Reviews of Fat Boy Pantry

Jon Childers

This place is awesome. Hands down the best lobster possible boy I have ever had. The ice cream is amazing. You can tell that it is home made. This is a must try in NOLA. I am going to become a regular.

Devin McNeil

Such great food!! Got the Fried Lobster Po Boy with Bacon and Avocado, and it was sooo good! Everything about it was next level! It’s market price though so be prepared for it to be quite a bit more expensive than the other menu items. The dudes working there were very helpful and friendly! Great place to get a bite to eat!

Erin Emanuel

This food is fire! Danny and Joe are awesome! The French fries are better than five guys and any other sandwiches. Fresh crispy and addicting. After finishing my philly which was perfect, I couldn’t stop eating my fries! Worth the walk!

Dia Dahmer

Got the lobster poboy for take out and it was amazing! The fries needed more seasoning, but otherwise were good. Deducted one star because their website doesn't show current flavors of ice cream and when I tried to call, the number was not a working phone number.

Alexis Crumer

Went solely for the ice cream and had the best time! The ice cream flavors were so original without sacrificing quality taste or going so unique for novelty that it doesn’t even taste good. Flavors I never even thought of having were DELICIOUS, the Italian bakery flavor was unreal! Great friendly staff along with tons of seating and parking to pull up. Not to mention so affordable for how much ice cream comes in the scoop

Anastasiya Fistashka

This place has everything! Great for families or quick pit stop. Two types of fries, few types of sandwiches and beverages, indoor/outdoor seating. Good cooked to order and tasted times better than it looks!

Jimmy Ulfers

First visit, got the Philly Cheese on recommendation of owner...right on point, hot, messy, and delicious...including fresh cut fries. Told the "indoor seating is not available due to a large party coming soon..." I must say the outdoor seating is a 1 STAR, right on Magazine with speeding cars, way to close! The ditch is disgusting and stinks, but that's most of NOLA anyway...so no one came to sit inside the whole time I was there...if you can't eat inside I'd recommendation take away only.

Robert R

Great people serving great food. Had their sloppy joe with fries and it was not your average joe. A bit of spice with thick crisp fries. Highly recommend this causal spot with friendly employees. They have beer, ice cream and a fancy coffee machine if you’re into that as well.

Lindsay Aiello

If you're looking for a fantastic PO boy with lobster, this place has it. Be prepared to pay a premium but well worth it. Warning, serving sizes are big and the fries are very very good- you may need to work out extra hard to get through this delicious meal.

Dick Jagger

Happened upon this place across from the parking lot on Magazine street. Cute logo and a truck with the same logo sculpture on top. The food selection was, as I recall, mostly po boys, the sandwiches are served with very good sliced potato 'chips' ( to thick for chips but extremely good!). The only seating is a street stand with benches to enjoy the meal. I had a breakfast sandwich (not sure the menu name) I could only finish half, portions are satisfying and the some. A recommended spot for a great sandwich and fries, don't count the calories though...

George Warren

Stumbled onto this on a long walk. This place really needs some marketing help. We were just looking for OJ but they had so much wonderful options. We hung out with our fresh squeezed concoctions. This is a must stop for exploring.

Benjamin Goss

The ice cream is a rich cross between Italian Gelato and the richest American style ice cream you have ever had. The flavors are creative, fully customized and absolutely tongue twisting good. The variety of sandwiches and hand cut fries remind me of Guy Fieri’s Diners, Drive Ins and Dives … they are phenomenal. Each sandwich provides a NOLA-Italian Twist on American style classics. Last, but not least - their custom espresso’s made on an Italian style espresso machine with wood handles. Did I mention the juiced veggies? Freaking amazing juices for your imbibing pleasure. Fat Boy’s Pantry is a hidden gem. Not a hole in the wall - this place is the best kept open secret in the Lower Garden District - NOLA. Do. Not. Pass. By. Do not pass “Go” and collect $200 dollars. Come in - grab a trunk stool and belly up to the bar table. [psst - Add a shot of top shelf bourbon to that Espresso/Latte!]. I’ve had it all - Danny & Bri are masters.

Liz R (It’s Liz!)

