Browns in Leeds

It was a large group of 15 for food and 25+ for drinks. We were very well accommodated for in a separate room , received excellent booking service with all my pre queries were answered.

It was pleasure to be served Afternoon Tea by Elsa today at Brown's. She was very helpful and friendly. The Afternoon Tea was yummy and the restaurant were very obliging and let us book it for 1.30pm instead of their usual 3pm-5pm. All in all a lovely experience. Thank you to all.x

great food once again and the wonderful Darcy and Maura who looked after our table with great care👍😁I recommend👍😁👍

A quiet Thurs lunchtime. Good service. Drinks expensive but not outrageous. Perfect duck/plumb etc. starter! Chicken and leek pie and mash, too dry, poor (too flaky) pastry - deeded gravy and some veg on the side. Perfect chocolate tort (when served with icecream). Overall: very good/bordering on excellent.

Gorgeous food cooked to perfection.Outstanding table service from Darcy our waitress who was attentive without being over the top. Lovely venue with a lovely ambience .

Service was a little slow for a weekday afternoon but served in a polite and friendly manner when the server eventually arrived.

Good food, horrifically slow serivce. We had to ask to order food, drinks, desert, get the bill, get the card machine. They only offer us table water when ordering our 3rd drink and desserts.

Had an evening of drinks here. Very helpful staff. Great selection of drinks. Great location. Enough big space for large groups but also areas for small groups and couples. Good atmosphere and great looking space to spend time in.

The food was ok, maybe not the best Brown’s food I have ever had, but Frankie’s service was outstanding. I am a lone diner and sometimes get overlooked or not treated well, but I would go back for the service.

Visited for the first time for a wine tasting. It won't be the last time. Fantastic place

We went for dinner before going to the cinema! Really nice atmosphere even if the place its was packed. We had cheese soufflé and teriyaki chicken for starters and 2 seabass risotto as main,they were lovely as always cant go wrong with Browns! Incredibile and friendly staff. I cant wait to go back. Thanks Browns🥰

Perfect food served on schedule and excellent staff made our wedding reception memorable

12/10/2024 I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an afternoon tea prepared by Chef Ela, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was inviting, with a beautifully set table that perfectly captured the elegance of the occasion. Chef Ela's attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the experience. The selection of teas was diverse, offering something for every palate. Each blend was carefully curated to complement the exquisite array of pastries, sandwiches, and scones. The standout items were undoubtedly the scones, which were light and fluffy, served warm with clotted cream and homemade jam. The finger sandwiches were equally impressive, featuring a delightful mix of flavors and textures—each bite was a little burst of joy. The pastries were a work of art, showcasing Chef Ela’s creativity and skill; they were as delicious as they were beautiful. What truly made the afternoon special was Chef Ela herself. Her passion for culinary arts shone through as she shared stories about each dish, making the experience feel personal and memorable. Her warmth and enthusiasm created a lovely atmosphere that made us feel truly pampered. Overall, I cannot recommend Chef Ela's afternoon tea highly enough. It was a perfect blend of flavor, elegance, and hospitality. Whether for a special occasion or simply a treat for yourself, this experience is one you won’t want to miss!

Zack’s Guinness was brilliant!! Best in Leeds easily, will be back

Lovely meal. My thanks to Prabh the Chef.

Lovely atmosphere, came for a few drinks and had amazing seasonal cocktails from Jack! Will be coming back very soon

Service at browns at the bar has gone down massively I would not recommend this place for drinks only overpriced and underwhelming.

Jack is ace!!! He has been wonderful and has made our evening something we will never forget.

Jack provided great service all evening!

Nice food, good service, would return.

If there are various dishes with salmon on the menu and when the menu is handed over, it is not stated that salmon has run out, that is strange. Furthermore, we had a nice breakfast.

Been coming to Leeds a long time and really can not fault Brown's. Everything about the place is perfect. Special mention to ZACK. A credit to this establishment and pulls the most amazing creamy pint of Guinness. 10/10. Food was amazing also. Already looking forward to coming back .

Dropped in for some food & a drink today. Fabulous, classy place. For any Guinness drinkers out there dont go anywhere else for a pint, best pint of Guinness in Leeds pulled with care & full attention & dedication by Zach for my husband. Hope the owners cherish & recognise this lovely young lads skills.Friendly, chatty & a real credit to your team of lovely people. Thank you Zach.,it was our pleasure to meet you. We dont have to search next time, we will be straight in. , we hope you will be working (No pressure) Xx Carol & Shane from Dublin xxx

Nice bar, lovely atmosphere but maybe have someone at the bar to serve. We were the only two people at the bar and still took over 20 minutes to get served while staff concentrated on table service only

Visited Browns the other day with my family and had such a lovely time. The atmosphere and the food was amazing but I have to thank our server Skye who was so kind to us. She served us with a constant smile and definitely made our experience. I am definitely coming here again!!

