Chocolate old fashioned - 13 dollars
Arun K.

I am so glad I came here again. I visited a Sunday evening. It was a bit crowded, but a sign said I could sit myself anywhere. So I sat in the bar. A bartender greeted me and gave me water. For my drink, I took the chocolate old fashioned (13 dollars). It was strong enough and chocolatly to enjoy. For my main plate, I chose the chicken wings (10 for 17 dollars), half fat rabbit sauce (quite garlicky) and other half siracha. While the wings were not breaded, they were still fried. It was definitely crispy, but still meaty and tender. The sauces were flavorful, and the siracha had the right amount of heat. The ranch dressing was homemade and so good, I ended up drinking it. There could have been more celery, but it was fresh and crispy. They only had one dessert, and unfortunately it wasn't homemade, so I passed. My bartender was friendly, but busy. She had a helper, but lots of patrons to serve. Yet, she was still very nice and helpful when needed. The vibe is social and casual. I would have thought they would have more USF students, but mostly locals who are enjoying a good atmosphere. Outdoor seating is available as well, and it looks like you can bring your pooch too. When it was time to check out and pay, I noticed they forgot to charge me for my drink. When I mentioned that, they told me not to worry about it. It was a very nice gesture from them. Parking here is easy as it is located in the Publix complex. There is also a Don Julio's and Bundt Cakes nearby for dessert too. The Fat Rabbit pub provides great casual bar food in a social atmosphere. The indoor dining is large enough to feel comfortable, and outdoor seating is also there if you want to enjoy with your dog. I am glad I chose this place again as it was near my hotel. Definitely coming back for more great bar food at reasonable prices. Overall: A

Amazing drinks, wings, and service every time. We love coming here for happy hour, and fun decor. Highly recommend!!

First of all, the wings here are absolutely amazing. They were flavorful, meaty and fried post right. The service is great and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and they have options for catering and can hold large parties if interested. They have been around for a while and are also a brewery so if you're looking for a nice spot, this is certainly a great option to try out!

Was really excited to try this place, they have outside seating, nice space outside but was very disappointed when the food came. I ordered a simple thing as a burger and fries. What I got were the soggiest but weirdly over cooked fries I have ever seen, so much so that the fry would just flop over, they literally couldn't keep their shape straight. You can see how shiny they were with all the oil. So disappointed, it's pub food and the fries were awful. Obviously weren't fried in the right temperature. If I was the owner of this establishment, I would never serve this to a customer. Needless to say, will never go back.

Been to sit at the bar here several times for a quick drink after work and always had a good time. Good service. Excellent beer selection on tap. Tried some of the specials for happy hour food wise and was never disappointed for a quick bite. Laid back chill dive bar vibes.

The fat rabbit has delicious burgers hands down...the best burgers in New Tampa and quite possibly all of Florida in general. If you want wings, also cant go wrong with ANY OF THE FLAVORS on the menu, it's why I personally love to order the flight so I can get pretty much 1 of everything I love. I also love to order a side of tots and a smoked old fashioned or glass of wine to savor it all with dinner. Always a treat to come to the fat rabbit, a hidden gem.

Wing Flight
Jordyn W.

stopped by here after the uptown cheapskate thrift shop next door & im so glad i did! the drinks were all great! i got the thumper derby which was super refreshing. the thyme away is also a great choice. i tried the cloud 9 margaritas they offer with thc. really cool to try. i got the cuban sandwich with tater tots, so so good. but the star of everything i tried were the wings. my bf got the 5 wing flight to try the flavors and every single one was incredible. we tried buffalo garlic, fat rabbit (the best one), blackened, honey garlic, & sriracha dry rub. all of them were great but the fat rabbit really stood out as something i've never had before. server was amazing, food came out fast & hot. such a great place to eat at & when im back in tampa i will definitely be here again!

Smoke House Burger
Yesenia M.

The location is very well maintained. They had great table tops and a variety of liquor options. My husband was very pleased with their bourbon selection. Our waitress was very friendly and her service was excellent. The food and drinks were tasty. The seasoned fries were delicious. We tried the smoked house burger, the adult grilled cheese, and the short rib rice bowl. Everyone was pleased with the food. My son and I both felt like the short ribs were a little dry, but all in all it tasted good.

Side salad, tots with truffle sauce/toppings, cuban panini
Barb D.

Just what we were looking for while in Tampa for an appointment - something casual and local for an early dinner. Good service, food came out quickly. They had some unique and yummy bar food type items. Always love a signature salad! Seemed like a cool place where you could chill for awhile.. on another day we probably would have sat at the bar for more drinks.

On tap menu

First time visit and well worth the visit. Had Cubano sandwich with onion rings, very delicious. Tap beer list has something for everyone's taste.

Wings are good when it's crispy skin and meat that doesn't require teeth to clench and pull... mean not cooked!

We sampled the local Reef Donkey brew, which definitely lived up to the hype--smooth, flavorful, and well balanced. A great choice if you're new to their beer lineup. We started with the hot pretzel served with queso and mustard. It came out warm, soft, and perfectly salted--ideal for sharing and easily one of the highlights of the visit. The pizza was generously topped and very cheesy, which we appreciated, though the quality of the sausage could use some improvement to better match the rest of the ingredients. We also tried the hot chicken tenders with hot honey drizzle. Flavor-wise, they were decent, but the portion size felt closer to boneless wings than tenders. The fries were hot and crispy, but overall the chicken itself could benefit from a crispier exterior. Worth noting for future guests: the Red Eye cider buffalo sauce comes with a $1 upcharge. Overall, this is a fun spot with a strong beer program and solid starters. Hoping to return in about six months to see improvements and refinements to the food offerings, as the potential here is definitely there.

One thing I enjoy when I'm here is the happy hour deal. $5 for loaded tots, cheese curds, or wings,…read moreall great food options. My go-tos are the loaded tots and the cheese curds. The loaded tots come in a hearty portion with bacon bites, cheese, sour cream, and jalapeño. The toppings really do make each bite flavorful, with a different combination in every bite. The sauce with the cheese curds carries a spicy punch, and the cheese curds themselves are a bit on the salty side, but I really enjoy the chewy texture. There's always a good menu of brews on tap. This time I tried the Cream Warrior, and I liked it a lot. It's light and comes with a cream soda/Yakult aftertaste, and as an Asian kid, I loved it. The place gets really popular for trivia night, with a happy, communal vibe. The staff are always friendly. One thing I especially love is the TVs at the bar: there's almost always two on sports, one on a game show channel, and the highlight is the TV in the corner tuned into a Too Cute channel featuring kittens and puppies.

The food all looks SO good but I was on a budget and there for a party so DRANKS! I love that a beer focused place also has a lot of delicious mixed drinks. I had the key lime pie martini and a white sangria. Both were AMAZING. I'm not usually a martini girl but this one was vodka based which I will always take over gin and it was a lovely sweet and sour flavor. And you can't go wrong with a good white sangria. The guava mojito is calling me back! The bar workers were awesome and SO fast considering the big crowd. We were also there for surprise trivia night and decided to participate and we had an amazing time. I already asked my other friend group if we can go sometime so obviously I had fun!