In town for a conference and torn on lunch spots…. But when locals heard our group discussing options while we walked down the street and they ALL said not to miss this place, we obeyed. I can’t even describe how good the lobster po’boy was. The best po’boy I’ve ever had. The first bite was rapturous. My friend had never had lobster and had never had a po’boy, was very worried she wouldn’t like it but she was equally overcome. To the point we were recruiting other people off the street to try it. Portion is enormous and you could split it, but why????

Quenetta Arceneaux

I tried the fried lobster poboy 🦞 it was mildly seasoned so you can taste the lobster. So delicious 😋 Will be ordering again.

Alvin Gilmore

A local who had not eaten here. I stopped in for lunch but the internet was down and order’s couldn’t be take. I decided to wait. Worth the wait. I got the Pantry Cheese burger with egg, bacon and avocado. Fries were good. Yum. I’m a stuffed fat boy in need of a nap now. 😴 …

MP Media

Quality food for a late-night crowd. The Fried Lobster Po'Boy is market price (thanks inflation) but worth the cost. Freshly-squeezed juices, too.

Mehrunisa Sohail

This place has the best sandwiches I’ve had in New Orleans, hands down! Portions are huge and the employees are so nice. Deducting one star because they raised prices and it was not posted anywhere and the menu is not reflective of the changes.

Amanda Byers

One of our favorite spots in the LGD! The atmosphere is great, whether you're dining inside or outside on their new deck. One of the few places in town where you can get full off your meal (the cheeseburgers & fries are excellent) and where the staff are friendly and warm to everyone (including your fur babies). The ice cream is also a must, they always have fun and seasonal flavors.

Joanna Ghobrial

Ice cream is very tasty and they have very unique flavors. It’s just very soft so if you want like frozen ice cream, it won’t be exactly like that. The flavors are delicious though and they’re not the usual vanilla and chocolate

Kendell

Wow to the wow wow!! This lobster is better than shrimp! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu

Daniel Stuart

Overall, my experience at Fat Boys in New Orleans was mixed. The server seemed distracted and we had to wait longer than expected to be served although will give them the benefit of the doubt as it was late on a Sunday. The sandwich I ordered (Benedict) was very good and the portion sizes were generous, but the price was two dollars more than advertised. While the food was a highlight, the service and pricing were disappointing.

Nikole Watkins

Got the sloppy joe. So delicious. The fries were the best fries I've had in awhile. Highly recommend this place. Normally get a picture of the food but couldn't because we ate it too quickly.

Erika Reynolds

So glad we stumbled upon this place on our trip here from out of state! Ordered the fried lobster po' boy and I honestly think it was the best thing we had our entire trip! Loved the vibe and everything was so good!

electro wasabi

The Philly cheese steak was pretty good, it s ablot and a bit too much with the cheese and the meat for me and got old before I could finish. I d split it if I were to come back. The fries were really good. Service was ok.

Joost Morsink

Great poboy selection and the Philly cheese steak, the sloppy Joe, and the Greek were lovely. Great French fries as well.

Nathan Singleton

This was great! The city don’t have too much lobster but this is one of the few places that do. Definitely worth checking out!

Kelly Michalak

If you’re planning a cheat day, make sure you head here. Their ice cream flavors were so creative. The owner let us sample every flavor, making sure we were more than satisfied with our choice. I’d come back to try their lunch meals. Must try !

Justin Kray

While some part of me like the loud post-collegiate stoner vibe, I was disappointed in variations in the quality of their products, I ordered two affogato desserts (espresso w gelato), and one of them was watered down drip coffee, while the other was properly done I would describe the whole operation as "sophomoric" at best, or maybe their staff needs to be a little less "stoned"

Jennifer Ferrera Romero

I came across this restaurant on google looking for a late night meal after driving into New Orleans. I kept looking at the lobster poboy and wondering is this really worth 25$? Let me tell you it’s worth the 25$!!! Its been a month and i’m still thinking about how delicious that poboy was! I’d come right back again and spend that money! Delicious😋😋😋 (step sons face says it all)

Tyler Miller

Nice little hipster joint that serves delicous food. I had an amazing Lobster Po' Boy here. The best i have ever had. I can easily recommend this place.

Mileina Battaglia

Food was unique and very tasty. Service was sweet and efficient. Location is in a crowded area and there is nowhere to sit in and eat, only picnic tables on the street. It's a great place to grab and go, especially the coffee!!

