I am a regular since they opened, but I am quickly becoming less regular. Portions have diminished, and the food just isnt as good as it once was. Im hating it too that it was one of our go to spots, but not so much any more. This last visit, we got a pile of many times fried french fry crumbs served to us, with what looked like a measly sandwich that was about half of the old fig and pig. Dont be fooled by the review pics.
Brown Dog has a cool vibe and the food is consistently good not great. I’m sadly always disappointed with their wine selection. It’s gone from mediocre to not good. I’d rather pay more for a better selection than have really no good wines to choose from. Might be time for some menu updates as well. I do enjoy the street tacos and street corn.
Ive been here a handful of times while in Carrollton. Its always very good, I typically like to try a new cocktail each time. Fav foods so far would be the fried green tomatoes, the shrimp and grits, & they have a salmon salad that is so so good. I would def recommend!
Average at best. I had the spicy black bean burger with a side of sweet potato fries. The fries were soggy and cold. Good ambience though.The pimento cheese appetizer was on point though.
The food was absolutely amazing!! So much flavor in unexpected combinations. The atmosphere was great and the staff very friendly.
It was a spectacular Saturday afternoon with bright blue skies and a cool breeze.It was reminiscent of fall day although it was actually late March.The restaurant is very popular so your name is taken and when a table is available they call your mobile phone.The menu is good and the food straight forward. Two in the party had a generous portion of cedar planked salmon. The fish was deftly grilled tasted wonderful and had two excellent side items.Someone in the party had shrimp and grits who claimed it was excellent.The best side dish and the best part of the lunch were the collard greens an exceptional fabulous side dish. It was the piece de resistance in a very lovely spring lunch.Service was warm, good naturedand efficent.
Literally should be on a spotlight show on Food network. Comfortable atmosphere but the food is literally top best of anywhere I have eaten. The fried green tomatoes are the best Ive ever had.
This place used to be my favorite. Unfortunately the last three times I have come they cannot cook meat correctly. They overcook burgers and undercook steak. Management is not very responsive because they currently have an overall positive reputation. Hopefully they will act before it is to late.
Would have give it four and a half stars. Three of our four sandwiches was good. My wifes hamburger bun was burnt on one side. All four of our fries was way overcooked. Felt like I was eating kettle chips. It was my first visit and I will probably try it again but if the if its not a lot better I will not give it a 4 star again. Also two of the sandwiches were overcooked.
This place is so fun! Great atmosphere and even better food. This time was a little busier than the last, but our waitress never forgot us and our food came out fast for a party of 6. Everybody left full and happy!
The southern charm & hospitality was great AND THE FOOD WAS EVEN BETTER! Even as a vegetarian, this is probably one of the best black bean burgers I’ve had! Thank you for the experience & good time.
First visit for lunch...ordered a hamburger .... asked specifically for it to be really well done twice and the waitress repeated it back to me...my husband ordered his well done....I saw pink on second or third bite.....seating was real close so I didnt say anything...I could not stomach the half done meat...I mentioned to waitress that it was not really well done as I had asked..her response was that its difficult to get burgers well done without getting them too charred....I asked her to tell the chef that it was not well done at all..she continued to mention the wood grill...I said no more except to compliment the broccoli salad... but I think I wasted my time and money.on a half done burger....2 burgers with each 1 side and 2 waters...$33.90......which included a tip....little steep...left very disappointed and still hungry....she offered after about 10 minutes to cook it some more..no thank you! SOLUTION...IN THE FUTURE JUST PLEASE TELL CUSTOMERS WHO ASK FOR A REALLY WELL DONE BURGER THAT YOU CANNOT GET IT PREPARED THAT WAY....SIMPLE!! I WOULD HAVE ORDERED SOMETHING DIFFERENT!! SORRY FOR THE RANT....
Great family place. So enjoyed our time there tonight. Jordan is the bomb as a waitress be sure to ask for her. The food was freash and tasty. Can’t wait to come back!
Really awesome spot at the square in downtown Carrollton. The square has seen many restaurants over the years but this one is really, really, good. They have a unique style and the food was incredible. The Carroll County Cobb salad is a must try. My mother and grandmother had the Reuben sandwiches and they loved them. Great size bar as well and the inside is really nice. Highly recommend if your in Carrollton.
