They say “Fat Chance”… but this is your chance!

We’re homegrown, Melbourne-made, and fuelled by a love of food.

Fat Jak’s is the king of the cheat meal, serving up gourmet burgers, loaded hot dawgs, massive parmas, and monumental sides that keep customers coming back for more. We take American-style comfort food and give it a unique Australian twist, using premium, locally sourced ingredients for maximum flavour and quality.

Our fast casual dining model combines the speed of Quick Service Restaurants (QSR) with the experience and variety of full-service dining—giving customers the best of both worlds. We greet guests’ old-school style, take their orders at the counter, then deliver their meal straight to the table.

With an ever-growing fan base and successful locations across Melbourne and Sydney, we’re expanding nationally. Now’s your chance to bring Fat Jak’s to your community!
