Fat Dan's Deli

How did I not know about this hidden jam in IU? I passed by this place so many times and really didn’t know that inside is this big. Restaurant really tried to make it look like you are walking into a restaurant in Chicago. Loved their food and home cut fries. I will be a regular here for sure when I visit IU from now on.

Great place to grab a bite, drink a couple of beers and watch a game. 2nd time coming here. Service was good both times. Good selection on draft. Dirty Tots are a must! Really cool asthetics to Fat Dan's as well.

I stopped in yesterday as I was passing through and ordered the French Dip.
Worst sandwich I've ever had.
It was so bad that I contemplated
calling the police and pressing charges.
Instead of serving it on crispy bread and you dip each bite, they dip the entire sandwich and serve you this disgusting soggy, terribly messy sandwich. I took one bite and was really turned off by all of the herbs. A French Dip shouldn't taste like herbs, it's should be crispy not soggy.
I took on bite and left, I might as well have flushed that $12 down the toilet.
The staff was nice, but my server knew I hated the sandwich and couldn't eat it but she made no effort to make it right.

Amazing sandwiches! Had the East Coast Submarine. (Italian sub) packed full of meat and cheese. Fresh tomatoes and lettuce. Delicious! Didn't eat in, but like a typical college bar pub inside. Nice staff.

Five stars! Fat Dan's Deli in Bloomington is a must-visit. The beer selection is fantastic, and KJ went above and beyond by bringing us a round of samples to make sure we found something we loved. The grilled chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, pickle, and mayo was perfectly made, and while I wish I could have subbed the chips, it was totally worth it. The smoked wings were also top-notch. If you're looking for great food and excellent service, I highly recommend Fat Dan's!

All I can say is the food is great great and greater and they have the best chicken wings on the planet

Parking: It's in the downtown area Bloomington so sometimes parking can be a challenge but it is well worth it to be able to eat the great food at fat Dan's

Wheelchair accessibility: Saw some people with walkers and wheelchair I don't use either of them so I really didn't notice how easy it was they do have a ground-level door that they can go right in
