Chill restaurant & bar with elevated takes on pub fare such as burgers & classic cocktails
I've tried so hard to like browns but it's just frustrating disappointment after frustrating disappointment. Try calling for a take out order and the recorded message tells you to go online. Go online and you have no selection to pay when you pick up. Not to mention it automatically adds a 15% tip until you go back and select no tip. Finally get through to place an order and I ask for cutlery and napkins in the bag. Pick up the order and no cutlery or napkins. This has happened multiple times. Then there is the food. The rice in the cod bowl is always burnt on the bottom. The Cajun chicken cowboy salad has a ridiculously tiny sad piece of chicken. Like 2 mcdonalds nuggets are about the same amount of chicken. I'm over it, browns used to be decent a couple of years ago but it has gone way downhill and it's way overpriced for the quality of food and the portion sizes. Its not inedible so I won't give only 1 star, but it's the low end of mediocre at best.
I decided to have a quick bite before work, only instead of getting my food in about 10 minutes, it was taking around 30!!!! The waiter said it's been a really off day, and was very apologetic. I ended up having to take my food to go. The waiter more than made up for the inconvenience, and it's honestly his great service and friendly face that'll bring me back here. Those chicken tenders though.... to DIE FOR!!! My only complaint (other than the unusually long wait),was that 1 dipping sauce is not enough for 3 tenders!!!
We recently visited Browns in Langley centre and had THE most incredible, hand-breaded chicken strips that were part of their new chef’s corner menu. It’s been a long time since I’ve been left speechless by a meal, and these strips were worth every penny. Our server, Benjamin was awesome and made the entire experience a 10/10. Would recommend everyone head to Browns Langley to try this new menu item!
First of all, service was amazing. Our servers were kind and attentive, so thank you for that. The food was delicious, but I have to say very overpriced for what it is. The portions are very small for the price, and the ingredients do not justify the cost. Even for 2024, I just don't believe it's worth it. Secondly, the music is just too loud. It's called a social house. In any case, people were nice and food was good but I likely won't be back.
Love the food! We ordered a burger (forgot what kind) and dynamite roll sushi. All tasted so great! Love the yam fries🥰🥰 this is my favorite one. It's just too crowded. We will try to come during weekdays next time😎
Music and atmosphere was mellow and upbeat, the service was polite and friendly even though she forgot the cauliflower we ordered but it all worked out, and the food was tasty and fresh. I would definitely eat there again 😊💫💫💫💫💫 5 stars.
Post Golden Ears Hike Happy Hour. Ordered all the happy hour items and couldn't be more satisfied. The ambiance does justice to the name - social. There are multiple screens throughout. This location also has a porch seating with a fireplace. Parmesan Garlic Fries 🍟 Fiesta Fries 🔥 Crispy Yam and Avocado Roll 🍣 Chips and Guac 🥑 Crispy Cauliflower 🥦 Spicy Fried Chicken and Pickles 🥒
Awesome cocktails and super yummy French dip! Perfect Staff! Update: never disappoints me! Super nice staff! The cowboy salad was exotic! They comped the burger and fries as it took them a bit longer to serve our meal! Will definitely come back🤩
So so so dissatisfied with how abysmal our service was tonight. Every moment with our server was like being the scum under her fingernails. Love browns as a chain but I m unsure about whether I ll come to this location again.
Great food and service. Background music too loud for easy conversation.
We are huge fans of Browns in general, with Langley Centre being our favourite location! Our recent visit was even more of a treat with the wonderful attention we got from Abbie! She always remembers us and checks in on us, but this visit we were there with friends and she went above and beyond to make us feel special!
The staff is very well trained. Rebecca did a really good job. She was very kind and polite. The food was delicious and the service was amazing.
Jamie is quite literally the best server I ve ever had, she makes the world a better place! She is so kind, attentive, and hilarious!! Food and atmosphere are also wonderful.
Had dinner hear with all of my siblings recently. Id booked a reservation. So there was no problem getting our seating. Food was great and ambience was great. The only thing Id say is that their music is often way too loud. We found ourselves having to yell just to hear the person sitting directly across of us. They were really good and turned it down a little when I asked about it.
Excellent Saturday night!!! The attention and the dishes are very delicious. Parking: No problem.
