In the heart of Sulphur, nestled near the serene Lake of the Arbuckles, is Fat Bully’s by the Lake—voted the “Best Lil Burger Joint In Oklahoma.” More than a restaurant, it’s a local haven where the tempting scent of mouthwatering burgers and the clinking of beer glasses create a tapestry of community connection, making it the ultimate spot for catching up over burgers and beer amidst the natural beauty of Sulphur’s woodlands and the nearby lake.
Fat Bully's by the Lake stands as a testament to the vibrant and diverse flavors that small-town America has to offer. A destination restaurant for bikers, it beckons riders with its mouthwatering offerings and becomes a sought-after stop, not just for its delectable fare, but also for the scenic beauty that surrounds the woodlands near the Lake of the Arbuckles.
The restaurant embraces the local small-town vibe, creating an intimate and welcoming space that resonates with the tight-knit community spirit of Sulphur.
Step outside onto the inviting outdoor deck, and you'll find yourself immersed in a lively vibe. On select nights, the air is filled with the soulful tunes of live music, creating an atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The deck not only provides a picturesque view of the surrounding woods but also serves as a gathering place where locals catch up over burgers and beer.
The main attraction on the menu is the mouthwatering burgers, served with a choice of french fries or onion rings (with tater tots available for an additional charge).
One of my favorites is the Loco Yard Bird, a tantalizing creation that embodies the essence of Fat Bully's culinary prowess. Picture this: a grilled chicken breast, adorned with pepper jack cheese, a cheese-stuffed chili relleno, all smothered in their homemade queso, and topped with a crown of fried jalapeños.
The ice-cold beer selection and diverse drink offerings cater to all tastes. Whether you're a craft beer enthusiast or prefer a classic cocktail, the bar at Fat Bully's is stocked to satisfy every palate.
They also have an array of tempting dessert offerings. Indulge your sweet tooth with the decadent carrot cake or opt for the exquisite caramel mini cheesecake. These desserts are the perfect finale to a meal that showcases the diverse and delightful culinary talents of this hidden gem.
