Good food and service and excellent atmosphere with a large selection of items and drinks

This restaurant is located where the old Fat Cat Tavern used to be on East Bay across from Outback Steakhouse in Largo. The space is expansive with lots of room inside and out. We opted for a nice booth inside. For an appetizer, we ordered the Fried Mushrooms. They were awesome! They're freshly battered and fried to perfection. They are an A+. For entrees, we ordered the Stockyard Burger and the Pressed Cuban Sandwich. The burger was huge, perfectly cooked (medium) and delicious! It came with fries that were very good. The Cuban sandwich was a little disappointing due to the small amount of meat it had and it was over-pressed and hard. With some yellow mustard, the flavors came together. For an upcharge, we got their Onion Rings and OMG! If anything, order some of the onion rings! The service was speedy and friendly (thanks, Christal!) Overall, we had a great meal. It definitely has elevated the bar food experience. Everything was fresh and made on site...not frozen. The prices were reasonable and the beer was ice cold! read more

We've been to Eddie's a few times and each time we've had a great experience. The bartenders are friendly & attentive & the food has been spot on. So far we have had the fried shrimp, fish & chips, shrimp po boy - both as a sandwich and a wrap, burger & boneless wings. All have been really good - my favorite was the po boy as a wrap as the sandwich just had too much bread & was difficult to eat. Their fries are good as well. Eddie's is definitely a solid addition to the neighborhood. read more

First time here for the Queen Bee and me; we chose to sit at the inside bar even tho an acquaintance from Bro's (our Thursday hangout) is a regular here at the OUTSIDE bar. It actually seems quite nice out there if you don't mind the drifting cigarette smoke from the sidewalk. One of the local radio stations plays on the speakers too. Anyway, both seem quite well kept, clean, etc. Inside and outside one will also find plenty of tables and hi tops. Inside there's also a small game room (skee ball, etc) along with a couple dozen flatscreens showing every kinda sporting event one can ever hope to find. Restrooms are TOTALLY, AMAZINGLY clean and kept too! As my dear Queen Bee was getting hungry, I finally started looking at the menu. I asked Danielle what apps are more popular. She instantly told us that all of 'em are made with fresh ingredients, hand breaded/battered, not much frozen stuff at all, particularly things like their onion rings, fried shrooms and buffalo cauliflower. She also said the portions are quite generous. The guy next to us, for example, had their jalapeño popper dip. Thst plate was huge! Big bowl of dip and a veritable mountain of tortilla chips... We chose fried shrooms (ranch on the side), and Danielle was right on...I can't sue her for false advertisement on THESE buggers! My dear Queen Bee said that they were the best fried mushrooms she's ever tried. I can't say as I disagree either. Well fried, beautiful & juicy mushrooms with a ranch that definitely didn't taste like it came outta the gallon-size container off the ol' Sysco truck. One small service gaff: menu says they come with horseradish sauce. We were offered bleu cheese or ranch; oops! Although them mushrooms out quite a dent into both our appetites, we chose to hang out for a good while longer. Every day offers a different special: e.g. Friday a fish and chip day, Wednesday is burger day, etc. Each item is offered everyday; as a daily special it's offered at discount without downsize. Queen Bee decided on apple walnut salad...apart from the obvious, it also has red onion, tomato wedges and cranberries all atop "mixed greens." As I myself am a living walking insult to the vegetable kingdom, I opted for what they call a "Dunedin Cheesesteak." It normally comes with white American, grilled onions, peppers and shrooms on what they claim as a roll from Philadelphia (Amoroso). I switched it to mozzarella cheese and no peppers or mushrooms. Fries or slaw is the side option; I chose the former (without seasoning). They weren't kidding when they say they have big portions. I took photos of my neighbors' dinners just as further example...As for our own stuff: again...I see the theme of fresh continue down the line uninterruptedly. It just took 25 minutes after ordering until it came out. I must say, though, that it became VERY busy in here, AND Danielle kept us up to date. That said: Queen Bee's choice excelled; mine not quite so. QB loved her salad and took half of it home for lunch the next day. As one can see, it too was quite the hefty parcel. My cheesesteak was HIGHLY mediocre, if even that...a polite way to say that in Philadelphia, this sammich would go right into the TRASH! I pushed it away after a short while. I ate half but the other half not even worth a doggy bag; fries no better. Blah! To their credit, Danielle said she'd ask if they'd get rid of the charge for it. Not for nothing: Danielle is a true GEM in this place. I couldn't ask for a better barkeep and server. We truly love her attitude and work ethic!!! Next time I'll just have a burger and call it a day. read more

We had such a great time at Eddies. We came with our 7 month old. The service 10/10 with great recommendations. I wish I knew the waitress name because she was amazing. The ambiance is great for kids they can play in the arcade and lots of TVs great for sports games. For food we tried the fried mushrooms, the freshly battered boneless wings with Thai chili & lemon pepper and the tater tots it was all so good. I would def recommend and come back. read more

Hidden gem at the far end of a strip of stores in Largo... It's not often you find a sports bar with A+ quality food. My sister-in-law took my nephew and me out for lunch here soon after our arrival, and it was a definite homerun!! Lots of tempting "bar food" choices, but definitely a step (or three!) above average. My nephew's burger of the day choice was truly monumental (literally a TOWER of burger!!) while my SIL's Philly cheesesteak was stacked high enough for two or three meals. My apple walnut salad with add-on, perfectly cooked and seasoned grouper was GREAT, and also provided great leftovers. Quick, friendly mid-day service, reasonable prices (check out their Happy Hour deals) and something for just about everyone. Not a bad choice at all if you're looking for a quick bite AND trying to avoid the tourist crowds!! Eat/hang out like a local... Yum!! read more

