Part of The Fat Shallot
Sam Barron and Sarah Weitz began The Fat Shallot in 2013 as one of the very first food trucks in Chicago licensed to sell made to order food.
We’ve since expanded to two trucks and three permanent locations.
Everyday we try to make great versions of classic sandwiches that everyone will recognize and everyone will love….big sandwiches that taste great with friendly, unpretentious service.
We take food seriously at The Fat Shallot, but we also like to have fun. Contact us if you’re interested in joining the crew!
