Browns Nottingham in Nottingham

A superb afternoon meal, Sarah was very attentive and delivered great service, nothing was too much trouble and she never stopped smiling ! We will be back soon

We came to Nottingham for our nephew's wedding. We haven't been to brown's for a number of years but after our experience of a later night drink on the way to our hotel last night, we happened across Kezron the bartender. A few cocktails later, we booked to eat here tonight. Kezron was just the most affable guy. And tonight, Illias was our server and once again, the service was amazing. Food great etc. But really, these two guys are a credit to Brown's and the company should be delighted to have them in their employ.

Finlay top guy, good food, good night

Browns is meant to be an upscale restaurant. The decor looks great, the food is decent but everything in between is terrible. Table of 5, with young children and it was my wife’s birthday. Sit down and not a single person attends our table to even acknowledge we are there. They took water to a table of 2 that arrived after ours. I asked to make an order twice and was told to wait a minute and yet 15 minutes later no one arrived. I didn’t want to give this restaurant my money seeing as they couldn’t be bothered to recognise our existence let alone take our order. I would avoid this place as they don’t care about their service or customers at all. So many other places close by that do value customer service.

Maja was amazing . Many thanks , Oscar

Finlay was exceptional. Great evening

Great food and service from Finley was excellent.

Superb food and service. Wonderful desserts

Finlay was exceptional Top bloke

Great evening here, with our best friends, we drank VC champagne and sat outside, which was a lovely area. we ordered picky bits to eat and all shared them. Very nice indeed highly recommended.

We came for dinner before a show at the Nottingham Playhouse and even though we didnt have a reservation the team found us a table. Our server Finlay was great for a chat and very helpful, and the food was fantastic. Highly recommend

Lovely breakfast, Reka our server was very attentive, polite and prompt. Would definitely go back.

Cheerful staff. Great dinner, served quickly for a busy Sunday lunchtime. Recommended.

Fabulous breakfast. Our server Fin was attentive, the food quality excellent and served quickly. Would recommend and will be back.

We came as a group for a work dinner. It was OK. The atmosphere is nice and elegant. We were greeted nicely, but the staff stemmed short as ordering took ages. The menu was OK, less effective for Muslims with a limited vegetarian variety. The mains were tasty I had the pea gnocchi with broccoli side (this was delicious esp the sauce). My colleagues has the lobster linguine which looked yummy. For dessert we had a variety and I liked the creme brulee (pictured) . The sticky toffee (pictured) looked great too. Overall was a good experience but I wish it had more veg options or halal ones for dinner.

Champagne afternoon tea was lovely, and our server - Reka - was absolutely delightful!

Finlay was absolutely champion. Made us feel really welcome and looked after us beyond expectations

We had a lovely time Friday night, food and drinks delicious. Thank you to our waitress Anna-Maria for the prompt service, as we had to get to the theatre.

We have dietary requirements and allergies and Browns were really accommodating and made sure we could eat something and felt confident that they would deal with the allergies with care. Our server (Reka) was also the loveliest person and made sure we were well looked after throughout our visit. She also recommended me a Hungarian dessert wine which she was familiar with being Hungarian herself and it did not disappoint! The food was fantastic, the gnocchi dish was outstanding!!

Lovely time with Anna Maria! Highly recommend

Great service and food, we at first thought there wasn't a lot of food but by the end we were both comfortable but not stuffed and thought the quality was good.

Have used Browns for years now. Top service from Dillon today. Good place for meetings, food and beers. Cheers mate.

5 of us decided to head for breakfast so booked here. Really good food , lovely building and the prices were spot on. Great place and we'll surely visit again

Lovely relaxed vibe & ambience Delightful, attentive but not intrusive staff Good menu choices for all members of the group

Really lovely place. Went for a meal before the theatre. The service by our waiter Finley was fantastic, he really looked after us. The food was gorgeous, hot and tasty. We also had a lovely wine with the meal. Couldn't fault the place.

