What Ali a doesn't like about Brown Bag:
I have visited this restaurant twice, both times before the pandemic. The quality of the food was decent, the restaurant was clean, and the service was average. During my first visit for breakfast, I was the only customer and ordered an omelette that was priced at over $8, without any beverages. On my second visit for lunch, the restaurant was a little crowded and I encountered two issues this time: the price was hig... View all feedback. What J T likes about Brown Bag:
Sandwiches are fine but bowls are more worth it. Love the food. Nice and simple once you understand how to order. You don't just approach the register.

Brown Bag offers a varied dining experience, reflecting both promise and disappointment. While some patrons praise the delicious sandwiches and noteworthy breakfast options, others criticize the inconsistent quality and inflated prices, particularly for salads. Service appears to fluctuate—some describe helpful staff, while others report a lack of warmth and attentiveness. Despite its potential, many lament the declining standards and question the establishment's longevity. With a simple ordering process and a casual atmosphere, Brown Bag remains a choice for the adventurous diner but may leave more discerning guests searching for alternatives.
