Never thought I'd be writing this because I always recommended this Mary Browns as the best in NL, but after my last two visits, I'm dropping it down to 4 stars. There was absolutely no seasoning on the taters the last two times we came here. No flavour and undercooked :(

So disappointed last evening with this location, the food was absolutely terrible, in my opinion it was reheated. I asked for one wing with my two piece order was told we don't have any, really Mary Brown's!!! I did voice my opinion on the food when asked and the lady offered me a pudding. It was a complete waste of $35.86!! And yes I have addressed this on your [email protected] site.

This is the best Mary brown's we have tried..it's never greasy like many other places.the staff are of the hook kind each time we go there.i live I few different Mary brown's places away. .they have the best chicken around. I drive a nice distance from home to get my meals, when I told the ladies working there I drive this distance.they didn't find that strange and said we have ppl come from further.. which didn't surprise me. Five stars and thumbs for sure thumbs.stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍👍👍👍👍

I know what youre thinking every mary browns is the same but its not and coming from a amateur but enthusiastic eater I should know but this one seems lighter and less greasey than the rest and im not a grease hater but like myself a little goes a long way.the food is however outclassed by the staff who were fast,funny and couldent be nicer,definitely will be back.

A quintessentially Newfoundland favorite for those craving the tasty deep fried meals and snacks on the menu ... with local selections of cold salads and desserts ..... served up fast and with a friendly smile. Vegetarian options: Cold salads and coleslaw options available for those who prefer the vegetarian option Dietary restrictions: Probably not the place to go for those with very restrictive dietary needs e.g. gluten-free. Parking: Free parking spaces in front of the store. Kid-friendliness: Plenty of inside dining space for the whole family Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible and more than ample/flexible inaide dining space to accommodate.

This Mary browns at splash and putt is under staffed to handle the number of patrons that visit here. Causing very long lines in the small store all crammed in it We also had some quality issues , chicken sandwiches that were VERY tiny batter cooked to crisp. No one with us enjoyed lunch. And I think others around us were feeling the same way. If I had my time back I probably would have just packed a sandwich lunch instead.

Tends to be less greasy than KFC with their seasoning not as peppery. The tatters and chicken was excellent, but best to have on rare occasions as its not a healthy meal. This one was first in over 5 years for me, which may have influenced my experience: best fried Chicken I had in ages. Service was quick and view over holyrood harbour was nice. Wed go again.

When in Newfoundland, try Mary Browns. We have never been before and didnt know what to get. The staff guided us to some favourites and they did not disappoint. The chicken was crispy and not greasy like KFC, we will be back.

Good food and staff. Small dining room. They are open till 10pm, however and if you go in @ 830-9pm you end up having to wait for at least 15 minutes for food. I guess if its not busy, they dont cook anything and have it waiting, but they really should, even if its a slow night. Either that or close earlier imo.
