2008 EVENTS

It's a great time to visit Fat Tony's and enjoy the weather on one of our outdoor patios. Both the Racine Commons location and the Downtown location have great patios with umbrellas to shield the sun -- or open air for sun worshipers. Both locations also have covered outdoor seating in case it rains. It's all good.

Did you know the Racine location of Fat Tony's was patterned after actual pubs in London? See www.hagersmith.com for architect information.