Red Holiday

I was hesitant to go because some reviews said they were over priced and skimpy. I had the lobster sandwich and it had a lot of really chunky pieces of lobster so I think it's really worth the price. I also sampled the ice cream which was really good. I will be back.

William Nelson

Sidelined here after first brunch stop did not have available tables. WELCOMED SUPRISE. Friendly staff and fresh delicious food. Freshly squeezed grapefruit juice did not disappoint.

Katie Horsfield

OMG this place. The lobster Po Boy is one of the best things i've ever eaten. Friendly staff. Nice icecream selection too.

Hayden T

Do you want to interact with some of the coolest guys in the city and get one of the best sandwiches in your life? Go to Fat Boy Pantry. They also have some premium ice cream flavors and top tier coffee. If you're stumbling around in the area after happy hour don't pass it up.

Tano Gentile

This place is amazing. The caramel ice cream was just unbelievable. I couldn't even wait to snap this pic. There are also a few odd ball flavors that are also worth trying. I sampled the pear and Gorgonzola cheese ice cream and is surprised the hell outta me. The Cuban sandwich and fries were great too.

Meghan Murphy

Nice, down to earth owner. Food was absolutely delicious. Loved the eye opener coffee.

HJ Ying

Amazing lobster Poboy! Juicy with great sauce. Fries gets a bit soggy when they wrap everything up together and got smothered. It’s fresh hand cut and still tasty.

Brian Robertson

Do yourself and order the Fried Lobster Po-Boy I spent a week in New Orleans and this was easily my favorite spot! They also have a boar sloppy joe. Small spot with single bathroom. They sell coffee, ice cream and have beer. Enjoy!!

DarthDaddyKaze

This little hole in the wall restaurant was a great experience to have for the first time in New Orleans. I had the Wild Boar Sloppy Joe the way the Owner said he liked and and it was fantastic! The fries were also banging, being crispy but thick and their homemade ice cream was wonderful. Will definitely be stopping by again the next time I'm in town!

Raven Baker

Lobster poboy was amazing! Some of the reviews say not enough meat but that's so not true...they were not skippy at all!!!

Nick L.

This place is AWESOME! We got a couple of the Lobster Po’Boys and it was amazing!

Jessica Assad

Incredible!! You should 100% eat here. Everything my husband and I have had has been amazing, and we have visited multiple times. Dudes who work the counter are super cool too. Easy 5 stars.

Dara P

Delicious sandwiches. Small menu. Very clean. Ice cream was really good too.

James Carney

The Lobster po boy was worth it.

Frank Isom

Lamb chops had a great herby flavor to them. Paired well with the string beans and potatoes. I danced.😋

Jade Edwards

Legit!!!! So great for late night food after spending time at the bars! Friendly staff and amazing food!

Mason Hayward

This fat boy loved it! Meatball parm was killer and the burger hit like no other! Good work boys worth the walk every time

Lisa Poche

Delicious!!!!! Ordered the pantry cheeseburger. It comes wrapped in butcher paper with fries. The food was really hot!!! Will return.

James Catalano

Great people with great food. Breakfast pita was so good. Ice-cream is the best in the area. Highly recommend for breakfast or a quick snack. 🤤 …

Ayesha Brown

If you want GREAT quality food and AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE come to this restaurant!!! The gentleman assisting us was super informative and answered every single question we had. The food is cooked fresh and the ice cream is awesome! Definitely coming back.

Teddy Zeray

Best lobster Poboy sandwich I ever had. Two cool guys(may be managers or owners) and nice kitchen stuff. My friend actually got up the next day and got some more food from their place again 🤣🤣 was that good!!... We was in New Orleans for one night 👌🏿👍🏿🤙🏿🙌🏿

raquel roman

We just recently moved so we’ve been checking out all the spots for po’boys and damn this place was good!! We got the lobster po’boy and it was beyond delicious. The staff helped us decide what to order and they honestly made the experience a 10/10!!! 2Tall, the lovely guy who took our orders was helpful, charismatic and really conversational. Joe, the guy cooking the food deserves a medal, he threw down! Can’t wait to go back, it was so good, the fries were amazing and the condiments on hand definitely set them apart.

mark owens

I heard that Chicago knows how to make a great sandwich, they did not disappoint. I give FBP five stars for a few reasons such as its diversity in menu choices. Lobster roll (not sushi) , old school burgers are order two for yourself kind of place. The freshness of the food also gets high marks. Follow that up with a homemade scoop of Italian style ice cream and you are set for satisfaction. Great hours also. enjoy!

