    The Single Burger
    Robert N.

    In concept Fat Shack sounded amazing. All the unhealthy food you could want with some of it put together to make some sandwiches that have a calorie count higher than the GDP of some countries. In some ways it hits. The service was amazing and the food came out quickly. The restaurant was clean and has plenty of seating both high tops and lower tables. It has a Colorado sports theme and some televisions to watch games. However, unfortunately the food was not very good. The burger was okay, but the "fat sandwich" was not.given that it had fries, mozzarella sticks, Philly cheesesteak, and French fries on it I expected a flavor explosion, but it really Just tasted like reheated fries. The price was pretty high for a fast food restaurant too. TL:DR - Not as good as it sounds

    These are the fried Oreos with chocolate sauce on the side. The come 3 or 5 a serving

    The customer service was exemplary! You don't expect an effort to connect and an explanation of the fast food restaurant's focus and vision. He made this fast food experience uniquely pleasurable. I had a half sandwich which was more that enough. Not sure why Americans like huge portions- I am glad they had the half sandwich as an option which was tasty. The onion rings are yummy as well- next time I might just order onion rings and the fried Oreos which took you back to the carnival. I highly recommend you stop by

    First time here, I wish I would have gotten the two guys names when we were in, both were very polite and professional! The gentleman who took our order suggested a couple items, I took him up on his go to burger and darn if it wasn't delicious! We also tried the Fat Shack sandwich, it was huge and delicious! We had both fries and onion rings, you really can't go wrong with either. This location was very clean!! We will definitely be back, and hope to see the same guys working so I can get their names and give them a huge shout out!

    Holy Moley me, these sandwiches are insane! Super messy to eat, but very yummy. I ate half of a chicken tender, French fry, and Mac n cheese sandwich and then ate the ingredients out of the second part. Very bready, but good bread! It was soaked in marinara sauce, so I ate that later when I was hungry again. I didn't like how the fries get soggy in the sandwich, but that's no one's fault - just science. Staff was very nice and there was quite a collection of random upbeat music playing.

    Student discount but we showed an id and still didn't get the discount either.

    Absolutely terrible service. My family and I came in to grab lunch and the blonde man who was working was rube right off the bat as soon as we came in. I could understand not getting great service in they were busy but we were the only people in the building. When we asked if we could use the tablet on the front counter to order he said "only takes cash" and walked away. How do expect people to want to come to a place to eat and be treated as if though the employee is upset that they are there. It's no wonder places like these are going out of business if you have rude employees that dint have any common courtesy. My family and I will not be returning here. If I could give 0 stars I would. Also not super upsetting on my side of things but you should talk to employees about upselling. When my aunt tried to buy a peace tea he kept saying "are you sure? They are only small cans and are like four dollars" that was said in a rude tone but it was expected at this point. It also took forever to get our order and that makes sense because every time we would look to see what was taking so long he was on his phone. Each one of our sandwich's only had ONE tender in it as well. My brother's sandwich didn't have any onion rings in it and everyone's sandwich only had one tender in it. Very disappointing and a waste of cash.

    Food was great, good sized portions and perfectly done. The service was excellent!! Great helping us first timers and brought our food out to us. The music was good and chive on tv the teens were happy while waiting for the food!

    See fried chocolate chip cookies
    Rorey D.

    Stopped in for a treat while waiting for an appointment. I had the deep fried chocolate chip cookies and a Oreo shake. They both tasted good. I think the deep fried cookies are worth a trip. Overall I enjoyed it. A couple things that could be improved. They have the restroom locked and when I asked for the code to use it after ordering I had to wait and then they literally escorted me and entered the secret code for me. This was totally odd in my opinion and didn't sit well from a service standpoint. The food is good but their small shake is REALLY small. I think my kids had silly cups bigger when they were little. I can't give five stars when customers are treated like some kind of infiltrator when they want to simply use the facilities and they charge pretty steep prices for such a small shake.

    Chicken Fingers

    So my total came out to ten bucks for three chicken strips with a side of ranch, which they charge for of course. I thought they were gonna be very large strips like most other chicken places offer, I was surprised to see that the strips were the size of the end of a fork. Literally bite size. Like it was for a kids menu. First and last time here.

    Being the first one in line and no other customers in the restaurant it took the owner and his associate 15 minutes to make my food while one of the people behind got his food first and grub hub orders were being made. At 7pm two more workers showed up and I waited still. I ordered one sandwich which is mostly gross fried foods and very little steak meat. Tasted dry with very little sauce. The owner offered a soda as to make up, but bad service is bad service. I won't be back and won't recommend this chain or store to anyone.

    Nice clean establishment

    Ok so some of the reviews are putting this place way lower than I really feel it should be. Is this a five star amazing burger establishment... No! Is this the greatest fried food in the world...No! But let me break down for you why it is better than even the two/three stars a lot of people are giving it. First, we came here one day because my 10 year old wanted a burger (she lives burgers) and so we were going to go to Wendy's (a five star Wendy's) and the burger she wanted was going to be $8.49 for just the burger, make it a meal and add $2. So for a Wendy's burger we would pay over $10, may I remind you is a pathetic frozen patty with crap yucky freezer burned lettuce and tomatoe toppings and some microwave or deep fried bacon drenched in a "special" sauce to eliminate any janky fast food flavors. All this to say a FAST FOOD burger for over $10 that is pathetic. Ok let's talk Fat Shack! First the double bacon cheese burger was $7.99 (for two fresh patties) and the toppings where free and fresh with any toping you wanted and a fresh bun. It was huge and my daughter was stuffed half way through, with good tasting yummy loaded cheese and bacon. Such a better value than the Wendy's burger, might I add was rated 5 stars (what???). Ok yes, the food here is mostly fried, and it isn't fantastic, but for the amount and the quality, it by far is better than any fast food chain and deserves a better rating. It has friendly hard working staff, a clean establishment and is open late catering to anyone with midnight cravings.

