Fat Hippo Birmingham in Birmingham

Great burgers and great service! Our server Russ was lovely and very helpful.

We came a bit early for the atmosphere to be busy but the food was great and the service was lovely. I'm coeliac and the options were fab! Thank you :)

This place is brilliant & one of the better burger places I've been too. But it just doesn't hit the same as its counterpart in Newcastle. The newcastle was is its origin so probably explains why. They cater for gluten allergies which is good. Selection of drinks is limited. Staff slightly unprofessional at this specific branch. Would go for vapes outside the front door during service. Still recommend it though if you're not bothered about the bad things mentioned above!

Really good, quick service for a cheap night out to celebrate a birthday.

Had an absolutely amazing time, Russ the manager was so attentive and a lovely personality. Will definitely be back!

Good, we like Dru! Very good service

Great food and service from Russ and the team! Can’t wait to come back again and try more of the burgers!

Loved the experience and food! Staff are really helpful with allergies and food quality is amazing! Thank you!

Warm atmosphere, friendly stuff, big portions. Very fast service on busy Saturday afternoon.

Lovely service from Julia she gave us very good recommendations! Will definitely come back

Very poor dining experience. We sat down and ordered our food, the starters arrived quite quickly (which I’m not complaining about) but before we had finished them they brought over our main and was going to take our starter away. I had ordered one of the burgers with chicken and beef, they had forgot the chicken. This was resolved quite quickly. Once we had finished our mains they were then straight back to the table to see if we wanted desert, to which I said not at the moment thankyou (give us a few minutes we may have thought about it). They then bring the bill over without us asking for it (guess we’re not having anything else then), I went to the toilet and whilst I was away they brought the card machine over to my partner, again without any prompt. I feel like the main owners/managers working were quite rude and just wanted to get as many people in and out as possible to make as much money as they could, if your not prepared to have people sit in your restaurant and have a couple of drinks, a starter as a starter, followed by the main even a few mins after you take the plates from their starters away, just stick to a takeaway!

Best burgers in Birmingham, got to try if nearby

Really great experience, excellent food! Really quick service !

Literally the best breakfast burger I’ve had and the service was second to none!

I came out especially to try the burgers and was not disappointed. Great food, flavoursome and a decent price compared to other burger restaurants I have visited. Friendly service and a decent little place.

An unexpected visit resulted in a unexpected, and amazing, lunch. Who knew that peanut butter works on a burger! Will definitely return next time I'm in Birmingham

10/10 Food 10/10 Service 10/10 place :)

The wings are amazing, I would go again 😊

The wings and fries were amazing, I would go again

The Hans Gruber-her was the best burger I have ever had in my entire life!!

My second time here and it did not disappoint! Great food and great service from Marta, such friendly and helpful staff! Cant wait to visit again

It was very good, great service too

Marta was such a lovely waitress! So full of energy! Food was amazing and we had a shot at the end called snow job which was ok.

Marta was lovely and the burger was delicious

Fantastic food. Amazing service - really friendly staff and super efficient!!

Best burgers. Super friendly service. Kind to loners 😃

Big burgers but vet bland no seasoning on the beef burgers or the chicken burgers very greasy especially the onion rings

What a fella Dhruv is! Sorted me & the misses out with a proper burger!!!! Yum ;)

Amazing burger and fries. Fast service.

Thank you so much for this wonderful meal and to Russ for serving us so well!

Staff were lovely, food was great :)

Amazing breakfast baps lovely service

Marta’s service was great, very friendly and efficient.

Great lunch deal- service was excellent 👌🏻

Served by Marta, she was friendly and attentive and gave a good experience!

Don’t come here!…. Me and my partner got really bad food poisoning…. Still recovering after 4 days of being really ill:( If your restaurant sees this I want to put a complaint and get a refund!

we had a lovely time, food was amazing, service was great

First time coming, was fantastic service. Really fast, really friendly. Debi was amazing! Would definitely recommend 👍🏼

Martha the manager was amazing! Service 10 out of 10

Staff very rude and slow , food quality very poor

Lovely food and great service 🤩

Kind hosts, and very nice food for decent prices :)

It was my first visit here with some work colleagues and the food was great! The veg members of our party had also options for meat-free burgers which tasted fantastic. Thank you Simon for great service.