Megan Falgout

The Lobster sandwich was delicious! The bread was perfect. The guys working were very friendly and made a delicious Bloody Mary. My kids loved the ice cream.

Neesa Johnson

After a great movie date night with my beloved had Lobster po'boy. It was our first time. Service was great. Fries were a bit burnt tasting and the Po'boy would have been better with some type of slaw or lettuce on the sandwich.

Winter Flack

The sandwiches were great along with some amazing fries.

Mk Spencer

This is pretty much everything I like. Nice space, excellent food, coffee that's awesome, ice cream at 8am, big stumps to sit on. To-go food without a bunch of syrafoam, fresh juices. Yep 100%. Going back today.

April M

I absolutely love this place! South Georgia to NOLA! Perfect! Great atmosphere and beer!

Latonya Solomon

Delicious, hot & well seasoned sandwiches!! The best Philly Steak sandwich I’ve ever had! Melt in your mouth steak, perfectly caramelized onions, the cheese was cheesy goodness, so creamy! Soft toasted bread and the perfect pepper!! The Fried Lobster was just as great with that remoulade!! Amazing flavors, sandwiches made perfect! I’ll be craving these sandwiches until I can get another one!!! Thank you Fat Boy Pantry <3 and the staff is amazing 😊

Unexpected SPANISH INQUISITION

The staff were very kind and the food was great, had the Havana sandwich which was great, but their fries were on another level. Think of five guy fries thickness but perfectly fried and crispy on the outside while fluffy on the inside. The Havana was stuffed full of meat and was nice and hot, and will definitely come back the next time I'm in New Orleans.

Daniel Friscia

Not too bad of an egg/bacon sandwich - unfortunately took forever to get.

Kimberlee Kelly

This little place had super amazing original icecream we tried like 4 different flavors and even got the espresso shake the staff recommended delicious.

Alex Gargoz

It was awesome! I have the taste in my mind, I can wait to come again. Xoxo from Mexico.

Taryn Alexandros

Treated a friend to their handmade ice cream because of all the pictures I saw on Instagram. It was delicious! I got the iced coffee which was pretty good. We took a take out menu and plan on returning for some of the interesting sandwiches they have plus hand cut french fries!!

Martin Denesse, Sr.

Well let me tellya' cher! Dat lobster poboy is sumpin to die for! Great food...culinary genius! Go get one and eat sumpin delicious!

Tristine Harris

I committed murder at this place....Food was sooooo good and took me back to my East coast roots! I tried the Philly steak, fries and an affagato. Steak was seasoned perfectly and quality whiz. Fries were hand cut, double cooked, salted well, and crispy. The affagato... slap ya nonna... I got the espresso Gelato with an espresso shot....YES YES YES. Service was amazing and staff were really knowledgeable and helped me make great choices. I would have a picture but who wants to see a chalk sketch🤷🏾‍♀️🤣

Pedro Colón

Friendly staff! Meatball sandwich was good and so was the coffee!

Wade Halstead

Great sandwiches and fries. Pretty good house made ice cream, too. Pic shows lamb sandwich.

Bryan McCormick

The guy working the grill knocked my sandwich out the park. Great sauce, good portion of meat. Fries are really good. One guy was there to get my coffee which seemed kind of unfair to the other guy. After he got my coffee, he just went back to watching the game and the place is kind of small so he's just right there and the other guy really hustled. Guess i was the only one in there though.

Edward Dittman

Been coming here for years, food is amazing. Try the homemade FRESH icecream sandwich when you visit, you will not be disappointed!!

Mike Fig

They were out of most things on the menu and I got an Oat milk Latte that I don't know I was ordering (Wanted whole milk, wanted a mocha.) If I was out of key supplies I would go the store instead of having a dead menu. Fries and Ice Cream were good at least but communication was poor.

Joshua Allen

Awesome fries! Really crispy. Amazing lobster po’boy! Milkshake was ok.

