Browns Socialhouse Upper Lonsdale

I gave five stars for the atmosphere today. Got the summer chill vibe going on the outdoor patio with the sun shining, summer breeze , bright, red umbrellas, music, and friendly service.Some food items were prepared well, like the cod , but my salad had so much tough kale in it that was not chopped up much, so I kind of felt like a rabbit chewing away at the tough leaves.Presentation was nice, if not exceptional.4.5. Overall.Servers were enthusiastic and made the effort to please.

Glutenfrei glutenfree options available. I had a burger with glutenfree burger bun and amazing brownies as dessertDietary restrictions: glutenfree

Sent the fries back because they weren’t properly cooked. The waitress came back with new fries , still undercooked, and informed me that the reason that the fries weren’t crispy was because of the fact that they had changed the oil to new oil. That’s an embarrassing excuse for not understanding how cooking oil reacts with food. Oil that is too fresh can’t penetrate the barrier of moisture that surrounds food as it fries.HINT:Save some used oil to mix with the fresh oil the next time you fry,I guess being the award winning chefs that they are, they couldn’t have possibly screwed up. It have must been my fault for not wanting pale, soggy fries.

We had a pleasant experience with our food and drinks, although they weren't anything out of the ordinary. What really made our visit special was the service. The staff was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive. I can’t recall the last time I received such excellent service. This has definitely become my new favorite spot!

We were a family of nine traveling from Vancouver Island, and dining with such a large group can be challenging, especially since we had four kids and a seven-month-old with us. Our server, whose name we unfortunately can't remember, was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly attentive to everyone at the table, including the children. While our food took a little while to be prepared, the level of service we received was exceptional. A big shoutout to her!
