RESERVATIONS ~

WE 100% RECOMMEND RESERVATIONS!

Please see the information below and don't wait until the last minute. Reservations fill very quickly.

SEATING: 

Many things have changed here at Fat Cam's including our capacity. We are much smaller than we used to be. The upstairs is no longer accessible to patrons. We have a few tables downstairs, including three high top tables around the bar, the bar itself and our main dining is in our FOUR SEASONS ROOM. This room is a screened-in addition where our old patio was.

This is open all year round.

GROUPS OF 8 GUESTS OR LESS:

Please call 269-414-4446. 

Leave your name, contact number, the date of your reservation request, the preferred time and number of guests on our voicemail. 

Please allow up to 24 hours for confirmation (generally less). 

**Calls over the weekend are not checked until the following Monday. 

**We do not take same day reservations after 4 p.m. 

**Groups over 4 guests are highly encouraged to make reservations way ahead of time due to limited large tables available. This is especially true in the summer and holiday months.

GROUPS OF 9-12 GUESTS:

Please email your reservation requests (with all the above information) to: fatcamsatgarverlake@yahoo.com AT LEAST one week in advance. Please note we cannot seat more than 12 guests at this time. 

WALK-INS ~ 

It's not all about reservations. We will always try to have room for walk-in tables. We do not recommend walk-in tables over 4 guests due to the limited number of larger tables). 

BAR TOP ~ 

The bar itself is walk-in only. We do not take reservations to sit up at the bar. 

JUST TO REITERATE...

Over the decade we have been in business we have some advice. We just know how our restaurant flows better than anyone.

*Walk-ins are easier to incorporate if they are between 2-4 guests. 

*We recommend reservations for groups over 5 guests as we have only a few tables dedicated for slightly larger groups. 

*Busy nights, such as Fridays or any night during the summer, the wait can get excessive. I've seen groups wait over two hours for a table. Don't do that to yourselves! Make a reservation AND DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. 

*Our hosts are under extreme pressure up at the door so PLEASE BE KIND. They cannot control how long tables sit. The wait times they give are only estimates. 

*If we are on a wait: we will take your name and phone number and call or text you when your table is available. If we cannot get a hold of you we will move on down the list. 

*Patrons on the wait list: we ask you to please wait outside or in your vehicle. Our entryway is small and there is no room to wait inside. Alcohol is not permitted outside of our establishment.
