Make way for Fat Hippo

Coming to St Vincent Street soon is Fat Hippo, specialists in loaded burgers and fries that’s good old fashioned, get-your-hands-and-face-dirty-while-you-eat kinda food.

The independent burger chain, Fat Hippo has announced plans to open a new restaurant in Glasgow this year. The company, renowned for their burgers and loaded fries, will open the brand new restaurant on St Vincent Street in Spring/Summer.

Fat Hippo’s already got 10 locations across the UK, including the north east and west of England, Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire. It will be Fat Hippo’s second site in Scotland after they opened their concession kiosk serving a selection of their burgers within the new Lane 7 complex in St. James Quarter, Edinburgh last year.

The family friendly burger joint is famous for its quality ingredients and quirky flavours, with burgers like their PB&J (a beef burger topped with peanut butter and bacon jam) available, alongside all the classics.

Glaswegians will be able to tuck into a full menu of their signature beef and boneless buttermilk chicken patties (with fries as standard) and a range of vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options – as well as a kids menu.

Michael Phillips, who founded Fat Hippo in the North East of England in 2010 said: “When we were given the opportunity to bring Fat Hippo to Glasgow city centre, we couldn’t turn it down. The building on St. Vincent Street is the ideal location for our brand new restaurant, and we’re so excited to be able to welcome everyone for a taste of ‘the good kind of gluttony’.”

Glaswegians, you’ll also be pleased to know that Fat Hippo’s teamed up with Deliveroo, so you’ll also be able to order their burgers for delivery to your door!