Service is very spotty prices are going up amount of food is going down. Ive been to this place more times than I can think over many years. They changed the size of their wine glasses recently along with changing times of happy hour ect ect ect because they dont give a crap about their customers. Why! Because they know with the massive population growth in Langley theyll have lots of customers. Im done! Oh and dont forget the shooting in their parking lot! The management is obviously a joke!
Great food. Awesome happy hour. Never disappointed.
Great food, terrible service. Would not recommend, just go to Milestones.
Not a bad place. Decent food. Service was quick and better than other locations I have visited by Browns
Awesome and pleasant place to eat.
Great service and great food.
bad bad bad bad bad
Great restaurant. Youll be hard pressed to get better food and service at this price point.
Pricey and the menu were not the ones I expected to be like in other restaurants. Not my favourite place to dine.
Always go here when not wanting to cook. Always clean and food is great
We eat at Browns regularly in Langley and in Vernon - both locations are great
Non existent management. I should start this with the fact that I was suppose to receive a credit for an incorrect take out order since 2022 and to this day, nothing. Haven t been there since as I refused as due to the last incident which was incorrect meals. We had a giftcard so we went in and clearly hasn t improved. Cold calamari and small portions of chicken. Won t be coming back and would a response from Taylor S really be so much to ask for? She also lied and said she called me and spoke to my husband..as a unwed woman, I had to arugue with her that she didn t lol!
Brown s Socialhouse in Langley was a hit! The Dragon Bowl was delicious, and my friend s bacon cheeseburger was awesome. The drinks were great too. Definitely going back!
Food was incredible and their customer service was really good
Great place and wonderful dining experience
Way to expensive
I am very happy with the food & service. Katie works very hard & fast with a nice smile !
Great service and excellent food
I love their salads and get them quite frequently. My fiancé went there yesterday to pick up an order and was super uncomfortable when the server asked why we didn t tip. This would be the only reason why we don t go back, we don t normally tip on orders we pick up. We always tip generously when we dine in. Customer should not be put on a spot like that. It cost us over $50 for 2 salads we love. I couldn t believe that the waitress would ask for a tip on a takeout order. Very unprofessional. We are insulted.
Me and my business partner went there around 430pm on tuesday, the restaurant was empty so we had a nice booth, and at first the service was good, we had a couple of the happy hour lagers, and to be honest they made both of our stomachs very upset after we left the restaurant. Didn t finish our last beer. The beer seemed off like it had gone bad. Would expect more from a high end restaurant like browns.
Cheerful staff, food is always good. The calamari is excellent. Fast service.
Parking: Shares spots with the plaza Food
I was here for a friends birthday party and I ended up coming a bit late and the sever was quick to get me and my girlfriends food in, but our drinks took forever and it was had to get ahold of the server. We had our group of 20 on the patio and they put us all at tables of 4 instead of making a large table or 2 big tables, there was plenty of room for the servers to get around it seemed very silly.
Delicious burger on lettuce instead of a bun. I loved every juicy bite of it. Our waitress was the best!
Browns is a great restaurant always good food can not say enough good things about them
Always love the food in this restaurant
Tried new chicken meal, unfortunately unable to finish it. The vegetables were burnt.
Best gravy in town, fish tacos...also fantastic.
My favorite place every since they opened . Great people and great food and great service !
Had an amazing experience with Mackenzie tonight! She was very attentive and the food was top notch! Thanks Browns.
Food was great, exactly as ordered. Music too loud.
Ive never been a fan of the menu.
Service was excellent Food on the salty side Vegetarian option are gone I miss the Szechuan beans Salmon is my preferred fish option, not available at Browns Way too noisy Parking: Location is very good, plenty parking. Too far when raining
I got a full Caesar salad without the chicken. It was small and nothing special about it. Very overcharged price for what it was. Gf got a side Caesar with her soup and it was the exact same size. And yet her soup, Caesar and garlic bread came to the same price as my tiny Caesar. That, plus the waitress never came by to offer me more water or any drink annoyed me. I drank my GFS water instead until I realized there were 6 little lemon cells on the inside of the glass. The glass never had lemon in it and so they were clearly from poor cleaning of the glass. Overall, the experience just reminds me of why I dont go to these bland restaurants made for boring people.
