| - Before reading, know this, FAT's is perfectly safe, its clean, and by no means does my review reflect the inside decor of this place. I would go there 5 days a week if I didn't live 15 minutes away and if they would just have a friendlier bar crowd after hours and a more attentive bar staff.
That said, keep reading.
3 stars for the $1.25 happy hour beer specials and the long bar that allows you to find a seat during. I have had their pizza and it is good. I also dig the free popcorn. Some of the wait staff are sssllllllooowwww and it seems that they ignore you if they do not recognize you as a regular or it could be that the staff is unable to withhold more then one or two beer orders in their head before forgetting. Don't know, its annoying, but the beers are cheap.
It does get pretty full at night with younger kids and some semi goth types. The music later at night is something that you wouldn't find on any local radio stations or on ANY of my cd's / mp3's. Its a slightly lighter version of death music like suicidal tendencies or sepeltura but a tad harder then Metallica, regardless, that too is annoying.
On a high note, they do have daily specials like AYCE crab, $5 pizza, $.25 wings, etc. I just am never there past 8 on the weekday to enjoy these specials. Wings were OK when I had them once and a bearded, 75 year old man sitting next to me had a sausage sandwich that looked pretty good.
Go for the beer.....then do yourself a favor and move on to a finer establishment in downtown Willoughby.
