Fatman's Cafe & BYO Bar
Shop 3, 256 Crown St
Darlinghurst, Sydney
Ever been to a BYO Bar? Neither had any of our group either. But first, what is a BYO bar you ask? Basically you bring the alcohol - vodka, scotch, gin or whatever it is you want as your base - and they can mix you some amazing cocktails that cost you very little (because you've supplied the spirits).
Fatman's is a cafe and a bar too - so they have food as well as some killer drinks. We were there to see for ourselves and it was certainly unique, different and heaps of fun. This can be an inexpensive night out too because you're supplying the costly stuff - the alcohol. On our visit the spirits were kindly supplied by Tequila Blu - good stuff to have as a base on any occasion. It set the scene for a great night and some very tasty drinks.
Did we mention the food? Oh yeah, we did. Well on our visit we tried a few things going around on their trays and they were good. The buffalo wings went fast and so did the prawns. We think the wings are a standard dish there - and we hope they are as they looked and smelled great - and tasted just as good. There was some very nice bruschetta going around too that we grabbed as well.
Fatman's Cafe and BYO Bar is a fantastic concept. Very affordable drinks, because you bring the spirits, and some tasty food make for a great combo and a great night out. Give it a go.