Local chain, good service and food.
Outside patio is great.open space.I always enjoyed
Not very impressed with the fish taco I ordered.
The service was pathetic the server doesn t not even care to provide water we didn t got or even offered for water.
I ordered there happy hour nachos and their quantity is so less that it is even not sufficient for 1 person . Moreover, the staff need to learn some communication skills , specifically the server named ADRIANA. She is so rude and nonsense.
Loved the steak! It was well done and quite tasty with the herbal sauce on it! Sushi was good too! Pasta too!
We always come here during happy hour! I have had the butcher block burger and social lager probably 20+ times. Recommend the nachos and the Thai chicken for happy hour food options. Do not recommend the haply hour sushi. Learn from my mistakes.
Love this restaurant! There Poke bowl is great, and there bellini is my favorite. It was a beautiful day to sit out on the patio.
My go to. Best gravy ever, And a few others. Conor our ex server, New Mgr! Is a really great personality, enjoy chatting with him each time were there. At Walnut grove. Food
I had a great time, food and service
Got there when it opened with a toddler 11am first ones there. They started seating more people and getting them drinks but not us finally get drinks then have to get someone not our server to order our food guess REBECCA forgot about us ! It was agreed that the childs food would come first shes 18 months it didnt come first not a problem but people that came after us were already leaving!! Worst experience EVER. Rebecca you are so unprofessional hope you grow up. Wont be there again. Worst eggs benedict ever took 10 mins to get salt n pepper cold by that time. Very disappointing
Absolutely terrible. Brought my child here to celebrate mothers day and our day was completely ruined. Food was bad and service was worse. Especially do not bring a toddler/young child here. Every diner in the restaurant received their food before my fussy and hungry 1.5 year old. Definitely DO NOT recommend wasting your time or money here. I would give 0 stars if I could.
Fun bar and great staff. Food is delicious.
Delicious food and good ambience. The service was also amazing. We were especially grateful that they could customize our steak orders and add their phenomenal Cajun spice mix to it. The Hollywood burger was very tasty and one of the reasons my wife wanted to go there. My daughter had the pasta which she said was great in taste and quality of the fresh ingredients. We are definitely repeat customers here.
There wasnt anything really special about my last meal there. There wasnt any wow factor from anyone at our table. Just average.
Great place!! The food was top notch,service equally as good. I will most definitely be frequenting this place.
Always first class at this Browns. Server Dani and her team were excellent. Keep killing it Browns Langley!!!
.The receptionist is nice. .
Employees all attentive and polite. Location clean and comfortable. Covered patio available but very hot. Food hot and delicious! But not enough food in the Dragon Bowl for $25. I am a 140 pound female body builder and I left the table hungry. Regular drinks are $4.50 (pop) The decor is in dark colors and it was quiet until noon, when it got busy. I still recommend.
Great burgers and beer. The chicken Alfredo had the option to add bacon and they added lots of bacon! The staff was very friendly and efficient.
First and last visit...
Food was very poorly presented and poor quality.. was not worth the money.. I sat on the patio with heater full blast on my head asked waitress if she could turn it off .. she said she would then didnt. Didnt come back to check if food was okay.. I had to complain and send food back which looked like a bag of salad thrown on a plate with 1 piece of pineapple and one tiny piece of avocado. With tuna squeezed on side of the plate. I will not be returning.
I ordered fish and chips. The fish was not good, it was a small chunk with tons of overcooked batter. Not enough tartar sauce even though I got extra. And the fries portion was no more than 20 short fries. Not sure if it was because I ordered for take out, but this experience threw me off for a while and I ll look elsewhere for a bit.
Good food and service is great at this location but the volume of the music makes conversation difficult. Requested for volume to be lowered a bit but no change.
Thank you team working yesterday, you do my dinner amazing ;)
Excellent service and my tuna salad looked perfect. 10/10
Had to share my experience of our dinner last night.We have been coming to Browns for years but very disappointed with our visit last night.I want to mention that your host ( male) who sat us was delightful, very attentive.Our waitress however was very disengaged with us the whole night.Never came back to check on us after meals were dropped and actually LEFT off her shift without even telling us or handing us over to someone else.We sat and waited and waited for our cheque or someone to check on us,and no one came until finally the male host noticed we were not being taken care of.Please talk to your staff about signing off with their tables before they just leave! Things like this make us take our business elsewhere.Nowadays so expensive and unaffordable to dine out Im not going to waste our nights we get to go out somewhere we are treated like we are a nuisance.Many other restaurants to choose from now!