Visited Fat Hippo in Birmingham! The burgers are huge and delicious, and they’ve got awesome vegetarian options too. The onion rings? Massive and insanely good! Even though we didn’t have a reservation and the place was packed, they still let us in, and took great care of us. Thank you Szymon!Definitely a must-try!

Fat Hippo is a must-visit for burger lovers! The menu is packed with delicious, inventive options and sides that are just as tasty as the mains. Everything is cooked to perfection, and you can feel the attention to detail in every bite. The vibe is super relaxed and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to chill with friends. Special mention to Szymon, the manager, who really made our visit memorable. He’s friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about making sure everyone has a great experience. His recommendations were spot on, and his team is just as awesome. Can’t recommend this place enough if you’re after amazing food and great service!

Had fat hippo a while ago, the food was amazing. The service was great and special Debi our server for the night was really amazing and very energetic. I do recommend people to go and grab a plate.

The vegan burgers are brilliant! The staff were really attentive, we had a lovely meal

Ordered the chicken burger, 2 bites in realised the chicken was undercooked. We had told the manager who told us its not undercooked that's just how the chicken is as it is a big piece. After breaking it down and it still being pink in the middle we had told her again and she proceeded to be defensive about it. I know if her herself had ordered it and it came like that she would not be happy about it. We was not offered a replacement and had to ask to get it taken off the bill. If you come here would only reccomend the beef burger.

Service by Russ was lovely, friendly and quick. Food was good, fries were very tasty!

Tasty food and wonderful service from Marta and delicious milkshake from Simon!

Best burger in over 2 years thumbs up from Brad means it’s legit

It was amazing and I loved it. Great food. I’m so stuffed x

Had a wonderful evening, staff were incredibly friendly and service was super quick. Food was so tasty, will definitely come back.

Astoundingly good burger, perfect fries, friendly staff .... they nailed it!

Food was amazing. The cheese balls were a highlight. Will definitely come again when I'm in the area.

This was an AMAZING experience from start to finish. The burger was as delectable as it could have been, and the waffle fries were to die for! Will definitely be returning here with my hubby again.

Lady who I met when coming to the restaurant was very friendly and very helpful. Great customer service experience.

worst service ever….Ignoring the customer for whole time …..？？？？？？？？？？？？？？！！！！！！！！！？？

WOW. What can I say about this place. Such perfection in all ways. Service was quick and personable, and the food was out of this world. This place blew me away!!! Would definitely recommend. Me and my wife are two happy customers 👍

I called to go there 40 mins prior to showing up asking for a reservation. The manager told me you can just walk in and it should be fine. After I did, she totally refused to accept her response. She ended up letting other customers in and shut the door on me and my partner!

Great place, friendly staff deffo recommend

Always a great burger here. Look out for the specials on their Instagram, I just had a Halloween burger with a green bun and it was delicious! The staff are great too, despite it being ridiculously busy on a Saturday night, you always get quick service with a smile.

Amazing food. Had vegan burger which was well seasoned. If you're looking for a good meal that will keep you full for hours this is a place to go! Highly recommended fried pickles! Our server- Jing- was lovely and efficient.

Still looking for a ‘fantastic’ burger spot in the UK and this came VERY VERY close to matching what I had while living in SA. I rate a burger in its simplest form, and the American did it for me. Hit the spot… tasty and uncomplicated. Patties were a slight touch dry, but were delicious. Fries were perfect… just the way I like them. Will definitely be back to take on one of the more complex creations. Damn… I’m drooling already. Wife loved her meal too, so confirmed return customers.

Really nice food. Prices are decent and the staff were very pleasant. The aethetic of the decor is very stylish. Would come again.

Food was great, tater tots and fried pickles were fantastic! Our server, Jing, was efficient, checked in on us, and made us feel very welcomed.

Very nice burger, great fries to go with. Staff are lovely and friendly.

Visited here for breakfast, which is apparently a new offering. The choice was great, and the food was incredible. Wish we had space for a pancake, but no chance! Definitely worth a visit. Our server was Russ who was amazing.

Fantastic efficient service, the staff were lovely and the food was delicious

The food? Delicious. The atmosphere? Warm and oh my god the drinks? So goooood. Definitely a place worthy of revisiting.