The Brown dog is a great place to eat. It would be ideal for date nights or meeting a friend for lunch. The space isn’t huge and is quite busy most of the time, but the service is always speedy and courteous. I would highly recommend the shrimp street tacos and the Mexican street corn. The street corn is better than some that I have had at Mexican restaurants. Also, the pork skins are so fresh and deliciously paired with hummus. The prices are extremely reasonable for the amount of and quality of food that you are served. The wait staff is always pleasant and though they are always bustling your food comes out quickly and hot. This is quickly becoming my favorite place to eat.
Last two times it’s been horrible. Over an hour wait for food. Then it comes out cold and the bartender ask if I want it microwaved. Today was the second time waited over an hour for food people can’t in after us and ate before us but no one could give an explanation and the manager wouldn’t even speak about the problem. And this is my favorite place to eat in carrolton but won’t be back after this.
Carrollton is lucky to have this little place. I had a salad which was fine if not exceptional but my main delight of the evening was their draft IPA from a local brewery, Printers.
I don’t know if we came on an off day or what, but we were less than impressed. My grilled Ahi was chopped and charred, not like one would expect of a “grilled ahi” and it only covered half of the bun. I ended up scraping it off and eating the bits I could with a fork rather than as the “sandwich” I thought I had purchased. My daughter’s Philly was excessively greasy and had minimal flavor and we both found the mac and cheese to be dry and less than cheesy - in fact, it tasted more like a dry macaroni salad. We were so looking forward to our lunch, but we won’t be back after this experience.
Fun, noisy, pub atmosphere. Very good food. Fried green tomatoes on some of the burgers and BLTs. Big college crowd.
Brown Dog is a fascinating restaurant. I love how they mesh various flavors together in one dish that create the fireworks your tastebuds desire. Best restaurant in Carrollton!
Great food, everything we ordered was delicious. Portion sizes were generous it was enough for 3 meals.
Went in early Sunday afternoon. We were greeted and seated right away. Our service was good and food was fantastic. Only thing maybe was a lack of menu options on the brunch menu. Would definitely recommend eating here. Also, had our 2 young children, servers were very friendly which I like. They also have apparel for sale, but didnt see any displayed to see what we could have possibly bought and the front was busy so we left. Thanks for an overall good experience!
Ive said it before and Ill say it again: this place is amazing. Great food, calm atmosphere, and delicious drinks.
This place is a wonderful place to eat. It has an awesome kitchen and wait staff and a really cool dining area.
Amazing food & service and great drink selection! Small outdoor seating area with a cute downtown view. Ordered the filet mignon, mac & cheese, Mexican street corn, Octoberfest beer, and moon pie banana pudding....incredible!
Our go to place for dining out in Carrollton. The food is always delicious and the service is great. Expect a crowd, but it’s worth it!
If I lived near, Brown Dog would be my favorite! The short ribs and macaroni was heavenly as was the chocolate chip pecan pie! Dawn our server was so personable, well trained and excellent! The food was brought swiftly and very hot! A great recommendation!
Today was a new dish to me. Ive tried a handful of items. Everything has been fresh, unique and tasty! The only reduction from 5 to 4 stars was speed of service. Saw two parties leave. This wasnt a problem for me. I was dining alone and sat at the bar. Watched basketball game and read. Bartender was great.
Very good food. Spins on southern comfort food. Got to try the fried green tomatoes, awesome. There pimento cheese is the bomb. She crab soup is some of the best I have had.
Fantastic food excellent service. The only problem a person could have is what to pick off the menu... Fried Green Tomatoes were amazing and well be back for the beignets! Outstanding place to visit!
Best lunch ever! Pimento cheese Blt with fried green tomatoes on top! So good!
Not a bad place. Staff was nice and helpful. Food was ready in decent amount of time. Fried chicken was nice and crispy, not oily. They do serve alcohol and sides seperatly. Would come again if ever in the area.
My wife and I both ordered the Whistle Stop BLT sandwich because we have had it before, and loved it. This time each sandwich only had 2 slices of very thin ( you could see thru it) soggy bacon. Service was great, but sandwich was all bread. Unacceptable.
