an insubstantial way - not terrible but not very satisfying. The worst aspect was the BBQ sauce. Only one small cup of sauce provided and it was both too sweet and somewhat rancid tasting. A BBQ joint with only one sauce is already a problem - when that sauce isn't even worth adding to the meat, it's game over. Service was the bare minimum of attention - I was given the check without even an offer of dessert. I hadn't commented negatively to the waitress at all about the food, because I knew I was never coming back so no point in doing so. read more

On 6.16.24, my wife and I dined at the Fat Eddy's BBQ restaurant located at 1920 Leesburg Grove City Rd, Grove City, PA 16127-3354. We ordered the same meal. We enjoyed the 2 slices of smoked turkey breasts, steamed (but lukewarm) broccoli, coleslaw, baked beans (smoking hot), small (about 3.0" diameter) cornbread. Our beverages were club soda ($3.25 per glass) and Samuel Adams Non-Alcoholic (NA) beer ($6.00 per can). The check shows it as, "1 NA GOLDEN". I did not ask why it was not listed as "Samuel Adams NA Golden". CAUTION: Always look at the bottom of the can of Samuel Adams Non-Alcoholic Golden beer, before drinking, for the Best Buy date. The Best Buy date is on the bottom of the can, mind was dated "March 2024" and the beer did not taste fresh. I complained to my server, Nicolle W. and the manager on duty about the old date. The manager's curt and unsolicited commented that, "she will not throughout the beer" was very upsetting to us. I did not suggest she "through it out". I hope she will instruct the servers to warn customers about such old Best Buy dates when the Samuel Adams NA Golden" beer is ordered. read more

Fat Eddy’s Bar-BQ - Barbeque Near Me - Grove City, Pennsylvania

We were out enjoying the day and it was getting close to dinner time. It being Sunday, our dining options were limited, so we decided to give this place another try. We had been there a year or so earlier but it was so crowded and noisy that we ended up leaving after being seated and ignored for 1/2 hour. This time, it was almost empty, so we thought we'd try our luck again and went in for a burger. As soon as our waitress got within 5 feet, we were assaulted by both her overuse of perfume and her extremely loud speaking voice. My husband had to actually plug the ear that was closest to her, which apparently went unnoticed by her. Her perfume was so thick that she actually left a scent trail behind her. I am not exaggerating when I say that her scent permeated the entire restaurant. A little goes a long way.....especially when it is an overpowering scent like the one she was wearing. It was so bad that every time she approached our table, we had to hold our breath. Our burgers were good, but the way they listed the sides under the burger description was a bit confusing. They made it seem like the burger came with a basic side and you could add one of the other upgraded sides for 1 or 2 dollars more. However, that was not the case. Overall, the burgers were good, but the obnoxious perfume smell diminished what would have been an otherwise pleasant meal. read more

What a pleasant end to a Monday ! Walking in the atmosphere is fun, laid back, and made me want to eat bbq and drink a beer. Fat Eddy's have their own house lager !! So good BTW and only $3 on draft ! I Ordered the smokehouse combo, I chose one meat, but you can also choose two or three selections. I went with the pulled pork, it came with house barbecue, a corn bread, muffin , and two sides, I choose baked beans and baked potato. Portions were very generous! My meal was delicious and I enjoyed it very much. Our waitress had just started working there over the weekend. She was very sweet, kind, and hospitable. I will definitely come here again and I am sad I hadn't been here yet lol. Here's to more visits in the future ! read more

Loved this place! Portions were huge, and I mean huge! Mac n cheese was so good you certainly could tell it was homemade, easily a shareable dinner or lunch! Also bloody Mary's are incredible! Staff was super friendly and really down to earth. Sat at the bar, and everything was super clean. Also wasn't sticky, normally at bbq places they can be sticky but certainly wasn't here. Can't wait to go back! read more

Only redeeming quality was the service from Amelie. I think the brisket was cooked in a dishwasher. I genuinely find it insulting that they are allowed to call themselves Bar-BQ. They spent so much time trying to make the interior look like a respectable BBQ restaurant and no time refining their menu. Whoever is in charge of the meats at this establishment should be executed. read more

Zach was great! Super friendly and accommodating. Also the smoked Mac and cheese with pulled pork was very good. Definitely would like to go back if I get the chance! read more

With the Covid-19 shutdowns and quarantine it was surprising to see a new local restaurant (the former Krave Craft Kitchen) rethink their format and be reborn as something completely different. At first I was sad to see Krave shut down, but that was quickly followed by elation to see the owners recreate their business as Fat Eddy's Bar-BQ. BAR-BQ! HOLY HECK! So I ran the first chance I got to give the 'Cue a try. Right now Fat Eddy's is serving in a drive up format. You can call ahead to order or order on the web. Or you can just show up, breathe the smoky deliciousness and place your order. I ordered the ribs and smoked chicken wings. Got enough for the whole family and we sat for the entire meal with the only sounds being smacking lips, licking sticky fingers and quite a few mmmmmmm's. Truly delicious, the ribs were beautifully seasoned and tasty with and without their sauce. The golden amber wings were tender with a crunch and equally delish. They also have sides to go - pasta salad, beans and slaw, homemade chips and beverages to include beer from Timber Creek, all to go. I look forward to enjoying more, and am excited to see such great barbecue finally in Grove City. Hopefully quarantines will end and Fat Eddy's will continue to grow into the sit down restaurant. Until then, make sure you drive on over and give them a try! read more

The Mac and cheese is AMAZING!!! I never leave here disappointed or hungry. Everything is just what I expect.

Came here as a Solo traveler and had the best experience ever. I got the most perfectly baked potato topped with their homemade cheese sauce, barbecue sauce, pulled pork, chives, and broccoli. I paired it with their home brewed unsweetened iced tea. This entire thing was about 20 bucks and so delicious and filling. I absolutely loved it, and I wish I lived closer. Special shout out to my amazing server, Caroline, who was a wonderful conversationalist! read more
