Fat Louies

Always a great time. Cheap beer on special, some of my favourite bar staff, solid space with a bunch of tables, and great karaoke selection. One of my favourite venues to go out to for hospo night!

Brisbanes seediest pub. Sticky Floors. Peeling wallpaper. Drab decor. Furniture is falling apart. Using the toilets is an enlightening experience. Pool tables are not level and need resurfacing. Cheap drinks with no guarantee you will get what you asked for or that you can get the same drink twice. Terrible karaoke. Love this place. You must visit Fat Louie’s and soak it all up.

5/5 floor was sticky enough, Islands were long eough. Hulks... they green enough. Need to fit in 6 more snooker tables for solid 6 star rating. Staff were all incredibly good looking. Nebulosity.

beautiful service, radu is a lovely man and a legend. Great service!

We’ve spent many nights at Fat Louie’s and it’s one of our favourite places to play pool in Brisbane. 5 stars for them having such cheap drinks, a lot of pool tables and being a genuine dive bar.

Love this place, nice and cheap, authentic feel, lively place for cheap drinks and pool, really enjoyed having Levi as our bartender for the night. Splendid. Would recommend.

The heart and soul of Brisbane's dive bar atmosphere. Fat's has been the venue of choice for meeting up since I can remember. Keep up the seediness, it's iconic!

It's straight out of a scene from Poolhall Junkies, what more could you ask for?

Fat louis is one of the most fun bars I have been to. The staff are friendly, the drinks are cheap and good, the place is full of pool tables and the music is great. Overall I would recommend this place if you just wanna have a fun night out.

Do they even do food here??

Best dive bar hands down.

Great for a game of pool and cheap drinks at happy hour. Has a very dive bar feel, if that's what you are into.... Happy days.

Look end of the day this is a cheap as hell dive bar. But they've redone the floors and seating and if you adjust your expectations and like pool you'll get a kick out of this place. 5-7 Is happy hour with 4 dollar basics.

Great place to play pool and chat earlier in the day. They have happy hour from 4-6 which was great and then the place turns into a proper club later on which is cool.

Not going to lie one of my favourite bars in Brisbane, the staff are a lot more down to Earth than other establishments. The drinks are cheap and there's usually very little of a wait to be served. Not to mention the diverse range of patrons that you get there.

Fat Louie’s is the best place if you want to book a room for karaoke. If you need any technical support Jordan is on the case - fantastic customer service, he wants everyone to have a good time! Definite 5 stars :)

Mad atmosphere, cheap pool and drinks, good service, all round great place.

Absolutely pleasure perfect. The cheap drinks flowed at a similar pace to the white Béchamel sauce I was filling my retro 90's adult diaper with. Loud music disguised the pleasant sloshing noises as I moved about the place at an unsteady jig. 347 millilitres, a new record.

I love this place, drinks and cheap and it's a good atmosphere with no pretentious people. If you love fancy, don't come here though! Still give it a 5 star rating despite having my drink spiked here!

Cheap drinks, met some cool people, the bar staff are cool. Definitely a new favourite place to go

Sticky floors: check. Cheap drinks: check. Pool: check. 2-hour happy hour: check. Quality tables: check. Multiple songs playing at once: check.

Verdict: it's a winner (esp at 5-7pm with $4 basics)
