Fat Monk – Store No. 9 in Vienna

Fat Monk – Deli Bowls continues to expand in Austria. Developments are moving quickly: at the end of April, the brand will open another location in Vienna, at Operngasse 24 in the 4th district. And already in May, the next step outside the capital will follow with a new location in Graz.

This makes the concept’s evolution increasingly visible: from a strong presence in Vienna toward broader expansion across Austria and Germany. For us as a development partner, this is another significant milestone, as it demonstrates that urban, centrally located sites and a clearly positioned fresh-casual offering are an excellent match.

The new location on Vienna’s Operngasse is within walking distance of Karlsplatz and exemplifies the typical Fat Monk – Deli Bowls site profile: central, urban, and high-traffic. The concept focuses on creative bowls with fresh ingredients and international influences. Guests can choose between signature bowls and individually customized options, including meat, fish, or vegan variations. In this way, the brand combines everyday convenience with a modern dining experience.

The figures also highlight the momentum:

Fat Monk – Deli Bowls is now represented by nine locations in Vienna. Outside Vienna, four additional locations have already opened, and four further licenses have been awarded. At the same time, concrete lease negotiations are underway in Bavaria for several cities. As a result, the company’s expansion in Austria and Germany is taking on increasingly tangible form.

As a high-level development partner, we support Fat Monk – Deli Bowls throughout this phase — from market assessment, site selection, and partner acquisition to openings and operational support. The focus remains on sustainable expansion, suitable locations, and long-term viable partnerships.

With Graz, the first location in Styria will open later in May. At the same time, franchise licenses are being awarded for Germany and additional Austrian cities.