Just when I thought I couldn t love Brown s more than I already do! Food and customer service is always 10/10 (Oreo cheesecake jars are to die for!) but tonight they really went the extra mile. I had the worst experience ever with Skip The Dishes and long story short, Brown s more than rectified the situation even though it wasn t their fault! Thanks to Olivia and her manager whose name I forgot to ask for (sorry!).
biggest let down ever the food was good the service was bad on every level ordered a glass of wine from 3 different people our food came nothing to eat with no salt or pepper people vapping 2 ft from their table ask for the bill guy comes with the machine but no bill rookie management poor service but the food was good
The food was great the service was just a little bit less than what I expected. All in all the experience was good. We ordered the potato crusted Cod and the blackened chicken Cowboy. They were both awesome however they mixed up the salad on my wifes card. No big deal we enjoyed our dinner anyways though it would have been nice to try the coleslaw that should have been there.
First time visit, went with work friends. Shared some appies and mains. Everyone enjoyed their meal
We were cut off after 2 rounds of drinks without explanation why and very rudely from their manager because they didn t like our party size and didn t want to serve 35 people even though they took the reservation in advance. Wrote to their management team with their feedback email and nothing! I wonder if Scott Morrison knows the Langley team is ruining his brand and reputation. And quite literally giving his money to other business near by.
The server we had last time there was fantastic. Very helpful and positive with a great sense of humour.
My only gripe is how loud it gets inside the restaurant everything g else is fantastic, but for someone with hearing issues, I default to reading lips here.
Music was annoyingly loud.
I Never leave reviews and haven t been to browns in a few years but I had a gift card so came in to pickup some desert to bring home for the family. Matt at the bar was really nice and helpful, gave me some water without me asking while I waited. Will definitely be back soon!
Never come here as a group!! We had a corporate dinner and had reserved a table for 15 people ahead of time. When we reached the restaurant, the host assigned to us and the manager made us sit in separate tables (they had originally arranged our seating in 4-5 separate tables. Upon request they put 2 tables together which accommodated 11 people in one setting and 4 in a separate table, opposite to it, which made it difficult for us to interact with each other). Upon several requests, they denied to arrange a table that could accommodate all of us together. It was a simple case of POOR PLANNING. They also, on the same day and time, seated another group of people in an elevated space in the restaurant, especially when one of the member had difficulty in climbing steps. They could have kept that space for us (which would perfectly fit group of 15) and given our table to them. People come to such restaurants to have a good time. All of this completely spoiled our dinner and it was really unfortunate for the 4 people who had to sit separate from the whole group.
Good food and great place.
Great food and service!
Quite frankly: This urban pub | restaurant- food chain has an epic vibe of modern edge and quality customized dishes. Try It business meetings a definite go-to for the company I work with
Very pleasant experience
A good place to go if your group can t all agree on one ethnic type of food. Generally good food, but the only dish I ve tried (about 10 times) is the Dragon Bowl!
We had a great time here for lunch today. The food and atmosphere were great but the service was even better! Our waitress Natasha was so helpful and made sure that our dietary requests were met. Thank you and we will definitely be back!
I had gone to browns for dinner with a friend, was quite disappointed in the food! The food tasted okay the temperature was just warm not hot. I assume it was sitting under the heat lamp too long! Service was so so. My friend and I arrived at the right time there wasn t any waiting yet we did wait for our food. Not only was our food not hot but they had a mouse running around. I wasn t pleased with the restaurant having mice. I how ever still paid the bill and left. I won t be coming back to this location.
Food was good but getting way too pricey like everywhere else. Paying over 20 bucks for a burger is ridiculous.
Went today with a girlfriend for Happy hour, sat in Solarium and Chloe was our Server. Chloe was amazing at her job, very impressed with Chloe and her knowledge of menu made it a fabulous evening out!
