The Fat Cat is a pub at 49 West End Street, Norwich, Norfolk, England. It is run by the Fat Cat Brewery.

It was CAMRA's National Pub of the Year for 1998 and 2004, [1] as well as its Norwich and Norfolk Pub of the Year in 2012. [2] In 2023, a mural depicting Norwich City F.C. footballer Justin Fashanu was painted on one of its walls by graffiti artist David Nash, alias Gnasher, after his previous mural of former Norwich City manager Daniel Farke had become out-of-date when Farke moved on to Leeds United. [3] In 2025, The Daily Telegraph ranked it as the best pub in Norfolk, noting that it had a "reputation as one of the best places to drink beer in England". [4]
