Where to start? Â The $5 burger Mondays are great. Â I don't eat beef but they let you substitute for a chicken breast which is awesome! Â I went with my daughter for some daddy-daughter time and they got her order wrong. Â The waitress immediately offered to take it off the bill. Â When her food came it was hot and fresh and clearly had just been made. Â
We had two chicken burgers, she had a soda and I had a beer and my total was less than $8 because of the error. Â You simply can't beat that!
The food really was good but everything else was just awful! We went on Burger Monday so we weren't surprised that the place was full but we could see 2 empty tables going unbussed while we waited. They also apparently have a policy of quoting a half hour wait for a table on mondays even if they have several that just need cleared. This makes no sense to me.
Once we were seated we quickly realized that the tables were not getting cleared because our waiter didn't really feel like working. He stood up near the door socializing for a good 10 minutes at a time until he eventually seated a girl near us so he could visit with her. We had to ask twice for condiments and drained our drinks completely and had a bit of a wait before we could get the waiter to refill for us.
We also both thought the boothes were uncomfortable. We felt like we were a mile from the table but also the back of the booth tilts forward at the top and it pushes taller people the exact opposit of the normal, comfortable seating position where you're tilted back a bit.
At least one of the tables that was empty when we arrived remained uncleared the entire time we were there. Thanks to the policy of telling people there's a 30 minute wait though, no one was waiting for tables anymore. I think they all left. I kind of wish I'd gone with them.
I've been going to the one in Mesa for about 3 years and now I found this one in Gilbert. Ive only been at this lo action for lunch and the have good service. They have good bar food. I've tried a couple of the burgers and a couple of salads and I love the buffalo chicken salad. I would recommend you try this bar-staurant .
Review Source:Decided to try this place for breakfast  as we received a BOGO. The only reason I gave this place a 1 star was for the mere purpose of writing the review.  Service was absolutely terrible and excruciatingly slow.  We had been sitting for 15 minutes before the server even approached our table....and another 15 just waiting for the drinks.  Needless to say., after our food finally arrived , the potatoes looked like they had been sitting there for hours...brown, dry and cold.  Eggs were cold and not made as ordered, toast was cold...it was an absolute nightmare! Terrible experience! Dont waste your time and money...and your taste buds!
Review Source:We found a BOGO coupon in the Saguaro Gold coupon mag and decided to try this place out Sunday morning about 10:30 am. The country-fried steak and eggs breakfast was decent for the price. The service was friendly but very slow due to the fact that there was only one server to take care of the entire restaurant and bar. I would go back if I found another coupon.
Review Source:Went there for trivia night last Wednesday and it wasn't very busy and it was still happy hour. Â I ordered the wings and asked for them crispy - I dont think the cook in the back knew what that meant because they werent - and they were very greasy. I dont know how you can mess up wings but they were eh. Â Our server was trying hard but everyone had to ask for refills, not exactly on top of his game. Not impressed with this place at all.
Review Source:This establishment is horrible! Â Service was TERRIBLE, main entrees arrived 20 MINUTES apart, the chicken wings were the size of turkey legs, mushy, Â and the wing sauce had a strange bitter taste. Â The waitress took her sweet time doing anything, we had to ask for refills on our drinks, waiting so long that most of the ice melted in the glasses! Â The sandwiches looked like they were slopped on the plate by a child. To make matters worse, both of us have our heads in the toilet puking from food poisoning! Â ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE PLACE!
Review Source:Local spot very friendly staff and allot of tv's. i never saw fat willy but i will look for him next time i am there come december. no specials otherwise would been 5 stars food on other hand was amazballs. it would help if they play sound of football games though there was no music or anything only noise was noise me and my drunk family provided.
Review Source:The menu is great (for a bar) but the staff and organization is a bit to be desired. Â When I say staff, I mean the service. Â They aren't exactly on top of their game at Fat Willys. I went for Cinco de Mayo and it was painfully obvious they didn't have the event planned out well. Â The only thing thing that made up for it was the server outside who made the best margarita I'd ever had! Â Overall, it's ok if your looking for a neighborhood bar and don't mind having to flag down your server.
Review Source:Let me preface by saying that five stars in this case does not mean everything is great food wise... but I love this place. Awesome beer selection. The wait staff is always friendly, though they have been going through a lot of changes recently. Daily lunch and happy hour specials are great. I would recommend the $5 burger on Mondays. I am quite happy with their wings. Most of the sandwiches are good as well. The real deal is just to sit there drinking a few beers watching a game or coming for one of their parties. It is a true sports bar with lots of both going on.
