Fat Hippo Nottingham

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience ordering from this restaurant. To start with, every single item arrived stone cold, and the delivery took far longer than it should have. By the time the food got to me, it was completely inedible. On top of that, both burgers were completely wrong, and not even close to what was advertised. • The Higson Burger(see photo off Deliveroo) was missing all of its listed toppings, came with the wrong cheese, and bizarrely only had mushrooms on it. • The Little Semi was even worse. It wasn’t even real chicken — it was literally two Birds Eye chicken tenders thrown inside a bun with just lettuce and cheese. No toppings, no sauces, nothing that resembled the menu description. The food looked absolutely nothing like the photos, and for £33, I expected at least a basic level of quality and accuracy. Instead, the entire order went straight in the bin because it simply wasn’t edible. I called the restaurant to give them a chance to resolve it, and the supervisor basically admitted defeat, telling me to raise it with Deliveroo for a full refund. Clearly this isn’t the first time they’ve had complaints. Overall, this was a terrible experience from start to finish, and I won’t be ordering again. Completely unacceptable for the price, quality, and standards they claim to offer.

Stopped off at the Fat Hippo after a quick search for a burger place and we were not disappointed! We all had incredible burgers and were spoilt for choice on what we could have, it was actually hard to decide. The staff were very friendly and Barney was even happy to give us some recommendations on bars to visit before our gig at Rock City later in the evening. Highly recommend this place if you want a good burger! 😋

Drinks took 20 minutes to come with only 10 other people dining whom already had their dishes so unsure why it took so long. Food took an hour both times i have attended. Good food and good pricing and deals but timing was a big issue. Our food took an hour whilst another table coming after us got theirs in 15 mins and a replacement for a mistake in 5. Staff not consistent with treatment of customers, attentive and respectful to some and blunt and relatively ignorant to us. Felt unwelcome and disappointed with service.

Charlotte was such a lovely host! Very kind and attentive and made sure our group had a brilliant meal. The food was incredible, and I wish I had a bigger stomach to eat it all 😭

My wife found this place on her way to the Nottingham arena and wanted to take me there. Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome and even without a reservation on a Saturday lunchtime were shown to our choice of table in the window. The staff were great and very attentive, without being over the top. The food arrived in good time and was amazing, I had a meat burger and my wife the chicken. The food was hot and well presented and very tasty 2 meals with a side and 2 drinks came to just over £50 which I think was reasonable. I would definitely go again and have recommended it to friends
