This place was always our favourite place to eat in Witney so we were shocked to find how much this place has gone down in the past few months. Awful awful service.

I've been coming to fat lils and rave about this place so much in my personal life that I thought iy was about time I popped a review on. I've been to their live music and tribute events which have such a good atmosphere. The comedy nights are a wonderful chance to have a chuckle and tickets are so affordable. Staff are always lovely, efficient and nothing is too much trouble. Both the food and drinks menu offer a wide range and are great value. In fact, I think they could charge more for the quality and portion size you get. The woodfired pizzas are some of the best my family and I have eaten. Their Mexican offerings are the best in Oxfordshire (albeit the competition the Mexican food is smal and lacklustre!) I even asked what corn tortillas they used as they definitely weren't your average mission burrito. Everything is freshly made to order and can be accommodated to diffrent preferences and requirements. The vibe is beyond great, everyone is always smiley and having a chilled time with music playing that is never too loud to enjoy a conversation. I will continue to keep socialising, drinking and eating here as long as these guys are around. If you're visiting witney for a short break or looking for a good night out, don't waste your time elsewhere.

Came here twice last week it was that good. I’ll be honest it’s not the kinda cuisine I go for but what they do they do it really well! Super friendly bar and restaurant staff and extremely dog friendly. Food was lovely we had the wings and the prawns and burritos and tacos all excellent. Food and drink was sensibly priced as well. Good music and atmosphere. There is also a function room next door owned by the same people, and they have live music and comedy nights Can’t wait to go again

Had a few dishes that really hit the spot. Witney are lucky to have a Tex mex place. Quesadillas were good size just the chicken chorizo needed some peppers and onions to lift the taste. Nachos nice touch with the jalapeños but would be nice to have the option of chilli or chicken Buffalo wings were my fav! Crispy and tangy missing a dip to go with it recommend blue cheese dip. Perfect latte served by your barrista xx

We were part of a far larger group booked in for the adjacent function room on a Saturday evening. Assembling early ourselves and another couple booked a table to eat before the proceedings... well, oh my days - 4 completely different dishes all arrived together, with a side and everything was cooked to perfection. We really did have service with a smile, and that was from all the staff who obviously enjoyed their work. I cannot recommend this place highly enough - we're a tough crowd at the best of times and we arrived hungry!

I visited here with my husband and my Mother-in-Law for a mid-week lunch. We have eaten here before but not for a few years. It doesn't have it's own car park but there is on street parking outside. This gets full quite early on though. The venue is just off the high street and all car parking is free in Witney so there are lots of other parking options close by. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We sat inside. Some of the tables outside were occupied with people just having drinks but we were the only table occupied inside. The lunchtime menu is different to the evening one. It is table service. My Mother-in-Law and I both ordered toasties and my husband ordered a burger with a side of tater tots. There was a little wait on the food but nothing too excessive. The toasties were both nice. Nothing amazing, really but nice enough. My husbands burger was quite small but he said it tasted nice. The tater tots were really nice. The waitress didn't offer us additional condiments or ask if we would like anything else so my husband asked for some hot sauce. We were offered branded or the venue's own. He asked for the venue's own, thinking it would be special but he said it wasn't very hot at all. Overall, I think the food tasted nice. Just as a warning though, you get nothing more than you order. So the toastie is simply that with no side salad, crisps etc you would normally expect. The burger is JUST the burger with no chips or anything. So I would suggest ordering sides as I was still really hungry afterwards. The drinks were branded drinks and tap water so can't really go wrong there. The decor is simple but nice. There was music playing and it was decent. The venue has a very 'relaxed' atmosphere. Food is basic but cooked well. The staff are casually dressed and chat amongst themselves. The music is good. It's all very 'hipster'. I wasn't too impressed with the service as I found her quite disinterested. Not rude or anything, just disinterested. That may just be the vibe of the staff who work here though as it had the feel of a music venue that started selling food, rather than a professional restaurant. The toilets are small and felt a bit grubby. Lots of cobwebs and dust. Couldn't figure out how to even turn the trendy taps on in the bathroom so just used my own alcohol gel back at the table. You pay at the bar. They had three plates of scones and pastries on the bar. Two were covered with domes and one was not. It wasn't nice to see a customer up at the bar leaning directly over the uncovered plate to speak to staff. I'm glad I hadn't ordered anything off that plate! The food wasn't cheap. But is pretty standard for Witney which is an expensive place in general. I would definitely visit here again for a gig. And I'd eat food here again if other places in Witney were full or closed. But it wouldn't be top of my choices for dining purely because I was still starving when we left and the portions are small.

Having lived in Witney for 10 years now, we always walked by Fat Lils on our way to somewhere else- it was always too busy, with what looked like a young rowdy crowd inside. However, we finally called in, mid-week, on a very quiet night, we were made very welcome and were pleasantly surprised. Good beer, good value food and very attentive staff. The menu is not extensive, nor fine dining, just honest food-with lots of options for both meat and veg lovers, with a Mexican/American theme, chilli, nachos, burgers, hot dogs, pizza etc it's a great place for a tasty/spicy bite, with a pint. It isn't over priced, has good sized portions and so far on our 4 visits since the summer, has been consistently good. It gets a thumbs up from us, well done guys. It is also dog friendly, so double thumbs up xx

The service was a bit slow because the food took a while to cook but the waitress was lovely. They have cutlery and water on a table for you to help yourself too but it wasn't very clear, perhaps a clearer sign or mention by staff at the beginning of ordering would help that?

