“ This is the best place to relax and hang out while you eat some really good food. The food and atmosphere are A but it's the servers that make this place the neighborhood hangout that's tough to pass on the way home. If you've never been, you gotta try it. You won't be disappointed. ”

“ Great atmosphere, friendly staff, the BEST WINGS !! Our waitress Hannah was absolutely amazing, we are not locals she recommended the honey Cajun wings. I’ll be craving those for the rest of my life. Definitely a must when you’re in Tampa area! ”

“ THE quintessential locals hangout. Great place to watch football, and the food is well above average. Bartenders know what's up and hustle their off. Prob the best wings I've ever had! Semi parking out front too if you're creative, but you better get out early before the parking lot fills up. ”

“ While visiting the Tampa area, my boyfriend and I were searching for some late night eats. When we walked into Uncle Fat's, it was exactly the vibe we were going for! Wings were awesome & all the little games in there were fun as well! Our bartender Nikki was a delight. She made great shots, & was very personable. (even after watching her deal with a VERY difficult customer that thinks extra crispy chicken wings take 10 minutes LOL) The atmosphere, the fun clientele, the food & Nikki will absolutely have us coming back next time we are in town. ”

“ Great cheers, kind of vibe. Non-smoking. Excellent wings. Great atmosphere. Superb service. Wonderful place to watch the games on a Sunday afternoon. We will definitely be back. ”

“ We really enjoyed the food here. The service was fast and the staff was friendly. ”

“ Staying at a nearby hotel and came for dinner on a Saturday evening. There was no wait, but the whole place was bustling. Our server Hannah was outstanding, more than once I noticed the full team coordinated to serving guests. Verbal communication between, servers, bar and kitchen was audible, respectful and efficient. Hannah recommended wings or the burgers, I opted for the burger. When I saw an order of wings come out I thought I may have chosen wrong however the burger was spectacular and Cooke a perfect medium rare. I added the hand battered onion rings for a great compliment to the meal. My son had a cheesesteak, equally excellent. It is evident this is a place the locals frequent, however coming in as an out of town guest, the service made me feel like one of them. ”

“ Driven by a powerful desire for fried mushrooms, I found myself searching online for "fried mushrooms near me," prioritizing a local and laid-back spot. This search led me to discover Uncle Fat's Tavern, tucked away in a modest strip mall. Entering the tavern, I was immediately washed over with a sense of nostalgia. The atmosphere was dim yet animated, clearly a favorite among the locals. The bar was lined with "good ole boys and gals," and tables were filled with lively conversations. The bartender, perfectly loud in a way that added to the charm, effortlessly engaged with patrons while skillfully managing drinks. Our waitress, reminiscent of the sweet, hometown heroines from Hallmark romance movies, took our order for two unsweetened teas and a basket of fried mushrooms, enhancing the nostalgic experience. The tavern buzzed with genuine interactions, a refreshing scene where cellphones were nowhere in sight. Through the kitchen's expo window, the chef's joy and engagement were visible, adding to the welcoming ambiance. When the mushrooms arrived, they were a sight to behold: a generous basket of hand-battered delights. The mushrooms were flawlessly prepared - the breading was light, crisp, and perfectly seasoned without being greasy. Our craving was thoroughly satisfied, leaving us eager to become regulars at this charming local spot. ”
