Brown’s Coffee Co. — Restaurant in Northern Ireland

Ordered a ham and cheese panini, and a roast beef and cheese panini, stated twice that I didn't want anything else on or with them, they were to be completely plain.

Both arrived out sat in a load of coleslaw making half of each instantly inedible.

Opened the roast beef and cheese to check inside and it had some kind of brown sauce on it. So it was 100% inedible. Works out £17.90 of food and only £4.48 of value.

Waited outside in the cold, and mizzly rain for over almost 30 minutes.

Hi Daniel,

The order was a takeaway order, as I was working and on my 30 minute lunch break. I was waiting for almost 30 minutes, plus the drive down and back, so I had already exceeded my 30 mins by 50% by time I discovered I was going without lunch.

Also if you think I can afford almost 20 quid for 1/2 a ham and cheese panini, a lukewarm latte and a tin of diet coke you're delusional. If you'd been open when I was going home I'd have called in, and handed you it back, I was tempted to leave it on your window sill.

Maybe consider that before sending out incorrect...

After looking forward to eating at your restaurant I was appalled at the service that we received from you, the owner this morning.

You expect adults to eat from cardboard box with wooden cutlery. To try and explain minimum wage salaries with the public whilst giving out substandard service is a disgrace. Your staff are obviously not trained well enough by yourself as to explain to the public, that if you are seated outside that they should expect wooden boxes and wooden knives and forks to eat from !! How do you expect adults to cut sourdough bread that’s toasted out of a box ? Then when we simply ask for a plate you have an argument with me and my wife and refuse us the simple pleasure !! Then to top it all off you refund me and throw out the food! I think you need to clearly have a look at your business model and learn from this , will never...

This is a coffee shop that you don't need to go too if you are looking for a very good variety menu. They don't do sandwiches and when I asked for a wheaten scone with jam and cream they didn't have any cream. They said they'd run out of cream and this was at lunchtime!!!! I'm not sure if they have a children's menu but if they don't it's definitely not a place to bring kids. It would be great to see food on their menu like other coffee shops and restaurants. PLEASE DON'T USE AS MUCH BUTTER AND IT WOULD BE GREAT TOO IF YOU COULD GET A FRY. I understand your trying to do Healthy options BUT YOU NEED TO PUT YOUR CUSTOMERS FIRST AND THINK ABOUT THEM. Staff are ok but service...
