I have been a visitor at browns many times, travelling from Leicestershire. On this occasion is was very disappointing. There was myself and four guests. My main meal of Duo of Duck was not edible but sadly at no time during the meal were we checked upon. Infact the service on this particular visit was also sadly lacking. We had to request a desert menu as we were not revisited at any point during our meal. My duck breast was raw the thigh was tough and overcooked and the vegetables were to hard to bite.

Such a shame as we love to support smaller local businesses but we won't be...

However... incredibly frustrating customer experience when trying to book a table and nobody picks up call and message says 'no messages can be left right now as inbox is full' this is the second time this has happened. The food and service are really excellent but the booking system is a problem. It would be good to have an Internet option to book tables (for those who use the internet) in addition to a manned phone call option for those who don't ie my...
