Eat . Drink . Repeat ... Browns Socialhouse is dedicated to the art of presenting exceptional cuisine in our own stylish and unique setting. We’d like to think we simplify the dining experience, integrating fresh food and cheerful service in a relaxed environment. Our customers tell us that Browns makes them feel comfortable, relaxed and at home. This is no coincidence, it is the foundation of the term “Socialhouse”. For us Browns is more than a restaurant, it is a place to be welcomed, remembered and indulged, with a standard for service and food that will leave you feeling exceptional and satisfied, every time.
I ordered from Skip The Dishes and when I received my order the side I ordered and paid extra for was wong. I called and the manager, Sasha, I think handled it so well that I after getting off the phone I felt appreciated and truly valued as a customer
We enjoy a lunch once a month with my son and me. The service is amazing. They understand my situation and attend to my sons comfort and needs and makes it so nice to eat feeling comfortable.
I recieved a gift card for help another out, the person I help offered to take my wife and I out to a restaurant. Well weeks went by and eventually the person asked, which restaurants would you and your wife like to go. Well Browns Social House was our 1st choice. Well two days later the person drops off this gift card ($100). Much thanks for work and help you for me. So the my wife Belinda& I Daryl finally had time for us both to get out. We went out to Browns Social House in Fort St. John We had one fantastic evening out thanks to everyone of the staff at Browns Social House Fort St. John Sunday December 1, 2024 The food was awesome 👌 I can't remember what it was all called off the menu, only because the atmosphere and staff were all just as great. Thank you so much for a fantastic evening out Browns FSJ. You all did a fabulous job 👏 ❤️ Host, Servers, Chef, Dishwashers, and whom ever looks after the Bathrooms, Manager ! 👏 When the bill came my heart said this needs to go forward this gift card is special so PAY IT FORWARD. Merry Christmas to all! Cheers 🍻 👏 We will be back. 😊 Daryl& Belinda
We ended up sitting at the bar because the place had a bunch of events and booked parties. Normally I like to sit at the high tables by the windows. 🤔wonder if you could fit more of those in there? Anyway, Danni was working the bar and mixing drinks. Holy! We were so impressed at her mixing Caesars and custom “ranch waters” and all the other things in record speeds. As she worked, she never stopped chatting and entertaining us throughout. It was a great performance and so it really is most days. There’s always a top notch waitress serving (Like Brittany or Michelle) and there’s always consistently great food. It’s the only place to be in FSJ! Good work team!
The food was served hot, and the flavors were on point. The consistency from restaurant to restaurant at this franchise is admirable. Their burgers could use a rethink, but almost everything else is done just right. This particular location seems to be well managed. Our group was pleased with the customer experience. Staff here are on the ball. A glass never sits empty. They all work together to ensure a well-rounded experience.
Good service here, but the food wasn't very good. Calamari was very bland and served with Dill sauce, which isn't a bad thing but tzaziki would be much better. The chicken bowl had no sauce and the chicken was dry. The dry ribs were great and seasoned nicely. The hot wings had very little sauce as well. Looked like everything had sat under the salamander heater for way too long.
Ok, I found my new favorite drink here! Watermelon Mint Gimlet! I'm visiting & was not sure where to eat, so came here, cuz I know the menu. Had the Blacken Chicken Cowboy Salad, outstanding!! Way to go FSJ! Cuz I stayed so long, ordered the little nachos, yummy!
Not a bad place at all. The food appears to be good with a wide variety of options. There is a good selection of drinks and cocktails. The manager appears to care and will come to the table and ask you how your dining experience is. It has a really good patio that can also be used in some smaller winter situations with an outdoor fireplace I would definitely come back and I have come back multiple times
Loved the lettuce wraps!
Good solid place to eat. Its a good chain with a decent menu.
We chose Browns to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary with your take out service so we good celebrate it in the comfort of our home. The food was excellent as usual and we thoroughly enjoyed it , thanks Parking: Parking was available near by.
Not very customer oriented..piss poor options on food thumbs down
Super
Great time
Denise was the best server ever, we loved her!
Denise was the best!! Such a sweet and kind soul, such a great experience!
