Fat Hippo - Newcastle upon Tyne

I was so impressed with this restaurant! The food was incredibly delicious and came out quickly. The overall experience was smooth and rated a 10/10. We started with Trash Browns and VGN Wachos, both of which arrived shortly after our drinks. The Trash Browns, in particular, were amazing with their liquid cheese topping. The Candy Floss Cocktail was a unique treat with layers of flavor. The burgers were also fantastic, but we were too full after the starters to finish them. The hand-cut chips were a nice touch, seasoned with Cajun spices. The menu had a dedicated vegan section, and most items could be made vegan if desired. The staff were busy but managed to accommodate everyone as best as they could. Despite the hustle, they seemed content and attentive. The restaurant had a cozy underground vibe with good lighting and exposed brick walls. We sat by an old fireplace, which added to the ambiance. The waiters were efficient and helpful, even providing takeaway boxes upon request. There were multiple stairs, so it may not be wheelchair-friendly, but there could be another entrance. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I look forward to returning.

Tempered by the menu for this place, as the photos looked crazy! The food delivered exactly how the pictures saw, but maybe we were not hungry enough, as both meals seemed excessive! The taste and quality were great, but after a while everything felt too greasy. The salad wedge, although a simple product was absolutely delicious and necessary to cut the rest! Go but make sure you have an appetite

Amazing burgers, excellent service by team (although managers who sat us did not seem too happy about it). Also a shake, can't wait for the Glasgow location. We were a group of 11 on Saturday 12 February.

Great! Delicious burgers so juicy fresh....big drinks shake, in quirky surroundings, scream on our server David! Looked us really good was very friendly! Can't wait to return:

Me and my husband visited today on the recommendation of my niece, her husband and 13 year old daughter. We are so pleased we came, it was my husband's Birthday. Food was very tasty, best onion rings ever! We were advised before we came not to order starters and we were pleased we didn't. If we'd had starters I don't think we would have finished our main meal which would have been a shame. Waiters are very pleasant and do not hassle you when ordering. Loved everything about the place nd we will certainly return.
