About

Fat Hippo’s exposed-brick dining room serves stacked US-style burgers, with a separate vegan menu that reviewers say includes four burgers, fries, shakes and desserts. It’s a casual, family-friendly choice for a filling meal; several reviewers praise the generous portions and helpful staff, though one recent customer reported a poor response after questioning whether their burger was vegan.