The food and service were on point at this location.
Great service and love the food
Friends had a vape laying outside on the patio and the manager kicked us all out after being there for 3 hours with friends.
Should have told us the portions of food here is a lot smaller than every other location. Would have walked out the door.
Great food and service.
Best experience we had at browns!! My husband and I never go to browns, with todays experience we d love to come back here just for our waiter Connor. Not only was he so accommodating, but he was so professional, fast and efficient!!!! He definitely made our dining experience worth while. Such a pleasure to talk to and for good at his job! What a great asset to this location!!! Food was good , but service from Connor was even better! Good vibes!
I m a very picky eater that has to make 1000 changes to my order. They followed all of the instructions and made a pretty darn good burger.
Nice place for brunch with the family
Awesome food
Love this Browns location. Great food, service, lively.
Had the best time at Browns due to the amazing service from Tasha.She went above and beyond to make the experience memorable for my family and I!
First class experience. Great food and atmosphere. Excellent service
Love this place. Delicious food, and the waiters are so nice. The Long Island drink was so delicious!
We had good service, but my food (lamb chop) had too much salt. I ate the chops except for the curry sauce. Anyway, it was Fathers Day and dont want to ruin the atmosphere.
Tried to get a table here last night and was told it was a 25 minute wait at 9:30pm on a Monday when more than half the restaurant was empty. The host still refused to seat us when I informed her we only wanted to order drinks and would be okay waiting for a bit.
Food, service and atmosphere were great. Will definitely come back!
Great service, great food
Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Big thanks to our server Kayla, she was so welcoming and nice. We lll definitely be back Food
Nice service, recommend coming during social hour.
One of our favorite places, food and drinks are always great. Think Ive had pretty much everything on the menu at this point. The gravy is to die for!!
Dietary restrictions: Great GF options Food
They are always spot on with their takeout!
Overall a decent place to have a meal and chat.
Always good food and always amazing friendly service.Always.
Food was good but servers took our plates away before we could finish our meals. And gave us the cheque before we got a chance to finish our drinks. So unprofessional and it was not even a busy day. I would not come back.
I had the best dinner out that I have had in a long time! Freakin delicious! Perfect proportion, perfectly cooked, very well done Browns!
Food is good. Great service. Had good time with my family.
Great food and awesome service!
Food was good but it seems like it was understaffed in waiters but I am not sure about that
Tasty pizza and dynamite roll. Love their nachos!
Yummy fish tacos and honey-basil lemonade
Not to many patrons unfortunately for staff but great for us. Service good and food great Wheelchair accessibility: Fairly easy access
Stopped in for happy hour. The menu is affordable with a decent variety. The sticky Thai chicken was definitely a favourite.
The food was good but the music was turned up so loud it made it difficult to have a conversation. The volume made it difficult to relax and enjoy the meal otherwise there wouldve been more stars
Came in about 15mins to closing which I was not aware and they do not inform us. Part of their policy which was pleasant. Had few drinks and appetizers and they are good. Server, she was very presented and friendly.
i go to this browns often and typically it s great, however it took 10 minutes to get a glass of wine, server barely checked in and people who were sat after us got their drinks quicker. food was ok, chicken strips weren t the best. browns is still great and has always been but just a negative experience this time.
I had the chicken club sandwich. The chicken on it was good but very small. It wouldnt have even gone over 1/2 the bun and was very thin. The bacon was too crispy and fell out when I tried to eat it. I was disappointed as browns is usually really good.
Beer and nachos were delicious, they were able to put meat in nachos without making them mushy.
Best nachos around .when I m craving nachos this is my go to spot . The fried chicken and pickles are good. The dip is amazing. Wish there were better pieces of chicken. A lot of deep fried crumbs and way too tiny pieces barely any chicken.
2023-10-01 Good quality food, nice and welcoming staff, cozy atmosphere. Enjoyed grilled burger and a fresh cowboy salad along with freshly squeezed orange juice. They were served with extra fries as the food took a bit long to get prepared. They also removed the burger from the bill. Awesome Service!
Wine was probably the cheapest they would buy. The beer is not an ipa. The fish was over done. Will not be going back. Service wasnt very good either.
Good food and service.