Come for the food and stay for the vibes honestly. Everything was so delicious and the staff was so sweet I am definitely coming over and over again

Fast service and good food for quick lunch from Russ and team. £8.50 deal is great

the new indian guy is amazing he is like valverde in UEFA .EVERYWHERE

Russ is a hands-on manager who truly looks after his customers. Excellent food, great ambience and good prices. Recommended!

our first time visiting this weekend and it was very disappointing. the service was poor, we were asked if we could leave at 6pm before we were even sat at our table, we booked for 5:15pm. the wait for food was very long, after asking where our food was we received it at 6pm, we felt very rushed to leave and was asked by the waiter if we wanted the bill as soon as our plates were taken. she brought the card machine over realised she forgot to give us our bill and printed one from the card machine. we was never asked for anymore rounds of drinks or deserts! after emailing fat hippo about our issues they have not responded to help further than asking for proof of payment

Juicy and flavourful burgers, fries are definitely cooked to perfection & well seasoned. They are also generous with their portions, you definitely get your money’s worth here.

Amazing burgers!!!!!! Klaudia was amazing :) will be back again soon!

Delicious food as always and the service was top quality. Both Klaudias were lovely and couldn't do enough for you

Best burgers in Birmingham? Barely the best burgers on Bennett's Hill. Everything was just incredibly greasy. Burger patties were a bit over cooked, starter portions way too big and just grease grease grease. Drinks were overpriced and took ages to arrive considering the restaurant was half full and all we ordered were cans of beer. Service was just a bit slow, food just left us feeling bloated. A poor replacement for Buffalo & Rye!

food was incredible and everything was fab! thank you to our server Klaud!

Fantastic Service by Russ. Will call again

Klaud gave us such great service! Prompt and kind 10/10. The tater tots were delicious, too!

Great burgers as always! Very impressed with Klaud, excellent service, very attentive - made it a great experience!

Klaudia was amazing. Nice good value burgers and shakes.

Klaud was very friendly & service was very fast. She was also very patient as I was very indecisive haha!!

Don’t waste your money, the chicken felt chewy and boiled and covered in cheap, flavourless batter, the pancakes were flat and lifeless. We wanted waffle fries or thick cut chips and both were sold out

Just tried the new breakfast menu at Fat Hippo - was so good! Definitely going to make this our new breakfast spot. 100% recommend the Hash Rounds and Pancakes! Also unlimited tea and coffee is a huge win!

Phenomenal burger, my girlfriend had one of the veggie burgers and she thought it was great too

The food is so delicious and the service is exelent

nice and cozy place to eat out with your friends or family

Came here for the first time today after wanting to try it for ages and it’s absolutely amazing! The burgers are so so nice and very filling. I’ve had to take it home with me because i couldn’t finish it Best burgers I’ve had in a while!!! The atmosphere is very chill and quiet which I loved because I have bad anxiety, so I was able to relax and enjoy my food !!! , the service was very good and welcoming we got served by Russ who was very helpful and polite. Will most definitely be coming back !!, I will be recommending this place to people. What we had - frickles 8/10 - wild bill beef burger with a side of dirty style tater tots 10/10 - the American beef burger with fries 10/10

The atmosphere is lovely and the service is brilliant and very quick. Marta was outstanding host.

Very good burgers and lovely staff! Good locations and easy to find the place big burgers !! We will be back!………………………..

Bad burger experience along with terrible service. Several of our orders were incorrect. We were waiting over 40 minutes for our order to be told, when asked twice, each burger takes 40 mins (something we weren't told on arrival). I ordered the American Burger, no pickles with loaded fries and specifically asked for no bacon (due to religious reasons). I received my order, the fries were dry and on top the burger was overcooked and dry also. It tasted as if thw burgers had been precooked and then warmed up for service as the meat was tight and dense. In addition, my fries had bacon crumbs on the bottom, and when I mentioned this, the staff seemed very uninterested in how bad this is for me. Very underwhelming meal and would not recommend.

First time visitors from Portsmouth. Greeted with a smile and a lovely atmosphere. Burgers were absolutely on point, delicious and juicy. Cannot fault it at all. Recommended!

Amazing vegan options, generous sides and great service (thanks Grace)!

Excellent meal and one of the best burgers my Dad ever had!

So the food is good no doubt, but the service is very middling, which is a shame because everything else is fine. We got a takeout to go from there and staff felt they were trying to rush us to order quickly and then they got parts of the order wrong.

Really enjoyed eating here - food is great and reasonably priced. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good burger and fries!