Denise was and always is the best server I ll ever have at browns!! She is amazing:)
Denise gave us an incredible experience tonight! Top notch service and the food was great
Good food. Good service. Going here for 5 years. Consistency goes a long way. Keep up the great work! Food
Don t bother going if you want to watch a game. They have 20 TVs, but they all show the same thing, not setup to show more than one channel. Plus they only have local sports channels. Side note, what happened to the salt and pepper on the table
Ladies r awesome
Food was good but they take alot of time to serve to our table
Staff ia always friendly and good has been great every time
Food I marked a 4 because I havent received my new plate. As you can see in my email I own a boston pizza and like my cooks do sometimes my pasta was watered down because they didnt drain it properly. All I wanted was a side of Alfredo but your manager who is phenomenal brought me a new steak and pasta. I am a 20 year restauranter at 40 years old and I would have done the exact same thing but, you dont see that very often anymore but I can say I was blown away by Sashan not sure if that is spelled right but he was a stud. If you. Ant keep him give him my email I would hire that guy in a heartbeat!
Staff is amazing, atmosphere is great and the prices are unbeatable. 10/10
Food was OK. Server was great.
Very busy place, friendly .
Very nice happy hour, food was delicious, nice atmosphere and service.
Not bad experience just there ceaser salad was so gross not sure what they use for dressing but I wanted to puke
I left these restaurant sad and hungry. The 16.99 loaded nachos is the equivalent and spending nearly 20 dollars on plain chips. Someone should inform Browns Social House that cheese is an ingredient on nachos
Always good service, beer and food
$26. Insanity. Could have had a bigger bun. Fries are soggy! We have given this place SO many chances and continue to disappoint.
Great food, great service.
Im here for work quite often. Its in walking distance of my hotel.(Ramada) To be honest, the food is okay same as every other browns, service is good. They do not play the volume for any hockey games Even during the playoffs, which is very disappointing. Food : 3/5
Their veggie burger is the best Ive ever had! Its juicy and delicious and gives you the full burger experience! The nachos are great too. The staff are also excellent. But if its busy, and youd like to have a conversation, I would recommend the patio.
Whats good for the most part. the food was tasty. Service was a little bit scattered. Bit loud but I am probably just old.
Service was excellent! Appetizers were great, but food was just OK. Ordered a steak and pasta - steak was tough and overcooked, and the pasta was a bit dry. Overall, though, was a positive experience.
I showed up here once. And I was completely shocked. It was a fully operating bar with food.
Good place.
Very nice place, with good music at a good sportbar style volume. Very good atmosphere. The food is very tasty and of good quality. Reasonable prices. The attention is excellent
I am editing my review I was greated by the manager last night with an apology for my experience that night. And I have of course come back and not had the one time experience I had that night. Browns will continue to be my favourite place in town to come relax watch a game and have some good food and good drinks and good service. Thank you and for the record the fried chicken Ramen is the best ever!!!!
Great service! Great food! Definitely a good place to catch up/ hangout with friends. ^Edited - my previous review was about a bad experience through skip. But the dine in experience was good. Food
The service is personal and it feels like home...
Food
Ive been to many Browns Social houses in Western Canada. This one here has given me some of the best service Ive experienced and always matches the great food Ive come to expect from a Browns Social house. Although Ive gone to many other restaurants in Fort St. John this one has consistently been fantastic since it opened.
Skip wouldn t let us correct our review on missed items (skips mistake) upon phoning Browns Social house they were very quick to personally deliver the missing items quickly! we are regulars at this location as often as we can they are always excellent! definitely prefer in house dining but they are awesome
Ok place to meet up with friends. Everything was good. Nothing was great.
Service was so good!!!
Food was hot and delicious. I really enjoy the cowboy salad. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free was followed
Was super disappointed in the service took 4ever to get our drinks as we watched 4servers doin nothing we even asked another server if she could get our drinks seeing how the bar was directly behind her she went and told our server and we had to wait another 10mins. but food was delicious
No doubt, One of the best places. But I wasn t impressed with my last visit. Went there for my Fiancé s birthday dinner with friends and family. It took pretty long to get our appetizers. Server took their own sweet time to come and get our mains order. When our mains arrived one of the dishes were cold. Our server did take it off our check but the whole experience was just disappointing.
Friendly staff and delicious food. Vegetarian options: We had vegetarian option and they were pretty good.
Delicious food and friendly staff. Actually I enjoy too much. Every was so clean and pleasant. It has warm and nice space. Just we have to wait for salt for several minutes.
Visited this place twice, food is always awesome though price has gone up since last time we were there but the service was amazing
Quick and speedy from order to finish. Very professional thank you
Once you have been to one browns you have been to them all
Amazing people serving amazing food that tastes great, always hits the spot, comes out fast, hot and delicious!!!! Definitely will be back again and again!!
