WHAT’S HOPPING

Everyone’s got a favorite place for a

downtown Austin lunch.

We’d like to be yours.

Welcome to What's Hopping, the rabbit hole of news, stories, and shameless brags from Fat Rabbit Social House! We're known for Sunday brunch and patio cocktails, but we're just as much your new downtown Austin lunch spot - steps from Congress Bridge, Rainey Street, and the halfway mark of the Lady Bird Lake hike-and-bike loop. We're locally owned, we keep it house-made and fresh, and we genuinely understand the assignment of an Austin atmosphere.

Great food is easy to find around here. Great places are harder.

Pull up a seat, see what's new, and find out why we are quickly becoming one of downtown's favorite spots for brunch, lunch, and everything in between.

Your New Go-To for

Downtown Austin Lunch

A grilled cheese and tomato bisque are perfect for a downtown Austin lunch

Open every day but Tuesday, Fat Rabbit keeps things house-made, fresh, and full of flavor - whether you're settling into a Sunday morning with mimosas and friends, working through a two-top lunch with a colleague, or just stopping in for a latte. We're locals, born and raised on Austin vibes, and we built this place to feel less like a restaurant and more like your favorite hangout - a patio full of regulars, good music playing, a river breeze coming off the water, and a crowd that's always up for a good time.

Whether you're a local who needs a reliable lunch spot, a bachelorette crew kicking things off right, or visiting Austin for the first time, we're easy to love and even easier to come back to. We've already been named a top-5 finalist for Best New Restaurant and Best Brunch in the Austin American-Statesman's "Best of ATX" awards, and we're just getting started.

This is Austin. This is Fat Rabbit. Come hang.
