FREEPORT AREA
Fat Boy in Brunswick, Maine, has been around since 1955, creating an iconic legacy for itself as a go-to seasonal drive-in for locals and visitors alike: the frappes, the onion rings, the summer experience. But with the popular restaurant still not open for the 2026 season, many have been wondering what the future holds.
IAs of Monday, June 8, Fat Boy in Brunswick, Maine, has remained closed since its last day of the 2025 season in September.
....Adding to the uncertainty is that the property is once again listed for sale. Fat Boy went up for sale in 2024, just a few years after it was purchased from the Burton family in 2020.
The listing remained active for over a year, dropping in price, but it still opened for the 2024 and 2025 seasons.
It was quietly removed in May 2026, only to be relisted that same month for $695,000, but now with new listing agents Joseph Italiaander and Nate Roop of The Boulos Company