Came to Browns for dinner last week and the service was amazing!! The food was all delicious and beautifully presented but the best part was the staff, we were served by Molly and she was lovely! Very attentive and willing to engage in a great conversation and help us whenever we needed! Thank you Browns, we will be back!!

It was nearly empty for breakfast, but great food

I like Browns as a place to enjoy a quiet drink in refined surroundings.

Lovely place, Frankie gave us great service the whole evening

Came for lunch today and was served by molly, lovely girl, food was very nice, will come again

Went into browns for bite, had Darcey as our waiter. Lovely service!

The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was mediocre and the portions small. I had the rhubarb pork belly which was fine but nothing to write home about. As you can see from the photo the sauce had a film from being reheated and it tasted like any average barbecue sauce. Disappointing for the prices.

We had lunch. Frankie who served us was nice and friendly but professional. The food was great and the cauliflower cheese was the best I've ever had. So all in all a good place to dine

Always love coming to Browns, I’ve been visiting for years. Love the decor, the vintage feel of the place and the food is AMAZING. Sometimes the service can be a little slow, the waitresses can be seen standing around having a gossip when you might need them, but they’re very friendly and good at their job. Had brunch today and it was so good - can’t recommend the pancakes enough 🥞

Came for my elderly mother’s birthday and she had a fantastic time. Darcey our server gave us exceptional service and really made my mums day special. Thank you Darcey. xxx

Great service from Darcey would recommend :)

Ousoumane was amazing, great service and food was fantastic!

Had a fantastic night in Leeds as it was a friends birthday we chose to eat in browns as it had a nice atmosphere and we were lucky enough to have a fantastic waitress called Darcy Pearce who went above and beyond with excellent service making my friends birthday amazing, thank you Darcey

Really lovely experience, Darcey was very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed our meals. We all had a great lunch and relaxing Thank you Darcey

Our first time at Browns, great atmosphere, so many different things I wanted to try. Experience made even better by fab service from Darcey.

great atmosphere, came for a family meal and got served by darcey, she was very attentive and advised us on her favourite dishes, which helped us make our decision. Food was also delicious!!

The scallop starter is a must try!

Just stopped for a drink after meeting family

Manuela is the most excellent, warm hearted server! She completely made the experience, she is so lovely

Great service from Elsa. Great gluten free options too

Lovely cocktails served by polite well presented staff

Great service by Frankie - thanks again for a excellent service

delicious food great people and atmosphere👍

Great afternoon tea, the scones were the best weve had in a long time. We will be back.

Fresh taste of home , friendly staffs, Good price

Food came very cold was such ashame.

Solid brunch of eggs royale in a fancy looking restaurant. Service great and served a good pint of Guinness

Great decor, chill atmosphere, good food and prices aren’t too high. Frankie was a very attentive server.

Visited for my daughter's graduation meal and had the special grad menu. Service was very good, food was lovely, and my daughter was made to feel special with free champagne and treats. The atmosphere was lovely too.

Popped into Browns in Leeds City Centre on a quiet Wednesday arvo. My partner and I treated ourselves to their British Afternoon Tea set, and it was proper posh. The place has this swanky modern grand cafe vibe, all sleek and stylish. Being midweek, it was blissfully peaceful. The whole vibe was dead fancy but not stuffy for me at least. Tiered stand came loaded with dainty sarnies, scones that were just chef's kiss, and some seriously indulgent cakes. Tea selection was top-notch, I also had cappucino coffee which was creamy but light, perfect blend. And the staff were attentive without being in your face. If you're after a bit of midweek indulgence without the weekend crowds, this is your spot. If you're after a bit of British elegance, this is your place. Perfect for a chilled date or just treating yourself!

Very empty at 2.30pm on a weekday, service very slow, items ordered were forgotten. All in all food good Pulled lamb shepherd’s pie lovely and tasty all though there were quite a few lumps of fat. Bread basket we ordered immediately to arrive before even ordering starters wasn’t delivered until our main course. Waiting to pay bill took forever due to ‘system problems’

Good portions and choice. A bit cold and Yorkshire pudding dry but rest of Sunday roast was fine

Great meal Lovely staff and fantastic service especially from Alisha.

The services was amazing , breakfast incredible and our server accommodated to all our needs

Really nice food and the waiter Ousoumane was extremely polite and helpful. We will definitely come back!