This may have been the cleanest and brightest bar I have ever been in. And the food was even better. Be prepared to share or carry, the portions are large and fresh. We had two burgers, both delicious and you would do right with any of them and boneless chicken wings with Peanut Thai sauce. The beer was reasonably priced, and the service was pleasant, attentive, and accurate. There is no hurry to get the food out, which in a sports bar is great. Highly recommended, A- from me! read more

I loved going to the Dunedin location whenever I was in the area, & I'm happy that they opened up this location right around the corner from my house. Came in after a grueling day at work for a couple drinks. The servers are friendly & personable, & they have the same laid back vibe that I love from the other locations. My favorite food items have always been the grouper sandwich, the grouper bites, the fried mushrooms, & of course the wings. I didn't get a chance to try anything on my first visit, but I am definitely coming back to see how the food compares. read more

My wife went with friends for a Monday GAO conference and had 12 people in attendance! Food was great! Service was spectacular and the TV's surrounded the entire place. There's a nice glass indoor outdoor seating area that is very unique. She recommended the French fries! read more

This place is UNbelievable! Our favorite server is Dom! She's the best. You must try the buffalo cauliflower. These guys know how to cook.

Fairly new restaurant to this particular area (Largo .. ( formerly FatCat) . This is my 2 nd time there and definitely not the last . 1st time I had the Eddie burger my tablemate had the hamburger with a fried egg, and bacon. It was awesome the"best " hamburger around the area. It was cooked just the way I like it ( rare) no question asked. Fresh tomatoes, lettuce, onions mayo. Came with FF or very good coleslaw. 2nd time Monday special boneless chicken with French fries. Not my usual menu item ( partial to bone in wings). Anyway they were great quantity aboveboard fresh and hot. Also had several craft beers on tap. Needless to say it was soo good. This establishment ( company ) has 2 more restaurants around the area. Can't vouch for the other 2 BUT this one is awesome. Price is spot on , very friendly staff . It's a very cool restaurant. Kudos to the staff and particularly the owners... thank you for coming to Largo and being our new " neighborhood bar and grill. read more

Walked in and the waitress said "sit wherever you want." There were about 8 empty tables all of them dirty . So we cleaned off one ourselves and sat, and sat, and sat. 28 minutes later we got up and went to Rumbas. read more

We've been reading about this new spot and so we had to check it out. Taco Tuesday! My husband got the beef, I got chicken. The chicken tacos were super dry...they were just missing something. No tomatoes, just lettuce and cheese on the tacos. The beef were pretty good so we ordered extra salsa and some queso to jazz up the chicken tacos. Salsa and queso were good. Bartender was great. We sat at the outdoor bar which was really nice until a couple started smoking just outside of the dining area by their table. The ladies next to us agreed that the smoke was definitely annoying. Perhaps they should have a designated smoking area away from the open air dining room. read more

Carissa rocks! Thank you for the great service and conversation after working a double!

Fun place to watch many sporting events. We had a great time and fast friendly service while watching football. The food was good, would probably try something different when I went back, the wings were ok as I was happy they could put two sauce on them. read more

I need a few more visits to gauge, I really liked Fat Cats and the new setup I'm not crazy about. The fact that there will be no live music also soured me so I hate to throw out a rating before trying the menu more. I liked the taco Tuesday special and the bathrooms were nice, I also like the patio. read more

If you want to watch a game this is the place. There are tv's everywhere but it wasn't loud. There is also outdoor seating. We had a party of 12 and had great service. I had a fried grouper sandwich. The grouper was huge and delicious. I would order it again. read more

Carissa was our server and did a phenomenal job!! The food is delicious and the service was superior! I would highly recommend this establishment! Lots of TV's for your sports viewing!! read more

I was eagerly waiting for this place to open, and went in the second day, Tuesday. I used to hang out a lot at the old Fatcats, so wanted to check out the new place. I liked the outdoor bar area, but the inside had an awkward layout, a big game room which no one was in, a lot of wood and TV'S. Too bright and absolutely no ambiance at all. Had the taco's which were ok, could be better with a little extra effort. Bartenders were ok, but I prefer female. Not really trying to knock the place, everything was ok, but there are better places in the area, such as Finley's. In my opinion, they could have saved $100k, touched up Fatcats and had a better layout. I'll go back again later to see if things get better. read more

Totally lame. One bartender at 5 pm. Waited 13 minutes at bar waiting for service before walking out. Stopped at Coco's down the street and was promptly served even though they were packed. read more

They did an awesome job revamping this old Fat Cat location. Its very cool inside, lots of large TV's , comfortable seating and a nice menu . The service is spot on from the time that you sit down, very friendly and efficent. We were checked on several times to see if we were enjoying our dinner and if we needed any drink refills.. The burger special on Wednesday is well worth trying. They are delicious with the burger being cooked perfectly Medium and the toppings were so very good. The bun was so nice and fresh... the potato tots delishous and covered half of the plate, We will return for sure! I highly reccomend this place. read more