We have become quite the regulars now dining here at least once a month now. Service is always fantastic, 2 members of staff stand out. The wonderful Finlay & Ryan, always greet you with a smile and a friendly welcome. The food is lovely, bring back the belly pork please!! It's worth paying that little bit extra for the setting and service. See you all soon.

Lovely place for enjoyment. Appreciated Reka’s professional and kind service.

Came here for a celebratory meal and had an amazing time. I had the camembert to start, followed by the chateaubriand which was delicious! It comes with fries (not pictured) and onion rings as well as your pick of two sauces. Thought it was a good portion size for a sharer. A great cocktail menu also - thoroughly enjoyed the Tommys Margarita. And the service was amazing throughout the meal!

Food was great. Finlay made us feel welcome and helped us with everything we needed. 10/10 service

Excellent service, very good food.little noisy at lunchtime but overall lovely experience

Beautiful location and great food.

Highly recommend this restaurant, enjoyed the steak. Our host Fermisk was very friendly. Service was great. Thanks for yhe good experience.

Our Saturday evening meal out was served to us by Harrison. He was attentive, took the time to answer questions and made sure we had our drinks replenished. The food was delicious and hot. Thank you, Harrison. Great service.

Came in for Bank Holiday Breakfast this morning. Great Coffee, Food and excellent service from Harrison.

The service was excellent, very attentive with water topped up at the table and waitress recommending a really good meal choice. Pricey but for a celebration definitely worth coming to.

Good fabulous birthday meal service excellent and Finey was terrific thank you

Great food and superb sevice from Finlay.

Excellent food as always, everyone was great especially our server Finn who was very friendly & great character!

Aitch was amazing today and attentive to detail!

Finlay was our server .He was very professional, polite and friendly. I had a meal with my friend we had the Sunday beef dinner which was lovely. The atmosphere was welcoming.i would recommend

Was an excellent meal... SLOW COOKED PORK BELLY absolutely cooked to perfection and the cauliflower cheese was delicious...but best if all was the service. On point. Food arrived promptly and FINLAY our waiter was outstanding. Really a lovely experience having such a cheery, attentive and positive server. Thank you

Another great visit to Browns. Lovely food and wine and great service from Finlay.

Finley was a lovely server. Made us laugh and was very attentive! Thanks!

Visit Browns for special occasions and as a treat and it never fails to deliver good food and service. Yes you pay a premium but it’s worth the visit to get a good experience. Parking is a hassle but that’s an issue with any city centre restaurant. You can park out front and pay for parking via an app or park in the nearby NCP. Service and staff are good and food is off a really good quality. Good range of drinks on the menu and you can also make use of the casual bar at the front.

Very pretty setting, all clean nicely presented. Warm welcome when we entered but the service quickly fell flat, it was a Sunday but not very busy and the staff were very inattentive. Really disappointed. Took about 45mins to get our drinks (tea and an iced coffee) which were nice but I wasn't able to get any refills as there were no staff and no one was checking back on us. The afternoon tea was so small for the price, all the sandwiches were nice and the scones but I could've eaten double that we were served and there was no one around to order anything else. The cakes we not good, fell apart and the icing had congealed on the carrot cakes so really unpleasant texture. Waited about 20mins for the bill and gave up and walked up to the front to pay and stood around for another 5 mins. Not worth the money and I would not go back unfortunately. I had high hopes but really disappointed overall. Would've liked to give feedback in person but no one was around...

Lovely place to go if you're looking for superior service to most other places. Lovely interior design.

Amazing experience and the service by Jack was great!

We went to Browns on a Friday evening for a work outing. We pre-booked as there was 18 in our party & choose our options beforehand. A £10 deposit per head had to be paid. On arrival we were able to have drinks at the bar before being seated. Staff were attentive, asking if more drinks required regularly & offering the option of several tabs if required. I gave the food 4 stars purely because my chicken dish was rather salty, although I did enjoy it. We did the set menu at £26.50 for 2 course & £36.50 for 3 which was brilliant value.

Wow what a fantastic meal. Blown away by the service and quality of the food!

