    Fat heads is like one of the best breweries in northeast Ohio. The building looks incredibly deceptive from the outside, but it’s huge when you walk in with plenty of seating. They also have an area with some arcade games and such to play while you’re waiting on your food and drinks. They have a huge selection of beers so if you like doing flights, you will not be disappointed. Their food is always incredible. I love their headwiches, burgers, nachos, smoked wings, and beer battered onion rings. The fries that come with the burgers and headwiches are the best you’ve ever had. Also, I eat their killer ranch sauce with everything! It’s so good!! Also, if you’re drinking beer and want to eat something super hydrating, then you have to try their shrooms- they have such a lovely light as air breading that almost encases water. It’s incredible with their horseradish sauce and we love our usual the -killer ranch.

    We had a good experience at Fat Heads. Our server was very nice and explained things when we had questions. The food arrived hot with everything we asked for. The beers were great and refreshing. The atmosphere is really neat around the bar and entrance. Towards the back it feels a little less special with views right into the prep area with views of employees snacking and talking from the booth we sat at but didn’t take away from the overall experience. Perhaps some swinging doors would help there. Overall I will be back and recommend as a fun brew pub!

    Nate was our server on Saturday night and he was amazing! Very attentive and gave great recommendations on beer and food. Do yourself a favor and get the pepper jack bites! Can’t wait to come back!

    Table of 8...celebrating a birthday. We were told an hour wait...waited 15 min, at most. Our server was awesome & accommodating. Everyone's food was fantastic. Great selection of top-notch beers. Still a favorite spot for me.

    We were seated a little before 7 on Sunday 1/23, we left after about 30 minutes without a server coming around. We tried to wave someone down but no one came over. We tried to call the host stand and no one answered. Love the beer and the food at the other locations, it's a shame we didn't get to have any here tonight.

    This restaurant is consistently a 10/10 experience from start to finish. I have yet to be as impressed and highly satisfied with any other restaurant, and I mean that genuinely! For starters, the menu is spectacular. I have yet to be disappointed by anything I’ve ordered, and I try something new each visit. As if elevated takes on typical bar food wasn’t enough to impress, the verbiage itself is presented with witty, exciting descriptions. I laughed literally out loud at one of the burger’s descriptions. Get the pepper jack bites!!! Just thank me later. I also would like to take a moment to express how unbelievably delicious the whole wings were. I frequently order wings when dining out and these by far are the top/best chicken wings that I’ve ever eaten.

    Awesome food, awesome service, and got seated in less than 15 minutes on a Friday evening. Really wanted to try the Bankers Hours English Ale but they had just ran out so I tried the Fresh Hop Freddy as I wanted a lighter beer with my burger. Every Fat Head beer has been solid, and the food is equally impressive. Ordered meat medium well and it was somewhere between medium and medium well but I was not at all disappointed. I would gladly come here again when I'm in the area and next time try their pierogis and the smoked wings. Reasonable amount of parking too.

    Nice place to hang out with a ton of great beer selection! The food was mediocre though, my open face brisket sandwich was lukewarm at best smothered with canned gravy. The meat itself tasted boiled, no smoke flavor at all.

  • 5/5 Catsandtats6 5 months ago on Google
    Great food, fried mushrooms are huge! I got the pierogies as my main course, even though they’re technically an appetizer, portions are big enough.

  • 5/5 Tami A. 8 months ago on Google
    The food was fantastic. We ordered the fried mushrooms and it was a very large order. The waiter was a wonderful server. They had these cute coasters. We will be back again and again.

  • 4/5 El R. 5 months ago on Google
    We don't live anywhere near this place so we try to make special trips. We took our son for his first visit and loved the fries. The beer is great; always a variety to select from. They didn't have Bonehead Red this time. They should just keep that on tap always. No food from the menu will let you down though.

  • 5/5 Michael Z. 6 months ago on Google
    In my opinion, this is the best brewery in Ohio. While you might want to come in for the Bumble Berry, do yourself a favour and try the Crumble berry as well. If you are feeling adventurous, ask the bartender to do a half and half of bumble and crumple. They are not supposed to do that, but it worked for me:) Just like everyone else says, the mushrooms are a must. Extremely generous portion, good enough for 2 or even 3 people. Get the ranch as well as the horseradish. Double-dip'em and you will find bliss. Keep up the great works guys!

    Love Fatheads. The Shrooms she amazing and crispy without being overdone. I had the Mishroom Swiss Burger and it was done perfectly with a slight bit of pink in the middle. It was just as ordered. Lively atmosphere, great service and the Crumble Berry Beer was just the right blend of fruit and hops.

    Great brewery. Food and beer are excellent. Portions are MASSIVE come hungry. Service was great. Plenty of seating and a nice bar. Highly recommend checking out if you’re in the area!

  • 5/5 Simran S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really amazing place! Loved the collection they had. Nice environment. Oh and fries are amazing here!! Nice and thick

  • 4/5 Anne G. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was tasty. Beer was good, got Charley's Chocolate Stout. Wish the patio was open .. they deemed it too chilly, but it wasn't. Maybe next time.

  • 4/5 Deborah W. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a very delicious Mighty Fine Bovine sandwich that was a February special. We also tried the whole wings which were ok but not worth the expense. The nachos were good too. I recall that the price of wings was very high these days due to supply issues and I'm sure that is why they are priced so high and use the whole wing. So, I can't hold it against them but I can tell YOU that you may want to hold off.

  • 5/5 Prajakatta M. 2 years ago on Google
    Although not a beer fan, I must say their draft list is amazing. Bumbleberry Lemonade made out of Ale was fantastic! The wing sizes are huge, almost twice that of regular! I had the twisted brisket sandwich that was super juicy. Super chill place for Friday evening drinks.

  • 5/5 Kristen B. 2 years ago on Google
    WOW. Service was fantastic, drinks were phenomenal, and the food was out of this world delicious. I got pierogi and a brisket sandwich (🤤) and it was incredible. My coworkers got the kielbasa and pierogi sandwich ; they were blown away! Absolutely will come back when I’m in the area; I’ve been telling everyone to come here!

  • 3/5 Mr. W. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited 8/29/22 Initial reaction is this place will be amazing, but this is simply not the case. Arrived - 3:15 server greeted us- 3:24 Drinks delivered - 334p Appetizers / food ordered - 3:43 Appetizers arrived - 3:57 *had to ask for plates to eat… LOL Food Arrived - 4:11pm Asked for ketchup / Mayo - 4:11 Got condiments - 4:14 Had to ask for refills Finished eating - 4:24p Check - 4-28p BBQ sauce tastes vinegary. Honey BBQ sauce is not good either. Pulled pork “beauty and the sissy” has a bunch of gristle.” - it’s season like breakfast sausage. It’s spicy hot. **side note we aren’t at a bbq restaurant we’re at a brewery. I had the Cod fish n chips - but the fish didn’t have any flavor. Better get it deep fried rather than grilled. Bacon cheeseburger was over cooked but we did ask for it to be well done. Face masks worn by all servers and staff we could see. Bathrooms are clean We did buy a growler as we were leaving and the bottled leaked. You’d think the lids would keep the liquid in. The food here might taste good if you’re drunk. The nachos and frys were amazing! About all they had going for them. The root beer tasted well… good luck on that. I didn’t like the after taste.

    Saturday evening the wait was 30-45 minutes. We still ended up having to wait even though we called well ahead. Burgers and fries were good. Server kept up even though the place was busy. Their were a few obnoxious drunks seated around us including one who was about to fight a server. The chairs are wood with no cushion and makes your butt hurt really bad if you sit on them for too long.
