What Gator Batton doesn't like about Brown Bear:
Their claim to fame is hamburgers. The burger was good, but I can't class it as above the norm. Service was excellent. This is a bar in a small town so it is filled with local good'ol boys and girls. View all feedback. What Tyler Heaton likes about Brown Bear:
I've been visiting The Brown Bear for a few years now, and even though I live about 25 minutes south, the drive is definitely worth it. I've had many great cheeseburgers, but theirs are among the best. Be sure to try the Bear Burger Supreme; you won't leave hungry! View all feedback.
