Reviews for Fat Pants Brewing Co. in Eden Prairie, MN
Glad I went to tick it off of my list of Minnesota breweries to visit, but it was overall a bit of a mixed bag. The staff was... really nice, and the outdoor seating was well lit and got a nice cross breeze, the beers for the most part were fairly modest,and we ordered corndogs, got the little buzzer disc, waited for it to go off, and were told when we brought it to the counterthat they didn't actually have corndogs, so we had to swap our order (this time to cheese curds) and wait again. The cheese cutscame out looking like squares of fried tofu, and we couldn't tell what kind of cheese was used because it wasn't very distinct, and it had an internal texture like cream cheese.

Why come here? The food is excellent (and there is friendly service). There also is a nice patio (which is dog friendly). Why... not come here? The beer is very subpar for a microbreweries in the area. Some of the beers were hardly drinkable. I also wastaken aback by an undisclosed 3.95% fee for using a credit card. I appreciate that inflation is a real thing, but I don't likebeing duped by a business into thinking pricing for cash and card is the same (which is the standard in our economy), neverbeing told about the added fee orally (nor is it on the menu listed on their web page that you are directed to order from oranywhere else that I saw), and then have it hidden on your bill. Shame on the owner for anti-consumer tactics. Read more
Staff was friendly. They made good suggestions to those of us who were undecided. I like a good IPA the monkey gridder did not... disappoint. They also have a good dark ale called hunny bear. Slushies are good here too. Not too busy, so we could talk. Theyhave a food truck right in the building. Nice atmosphere. Read more
Brought by dog for a nice time on the patio. There was an aggressive dog on the patio out front so we almost left before... realizing there was another on the side of the building. Ordered a flight and was just handed a pen an a flight paper to choosemy 4 beers. Beertender didn't stick around if I had questions. Beer was mediocre. Enjoyed the quiet time out on the patio awayfrom the craziness inside. Kids everywhere, running all-over. Not in a rush to get back. Read more
Local brewery right in heart of Eden prairie, first thing to notice is that whole staff is very welcoming. They have good... variety of beer and good selection of food too which is plus. Had a good time there, good hangout place for families, groups orfor happy hours! Pro tip- try space monkey, it?s strong and good! Read more
We had registered for a private dining experience, which ended up getting pushed back and some off timing / communication, then... finally back on track! It's definitely an enjoyable experience, having it in a room away from all the noise was great. Gettinga waiter ( Michael ) that was able to tell us about our meals -- some things not usually on the menu, and drinks along withextra conversation over things we had in common was icing on the cake. =D We hope this is something we are able to do again!

One of the best breweries we?ve been to. Atmosphere and decor were awesome. They have a food truck inside available with plenty... of options, however, we had just stopped by for a drink. We both had the Monkey Grinder, outstanding! We are very picky IPAdrinkers, and this IPA was one of our favorites. We agreed we will definitely return when in the area. All the guys workingbehind the bar were kind and fun! Read more
Went on a Friday night for a standup comedy show. Decided to grab a quick bite. The food and beer was surprisingly good! Had a... fantastic night at Fat Pants Brewing. Loved everything in my first visit. Will definitely come back!! Read more
