Have been here a few times, really since their first location years ago. It's just not th3 same quality. Cheeseburger ok but too salty. Had the Philly Cheese and it was awful. Meat seemed over cooked, cheese too salty. Probably won't be back after our last visit. Service is always exceptional, good folks. read more

Great food and locally owned. The Buffalo chicken fries are awesome and all the sandwiches are so good, the Steak and Egg is my fav! Highly recommend! read more

Great Food. The chicken Philly was so good. The meat was tender. The fried pickles was slightly spicy and sour and ranch was good too read more

Chubbfathers - Chicken Philly Sandwich and Fried Pickles - Burgers Near Me - Alabaster, Alabama

good food good service neighborhood pub atmosphere. Be sure to check it out while in Pelham.

Delicious honest food! Fast and extra friendly service. Relaxed atmosphere. Don't sleep on the horseradish sauce amazing

First of all the owner is a truly amazing person. They do so much philanthropy and they don't seek out attention, they just do it because it's good and right. The employees wear shirts that simply say "Love Everybody" You taste the love and joy in their food. The burgers are truly epic. The best burger IMHO, is the zydeco. They take their massive fire broiled burger patty and add cheese, Cajun horseradish sauce, fried onions and shredded lettuce. If your really hungry, make it a double! The po-boys and cheesesteaks are also very tasty and anything with that Cajun horseradish is grub-worthy. Their fries are great, regular and sweet potato, but I love to get the fried okra. It hand breaded and delicious. With great food and great people, I'm so happy to have the Chubbfather in our neighborhood! read more

A really good burger was the consensus of the table, but a bit messy. I ordered my chubba sans onions but it came with those anyway. Didn't kick up a fuss since they were sautéed down to almost soup and it's raw onions that really give me issues. The tall kid scarfed the chicken down about as fast as humanly possible. Fries were fresh and crisp. Service was perfect and the restaurant theme/motto/message was present throughout in service, preparation and delivery, and we appreciate that in a business. read more

I've eaten here 3 times. Twice at the brick and mortar and once at the trick. I got the chubba twice and a chicken Philly cheesesteak. About we're delicious. The burger is a mess and I love that. Similar to the Milos Mega meal hamburger with honey mustard. You almost have to get a wash up after you eat either because of all the sauce. Chicken Philly was the perfect size and the bread was soft. I love their fries, sometimes I don't think they give enough but that's a minute complaint. I look forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

Decent inside space and parking lot. Stopped by due to an Yelp Elite event. The staff was friendly and the manager checked up on us frequently. Ordered the cheesesteak hoagie and seasoned fries and it was delicious. Will definitely stop by again to try their burgers next time. read more

The food was great ... the service tho TOP TIER!!! Will be going back next time I'm in the area.

I wanted to give a 5 star review so bad, unfortunately the service bumped it down. We stopped by for dinner on a Tuesday night. It wasn't crowded, maybe half the tables occupied. We placed our order and I had high expectations after paying $30 for 2 burgers, fries, and cokes. The soda machine is behind the counter but it's still self serve. We were sitting next to the food window and the kitchen staff kept filling it up with orders, but no one came to deliver them. I saw food sit 15 minutes in the window. We grew tired of waiting and I asked for our order to be made to go, or cancelled if it was going to be much longer. The woman at the register was quite flustered as the restaurant was now very busy. Turns out our food was one of the orders sitting in the window. She asked the kitchen to box it up to go, and an argument ensued. Finally about 10 minutes later, we had our food and left. Now the food itself, even after sitting all that time, was absolutely incredible! I had the zydeco burger which has bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion straws, and Cajun horseradish The beef patty was perfectly cooked, the bacon was thick and crisp, and the flavors just went together beautifully. I forget the name of my husbands burger but it was a double with cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon, grilled onions, and bbq sauce. We both opted for the fries, and I dipped mine in more of the Cajun horseradish. I would love to go back again soon. I hope the service we got was a fluke. The food is too good to be brought down by poor service. Edit to add: it was 45 minutes from when I placed the order to when we asked for it to go. read more

Chubbfathers - Zydeco burger with fries - Burgers Near Me - Alabaster, Alabama

My family eats or orders takeout a few times a month at Chubbfathers. The food is always great and last night was no exception. Two orders of wings cooked great with tots and loaded cheese fries. Also two orders of buffalo chicken fries which were also great. If you haven't ordered or upgraded your regular fries to the loaded cheese fries then you are missing out! They are incredible. I will also say my family is very picky and has several special requests when we order and they are almost always received the way we ask. They also support your local Thompson High School sports teams which is a bonus. See you next time! read more

Pretty good food. Their fried pickles are really something else! Because there are little to no locations we rarely go, but when we do we know we are going to enjoy the food. Service is alright but not the greatest. Place is cool and has a nice ambiance. read more

Amazing experience! Order at the counter service. Fast and friendly service. Good food and laid back atmosphere!

