So pleasantly surprised with Brown Bag Deli! I don't always expect much from sandwich places because--really, how much can you do with a sandwich? But Brown Bag Deli really provided everything I could ask for in a straightforward sandwich. When ordering, you can choose one of their sandwiches on the menu, or you can create your own using one of the clipboards near the front of the store. I chose the create my own. I also made it a combo, meaning I got a drink and a side. The sandwich was so delicious! The ingredients tasted fresh and high-quality. They were also very generous with the portions of each ingredient. My side, the potato salad, was also super yummy. It was dense and a decently sized portion. Overall, I totally recommend Brown Bag Deli! It's the perfect spot for a quick lunch. Would also make great food for a picnic!
I just discovered this place two days ago and the service was polite and welcoming. They served me one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life. I ordered the turkey sandwich on a toasted multigrain bread with onions, mayonnaise, honey, mustard ,avocado ,and tomatoes. It was fresh. It was filling and it literally hit the spot for me. My daughter ordered their black bean sandwich which is something she gets on a regular and she loves it. I only wish they had one of these locations out in the Richmond or Sugarland area because I am a fan. My only complaint is that we ordered two combos and when we got to the house ,one of the bags of baked chips was MIA. That's the only reason I didn't give them five stars.
The location is great and the place is very clean You walk in and fill out the bag I had a sandwich, chips, side, and drink for $14 Great price The sandwich and the wrap were Hugh - Lots of meat. They were very filling. No complaints here
How have I lived in Houston all this time and never been to Brown bag deli?! We went in on Presidents' Day for something late, and it was absolutely packed. It's obvious that people that work in this area come here for lunch regularly. To order, you get a brown bag and a marker and write your order out. Then you take it to the counter and pick out chips, drink, etc. The wrap I got was full of delicious fresh meat and veggies, but it was still so light. This is somewhere that I will absolutely revisit, and try something else too. I am always looking for a good wrap!
Stopped in for lunch after being curious for awhile now. Upon entering it just seems like a quiet cafe. You fill out a bag with your options then bring it to the front to check out. They were friendly and made sure ahead of time that I properly filled it out. They even made sure to say my name and wish me a happy new year. The strawberry lemonade had the perfect amount of sweetness. I tried the jalapeño cheddar bun with buffalo chicken. Neither of those were the spicy part. They use fresh jalapeños. Just figured I should warn ya. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by the side portion along with the distribution of the veggies on my sandwich. The potato salad was tasty.
I loovvee brown bag deli! They recently closed the Rice village location which is much closer to me which made me sad! But this location is just 2 miles down the road. It's newly renovated and they have a daily specials menu up on the wall. To order you walk in and fill out the brown bag on the clipboard then you make your choices. Anyway I ordered one of the specials the fiesty falafel. Omg it was absolute perfection! I also got it toasted with a side of potato salad and I mixed unsweet tea and lemonade! If you haven't been here before, get here! They are always consistently good!
Very good and filling. A lot of selections to choose from. Pricing is not transparent. But the menu is clear on what is considered an additional cost. The restaurant is very cute with quite a bit of seating available and ample parking.
I finally came to the newly built BBD on westheimer near S Shepherd and let me tell you this location disappointed me greatly! I've been here when it was the run down hole in the wall location and back then I never had any issues. The issue wasn't the service, but how my sandwich or what was in my sandwich per say. Most BBDs are know for its massive portion of meat and thin sliced bread along with whatever fixings you choose. But today I had 1 inch thick white bread and a ton of lettuce and the meat was barely visible. Needless to say yes this bummed me out cuz there's TONS of nice restaurants, bars, etc in a 2 block radius, but I chose this cuz I know how they make their sandwiches And yes it's a sandwich! Paying $15 for a sandwich is already ridiculous but we choose to pay it cuz how it normally comes. Sometimes I even order double meat just to see the mountain of meat they gonna put in my sandwich, but I didn't today and it felt like I really got the short end for sure Every bite was bread and lettuce and not gonna lie it was hard to eat. I didn't wanna bitch about it cuz they were busy and everyone knows , you don't bitch about food as long as it's not extremely terrible cuz I didn't want them to give me a new sandwich with " extra sauces " Oh well, the Rice Village location is my go to and I should've just went there.
We stopped in here for lunch and it was delicious! Both of us had turkey sandwiches on rye and multigrain. Though they did accidentally switch the bread on our sandwiches, they were still tasty. I was surprised how much meat comes on the sandwich. The place is clean and the staff is kind. I will definitely be back for another sandwich and I will have to try the cookies
First time here and I'm extremely impressed! I ordered a falafel salad with feta, lettuce, tomato and cucumbers with olive oil. I added a fruit cup, which was fresh and delicious. The staff here are so friendly and helpful. I'll be back again!! So glad my husband recommended this place.
Food: build your own wrap Spinach wrap, roast beef, american cheese, lettuce, tomato A thick wrap!! A generous portion of roast beef, yet not overwhelming. The wrap was not soggy too. It was nice and filling without being heavy and the roast beef was seasoned well but not too salty. It was catered, and came with choice of chips and cookie. Highly recommend for catering for events!
My new fave Montrose sandwich shop! Okay it's not new, but it has gotten a total refresh due to a building remodel. I love all of the sandwich options, but I'm currently crushing on one of the signature specialties call 'The Boss's Wife.' Wifey knows what's up! This wrap has shaved buffalo chicken, feta, lettuce, tomato, pickles, cucumber and avocado. I add Sriracha ranch for extra kick. Order online for easy pickup, but it's pleasant to dine in bc it's so bright and clean, and the music is frigging awesome - Stone Roses, Cure, Siouxsie, INXS all playing mellowly during this visit! Staff is super friendly. You could grab a cookie next door but honestly the chocolate chip cookies here are probably just as good. I only wish they were open later for my evening Brown Bag cravings!

