A little disappointed with Brown's Cardiff. Twice I've been and twice I've been let down with the cocktails. Asked for a classic vodka martini and wasn't asked how I like it. When it came it was very unwhelming, unlike a true Vodka Martini. Brown's St Martin's Lane, how I miss thee.

Let's start with the positives: excellent, prompt and attentive table service and a wonderful receptionist. Now the atmosphere: the presence of an actual bar, which was crowded and very noisy, removed any possibility of quiet enjoyment of my lunch. Finally the food: the fish pie was bland and uninteresting and the soggy mess masquerading as a scallop was an insult to the palette. My creme brulee was little more than a bowl of cold custard with blow-torched sugar on top. Clearly rushed. Overall, I can't recommend this restaurant, certainly not when it is very busy.

Food I decided to have the smoked salmon with scrambled eggs , added 2 sausages , sausages looked like they had been sitting around for a while, dry and tasteless the rest was just ok , not what I expected.

FOOD POISINING AND NO RESPONSE FROM MANAGEMENT After the meal, my partner woke up in the middle of the night violently ill with food poising, throwing up raw meat from the meal at Browns. Given the nature of the experience, we promptly contacted Browns to raise the issue and seek some understanding. Unfortunately, our attempts to communicate, have been met with silence. This lack of response from a reputable restaurant chain is disappointing and concerning for the blatant lack of regard they have for food safety from their radio silence. This incident raises serious questions about your commitment to customer safety and responsible communication. Ignoring legitimate concerns about food poisoning speaks volumes about your priorities.

I have become somewhat of a regular at Browns, Cardiff. I cannot praise it enough! The bar staff are so friendly and cheery. They are polite and nothing seems like too much bother for them. Cocktails are great (I've sampled quite a few). My fave? The Espresso Martini, they do it so well here. The manager is often seen flitting about, ensuring smooth running of the area, but is never too busy to stop with a smile to say hello. Atmosphere here is always great. It's very relaxed but with a real good buzz. I could go on, but instead I urge you to experience Browns for yourself - You wont be sorry!