I had such a fun experience at browns today! what a great start for a saturday!! Lauren provided amazing service and made sure we were all comfortable throughout our breakfast. 10/10 would dine again. Keep it coming…

Fantastic graduation dinner menu, and amazing service from Sky! Would definitely come back again for a special occasion!

I just had a lovely meal with my dad here. Lety was lovely and really attentive, and we had a great time. All the food was cooked well and the wine was great too. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a nice meal out

Food was good, drinks nice and the server was lovely, however the restaurant had not 1 bottle of ketchup in the whole place. The state of the bathroom was horrific though, I'm glad I went after my meal as I dont think I would have been as comfortable eating there. I will not return for that reason.

We had a table for 15 and everything was perfect. Alisha was our server and she did a great job of taking care of all of us. Thank you.

Darcey was lovely and attentive despite being seemingly rushed and took great care of us during our visit

Took a while to order cause the restaurant was busy, but it’s totally fine nothing too crazy. Food was nice, atmosphere was great and our waitress Darcy is amazing!

Darcey was just lovely, very friendly and funny. Definitely would recommend the crème brûlée. Would definitely visit again!

Booked a table for a graduation celebration. Could not fault the food or the service. Would recommend for those special occasions when you want make memories.

The was no steak at all, nor chicken schnitzel, nor creme brulé nor rhubarb crumble. It was a graduation celebration and none of the 3 of us got our first choice, even at 18.00. My shepherd's pie wasn't very hot. The server, Frances, was excellent and the venue was very attractive.

Alicia was fantastic! Incredibly bubbly and made our experience personal and friendly without being intrusive.

Browns is a lovely place,but like most needs updating, looking scruffy.the blonde waitress who served us first was very nice, but a dark haired girl took over and was abrupt, no smile, and ignorant.it was 4 0 PM and not busy so.............no need to be like that. We had gift vouchers, and still have some left but not in a hurry to come back.

Always a fabulous night when we have dinner at Brown's. Same level of food and service regardless of location... hope to see you all again

It was fantastic, Travis was brilliant

Beautiful place to chill with family.

So average. Food was really nothing special. Tasteless seafood linguine drenched in olive oil. Overcooked burgers. Staff would clearly rather be elsewhere. Wouldn’t both again.

All round great place for a good sociable meal out!

Very nice afternoon in pleasant surroundings. Good choice of wines. Very efficient staff. Highly recommended. Five stars

Really nice looking venue, only had drinks but imagine it is an upmarket venue of an evening

Was a fun and excellent experience, couldn’t thank the staff enough. They went above and beyond for every need and want for myself and my friends. Will was sensational and couldn’t recommend him enough for future tables. Thank you so much team and we will see you again!

Lety was fantastic, she was so attentive and a great example of how to serve, the food was sensational I couldn’t recommend it any higher.

Great food, great atmosphere, great staff, quality service! Great place for dinner - not to miss if you’re visiting friends or family in Leeds. Wow!

The food was phenomenal, the dishes were unique yet tasty. We had amazing service from our waitress Elisa she was nice and very helpful. Had an absolutely lovely meal

Incredible food and sky was a fantastic waitress! Really cosy and super romantic!

Lovely place. We had come out of the Combined Courts and were celebrating an adoption. Browns was the perfect venue. Highly recommended

Fantastic service. Amazing meal. Best Sunday lunch we have ever had. 5 stars

Went into browns for a work do. The food was really nice and we all enjoyed the meal and drinks. It was a great night and we will definitely be back. Must give a mention to the waitress Frances who was very helpful and answered any question we had regarding ingredients and allergies, she was really polite and a credit to the establishment.

Food was lovely, but the restaurant gets very noisy even though we were dining early evening

Really disappointing experience at Browns. My wife and I went for a cocktail and some side plates and we were disappointed. Service wasn’t great. Food was disgusting to be honest. Ended up leaving it. We won’t be back!

Frankie was great with a larger party. Food was tasty and drinks too. Thanks

Food was of a high standard and catered for the groups allergies and intolerances. There were a number of steps so a phone call may be needed to check on accessibility if you are a wheelchair user.

A great experiences with no complaints, customer service was top with Frances making sure we were comfortable and sorted whilst accommodating any requests whilst we were there, it definitely improved our visit and will certainly be back again!

We had a lovely lunch here the other day! Our waitress Frances was very helpful giving us some lovely food recommendations! Will definitely be returning!

Breakfast at browns was lovely. Friendly service, clean atmosphere 👌

Huge ambient restaurant and bar in central Leeds with reliably good food and pleasant staff.

Alicia is amazing at her job and a really good representation of this restaurant
