    Bread bowl chowder
    Louie T.

    They have a nice patio so we could bring our dog with us. Which was great since we are traveling. The Irish coffee was amazing. We both ordered the bread bowl chowder. The chowder was great. But what really said it apart was they toasted the top of the bread with the garlic butter spread. The service was great. Would definitely come back.

    We've been to The Fat Irish Pub a few times, and they are typically busy. The service is always kind, but the young lady serving us today was incredible. She was attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. She went above and beyond! Sandwiches were good, atmosphere fun and inviting. This was our best visit yet.

    We had such a wonderful time at fat Irish kitchen! I was in Brookings for work with my wife traveling with me and we just didn't know where to go, our hotel receptionist said we should come here and man are we glad we listened! The vibe is exactly what you expect from a awesome little Irish pub. Lots of beer artwork on the walls, cool little tree of life art, and the friendliest staff you'll ever find. The bartender Holly was the most friendly bartender I've had in I feel like a decade or more, and the bar back Josh was pretty awesome himself. He gave us some wonderful tips for some other places to eat at as we travel around the state, and all in all both of them gave us some pretty epic conversation. We almost never said at the bar, we decided to this time and I'm so glad that we did! The food was so so, nothing to really write home about but nothing really wrong either. It's bar food, you get what you expect when you go to an Irish pub. Taco Tuesday was well worth it, I'm a pescatarian so I had the fish taco and then tried their awesome potato taco and enjoyed the potato taco the most actually! I wouldn't pay what they normally charge for these tacos, they're pretty basic and the tortillas are not grilled nearly enough, but Taco Tuesday made three tacos only $10.50 and I could mix and match between all the different types so that was totally worth it! My wife tried the honey mustard chicken salad and unfortunately it did not live up to what she had hoped for. It was a really basic salad the veggies were fresh which was fortunate but it was basic, nothing was really seasoned, the honey mustard dressing didn't taste like mustard at all and the chicken was basic breaded chicken that tasted like it was from Dairy Queen. It was fresh, but still tasted like it was from Dairy Queen. All In all, the drinks and the bartender will definitely keep us coming back. Next time it'll just be for some drinks and some fries probably, but I definitely can't wait to try the steamer clams with jalapenos.

    Honestly had a blast here. Very good service with amazing recommendations. I love the overall ambiance of the restaurant right next to the ocean. The chatter of all the older gentlemen and gentlewomen. The fish and chips are splendid and my favorite item. The clam chowder... DELICIOUS but of course it is!! The fries were also such good quality tenders. The alcoholic drink was absolutely so delicious too!!

    My third review in so many years because I am literally running out of the new restaurant to review. Since we played golf in freezing weather, we wanted to warm up before trying out nearby restaurants and Azalea's annual 3 million lighting ceremony tonight. The service and tasty cocktails were amazing and thick, starchy Clam Chowder was the perfect way to get warm. The craft hazy IPA was served chilled and sweet. Fill it to the brim yes sir!

    The food was really good! Service was okay, server could've been a little nicer honestly but wasn't rude either. The show stopper for us was the clam chowder. The taste was really good!

    Bad service and small potions for their soups. They also charge you an extra $ to order and take food to-go.

Hubby had the lasagna, I had the shrimp fettuccine and for appetizers- hubby ordered the cheese curds. We also had a mascarpone cake , the bread basket and our dinners came with salad. The lasagna was legit. Hubby loves to cook from scratch so he saw that their sauce was made from scratch. My fettuccine looked made from scratch too! The shrimps weee grilled to perfection and the sauce was so delicious! The bread was made to perfection and came with a huge cup of whipped butter. Service wise- we didn't get to eat in. But the way they packed the food was with care. We can't talk about ambiance either since we didn't get to eat in there. But we may have to go in there one more time before we head back to SoCal. The only negative- we didn't get to take pics! Food was massive and delicious. If you're ever in Brookings- pls give them a try. Everything we had was delicious.

It's pretty unassuming from the outside, but once seated, the wait staff took great care of our party of 15. The food was reasonably priced with decent portions and excellently prepared. Our party ordered a wide variety off the menu, and no one was disappointed. Our waiter was super friendly and attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, and that everything was to our liking. I wish we lived closer so we could frequent more often.

Many places were closed, so I searched for nearby options that looked decent. I found a highly-rated restaurant and decided to give it a try. The vibe of the place was lively, and it was filled with a younger peeps. I noticed that several older couples walked in, looked around, and then left immediately. My partner and I, being the oldest people there, decided to stay--and we were glad we did! We were impressed with the food and drinks. The Mini Gyros were a standout dish; the tender lamb and beef were packed with flavor, complemented by tomato, cucumber, feta, and creamy tzatziki. The Chicken Strips were also delicious, especially with the crinkle fries. We enjoyed our drinks as well--a classic Old Fashioned and a Margarita. It was amusing that the background music was from our generation, which brought back fond memories of our youth. We had fun watching music videos from the 1990s to the early 2000s, especially since most of the customers were in their 20s. Even though a younger peeps surrounded us, we enjoyed our time out without our kids.

The place was super busy when I arrived there were people waiting outside, which is always a good sign but since I was dining solo, I got seated right away with no wait at all. The atmosphere inside is warm, cozy, and welcoming, with really cool décor featuring cars and car photos that give the restaurant personality and a fun, nostalgic vibe. It feels comfortable rather than fancy, the kind of place where you can relax, sip your coffee, and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. I ordered the shrimp and Swiss cheese omelette with jalapeño, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked. The portion was generous, and it came out piping hot and surprisingly fast considering how busy they were. The coffee was amazing too rich, fresh, and exactly what you want with a hearty breakfast. What really stood out was the service. The servers were attentive, friendly, and on top of everything despite the crowd. They made sure coffee stayed filled, checked in at the right moments, and kept things moving smoothly without making it feel rushed or chaotic. Another big plus: the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. It's rare to find a place that balances great food, fast service, cozy ambiance, and affordability this well. Overall, I'd easily rate it around 4.5 stars. If you're driving along Highway 101 or anywhere near Brookings, this spot is absolutely worth the stop. It's busy for a reason great food, great vibe, and great service all in one place.