Very nice place with nice friendly service. The food that we had was very nice. Would come again

The food was incredible, I had the pulled lamb shepards pie...I think I've dreamed about it every night since, it was stunning. The building is beautiful with a gorgeous interior as well, it's a bit pricey but seriously worth every single penny. The waitress accommodated my 2 year old wonderfully as well, bringing her dinner early so she could eat whilst we had our starter and bought out her pudding whilst we had our main, it worked perfectly, only thing I could possibly recommend is more "child friendly" glasses, I was terrified she'd smash the cup haha, but that's the only thing I can possibly nit pick!

We booked a table for 2pm and were disappointed when we didn't receive any food for over an hour. Given that we had booked and prepaid with our orders submitted online, we expected our food to be served more promptly. The delay was frustrating and did not meet our expectations for timely service. Food on the other hand was great and we Had no issues there when it arrived

Had a lovely experience there food was excellent

Mike our waiter was superb on a busy excited and joyful Saturday lunch. I love That there is no piped music. The playlist is laughter. And you can listen to your guests.

Afternoon tea - sandwiches were dry. Had been made in the morning and covered with a damp tea towel by 3pm the tea towel must have been bone dry, like the sandwiches. Desserts and jams served in chipped pots which had sharp edges and could harbour germs in the cracks. Manager had a couldn't care less attitude, his answer was we can't keep replacing the pots. Waiter was only good thing

Never had a problem on previous visits. But our last visit just wasn’t up to the standards we have previously experienced

We visited Brown this evening for a meal with loads of children visiting from London from the Evelina . The Restaurant absolutely stunning and beautiful food outstanding the thing that touched my heart the most was the lovely caring waiter called Finley who went out of his way to make my son feel happy and welcome and better about himself being my Alfie hadn’t had a very good morning and was feeling a little unwell. Finley went out of his way to put a smile on my son face . I cannot thank him enough a great young man Thank you brilliant

The three course lunch menu was superb, the hoisin duck salad and smoked salmon starters extremely refreshing, the steak main course cooked to perfection and the desserts filling. For just over £20 a head, this is a bargain. The service was excellent if a little slow, but I suspect that the team was not at full complement on the day we were there. It also felt a little more like a business venue, but lunch on a weekday is going to see more business customers in any case. I have never been to Brown's in Nottingham before, but I shall definitely be going back!

super helpful & considerate staff, great food and atmosphere. Went for afternoon tea and it was lovely!

What should have been a positive experience turned out not be enjoyable. The onion rings were cold as were the fries. We did complain about the 16 oz steak which looked like 10 oz but were assured the steak was 16 oz. We order five dessert and only got four. The food arrived late for both the mains and dessert ( we bypassed the starters - just as well). However on a positive note the manager did give us a £44 discount ( took of the service charge, two waters and dessert). Overall poor food and definitely poor service. This is not something I expected from this chain of restaurants.

Fantastic service, lovely atmosphere. Staff were amazing. Food was fantastic and can’t fault the drinks. Great time

Fabulous food and drink in a very pleasant atmosphere

Amazing food! Kind and welcoming staff!

Great service, great food, great atmosphere - thank you to our server Reka!!

Appalling experience which ruined our evening celebrating my daughter’s graduation. We will never visit Browns again. Update 24.7.24: despite you saying you have replied to my previous email no email has been received.

Always a nice meal and enjoyable experience at Browns

We had a graduation celebration meal for our daughter. The food was fabulous and our daughter was made to feel very special. Would recommend.

Amazing service! Ryan was an amazing sever for mine and my friend graduation meal! Lovely character and a key asset to the company! Looked after us amazingly!!

Presentation of the afternoon tea was lovely. The male member of staff who served us what very pleasant and helpful. Some of the cake was stale and it transpires was delivered frozen and not made fresh on site, which was a disappointment. Other members of staff were cold and unhelpful.

Lovely ambience and friendly staff. We were seated within 15 minutes as walk ins and had a very tasty 2 course lunch. Could you tell me if the black seeds on the duck and watermelon salad were Nigella or black sesame seeds please? I forgot to ask the waiter!