Put tons of meat on the sandwich, their honey mustard and bacon is incredible. Big water cups too, not one of those tiny ones you can only get a sip or two out of. read more

We got two delicious ham sandwiches this afternoon. They have baked chips which are slightly healthier than the other kind. The staff here are extremely friendly. It's a good place to make a quick stop for an excellent sandwich. And, they even toasted my marble rye bread. read more

When I walked in, I felt like I was in a small corner store deli. Was a cool process to order the sandwich off the bag. Brown bag deli has very good customer service. Cashier showed me the process and I was on my way! I ordered a Turkey Sandwich with a Wheat Bun. Pepper Jack cheese. Lettuce Tomato, onion, & fresh jalapeños. The fresh jalapeños gave my sandwich a very good kick that I loved. Everything was fresh & 5 star! read more

I love sandwiches and all things sandwich related. I'm always looking for different sandwich shops and am usually willing to try them out. It's always a bonus when you can choose your own ingredients from multiple categories of sandwich fixins' too. So I loved the concept of checking off your ingredients on a literal brown bag and having your masterpiece placed inside afterwards. So as a self-proclaimed sandwich connoisseur, this place gets a gold star and I'll be back! read more
I love this deli because the sandwiches are so flavorful and fresh. The staff working there is so sweet and really helpful if you're not sure what you want. They had limited seating because of covid and I felt very safe dining there. read more

If you're begging someone to fix your eyebrows, go to the "Brow Beg Deli." Brown Bag feels like a chain, although there are only 4 locations in Houston and supposedly, they're not connected to the other places known as Brown Bag around the country. In Dallas, Columbus, New Mexico, I've seen them everywhere. I'm confused as to whether these guys are a franchise of those, or what. Anyway, the food here is pretty basic and bland, nothing to write home about. The cookies are pretty good though. I'll have to try a few more sandwiches before I expand this review properly. read more

I'm not really a traditional sandwich person in all honesty. I may crave one here and there but it's definitely not at the top of my list of lunch options most days. It's been a while since I have been won over by a deli joint. In fact lets just say it's been over a year since I had that wow I could eat sandwiches more often than not if they consistently tasted like this. So with that said let's hope for consistency cause I intend on visiting Brown Bag again. So as with the way ordering systems seem to go these days, write your own order out. You grab a clip board with a brown bag attached with all your options and fill it out, don't forget to write your name on the bag. The bag idea is cute given your getting it to go, if you're not seems like a waste of product. Combo #1 - Sandwich, chips, drink $8.95+Tax Wheat bread, oven roasted turkey, horseradish white cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, & deli mustard, jalapeño heat kettle chips, & I'm sold! The bread, so I am a bread snob I'm sure I've mentioned that! It's got a hint of a sweet flavor and I'd like some more. Large portion of meat is given, thank you for not skimping on this. Everything tasted great, especially the bread, and was all fresh. Great lunch spot or call in and order to go. read more

Brown Bag Deli is one of my favorite sandwich shops. Today I ordered Combo #2 - sandwich + side + drink =$10.45. Sandwiches alone cost $6.95. Sandwich: jalapeño cheddar bread is delicious and has a sweetness to it; I highly recommend it! Oven roasted turkey and/or Black Forest ham are usually what I pick for protein. Side: red potato salad is ok. I probably wouldn't order it again. I only ate 1/2 of my sandwich and a 1/3 of the potato salad. Saving the rest for later :) Come here and you'll leave very satisfied. read more
