I eat here at least once a week when they're not fighting the water-apocalypse. Amazing food, great people. I hope they get their flooding situation sorted soon because I'm jonesin'! 

Business response:

We hope so too. There have been a few unexpected twists. With some luck, we will be back in action later this coming week!

Fat Patties is the best place to get a burger in Southern Illinois. The staff is always amazing, and willing to offer suggestions. The atmosphere is classic Carbondale, so make sure to bring sharpies for the table!

My first time eating here, and I loved the food and was low priced. I would highly recommend the chili cheeseburger and fries. 

Business response:

Thanks for coming in! And have fun at the new Carbondale Splash Park tomorrow.

I've been here before, years ago, but my kids got a take out menu at Castle perilous and I've been dying to eat here. We went today and had a delicious meal! Everyone cleaned their plate and I have picky eaters, That never happens!! Everything was perfect and one of a kind. The waitress was very nice and accommodating. Will definitely be coming in more often. 

Business response:

Happy to be part of your Sunday!
