We had a lovely evening at Browns Pie Shop. We booked our table for 8.30, we waited approx 25 minutes for service, but had a drink and found the atmosphere very relaxing. We were down in the cellar, but it was fine. The girls serving were very friendly. We were glad we had booked as it was Friday night. I... more

Went here on someones recommendation, all i can say about it really was that it was ok, nothing bad but nothing special , should be as its not cheap for basically a pie! No real atmosphere downstairs, was cramped in a small corner. Much better places to eat more

This review is a little late as ate at Browns pre christmas 2008. for the first time. Heard good reviews previous to this. It was a christmas party paid for by the company I worked for, so I've been reluctant to give this negative review, until now. I no longer work for the same company so here goes...Cramped.

I really didn't like this place. The mushroom starter was just that - a mushroom for £6.25 and the vegetable pie comprised mostly tomato puree, which the last time I checked wasn't a vegetable, and not quite cooked potato.

Browns is somewhere that we keep coming back too as it's always a good place that has a wonderful seasonal menu. When you book a table they will inform you if your tale is pre-booked or will be rebooked after you. Tonight meal I was told we have the table from 7.30 to 9.30 - plenty of time for a... more

I visited for dinner with my wife 6th April. After the walk up Steep Hill you deserve some substantial food and this is the place to get it. Actually we had walked for 30 minutes from the other side of town so we were even more deserving. We came to look at all the restaurants in Bailgate and had decided... more

The pies are great here but the place is in danger of becoming a creche. Last time I visited the woman on the next table breast fed her baby and then proceded to change its nappy at the table. The waitresses didn't bat an eyelid, but it quite put me off my lunch. Other times the place has also been... more