Awesome food. Excellent friendly staff. This was a first visit but not the last. Atmosphere is outstanding. Will highly recommended.

After reading the great reviews and ratings, my wife and I decided to try out this place last night while we were nearby...and we weren't disappointed! Both of us had the Zydeco burger, one with tater tots, the other with fried okra. The burgers were grilled just right and piled high with fresh ingredients, including the crispy & tasty onion straws. The tater tots and fried okra were both nice & crispy and kept their texture throughout the meal (rather than getting soggy as sometimes happens at other places). The seasoning on the tater tots was very unique (spices like a hint of nutmeg & cloves - not overpowering, just different & interesting) and unlike the typical fried/salty flavor of most tots. The owner was present on a Friday night (at a burger joint!), working in various roles and interacting with patrons. I've found you rarely go wrong at a restaurant where the owner is present and visible, and that certainly explains a lot about our experience here and the obvious attention to detail. We met and visited with him briefly at our table and learned that he has a passion for what he does that goes far beyond just making money or even just running a good restaurant. His passion and hands-on touch are the secret ingredients to the success of Chubbfathers, without a doubt! The only drawback I noticed was that the environment wasn't very pleasant - worn, somewhat sterile decor with "harsh" bright lighting. However, during our conversation with the owner, we learned (without bringing it up) there are plans for an upgrade of the interior beginning next week, so we're eager to see what the new look will be. This was our first time here, but it won't be our last! read more

The service is awesome as usual and the food is usually really good but avoi the pork chops and mashed potatoes. they were not good at all.

I was a little skeptical when my nephew chose this place. It's a little dark and divey when you walk in. But then we were greeted by the friendliest people. They seemed to be family. My group placed their orders and the ladies that helped us were just the nicest. We waited hardly no time for our burgers to come out. I ordered the Zydeco burger. I am not lying when I tell you this was the best hamburger I've had all year. It beats Five Guys and it beats Mug Shots. Something about the way the bun was toasted and the crispy onions were in just the right amount. IT TASTED DELICIOUS! The sauce on that burger was great. It was the perfect burger. And the Cajun fries were the perfect complement. So if you want the best burger you'll have all year... AND great service, then roll on down to Chubbfathers. You'll be glad you did! read more

Awesome food. Local owned burger place that's about 30 min from downtown Birmingham. So worth the drive! Business was busy when we arrived. There seemed to be families coming in and out constantly, good for them! First of all the customer service was great. The staff was very friendly. Masks were enforced and tables were distanced. We ordered the Philly cheesesteak with fried okra, the zydeco burger with seasoned fries, and an order of the hot lemon pepper wings extra crispy. The Philly cheesesteak was incredible. The soft bun was lightly toasted with plenty of cheese. The fried okra was delicious especially with the sauce. Anything with that Cajun horseradish is great honestly. I would definitely come back again. Probably one of the best philly's I've had in Birmingham. read more

We were in alabaster for our daughter's surgery at Bapstist- we saw Chubbfather's good reviews, had heard it was great from a local and ordered pick up! The food was hot, ready and they provided all of the condiments we asked for - I had the Vulcan sandwich, my wife had shrimp tacos, and our daughter had the chicken sandwich- all of it was very good, comfort food at its finest! read more

Great burgers and service. Building is a little outdated, but the food was delicious and the people were fabulous. Definitely worth a stop for sure. read more

It's only so many days in a row that you can eat grilled pork chops and hot dogs (4th of July 2018) before you need something different. Today I had to break from that menu and decided to check out Chubbfathers. I decided to go with the Deluxe burger and Tots. The burger was well put together with all the veggies and the meat was well seasoned and cooked the way I like it. The tots on the other hand were a little salty. Next time I will request no salt. The cashier was very welcoming and inquired about my day and the holiday. She talked with me while I waited for my food. A+ customer service. I will definitely be back and allow my taste buds to try something different. read more

This place was so good that my work crew wanted to come back on back to back nights and get the exact same thing. I obliged because I thought it was pretty good myself, but this time I went with the shrimp poboy. Really good and so big I couldn't finish the last bite or two. I got the fried version, but they also had grilled and blackened. Headed back out of town today after getting done with a job, but looking forward to making this a regular spot. Want to try the wings and the burrito that the owner said was coming out next week. read more

I finally got to go back to Chubfather's and tried the shrimp po boy. This is a very good sandwich. It is full of shrimp and the Cajun horseradish sauce sets it apart from any I have had. My only complaint was that it wasn't a foot long. But considering we are 2 years into Biden's America, $13.99 for a sandwich this good is almost a devine miracle. Also, the staff is very friendly. read more

Delicious wings and poboys. I LOVE that they give you the option of blackened shrimp instead of fried. My husband got the buffalo chicken poboy, and it came with grilled chicken instead of fried. We were both quite happy. Oh, and my picky kiddo really liked her bbq wings. read more