We come here a couple of times a year to visit our daughters at Uni. Always reliable, great food and atmosphere. Sarah our server was incredible, accommodating our slightly fussy needs, brilliant, thank you

Fab food and very friendly staff

An emotional risotto& seabass, which was truly superb. Unfortunately, the sirloin was an absolutely horrendous cut of meat that was communicated without consideration from the establishment. Regards, Antonio

Came in for mine and my girlfriend 2 year anniversary and where served by Anna-Marie both time and it was amazing, lovely food/drinks and a very personal service 👍👍

Graduation dinner - excellent venue

Lovely environment to meet with friends and family over a tasty meal.

Extraordinary restaurant with an above-average atmosphere, with high quality food, excellent service, extremely friendly staff.

Loved it all, decor, food, great staff, lunch menu is great value.

Our waitress was so kind and lovely. I liked my little note, staff were smiling and happy and just great food, drinks. Bit expensive but nice treat with my voucher to spend £50, get £25 off. Food was great, and drinks.

Service from Simon was exceptional! Steak was really nice 🎉

Simon our serve was a luvly man and the food was 10.10, will be back again soon💐

Fantastic venue in a great area of Nottingham. Friendly professional staff offer a lovely dining experience that will want you going back time and time again

Just popped in for a drink before a show. Was a very bad smell in there ( like the drains) glad I wasn't eating.

Good traditional English food Nice place, nice staff Advised

We were delighted with the desserts we ordered. The waitress (Maja) was extremely kind and made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

Very uncomfortable chairs, so loud and noisy could not have a decent conversation. Please do not have a pianist plug in the sound system it makes it worth. Too Loud. Just being honest with my personal opinion. Will not return.had to change my rating as been unwell, few hours after my meal and this AM still on going.just need to had been sick all day and its not finished so VERY UNHAPPY WITH THIS PLACE. 😤

Great - friendly, warm service. Surf and turf meal was fab. Mocktails very tasty. Improve - I sat alone for 20 mins while waiting for my friend to arrive. I wasn’t offered a drink order, and couldn’t get anyone’s attention they were too busy setting tables and never looked up. Cocktail orders took too long. Gnocchi main was too small for a main. Broccoli side was poor value in amount for the price.

Did not eat here, just had a coffee but a very nice place to be. Menu looked good so will try the food next time.

It’s been a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I’m an old Browns customer and returning after a long hiatus. Please to say that the food has not lost any of its quality. Well done and a special thank you to our waiter Jack, who was very attentive!

Lovely as always, but smaller portions ! Left still hungry I'm afraid !

Been for an afternoon tea and a dinner and been very pleased both times. Great service, great food!

i came here on friday for some food with my partner, we were served by christina who was lovely and her service was perfect. we had the lobster which was our first time trying it and it was lovely, it was quite expensive but it was to be expected for the food and service that we received. would definitely recommend coming here :)

Very mixed experience. Loved the vibe and the service and great menu. However, the food was not consistent. For the most part it was very good and worthy of the cost. But, one of our party had the fish and chips and it was really not good. The fish was oily and the chips were clearly frozen, not made fresh and, overall, was not an enjoyable meal. It's a shame because it's not a budget restaurant and all dishes should be consistently good. Worth a visit but avoid the fish and chips, not good and not worth the cost.

Great food and service .ilyas service was very professional and he catered for all our requirements

Lovely place for a Sunday meal. Food was delicious and the service was great. The lamb was the best lamb I've had and red wine jus was really tasty.

Amazing Gluten Free menu, safe for Coeliacs. Delicious food!

A fantastic Meal staff were excellent. As a coeliac always worry when eating out but this place knocked it out the park. Can't wait to come back again

Fantastic evening at browns made by Reka’s service. Super friendly and accommodating. Will be returning !

The service was excellent and the food was great. I was alone and just wanted a quiet lunch and a glass of wine...but the place was very loud with Hen Parties 🥳. Not what I expected...shame!

First visit in a while. Food was great as was the service. Busy, bustling atmosphere. Shout out to Petya. Looked after us and super friendly 😊 Recommend the Miso Salmon. Lovely.
