Living large at Fat Cat!

Fat Cat Burgers & Bakeshop is a cozy, welcoming dining and bakery concept conceived by Fran Scibelli, the Charlotte restaurateur behind Metropolitan Bakery and Café and, most recently, Fran’s Filling Station in Dilworth.

Fran is channeling her energy and good vibes into this fun, friends and family-friendly neighborhood eatery and bakery. And you don’t have to look far to find it – it’s in the same spot previously occupied by Fran’s Filling Station.

While you will still find many of the old favorites here - California burgers, Chop Chop salads & Bacon-wrapped tater tots, you will also find new items like Warm Brussels Spout Dip, the vegan Green & Grain Salad and the decadent Fat Franny, a burger or fried chicken breast sndwiched between a house made maple bacon donut!!

Fat Cat also serves 9 local beers are on tap, as well as a small but interesting wine selection, local coffee and nitro cold brew and a full bar with seasonal cocktail list. craft The donuts change daily at our walk-up donut window. And a kids’ menu includes plenty of old (and new) favorites.

So no matter your tastes, Fat Cat has a little something for everyone. We’re easy to find – just follow the aroma of fresh-baked bread and cookies!!
