We just wanted a late night spot for greasy food and chill vibes but unfortunately the service at this location was less than desirable. It took the waitress five minutes just to get to our table and another ten minutes to place the order. When the food did arrive, she initially forgot to give us utensils and by the end of the meal, wasted no time in handing us the check without bothering to ask us if we wanted anything else. At first I thought she was just having an off day, but when her friends came in, she made sure to immediately place an order for them. It also should be noted that the seats are low and uncomfortable so I don't recommend dining here if you are wheelchair-bound. All that said, the food at Fat Pat's was exceptional --from the well-seasoned crispy onion rings to the homemade queso dip. I also really loved the loaded nachos as it was laced with savory hamburger meat and not the grainy taco meat that usually ruins a proper nacho dish. The fried pickles and boneless wings were also well-done and exactly what you would expect from a greasy spoon. I was expecting more of a restaurant and less of a bar but this particular location is essentially a bar that serves decent food. 5/10 decent quality food but I probably wouldn't return! read more

Stopped here for lunch on a work trip - a nice clean place that would be great for after work and game days. The food was good! I got the chicken Ceasar wrap with fries. Wish there was more dressing on the wrap but overall filling. The burger specials looked good and might try next time read more

Every other Sunday is bingo night here and it is so fun. The drinks are amazing with specials on wine and margaritas. My favorite drink I tried thus far though was the cucumber martini. So refreshing! The service here is phenomenal. The bartenders make you feel right at home. We even got to indulge in the ultimate nachos which can literally feed 3-4 people. read more

Service was horrible and the food sucked. There was only one other couple there. Took forever to get our food and it was cold. By the time we got home my husband was not feeling well. Needless to say we will never be going back. Don't waste your time or money! read more

First time at this location, and was very pleased with the overall experience. We walked in and actually sat ourselves, and our server was very friendly. Clean and inviting feel to the restaurant with multiple tv,s. I got a burger with onion rings which was delicious, the buns sweetness balanced the spicy burger. The burger with fries which was regular was seasoned to perfection. Definitely a go to when you crave for a good burger. read more

My family and I went to this bar and this place is Horrible, the food is nasty and ashy boneless chicken wings. The fries and everything was so nasty and prepared as if they just warmed it back up. Don't know how they're still in business. read more

My gawd! i had a blast here. I was in town for a couple weeks (work) and it was my home bar. Bartenders Brittany and Allison killed it. Food was on point. ....I'm out back to Fort Worth. read more

Great place with a choice of two seating areas, very spacious and great staff for sure. We had the pleasure of meeting Taylor, she was so delightful and helpful with the menu. We ordered the pulled pork nachos, wow so tasty delicious. We are coming for more this week. read more

Came for the World Series. No volume on the TV, no music playing. Place is not a vibe at all. Completely dead, classic burger tastes like it was prepared dirty hot dog water and the staff was not friendly. Waste your money somewhere else, quite possibly the worst sports bar I've ever been to read more

Ordered through Uber eats. Food was cold. Fish was soggy. No paper in the bottom of the seafood platter so of course it was a greasy, cold, soggy mess. No corn choux was with my order. Plus the cheesecake was still frozen. Paid almost 100 dollars for food that was worse than McDonald's drive through at 2 a.m read more

The service was slow. They had a pretty good to go business so maybe that's why. The restaurant wasn't clean so that was a huge turn off. Service was efficient. Food was mediocre. Not sure I'd go back. read more

I love to visit this place! It's so close by that I always keep this in mind while making food decisions. They have a peanut butter bacon burger that is so delicious!! My favorite type of burger since I've tried this one. The mile high burger is also a good burger to try but is very full. The strawberry smoothie was surprisingly delicious and very well made. Love this place! Try it! read more

Might be a long post: I normally don't make posts about restaurants because I work in food service. I ordered wings last weekend from Fat Pat's on Verot and my order was completely wrong. I called the restaurant instead of posting something.....wanted to give them a chance to make it right! This is how they made my dry rub right!!!! Unacceptable! I could not capture all the seasoning they threw on top on my wings. But they gave them to me with a smile......imagine that!!!! Now I'm looking for a Sunday wing spot in Lafayette. I wish there was a negative rating! read more

Not good. Slow service, cold burgers, pitiful sides. I won't be back I say try: Broaddus Burgers, Pete's on Johnston, Judice Inn, or Charley G's, instead. Almost any place is better than this ! Sorry, Rick read more

Don't waste ur time, tables are always filthy and the food is dry and bland. This place use to be good but it's not anymore. They must of changed the bread on their burgers b/c that was the highlight of the burger, now they are below average. Don't get the fried chicken strips or the Mac n cheese, both dry and over cooked. read more

The food was delicious. And I always go there. The people that waited on us were very nice.

Always good and fresh! They never disappoint me! I order from them at least once per week. Never fails me!

