Amazing food. Hygiene score you can forgive.
The food slaps and hygiene is "Good" — not perfect, but nothing to worry about. Go for it.
Brown's Cafe And Bistro is your classic bustling eatery that tries hard, and mostly succeeds, in giving you a decent meal. The crab salad starter? To die for, as Alison put it. Honestly, I’d consider a second helping if I didn’t think I might be judged. The staff here, especially Rachael and Molly, are the real MVPs, making sure you’re well cared for even when they’re busier than a squirrel in a nut factory. Just be prepared for a few tables crammed together; cozy is one thing, but if you’re too close to your neighbors, it could lead to some awkward moments.
But hey, if you’re looking for a place to grab a quick bite with friendly faces and solid food, this is definitely the spot. Just don’t expect any Michelin stars or culinary earth-shattering experiences. It’s nice—just nice. Perfectly edible and quick to serve, but don’t plan your Instagram photoshoot around it. You’ll want to stick to the food and the banter.
