This is a classic in Midtown, but after a couple trips, I can see why I was warned to not go. Fats has a history of dangerous occurrences, including many incidents of drinks getting spiked and sending students to the hospital. The bar is 21+ with a $10 cover, but anyone underage who pays the bouncer $20 can get in. Once you are in, there is no shoulder room since they pack it to the brim. The floor is sticky, so wear shoes you don't care about. That said, it is a good place to have a good time, but for me is more of a one and done.

12 year old bouncer upstairs is a tool bag and should watch himself

One star only because I have to put a rating. Came in and the women's bathrooms where absolutely disgusting. First of all I slipped on the drain in the women's bathroom. All the toliets were filled with mold and piss.I asked the bouncer where I could use the mens bathroom and he told me to go pee In the parking lot ( and they told I would be kicked out immediately) a hour or two went by and I asked the security outside if I could use the restroom at a restaurant/bar near by and they also told me I wouldn't be allowed back in, after telling them the bouncer said I would have to pee in the parking lot they told me that's my only option ( still not being allowed back in afterwards) they told me that's my only option. I asked the bartender for napkins because I couldn't hold it any longer and they told me if it's for the restroom then there's a ally way I could go to to " relief myself". Don't waste your time coming here. It's fucking disgusting and the customer service is absolutely awful. I've never felt more disrespected in my entire life. I'm contacting the better business burrows in the morning to report this bar immediately. The owner should be ashamed to be apart of a establishment like this.

I've been coming here for 11 years now, back when i graduated in 2012 this place had just opened and I have loved it since then.

You should not let people you know skip the line. Unfair. Come on. Be fair.

One of my family members was drugged by the bartenders while celebrating a birthday party. They quickly got her out of the bar once she starting reacting to the drugs. Be careful, according to the local college kids this happens all the time. Bartenders are the ones doing it to take advantage of getting money from the kids once they black out.

Owner doesn’t understand that affect of Covid on small business. It’s a shame. Take your money elsewhere.

This place is a dangerous, hostile environment. On Saturday 12/11/21 the low-life bouncers literally kicked people out by beating them up and sending one guy to the hospital with a broken cheekbone - mind you, it wasn’t even 2am (official closing time) yet and no one was causing any trouble.The owner should be held liable and the bouncers should be criminally charged for what they did to all the patrons that night.

if i could give this place no stars I would. The bouncers threatened to kill my cousin, and the environment is hostile. stay away. this place is full of minors drinking and if the staff harasses and is extremely violent with all customers including women. only come here if you have a death wish.

Criminals. No brains and no heart. Stay away from this place. The bouncers have far in their brain cells and will be in jail by 2022!!! Good luck there and don't drop the soap!!!

We have been waiting in the line for 30 minutes with no movement. They will only let in people from the "express" $20 line. None accepted from the regular $5 line. How incredibly disappointing and embarrassing.