Absolutely awesome burger place. This place is fun to have a burger for lunch or anytime. The food is great and staff give great service with a smile. The fatboy burger is huge and is hard to fit in your mouth! Lol. They toast the buns which is a nice touch. They have hotdogs and salads if you are looking for something else. read more

Delicious huge burger with a great bun and tasty hand slapped patties ! So what's great about pats is the locals atmosphere that treats an obvious northern to great southern hospitality. With the attentive staff and the fast burger service. Even on a Monday night football crowd ! I can't quite remember what the burger was but it was stacked with onions and local bacon and cheeze!! I'm gonna go back ASAP!! read more

This is the original location, much better than the other locations! Although they are known for burgers and hots, Fats Pats has quite a few good menu items. This of the best burgers around. The patty itself is seasoned well but the slightly sweet bun is what makes the burger. Our order Appetizer - chips and queso (add chili) 7.5/10 Entrees Little boy burger - 8/10 Pounded pork tenderloin sandwich 7.5/10 Fries 6/10 Other menu items I would recommend Ultimate nachos Pork and bean sandwich read more

Always good. Best hamburgers and best hot dogs. Always friendly and courteous staff. Dine in or drive through.

I go here often. So often that the owner hangs a stocking with my name for Xmas. I Am always welcomed when I visit. Super nice people, and I always get great service. Burgers are great, but too big for me to eat. I love the hot dogs but I almost always get the combo platter. Fried catfish and shrimp with fries. Beer is cold and I never have an empty mug in front of me I marked "good for kids" but if rob is there watching lsu, all bets are off read more

Took the family for dinner and had a nice meal. Went to watch a LSU game and somehow got a booth. The booths have TVs as others mentioned. Plenty of large flat screens also. The food was good and fresh. The guacamole and queso were both good and made fresh. I had the Coney Island Chili-Cheese Dog which I would recommend. Good chilie, good dog. One of the kids had the mac-n-cheese which was refreshingly not Kraft... Service was very friendly. read more

I am changing my review of FP to two stars... should be one star, but the food here IS pretty good. FP gets one star for losing my phone charger, and telling me a cock and bull story that they have a box of chargers that other customers left and mine would be put in that box. When I got there, the bartender had no idea what I was taking about, and neither did the manager, nor did they have my charger, which was left in the wall behind the bar with several other chargers. I won't be back. read more

Not an enormous menu, but they do have really good burgers and hot dogs, and sides... Warning though - the large (double?) sized options are HUGE. TVs at each booth are convenient. Margaritas weren't that impressive, but they were cheap. Family owned & operated, which means they care about their customers... read more

Heard advertisements for this place over the radio so finally I was able to try it out. What makes this place unique are the personal tv sets at each table that line the walls. Each TV can be changed so you can watch anything your little heart desires while you hang out and grub. The menu is pretty standard bar related food. I tried the Mile High Burger. It included grilled onions, peppers and pepper jack cheese. Yum! I will visit again to try out their dogs! read more

it fairly new to my area (Lake Charle, LA) so this was my 1st visit. workin I customer service myself I was most impressed with our server Ariel! We never had to ask for anything! We had the fried shrimp entree and the brownie for dessert! The food was really good, seasoned well. My only complaint was my onion rings were cold on arrival read more

Sunday was our second time going to this location and I must say, the service here is the BEST! I'm all about surprisingly personable service and they definitely have here and it's consistent...better than any fine dining restaurant and this is a sports bar! They make me feel like they have been knowing me forever! I love this place! Keep of they great job! P.S. The food is as amazing as the service! read more

The mile high burger is awesome!

I ordered a chicken dinner plate. 14.50 right, two marinated chicken breast with my choice of cheese. It's on the menu but not on the computer or machine for the server to ring it up. So, she rings it up ANYWAY. I GET ONE SHITTY Chicken breast. On a small plate. For 14 50??? NO WAY. So I am not eating it. I ordered fries as a side. I'll snack on those reluctantly. And kids order of mac was sub par. Not paying for the dinner plate. read more

Peanut. Butter. Bacon. Burger. That's it. Nothing more to be said.. Just force yourself to make the leap and enjoy the fall. It's definitely not the choice I would have made without coercion but I definitely do not regret falling for the peer pressure on this one! read more

Fries with the tonys creole seasoning or whatever was good as hell. The peanut butter burger was not too good just not a good combo to me. Probably should invest I. Some shading for the patio if your gonna put tables out there . THe wings should have more options and be a little crispier . I didn't even bother eating my leftovers. Overall , I'd go bad for the fries and some beer. read more

Super fresh. Amazing flavor. One of the best burgers I have had in a while. The food comes out pretty fast as well. Definitely worth the calories. read more

This place was highly recommended for its burgers. Well, the mini burger was huge but bland in taste. Atmosphere is bar style, OK for what it's worth. Wouldn't recommend them to friends for burgers, most likely will not visit here again. Two and half stars at best! read more

Wanted to go elsewhere for a burger and let hubby talk me into this place. Well, they gave our food to the table behind us so they had to remake ours. Got my burger and the patty was in 4 pieces that I couldn't hold the burger together to take a bite. There was so much grease! The paper in the tray was nothing but grease under my burger. I take a bite and no flavor to it at all. Bun was so soggy from the grease. Couldn't eat it read more

I ordered for a special birthday and the quality was so disappointing. The fries were cold, the fish was greasy and salty and the burger was cold and they forgot the bacon. This was my second bad experience however I believe in giving a second chance. The food has declined very much on the Northside. read more