This place is a real gem. It's so vibrant, with a great atmosphere. The portions are BIG and the menu is varied. It's a tiny kitchen - quite how they manage it I have no idea! Lots of the food has a twist - chill con carne pizza, hotdogs with trimmings. It's definitely for the younger crowd, and great if you're going into the club for a band/comedy. Above all else the staff are really friendly, and keep the drinks flowing. It helps that they can see every table from the bar - I'd never realised before what a big difference this makes!

I was recently at Fat Lils Bar & Grill for a friends birthday meal, there was 20 of us in total. I have to say what a great experience, from the food to the staff to the venue, everything was top class. With 20 people wanting to order drinks at once it can be busy but the staff were quick and friendly while making us all feel very welcome. The menu is great, varied and reasonably priced, and the portions were generous! Everybody was served at once, again not always easy with a large table. Everybody really enjoyed the night. Although local I do forget it is there, a hidden gem in the town.Would definitely recommend and I will be visiting again soon!Thanks to the Fat Lils Team :)

Was in Fat Lils Bar And Grill celebrating a friends birthday , about 20 of us in all , and I must say what an amazing place it is . From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you are treated to first class service from a young friendly and polite staff. The menu has a good selection and is very well priced and when the food arrives at your table you see just what value for money means. Well done Fat Lils , so called ' bigger and better ' restaurants could learn a lot from you , Mr Spink and family and staff , your getting the job done , thank you for a wonderful dining experience and I can't wait for another visit .

You can tell this venue deals with live music, we only popped in for lunch and the soundtrack that was playing made lunch a very enjoyable experience. The food was very tasty and well presented. Staff were very welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

I've eaten at Fat Lils Bar and Grill in Witney on several occasions and I've NEVER been disappointed, it was therefore time to roll up those experiences into one 5* review! The tagline for the place is 'Dinner, liquor, rock 'n' roll!' and on each front Lils certainly doesn't disappoint. The menu is a fusion of California and Mexican cuisine and that's before you even get to the authentic Italian stone baked pizza menu. Perusing the menu to an eclectic mix of 80s soft rock/90s alternative tunes you'll come across various entertainingly named dishes from the very generous and aptly named 'fat nachos' to the juicy 'Bobby De Niro burger' via pizzas such as 'old smokey' and the formidably spicy 'Hot Meat' - all of which I've had by the way and all of which left me very full and very happy about life! Moving on to drinks, red stripe on tap perfectly complements the cuisine so too does a range of carefully chosen craft beers, Pacifico, Anchor Steam, Lone Star etc. If beer's not your thing, you've got the usual suspects in the wine list as well as a range of cocktails made with fresh ingredients and artfully presented. The Mojito at Lils is damn good and is my personal favourite. Aside from the excellent food and drink, the service from a rock star team of personable and competent staff combined with a 1980s Sunset Strip vibe makes this Independent family run diner a MUST VISIT if you're in Witney or the local area!!

Well, my friends would be surprised that this is ONLY my sixth review of our favourite restaurant in Witney.Haven't been for a while and in our absence we find home made coleslaw, I mean..the most delicious coleslaw, replacing the side salad on some dishes. I could have eaten a whole bowl! I love the Gambas for starter, king prawns in batter with chilli dip. A meal in itself followed by the Robert De Niro Burger (mmm could have name wrong?). A square cut perfectly cooked burger with pizza sauce and garlic mayo and salad within a soft ciabatta bun. That is now my new favourite burger! The food gets tastier with every visit and I love the fact that The Fat Lil's Team work so well together, it shows and you can feel it! Thank you FLT... You work hard and you rock! We love you!In the words of my 12 year old daughter 'Fat Lils is exciting and everyone is always really happy'

Huge portions! Diner type food - burgers, pizza, wings, hot dogs, fries and slaw. Beautifully plated and cooked to order. Happy energetic staff who are enthusiastic and enjoy their jobs. Very short walk through the alley from Wychwood Brewery.

We visited as a family on a Sunday lunch time as the restaurant opened. The main courses arrived and the portion sizes were very generous.The four meals were all well received, including one child menu. Despite being very full we ordered a couple of desserts. The cheesecake sundae was a particular favourite.Would definitely return. The food, service and staff were all fantastic and we have now found a favours to return to.

A comfortable atmosphere for both the kids and adults. Great value for money and a good selection, even on the ninos menu. Amazed that such an atmosphere could be achieved in as small as space it was. Staff are friendly and attentive.Only gripe is desert menu seemed limited... (waffles!!!) otherwise very impressed and keeping an eye on the venue line up... definitely able to bribe the kids with this place!

Yummy food... a lot of it so I would suggest one skips lunch before going there... great as a start of a good night out or just as a good night out in its own right. American diner style.

Welcomed by a very helpful young man, very friendly and attentive. I had homemade buger which was delicious, the wife had the vegan hotdog which she said was gorgeous, food was very, very nice, topped it off with two filling puddings. All the staff were great, the young ladies that looked after us were very friendly too. Dont change what you are doing, keep up the good work, we will come back again next time we visit Oxfordshire.