Our AC/DC Tribute band called Rock or Bust wants to thank Jesse and his crew for providing us with a dinner and an excellent experience dining in Fort St John when we are on the road!!... Hope to be back and see you again for sure!!.. Thank you so much!!..
Great friendly staff
Great food. Wonderful staff
Ha ha, this what what you get for $26 fish and chips...
Best Fish and Chips I have ever had in my life. I have had many from all over the place.
Jack is the best!! So attentive and has hands down the best customer service ever ! Highly recommend this restaurant <3
I had the blackened chicken Caesar salad. It was OK, but service was meh! The greeter was friendly and cheerful, but I sat at the bar and the bartender did not want to be bothered with a food order. Actually, they didn t seem that interested in their job at all. Too bad. I regularly dine at Browns in FSJ and DC - food is usually better than the service, although I have had good experiences as well.
I ordered the Tuna poke bowl and what I got was basically a cilantro and red pepper salad, which was terrible. Not the first time the menu description didnt match the dish.
Browns always a great place to visit and eat food. Always have good sports on.
Very good!! The food Is delicious!!
Bla same ole same ole
Delicious food. Great ambiance on the patio. Food
Its OK. Nothing fantastic but its decent.
Pretty good after a long day of work and especially when the weather is pretty warm..
Great burger, beer and service!
What a disappointment. Took a friend from out of town thinking it would be best brunch in town. My toast eggs and bacon were all cold. My daughters breakfast was also cold. We watched as Patons who came in after us be served first. Than they did us a big favor of only charging 50 percent of our uneaten breakfast bill. I wont go back.
We came last night to fort st john from dawson creek . We decide to have a dinner in brown social but i think i have worst experience of my life waiting for food more than 50 mins then we end up with paying for drink and leave the place Not coming back in future worst service ever
Always an oasis of friendliness and great service while driving up the Alaska Highway!
2nd time in 2 weeks. Browns does not disappoint.
Had the fish n chips. I m pretty fussy about my FnC s. I was pleasantly surprised, it was excellent. Great service as well.
Good food
Good tasting food but it is very loud in there
Although the pasta noodle was a bit overcooked, everything was pretty good. I really liked the thickness of the fries as well.
They sent me the wrong order on skip the dishes and i had a very hard time getting the proper order. I ended up just going down to the restaurant in person to collect the order after telling the manager 3 times my adress over 3 different phone calls. Apparently a pen and paper doesnt exist in that world.
Diana was amazing.
Vegetarian options: Lots of selection Food
Great ambiance and customer service, youll love their dragon bowl!
Appreciate the service and atmosphere. Good food as always, even though weve only been to Browns in Vancouver. FSJ rivals those for sure.
Enjoyable location for lunch the meal was delicious!
Great place. Catered to everything. Had a long distance video chat with the wife, inside had a great atmosphere but to loud to listen over speaker. They set us up on the patio, alone and turned the heat on for us. Great experience and we will never forget it. Go to this place for memorable experiences
Friendly place and great service.
Good food options to choose from, enjoyed my afternoon here. I usually get their Crispy Chicken Sandwich and Im never disappointed
good location.good food.grt service, have only been there for lunch . Now have met 2 great servers there, always go there for lunch when im there
The burger was great, very flavourful!
Very bad service. During the two minutes we saw her she rolled her eyes and was very rude. When the food came out she had forgot to mod it correctly and whoever ran our food was very rude about that as well. We had another server come after we all finished eating to ask how everything was tasting and finally clear our drinks. She only chatted with us a little bit while we were paying our bills.
Awesome service even at the busiest times
Always good food, service, price is reasonable
Food is always consistently good drink service is a little slow place could used some better cleaning
The girls working there are always amazing and helpful. The food is yumm as well.
I ordered a take out order for the road. Courteous, friendly staff and my order was prepared as requested on time. A bit inconvenient to get to because of the construction which is not their fault but good parking made up for the inconvenience.
Great food. Service was okay
Foods always good, always a great atmosphere.
Browns social house catered a wedding I was at and the food was amazing, they did a wonderful job. Definitely recommend them.
Loved the food. Staff was absolutely fabulous. Delicious cocktails. Great place to eat and relax after a long day on the road
Had the best time after a long drive. The atmosphere was chill and the food great
Parking: Many
Great food, great service!
