The Fat Cat

You'll find The Fat Cat tucked away on Spring Road, the kind of place that's become a genuine local anchor rather than somewhere you stumble upon by accident. It's got that warm, unpretentious feel where regulars have their spots and newcomers are made welcome without fuss. The kitchen takes real pride in what comes out—think proper pub food done well, not just reheated basics—and the bar team actually care about their craft. The 4.8 rating across nearly 900 reviews tells you this isn't luck; it's consistency and the kind of attention to detail that makes people come back and bring their mates.
