Brown’s in Town
This is the multi- award winning chef Ian Orr’s Strand Road establishment. He also owns Browns in Derry City Centre. If you’re from the city, you’ll know all about his talents in the kitchen. Visitors and newcomers are in for a treat here. Every ingredient is fresh, seasonal and local where possible.
Their set menu contains perfectly plated starters like home cured salmon, spinach, lemon, chives and organic leaves to mains like roast breast of chicken, leg and leek pie, lollipop and jus gras. The a la carte offerings are even more complex, but this is definitely not a case of style over substance.
Glazed beef ribs with carrot and fennel salad really hit the mark. We’d never tasted liquorice pears before, but we’re hooked now. Believe us when we say every single dish that leaves the pass more than earns its keep.
All that and their wine of the month is only £14.95.
OPENING HOURS Monday – thursday 5:30pm – 9pm, Friday & Saturday 5:30pm – 7pm, Sunday 5pm – 8:30pm