Review Source:Went here for lunch today it was the most awkward uncomfortable lunch I have had I walk in sat at the bar the ??? Owner gave me a cold hello and walked back into the kitchen then I sat there for 4/5 minutes when the waitperson showed up gave me a fairly friendly hello although the service deteriorated from there ????? I showered brushed my teeth comb my hair  i ordered the wings and asked if I could split the flavors she said it must be 50/50 ok I can deal with that .......she came back out to inform me they had NO WINGS AT ALL...........serious.....so I ordered there 5 dollar burger and asked for it medium and got it basically well done I'm not even sure it was the burg I ordered but I really just wanted to eat and leave at this point she never asked me how any thing was and when she took my check for 18 dollars with a 20 dollar bill she brought me my change and never said a thing .....like thank you or thanks for coming in or ...........ok here's one thing they had a good selection of beer on tap ...... Fat Willy's you are off my list of places to go
Review Source:I was driving home and thinking hey, it's Friday, it's afternoon and it's a holiday weekend - where can I go? The Yelp mobile app said Fat Willy's was close by and like Toucan Sam, I followed my nose...or at least my iPhone.
The bar had plenty of spacing and I was impressed with the layout when I entered. The bar had several seats and there were multiple televisions directly behind the bar as well as each side. There were a few guys at the bar, just hanging out with a friend or two and enjoying a few brews and sports. They all seemed to know the place and it was a good atmosphere. The bartender was cool and asked me what I wanted to drink, as well as ran down the happy hour prices. $4 for a large beer sounded good. I went with the Coastal Wheat. The glass was a monster - I asked a lady there how big the classes were and she said 25 oz - but I swear it was bigger (guys always think it's bigger)....
But I digress...$4 for the monster beer and $4 for a 10 piece wings. I ordered the 'hot" and to be honest, it wasn't that hot. They had a good flavor and came with blue cheese...After I nearly completed my second beer I decided to visit the men's room. When I turned around, I was again surprised. I thought it was just the bar and the room, and that the restroom was around the corner - no - there was a long hallway with more seating, and I noticed outdoor seating. I finally made it to the bathroom - Hello, Elvis on the door. When I returned, I asked what the draught beer on the end was - the bartender indicated it was a yet to be named amber beer. He said a contest will be had to name it and offered a taste in the cutest little mug. I tasted it and well, it didn't blow my skirt up. I would name it ho-hum, but that's just me. This time I went cheap and hit the $3 Miller Lite in the same 25oz mug. Nice!
All in all, it was a good adventure to Fat Willy's - and what a name :-) This would definitely be a place I would be a repeat offender at if I lived closer. Tons of space and televisions, good happy hour prices and a nice, attentative wait staff.
This place was ok.
Not great, and not bad because of their cheap drinks and Happy Hour 7 days a week! Â That is always a bonus. Â
2-7 or 2-6 not sure. Â The sign on the front door says 2-7, but their menus inside state 2-6? Â
$3 drinks
$4 apps
$2 domestic pints
$3 large drafts (large)
$3 import pints
$4 large (large) Â except for Guiness, which everybody failed to tell me. Â I even specifically asked about the imports, and nobody said "except Guiness"
I had the spin/artichoke dip, and it was good for $4, not the best ever, but decent.
The service at the bar was very bad. Â the 3 girls behind the bar didn't pay any attention too us, we were sitting at the bar!
They do not have any tv's on their smoking patio, but at least they have a smoking patio with sound. Â
They have lots of really nice big flat screen tv's.
Nice enough place, but bad service, great drinks/tv's.
That was my first time there on Sunday, so things were busy for football, and I don't know how new the bartenders were, but I've bartended before, and I go to bars alot, and maybe I just can't stress how out of it these girls were.
Oh, and they have a bloody mary bar on Sunday mornings/afternoon with $3 Smirnoff, but by the time we got there (3pm) all the condiments had been raveged, and the only mixer they have is Clamato? Â (Lame)
Good enough place to go watch sports games. Â
I will def go there again, and update if things change.
Their website notes all the daily specials and Happy Hour info, but they don't have a way to contact them on their site, as I was going to let them know of the poor service I received.
