OUR STORY
The Urbane family
Final Owners
The Urbane family purchased Fat Boy Burger in 2009. The restaurant business runs deep in this family. Matt Urbane, owner and proprietor, grew up in the biz. His father, James Urbane, owned several restaurants in the Grand Rapids area including The Fry House on Chicago Drive. In the time that they have owned Fat Boy, the family has made upgrades to the building while trying to stay true to the Fat Boy legacy. The goal has always been to provide a varied menu with fresh, quality products in a chill, laid back environment. .
