Tucked in Seattle's Central District, Fat's Chicken and Waffles serves delicious Southern comfort food, with standout dishes like honey-butter chicken biscuits and crispy chicken and waffles that keep locals coming back for more.
"Brunch can be a way to enjoy something you might not have every morning, like crusty herb-loaded fried chicken on top of thin waffles slathered in Hennessy-infused butter. That’s why we love Fat’s in the Central District. There’s something about the way that their sweet syrup swirls with bits of fallen breading and a bracing cognac bite that just improves a Saturday or Sunday. Reserve the sad bowlful of stale cereal for Monday through Friday." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"If you’re having a dumpster fire of a day, go to Fat’s. And even if you’re not, let’s pretend that you’re really torn up about your Roomba accidentally hurling itself down your stairs. Hennessy-infused butter is one of the better waffle toppings we’ve tried, and Fat’s is where to find it. Both the butter and a stack of waffles taste really good with the herby fried chicken, but make sure you order at least one thing with andouille gravy." - aimee rizzo, lidiya belete, kayla sager riley
"The stars at this Central District favorite are the honey butter chicken biscuit sandwich and the restaurant’s namesake sampler, with two pieces of chicken served alongside fried green tomatoes, cheese grits, and garlic toast. Brunch is popular and the restaurant can feel hectic, but the warm service and fantastic food are worth it." - Sophie Grossman, Eater Staff
"The main events at this Central District favorite are the honey butter chicken biscuit sandwich and the restaurant’s namesake sampler, with two pieces of chicken served alongside fried green tomatoes, cheese grits, and garlic toast. Fat’s is open for takeout, and dine-in service includes its enormously popular brunch." - Eater Staff, Jade Yamazaki Stewart
"We’re not the only ones who love Fat’s, which means sometimes they’re too busy to deliver (be sure to check their website before you order). But if you want your football feast to be in the form of crispy battered chicken, waffles with Hennessy butter, pimento cheese poutine, and fried seafood sandwiches, there’s no better place to order from. And since they’re open for weekend brunch and dinner, it’s a great option to get whether the game’s on at 10am or 5pm." - aimee rizzo
