Our lunch in Browns in Town was a feast that probably could have tied us over until the next day…read more The meal was so filling that I felt I would need a wheelbarrow to be led away. But the food we ordered was worth feeling so full because it was wicked good. Located on Strand Road in downtown Derry, outside the City Walls, Browns in Town has a modern interior with brown wood walls in the primary dining area and a little postmodern-styled lounge in the front entrance. The vibes are fairly relaxed where you don't feel you have to dress up outside of jeans and a shirt to enjoy a meal. The food per our experience is certainly that of comfort and quality. One aspect my wife and I loved about Browns in Town, and many of the restaurants we visited in Northern Ireland and the Republic, is that on the menu we know which dishes are celiac friendly or have a celiac option, and note all the allergens present -- e.g., gluten, shellfish, dairy, eggs, nuts, etc. My wife is celiac, so this allowed us to choose this restaurant since it offers many gluten-free options -- and not just salad. Both of us ordered the local seafood chowder (I had the gluten version, while she had the celiac option), which was creamy, buttery, and delicious, loaded with a variety of seafood caught in the area and served with homemade bread. The Mushroom & Black Garlic Risotto was out of this world, with the pine nuts and parmesan providing a nice balance with primary ingredients -- also luscious and rich. The chefs cooked the risotto to perfection. I probably was fine just ordering that, as the black garlic chips (fries to us Americans) were overkill, but I couldn't help myself being at a restaurant for the first time in a city I have never visited before. My wife had the beer-battered cod in the gluten-free option and incredibly tasty, especially when combined with the mushy peas and tartar sauce. We didn't even attempt to order dessert because we were full to the point of being in a food coma. Fortunately, we had a lot of walking around ahead of us, which helped work off our meal a little. But I would absolutely return to enjoy some of the other fares they have on the menu.

I was told this spot is always crowded during lunch. Decor is modern with clean lines. I had the battered cod with mushy peas. Everyone's dish looked good. Price is reasonable for the atmosphere. I definitely want to return here before I go back to the States. I want to try some of the beers they had on display that I've never seen.

Met some of "the boys", Ill leave it at that, there and they took us up to the Creggan and the Celtic which most tourists dont go to. Great bartender there named Sean and we met more of "the boys" there and drank with them all night. Actually met a guy that played for Celtic soccer in Glasgow was sitting right next to me. One of the guys in the group was shot in the face by British soldiers back during the troubles. The night could have went either way but after really knowing who we were and what we stood for they rolled out the red carpet and it was one of the best times Ive had in 5 trips to Ireland. Certainly not a bar for everyone, and this was 5-6 years ago, but it was right up my buddy and I s alley!