Loved the atmosphere...the awesome menu...bust best of all the staff. My new hang out.So guys if youre looking to impress your lady. This is it. My server guessed everything perfect...Im not sure about the wine list but...my date was very happy...
All the staff are super friendly! The food was delicious! This was our first visit here and it wont be our last! Becky T. Was a top notch waitress!
Great food, service and prices. Good selection of beers. Highly recommend if you are looking for a less casual meal.
First time going and this is one of my favorite restaurants of all time. The food was so good!
Great local place! Great bar. Street tacos were delicious!
Great food and service had fried green tomatoes as a appetizer and i had pig and fig sandwich both were excellent. I will definitely be eaten there in the future.
Great, friendly, fast service. My salmon salad was prepared just right. The chef knows how to cook the salmon just right. The Brown Dog Eatery is our go-to lunch stop when driving from Birmingham to Newnan. And what a cute little town!
A New Addition to the Carrollton Square LifeThis place has not been open too long and you can tell by the crowd it attracts. There were 3 of us in our party and it took about 15 minutes to be seated in a table right by the door that was ready the whole time. I cant really knock points off for this because they were very busy and short staffed. Hopefully if a few weeks they will be better prepared.The food was really good. I had a Seafood Pasta (pictured) that was amazing and my wife had some kind of French Fries covered in gravy and cheese dumplings that was also good. They were out of the fish and chips that night (catfish and fires) so my sister in law got the whole snapper (pictured). She did not like it. She said one side was good but the other side was very fishy. Also the fact that it still had eyeballs freaked her out! HahaThe restaurant offers a cool atmosphere with a nice bar that doesnt take away form family friendliness. The staff was nice but overworked, probably because they are newly opened.I would recommend this place to others.
Soooooo good! I had the Fig ‘n Pig with sweet potato fries, and my husband had the Apple Butter Jeans with mac and cheese. We both loved our food, but my husband would not stop talking about how his sandwich was the best sandwich he’s ever had. We had a great time sitting, eating, and relaxing. Definitely worth the drive!
Excellent local watering hole and restaurant interesting but still Southern menu. Everything I have tried so far has been excellent.
Great food - horrible customer service.My wife and I drove over an hour to meet up with some friends and have dinner. A member of our partys food arrived 15 minutes after everyone elses, our waitress never refilled our drinks, never asked how our food was or cleaned our plates away, and waited until we were paying our tab to ask for refills.Again, food was wonderful, but dont expect to get refills or have a positive customer experience.
It was pretty good. Brought my out-of-towner relatives and they enjoyed it. First off the waitress was great! She could tell wed never been there before and helped us out. We got the lunch salmon wrap at dinner time because she was willing to ask and it was pretty good! Their cheese grits as a side were ok but I may be biased though because Ive had amazing grits. But all in good. Nice relaxed family friendly atmosphere.
Very friendly staff. Comfortable environment. Great sandwiches. Havent tried anything else yet.
Eh, the first for times weve been the food has been good and the service excellent, but last time, the waitress was rude and seemed bothered to even be taking our order. We will try again, maybe next time.
Bartenders are great and fun!! They all gave great suggestions. All our food seemed to be freshly made with great taste. Cant wait to bring others after bragging about our visit.
Outstanding place to eat! I had the pig n fig--pulled pork, homemade fig preserves, Granny Smith apple slices and cheddar on a homemade bun. The flavor combo was just perfect! It came with handcut fries so good they didnt even need ketchup. Portions were generous and prices were extremely reasonable. Decor was cozy and creative and atmosphere was family friendly. Tried several good places on the square, but Brown Dog was the best by far!
Always a pleasure to eat here. Local grown & crafted foods.
We enjoyed excellent service and really good food. Portions were large and well made. It is a little noisy, but that is due to the architecture of the old building.
My wife and I had a bite to eat here on our date night. I ordered the French Onion Dip and my wife ordered the Apple Butter Jeans sandwich. Service was quick and excellent. Prices are comparable to other local restaurants. The ingredients for the food seem to be locally sourced. Some of the decor on the walls is for local suppliers and list items that are on the menu. Good was delicious! We will definitely return. I would highly recommend this location!
The food is good but fair warning to parents go on a night without the kids. They didnt have kids menus when I went and it was my first time stopping in I specifically got my son a kids cheese burger amd a drink it was $12.50 for the burger and $2.50 for the drink. I ended up paying almost $40 with tip for our meals.