Waitress was loopy. Food was good
Food and drinks were fantastic
Music way too loud. Cannot have a conversation.
Steak is good, salad is average
Cassi and Ben were incredible!
Love the southwest blackened chicken rice bowl. Vegetarian options: Southwest rice bowl Food : 5/5 |
Pricey, but what isnt in this city. Great place when you want to splurge and enjoy some really good food.
Overall great service, food & drinks! Vegetarian options: LOVE the tomato sandwich! Outstanding! And a great alternative to veg burgers. Food : 5/5 |
Great service! Great good definitely going back. Brunch all the way. Kid-friendliness: Secret kids menu
We are visiting from Toronto and knew nothing of Browns Social. Hotel person mentioned it along with a couple of others in the area. We chose Browns and are very happy we did! Atmosphere is fancy casual. Lots of TV with sports, but a little fancied than most sports bars. We both had Bowls, Potato Crusted Cod and Tiki Tuna, which were excellent! We almost left without dessert as we were tired from traveling, but thankfully we didnt make that mistake. The waiter, Ben, was great all night, and suggested the Carrot Cake. This is no ordinary carrot cake. OMG!! Possibly one of the best desserts I have ever had! Great overall experience! There are not any in Toronto at this time, but there is one in Oakville and Waterloo. We will be making the trek at some point!
I was in the area looking after dogs for a week and i came across this gem and ended up visiting 7 days in a row given the service, environment, and overall experience. Over the course of the 7 days it was consistent which is very unique in any environment. There was a very friendly staff member Ocean and MOD Josh who were scheduled 5 out of the 7 days I visited. They were incredibly kind and genuine not only to the customers but the entire team. This is my first time writing a review but felt strongly that this environment and team deserved positive recognition. I had the opportunity to meet the GM last night to provide feedback in persona and she was just as kind as everyone else. Although I live downtown Vancouver i will make an effort to stop in and say hello to this incredible group on my commutes to and from the valley. I encourage everyone to visit.
Vinnie served us on a busy Saturday night. He is a fabulous server. Food and drinks were great as well.
I have to say I am very disappointed with my experience here. We ve always enjoyed the food but the service here at this location is terrible. We had to wait up to 20-30 min to get our waitress to check in on us when we ve done eating. Everyone just seem to want to walk by without eye contact, not wanting to deal with us, at least that was how I felt. I was celebrating my birthday dinner with my family and this whole experience has ruined my evening. I don t expect a response but if you do then I know you care about your customers.
I had the Traditional Burger but it was anything but! For $23 this burger had the same amount of beef as a McDonald s cheeseburger. No exaggerating!! So disappointing. I also had the calamari. I remember thinking if you cant afford to fill a plate why are you serving it?! The portions were so pathetically small it was just shameful. The fries that came with my burger could have fit into the palm of my hand. When I got home I had to make dinner again. Brutal!!!
Good eats noise level is lower than most Browns
The new revamped Florida is not to be missed! Absolutely perfect, you will not be disappointed.
My husband and I took my parents out for dinner here a few weeks ago because the Keg was at capacity. The cheery fellow who seated us was an absolute delight. Our waitress on the other hand was completely disengaged, seemed bored and bothered, and could not have been less attentive. We ordered appetizers, she brought them, left, didnt come back to check in. She came back and cleared our table of the appetizer options and left as quick as she could without taking our dinner order. We had to flag the host to get her to come back -so we could order. When we finally got our meals we needed some salt & condiments - again we had to flag someone else down to go and get her. We could see her standing and chatting by the kitchen entrance with other staff - not looking at her section at all, and again we were presented with a bothered attitude every time she had to come over to the table. I really wish I could remember her name, but Im positive it started with a J and she wore glasses. The ONLY time she attempted lively conversation was when it came time to pay the over $200 bill. And the ONLY reason I left a tip was because I work in the service industry also and understand how tip out works. If the tip was based on her service it would have been nothing. Sorry Browns, the food wasnt bad, but we will not be back.
Most of the items in the menu card is not available. The oil they fried the wings seems old. Wings smelled little odd. Overall food is disappointing and spoiled our plans that night.
Portions have gotten insanely small. The dragon bowl barely comes with a teaspoon of sauce just so they can charge you extra for more.