    We are disappointed to say the least. Ordered online and my husband went to pick it up. The food was 40 minutes late (of which half of the order sat under the lights until the rest was ready). He got it home and it was missing two of the sandwiches and one of the fries (two out of three sandwiches). Very disappointing. For the money you'd be better off going to a local joint like Clancy's. I'd tell you how the food was but I'm now making grilled cheese sandwiches for me and my daughter.

    every time i come here the employees never fail to live up to the motto "late night done right". when i have an order, no matter how small or large, i am not treated rudely as if i were visiting a mcdonald's, instead i am greeted with smiling faces and food that satisfies my cravings

    Wrong phone number. Also, ordered and received email confirmation at 12:30. The 1:25PM must be the time they are supposed to start preparing

It took about 5 minutes for us to be greeted by anyone working; there were two employees working behind the counter, both were busy making sandwiches. Eventually one let us know it was going to be a few more minutes before they could take our order, to which I didn't mind - I recognize it takes time to make sandwiches. We waited for a bit (probably ~10 minutes), and then decided to place an order with them online and continue walking around while we waited. It took about 15 minutes for our order to be ready, so maybe this is the best way to go about ordering so you're not just standing around. To clarify, I didn't mind waiting but it also made sense to place the order and then walk around while waiting. I ordered the North of I70 Italian sandwich, and indicated that I wanted mayo, mustard and oil + vinegar. My wife ordered the sweet baby turkey, and also asked for mayo and salt + pepper. Neither of our sandwiches had any condiments on them (pic included). Each sandwich cost $20, and while I realize that the price of good deli meat has gone up, it was definitely a bummer to not have exactly what we ordered on a sandwich that costs so much - $40+ for 2 standard size sandwiches. The other thing to note is that the mushrooms are not fresh - also included a pic of the mushrooms which I assume come from a can/jar. Had I known the mushrooms were not fresh, I would not have ordered them. I was really rooting for this place to be good, but was overall disappointed in the experience and outcome of our order.

I had it saved but couldn't quite remember why...until we turned the corner and saw a line out the door around noon on a Sunday. Normally that might be a dealbreaker, but once we saw the food coming out, we were all in, it looked way too good to pass up. The menu is stacked: everything from sweet pastries to savory sandwiches and even pizzas on what looked like fresh, fluffy focaccia. I went with the prosciutto sandwich (prosciutto, cheese, pesto on focaccia), and it was incredible--simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. My girlfriend had the ham sandwich on a baguette, which was just as good. We were also tempted by the turkey and some seasonal options, so we'll definitely be back to try more. We couldn't leave without grabbing a couple pastries. The almond croissant was a hit (my girlfriend saved it for the next morning and loved it), and the standout for me was the cinnamon white chocolate cookie--kind of like a snickerdoodle but with white chocolate chips. Easily a top tier cookie. Between the quality, variety, and how clearly everything is made with care, this place jumped straight to the top of my list.

The vanilla custard bun was simply the right size for me (I not too long ago had just had my late breakfast so I was still quite full from it.) Perfectly brown on some of the custard on top. This Portuguese style dessert is a staple at any bakery or dessert shop. It's moist and yet the flaky out layers made the perfect sound as I bit into it.

My friend was a cook here for a short while and quit on them once he realized they care nothing about serving food that is safe to eat, he saw them do sooo many things that would easily make the food contaminated and unsafe to eat and somehow that was there process of doing things. Here are a couple examples of menu items one should try to steer clear of Chicken parm sandwich- they cook off a large batch of the chicken cutlets and let them sit at room temp for a hour or two until someone orders one they refries them for a minute or so, your supposed to keep food hot once it is cooked especially chicken to leave cooked chicken at room temp for so long is extremely risky to the public's health. Meatball sandwich- they leave there meatballs on the hot line all day then they save all of the hot food items from the day and reuse them the next day without properly cooling any of the food and the cooks will leave these item sit out at room temp for about 45 mins before even putting them into the cooler. Many issues with this practice first of all hot food should be discarded after 5 hours according to the health department because after 5 hours it will start growing bacteria, to leave it on a hot line all day then save them for the next day and not even cool them down properly is Crazy risky to people's health and they do not just do this with the meatballs they do it for many of there hot dishes they are used for days on in, not properly cooled and not properly tracked for how many times it has been reheated and such me they keep them in the same pans it's flat out gross. Other issues my friend encountered there was never seeing anyone at all wash there hands at any point in time, a ancient dishwashing machine that didn't clean anything at all it didn't even get hot so half of there dishes are greasy and have food residue on them, in his short time there he saw people fired for no reason what's so ever from what he was told the owner fires people left and right and doesn't even give reasons as to why, that's why they have ads up on indeed looking for employees 24/7.