Craig Carroll

The burgers are great. My kids loved them. The sloppy joe was awesome. The homemade ice cream is delicious and the fresh squeezed juice was refreshing. All the guys there are real friendly and helpful.

Jeb Wells

This food was so good. I got pantry burger with bacon and egg on top and fresh squeezed. I never review places but I felt compelled this place was so bomb. quite expensive only reason 4 stars.

Jonathan Rumbold

The place you didn't know you had to visit while in New Orleans. Breakfast sandwiches are some of the best in town!

ChefFarmerTrucker

So dang good. Very friendly staff, amazing cream cheese ice cream, and the best lobster po boy in New Orleans!!! From scratch fries too! Definitely a stop if you are in the garden district.

Chad Joseph Wilkins

First time visiting. Really good sandwiches, cashier recommended the wild boar sloppy joe and it was seriously flavorful.

Emma Riley

went here for a quick bite and ended up being blown away!!! definitely come with an empty stomach. everything was so fresh and flavorful, the homemade ice cream hit the spot after! would go back to NOLA just for this place.

c anderson

One of my favorite spots! Lobster Poboy is a must

McDonell Miller

Fantastic, handmade food at a really good price. Each sandwich is wrapped in a bag and has some of the best thick-cut fries I've ever had, and the ice cream is great (and handmade!) too. The dining setting is as unique as it is distinct, with clean tables and a friendly staff. Since the food is made per order, there's a bit of a wait, but you can watch the food be prepped if you want to and it's never been inconvenient or "too long" for the food presented. I can't recommend it enough, for both locals and tourists alike!

Bhargav E

The lobster poboy was one of the best I had in NOLA

Mario Blanch

Place is out of the tourist area but highly recommended. The lobster po boy was excellent. Lobster was fresh and butter melted in your mouth. You can't get food this good in the French district. Take a walk and eat a real sandwich.

Franz Kafka

The food is great....just really, really good sandwiches you can't get anywhere else. Fried lobster tail po-boy. Really. Greek sandwiches with lamb and feta, awesome breakfast sandwiches. Philly cheese steaks that are seriously real South Philly. Also, an espresso selection, unique smoothies, a great ice cream selection, even craft beers. All they lack is a notary public service or a watch repair kiosk. We love this place!

Bobby Ortiz

After some disappointing French Quarter food (had to do the tourist thing), we needed some good food. Excellent sandwiches and awesome fries. Definitely check this place out!

Pat Burke

Awesome little neighborhood coffee & sandwich shop. A steady stream of locals and regulars stopped by while we were there, very friendly. Everyone in our group loved their flavorful food and was amazed by the variety if offerings and very fair prices. We started with espresso & latte & sodas & beers then ordered the gyro, philly cheese steak, cubano, good old hamburger & a deep fried New England Lobster sandwich, all were quickly made, fresh and delicious. Oh yes, I should mention everything comes with a generous mound of crispy, delicious hand cut fries. If you have room for desert, which a few of us couldn't resist trying, the ice creams are made on site and they are creamy, flavorful & delicious! Please go for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you'll be going back soon too.

Adelaide Steedley

Great sandwiches but I don’t know how we ended up with a $50 tab for three sandwiches at lunch time. Odd vibe, a little rough around the edges but rustic well stocked sandwiches (maybe that’s why it was expensive).

Tira Anderson

My first time here I had the green smoothie with a splash of gin. That was AWESOME! I'm giving them 5-stars for the atmosphere and the staff. Great conversation with the staff. I'll be back and definitely referring everyone I know.

Cate Long

This delightful neighborhood spot with outdoor seating has delicious food options. My 10 year-old and I enjoyed a lunch stop here while biking to the Audubon Zoo.

Mary Michelet

This is Definitely my new go to spot for icecream. I got the Oreo cookie and cream and my son got the King Cake....both were so amazing. The service is also great. I called ahead to see what flavors they had and they let me know they would be bringing more flavors out in an hour or so. When I got there the flavors weren't ready yet but the employee/manager went to the back to scoop so for us anyway. Also they were out of cones so my son got an extra scoop for free. I can't wait to go back!