Im not a usual customer for this place but I will say that they have some amazing signature cocktails!!! And awesome servers.
Great service and the food is amazing!
Great spot friendly staff great service
The new assistant manager is incredible! He s Hard working and never stops.
Good looking waitresses and cold beers Cant go wrong
Overall good experience. Ordered the poke bowl and it was delicious like always. Service can be slow at times especially on Friday evening
1st timer here, and am in love with their poke bowl. TASTY Calamari appetizer could use more flavoring, otherwise its bland without the dipping. Garlic fries was good. Mimosa needs more alcohol in it, too weak, as if I was drinking just a glass of orange juice. Sangria was just okay, nothing special. I got the Brown one, with red wine. A jar of cheesecake for $10 was MEH Not worth it. Service was top notch, though, and the washroom is clean and pretty!
Great waitress and food
Nice place, cozy little fire place sitting area. Young crowd and friendly outgoing staff.
worst place to go to food was burnt do not eat here
I ve been all around Canada, surely i missed some spot but those Calamari !! Cannot wait to go back
Alexandria was a great server today. She was extremely attentive and friendly. I will definitely be back because of her service. She knows the menu very well and provided wonderful suggestions when I was struggling with making a choice. Such a wonderful server!
Every time I am here I have a lovely time. Great staff, great food that will accommodate allergies, great drinks.
The bar staff are great Ive been in a couple of times and they know me by name and what drink the food is great and its pretty quick service even when its busy Props to Danie s. Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free and vegetarian options Parking: Good amount of parking Wheelchair accessibility: Full wheel chair accessible
Dani S at the bar is such a lovely, and friendly bartender. When I come in, and see that someone else is working the bar (because she s at home in her time off with her family,) I feel a little disappointed, because she is so positive, and really cares about making your experience enjoyable.
Busy lunch good service good food.
Very nice atmosphere, polite staff and great service. Food was enjoyable and server was ontop of the beverages. Thank you for a wonderful night out.
Excellent food!
Great food and service
Good place to chill.
Service was a bit slow to start, which is abnormal, theyre usually pretty good. Food was amazing as always.
Nice place too visit
I love going here, I have a good experience everytime
Love the Social Hound. Good service too.
Great place, small food menu. Happy hour is perfect, and the staff are very friendly
Went out for the first time in a long while, due to Covid. Restaurant was clean, barriers in place, lines on floors. Seating was quick. Drinks were served quickly, food was served quickly, problem with one meal was quickly corrected. Staff wore masks. Food was awesome. Staff was awesome. Excellent experience. It is nice to dine out in public again. Thank you Browns Social House Fort Saint John. We will be back.
Fish and chips were excellent...good apples too
Awesome. That is all, just Awesome.
Calimari was overcooked. Dragon bowl tasted of dish detergent. Waitress was rudely gossiping about other customers over our shoulders calling them alcoholics ruining our dining experience. Brought it up to the manager, who denied it through her teeth! Unacceptable
Great food, great service! And let our dog on the outside patio:)
Food was excellent Service was excellent What you ask more
Beer, junk food and good vibes. What more could you want?
Good food and drinks, nice variety in the menu. Staff is always friendly, I would eat here again!
Excellent food and staff.
Great food and service as always. Even with their POS system down service was quick and friendly.
Best ever
Food was good but the atmosphere was not what we were looking for that night, not that there was anything wrong with it, just not the atmosphere we were looking for. Our problem not Browns.
Covid restrictions are gone, and Browns is still one of the nicest places to eat in Fort St. John. Tried the Cowboy chicken tonight. It was terrific. The wonton Soup is great, try the tuna roll. The calamari is also a great appy. Any of the burgers are really good as well. The meal choices are on the healthier side. Not a lot of greasy food choice. Oh yea and the staff are great as well.
Food is great. Large portions. Nice waitress gave us a discount when she found out it was our anniversary. Never asked.
Great food and service.
Wonderful service enjoyed very much
Excellent service, drinks and appetizers- but sadly a really overcooked steak.
Great spot in fsj. Always a good service
Great food good service
Ate here twice in three days, both times had the lettuce wraps. Chili oil was banging!
Cozy restaurant and welcoming team. The prices are fair and the burgers are excellent. I recommend
Best place in FSJ
good hygene and service
Friendly staff and good service
I know it was only take out but had to be the worst food Ive eaten in town and im born and raised
