Went for a sandwich—excellent sandwich! We had a very long wait, but staff came twice to apologise (before we approached them) and offered us free cake. I can forgive pretty much anything for free cake. I had the avocado and bacon sandwich, which was delicious. Then chose a salted-caramel banana cake. Perfect. I hope to eat here again. The decor is ‘hipster’ (so I am told, was a muddle of pipes and corrugated iron and stylish art). The chairs had backs (I hate sitting at benches, so that was good) but they weren’t the most comfy chairs in the world. All seemed clean and organised.

My partner had bacon & eggs butties and I had sausage & egg butties. Really delicious and we will be back again for breakfast. Their lunch menu looks interesting and will try to visit for lunch too.

An absolutely lovely and friendly cafe, no wonder both branches are absolutely swamped with people. It is the best local dog friendly cafe that isn't specifically targeted at dogs. It is a proper local cafe and it supports local businesses. There is a large space dedicated to taking posters and leaflets. It is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Great range of vegetarian and non vegetarian food that is healthy and yet still tasty and accessible. I was immediately greeted by friendly staff and I enjoyed the table service immensely. I felt my croissant needed to have more flavour but my coffee was excellent and past experience of Brown and Green food has been excellent.

LOVED it all! The hungover beans were devine (underused word but really deserved in this case)! The eggs I got on the side were cooked to perfection and the chai latte was delicious. I've nothing but great things to say and I can't wait to go back. Finally, massive thanks to the staff, every single one... Super friendly and attentive.

Brown & Green offers a reliable and delicious all-day breakfast. They've mastered the classics, with excellent veggie and vegan options alongside. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to start the weekend. We can't recommend The Masala enough; the flavors are incredible and it's become our go-to breakfast choice. It's truly a pleasant and satisfying dish.