Happy Girl

Best Lobster Po Boy EVER!!!! Incredible fries too.🦞🍟

Scott Cancel

The food is fantastic and the ice cream is hand made. My friends and I walked into this place on a lark and couldn't have been happier. The owner was friendly and allowed to try multiple ice cream flavors at no charge. I recommend the peanut flavor. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone trying to get good food away from the main drag of the city.

Helen Cox

Amazing ice cream , interesting flavors . I enjoy the fresh pressed juice, but the second time I ordered the yam tactic it was disgusting . Taste really strange and not like I have tried it before. 😕 …

Chadwick Sentell

I had the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich which was very good. The hashbrowns are amazing as well. My son tried the homemade oreo and chocolate chip ice cookie ice cream and he said it was the best!

Henry Lipkis

Jaw droppingly good. Lamb belly Greek sandwich is phenomenal and my peppermint malt shake could win a prize any day of the week.

Brandon

This unique sandwich shop is a must-go for people traveling around NOLA. They have freshly squeezed juices, a variety of hand-scooped ice cream, really good coffee, bottled/canned beer, and solid sandwiches that come with thick French fries. The staff was friendly and quick. They surely don't spare anything on the portion sizes. I got their special: wild boar Sloppy Joe with pickled onions and an espresso BBQ sauce. I also got a hot coffee that wasn't too acidic or bitter.

Walter Whitman

Awesome little place just off some of the really busy area. Menu looks awesome, especially for a quick lunch and the ice cream choices are fantastic. Prices are pretty low to fair. Staff is super helpful and accommodating. I think they are newer, but once they get into a groove, it'll be even better!

Juan Cardona

The food was great. It's a super casual spot with cool tables outside. The Philly was incredible and the owner was very very nice! Will be back

Nathanael Fairburn

I didn't know what to expect, but the food is beyond excellent. Very well worth the price. Great atmosphere and style, however my only complaint is that the logs they use as chairs (also pretty cool) are a few inches too short of the average relationship between a table and chair. But I guess it gets you closer to the food. I'm looking forward to going back to the Fat Boy Pantry soon.

Nicholas Mierholtz

This place is a gem! Its small and a little off the beaten path but the quality here it top notched. My group was greeted when we walked through the door and we had all ordered within minutes. The double cheeseburger with thick slab bacon and a fried egg added was one of the best things I ate while I was in new Orleans and will definitely be back nest time I'm in town.

Amin Sabzehzar

Too greasy and frys were burned...

Dakota Tyler

One of the most amazing places we've been to in NOLA! We are from Oklahoma and here on a wedding trip. The owner was there helping the staff and they all gave us places to visit. The food and service was superb! Definitely a place to stop in and enjoy the atmosphere.

Maegan Smith

Food is delicious. Out of the way enough there isn’t a line (though there should be). A must visit after going to the WW2 museum.

peter nelson

Legit, the best food I had in New Orleans. Shout out to Danny and Joe.

Emmanuel Ayumba

the fried shrimp and lobster poboy at fatboy is by far the best poboy i have ever had. the sauce is nothing to scoff at, but the fried shrimp and lobster make the sandwich. so juicy, tender, and well prepared. if you are in the new orleans area, u have to try this place.

JD Brannock

I like the vibe and the fries were fantastic, but the burger was nothing special (for $10) and service was so show. Granted, there were about a dozen people in my group, but it took almost an hour for all of us to get our orders. They were way understaffed for lunchtime on a Saturday.

Abby D

Hands down the best ice cream in the city and amazing food as well. Very creative and yummy flavors of ice cream made from scratch and all natural ingredients. I lived the coconut and the maple walnut. Frankenstein was also interesting. Hi eat coffee and sandwiches as well. Clean and hip atmosphere. Hit it up!

Jasmine N

OMG... Lobster PoBoy. I'll pay market price for this any day. Even the Philly poBoy was good. But again, did I mention the lobster. The delicate lobster is fried and placed on heavenly bread where it is coated with what I assume to be secret sauce from the secret sauce society rated 10/10 first place champions 10 years in a row. This sauce I'd eat on it's own. Then it's all wrapped together, I'm sure it's some wrapping technique only employed by the sandwich gods, then cut in half and then handed to you in a conspicuous paper bag. I recommend eating this with a beer or cider and just enjoying all of it.

