picture of The Fat Cat If you're in the area, the Fat Cat is now the venue of choice if you're looking for a bite to eat and a pint or two - particularly since the demise of the nearby Crown/Mar y Terra). Located in one of the two original industrial buildings in Bow Wharf, the Fat Cat serves a decent range of drink, including a couple of decent beers on the hand pumps, and an unpretentious and reasonably priced menu. The service is good, the décor in tune with its surroundings (but not uncomfortably industrial) and the atmosphere relaxed. Great for breakfasts on a summer's weekend.
