OVERVIEW
Fatboy Izakaya is a modern Japanese dining concept that blends Tokyo street-style energy with Bangkok’s bold, playful spirit. Designed for sharing and socializing, Fatboy brings people together over creative Japanese comfort food, inventive cocktails, and a vibrant, music-filled atmosphere.
The menu reimagines traditional izakaya dishes with modern twists and local influences, while the bar delivers signature cocktails, Japanese highballs, and curated sake that perfectly complement the food.