Jason Gresci

Been living in this area for 4+ years. They have the best cheeseburger and meatball sandwich. I need to get their steak & cheese too. MOST IMPORTANTLY, FAT Boy beats the price for anywhere else on magazine st - ESP with this quality of food. GREAT QUALITY.

Sara Rousey

The one place we returned to over and over on our trip to NOLA. The peanut butter and eggnog ice creams were both amazing!

Matt Nussbaum

This place is awesome. The food is creative and unique, I had the wild boar sandwich and a green smoothie. True Paleo! Service was good, it's popular and they had two guys doing everything, worth the wait.

Josh Sheffield

We have a lot of restaurants on our list for our time in New Orleans, and we will probably have to knock some off and go back here instead. We had the wild boar sloppy joe and the lobster po boy. Both were incredible, but the po boy was one of the best things I've ever eaten. It not only competes with, but destroys all but one of the many lobster rolls we had in Maine. And it's at least on par with that one(My wife says she prefers this one). The fresh juice and the ice cream were awesome as well. We also got an apple carrot cake muffin to go which we just sampled. Unsurprisingly, that's excellent too. I see some reviews about service. These guys are super chill, so I see how they could come off as uncaring. They're not though. They're passionate about food, and really friendly once engaged in conversation. This is not a place where someone in a tidy uniform is going to repeat the same spiel to every customer. I prefer it this way, it's like seeing some buddies who make some mean grub.

Henry Weeden

Best PO boy I've ever had in my life! The bread and sauce are delicious, if I'm ever back in town I'm going here first.

Ben Morcos

Fantastic. Easily one of the best two philly cheese steaks I’ve had in my life with the other one being in Philadelphia. She got the cheese steak three consecutive days when we were recently at an airbnb in the garden district luckily around the corner from this place. On the third day I tried the gyro (also great) just to change it up. Nicest guys as well. Great dudes, great sandwich shop. Just go.

Jeff Purvis

This is a must eat. Fabulous. Had a burger and a lobster roll. Both were amazing, and the staff was super cool.

Cindy C

I just love the vibe of this place. Really fortunate that it was a short walk from my Airbnb. I loved the fried lobster po boy and fries, I've had it twice! It was just my bad luck that they've been out of ice cream this time. They also serve breakfast, coffee, juices and ice cream. They also have a good selection of beer. PS: Also, go to CBD (Central Business District), which is also a chill place that has food and drinks. I'll write a separate review for that one.

Arthur Stevens

Great unique flavors. Personal friendly service.

Chloe Gabrielle

Super friendly staff and really great lobster poboy. Also ordered liver 9-1-1 juice, definitely coming back. If you’re looking for a breakfast spot without the long lines and excellent food- check this place out.

Marcelle M

The juices are made fresh and taste delicious! Sandwiches are also very good here too. Definitely recommend!

Alexandra Villalpando

This was my last stop in Nola and its true, i saved the best for last . The lobster po boy was incredible, and Bri and Dan behind the bar were so kind. Great conversation and excellent food. I cant wait for them to open a shop in Chicago!

Melissa Armstrong

The ice cream here is wonderful. We had a basil sherbet and lemon cookie ice cream, so refreshing and delicious on a hot day. They also have a beautiful slayer espresso machine that makes a delicious cubano. Can't wait to come back for an affogato.

Kyle Landry

Staff and out of their way to be helpful when they definitely didn’t have to. Great Guys Great Service!

Anna Pirog

Super yummy ice cream! Met the owner and he gave us wonderful tips for other spots to eat and drink in NOLA. Didn't eat anything other than dessert but it's some of the best ice cream we've had on our travels.

Lenin Guerrero

As much as I love this place, it’s like they are TRYING to go out of business. The philly is the best in the city and the fries are excellent. On the downside they close unexpectedly like 530pm on a Friday (you know...dinner time) the Philly recently changed from being an oversized hearty sandwich on delicious bread, to a philly that resembles the size of a hotdog and the same goes for the bread.

Ryan Soliday

Two words....Lobster Po'boy! Hidden little gem. We decided to check this place out after being invited in walking to the WWII museum. Grabbed a couple sandwiches and started talking with the owner Dan - super friendly guy. Makes an outstanding Lobster Po'Boy with Lobster only from Maine - worth the $15 in my opinion. Also makes his own ice cream which we got to try a few samples at no cost. Amazing pistachio and I don't even like pistachio ice cream. Check them out - I doubt you'll be disappointed!

I'm visiting New Orleans all the way from Ohio. Stoped here and ordered the eye opener ans it was the best coffee I've ever had. It was so good that I finished my coffee before my mile wall to the Convention Center. If I'm ever back in this city again I'll definitly get my coffee here.

josh helms

Absolutely wonderful customer service. Google said they were open late. I called and the gentleman was almost finished up closing, and said they were closed but he could sell me some ice cream. He did. It was great. Made my night.

Paul Hauser

The Pantry Cheeseburger left cheese in my moustache and between my fingers, that's what a cheeseburger should do. Definitely add bacon 'cause it's cut super thick. My wife got a cuban sandwich and it must have been great because she only offered me a very small bite after she was too ful to finish. Great music was on but a little loud and the layout was a little confusing but I'd still rate it 5 stars.

Amy Hamilton

New to the hood. Great burger, made while I waited. Be sure and be hungry! Fries were also wonderful. Will be back, especially for ice cream.

Cozy little spot. Was in walking distance of this place & decided to try the lobster poboy most raved about in the reviews. Well now I'm one of them lol. The menu listed poboys as $10. Ironically on all of them their was a hole in the menu next to the cost of the lobster poboy. Got to the register & found out Why! A whopping $20 ! Anywho it was really good. I was actually impressed and Im a foodie.

Debra Cuny

Great sandwich & fries. Couldn't eat the whole thing. Had to try ice cream & it was delish. The cute little ice cream spoons change color when cold. Love it!

Nathan Stumpie

I stumbled by this place by chance looking for where I had parked my car. The people were very friendly. Their ice cream was wonderful, lots of good flavors that were unique, such as a cinnamon peanut flavor.

Benjamin Legum

Delicious, decedent sandwiches and boutique full-fat ice cream. The fried potato slices are addictive. Highly recommend! It's worth finding this place.

M. A.

Okay.. This place.. is JAWSOME. I have a huge soft spot for breakfast food and I got the Benedict Eggwich and I was just so awestruck at the amount of food served here. The side of potatoes where obliterated in a few minutes. The sandwich was just perfection. I am gonna eat here once a dayfor the entirety of my vacation to try other options.

Emily States

Five words: lobster tail remoulade po' boy. It's the best thing I've ever put in my mouth, even cold leftovers (because that one sandwich was definitely two meals). It's the most expensive po' boy but soooooo worth it. I would go back to New Orleans just for that sandwich. Plus, the staff were fun and personable, and the place itself has its own charming vibe.

Therese Henderson

A wonderful find Great service, delicious food that is all cooked to order And a great atmosphere Very clean The king cake shake was to die for

Manch Cadwallader

Just found this place while walking and decided to pop in. The service here is exemplary, and the ice cream is incredible. Absolutely recommend to anyone looking for some really nice snacks.

Michael Berry

The ice cream is killer. The Havana sandwich too is amazing. I come here often with my old dog and the owner always has treats to give him.

Ryan Kirk

Highly recommend the Fried Lobster Po-Boy and the Wild Boar Sloppy Joe. The fries are excellent as well. Save room for dessert because the hand made ice cream is great.

Danielle Cowan

If you are trying to enjoy Fat boy pantry on Tuesday or Thursday and you are using Apple’s Map or fat boy pantry’s website for business hours those sites are currently incorrect. The hours may change but as of right now google has the business hours correct.

David Horn

Had the lobster po-boy, while it was pricey it was well worth the price with the quality ingredients they used! Best po-boy i had in New Orleans!

Rose Bangan

The food is amazing, the coffee is on point and Rodney loved his hot chocolate. I have a love affair with a bacon and that is some of the best bacon I have ever had. Bacon make everything better 💜 …

Kenny Aruwa

Oscar Voigt

Favorite sandwich shop in NOLA - definitely get the fries any Style. Dog treats available for your pup!

Judith Briggs

spent a few days in New Orleans right across the street from Fat Boy Pantry. OMFG - the fried lobster po boy is AMAZING and so arent the fresh juices. The owner is a down to earth hard working guy who you can tell is passionate about what he does. Highly recommend Fat Boy Pantry