We were in town over the weekend for a state track meet. Found this gem of a place on a google search. Food, service and atmosphere were amazing!!
Great food, great atmosphere, excellent service! Highly recommend!
First time at this restaurant. Service was generally pretty good, although they need to rethink the layout at the hostess stand as it is very crowded. I was there with my wife on a Friday evening and it was busy and very loud in the main dining area near the the bar. We were seated in the rear dining room and it was still noisy but quieter than the main dining room.I ordered the Bacon Black & Bleu Burger with fries, The food arrived quickly, a little too quickly as the french fries were very undercooked, We sent them back and received some slightly undercooked fries a few minutes later. My burger was good and cooked to order, The only real disappointment were the fries.I would rate them 3.5 if I could, Not a bad place and probably a little better when they are not so busy and the kitchen takes their time. I may try them again while I am in the Carrollton area and will update the review if anything changes.
My family and I love eating here. Hands down the best place in downtown Carrollton to eat.
I would not want to eat there. I have a very specialized diet, and my friend was told that it is against their policy to prepare or plate the sandwiches differently from the listed style. If I am paying for food, I need it the way I can eat it. The customer should be made to feel welcome, appreciated and happy at a business. Since it is your policy to only prepare something the way you like instead of the way a paying customer would prefer, i will gladly eat at another establishment.
Pretty good, a little crowded and loud for my taste but pretty good. Will try the sin dip and burger next time. Both looked amazing.....Fast forward...I did try the sin dip and got the hotdog instead of the burger. Both were incredible, but guess what they also have She Crab Soup! She crab soup in Carrollton. Who knew? Derlicious! Service was great as well. Thanks Kendall. Add it to our favorites list.
I think my fries were left over from yesterday. And the bun was hard as a rock.....AND I PAID $14 for it. Wont do it again
This place is one of our favorites and we have frequent this establishment many times, but on this day we waited 45 minutes on our food , and unfortunately our server was more interested in finishing her shift than seeing where our food was. We had to inquire about our food 3 times and after the 3rd time she finally went to kitchen and we had our order in 5 minutes .I understand it was a busy day with graduation going on but they seemed to have adequate staff.I sure hope this is not sign of things to come .It ruined our entire experience
I have been here about 4 times now. I have tried something different each time. And let me tell you everything has been amazing. The pepper jelly is so good on the food it might sound wired to be on a BLT or a hamburger but nooo it is so good!! This place is a must try!! Anytime I am out that way I try to make time to go.
Good poutine. Good green tomato salad. Shrimp and grits was lacking flavor and jambala didnt have much meat. Added their own 20%tip to the bill
This place had amazing food. Went for lunch and the sandwich was very tasty! Also... BEST apple butter ever. Highly recommend.
It was so busy and we thought it would take forever to get in and out. The wait was fair and the food was excellent. I dont eat pork and a lot of dishes had bacon incorporated in the recipes so I was very limited in what I could order.
Highly disappointed in the food today. Everything was over cooked or burnt. Duck Fat fries were so over cooked that they were like potato chips. I have been here once before and the food was 5 star but this evening the kitchen was definitely off. Will give them another try but with reservations the next time I’m in the area.
The 1st time I ate there, it was great. I ordered the grouper the last time, I had to send it back. It was way under cooked. And this was the last plate they brought to the table. The appetizers were great.
Never have had a bad meal. The strawberry shortbread dessert is one of the best desserts Ive ever had and I have had a lot. Highly recommend if you are looking for a different type of flare on food. Great atmosphere and great service!
Great pub fare. Very busy at lunch time. Exciting atmosphere. Really enjoyed the wrap and fries.
Ive been to this location maybe at least ten times within the past two years. The staff is always so kind and helpful. Love the atmosphere and aesthetic its got going on.The food is really hit or miss. The soups and chili are always amazing. The rest is either really good or just maybe is not the best.This review is really just for the awesome staff. For food, maybe look elsewhere..
Great atmosphere and friendly people. Has the Southern Charm Burger…soooo good!! Willbe back when I visit my son at UWG. Go Wolves!!
😕😕 disappointed... Food was very tasty.. SERVICE SUCKED! very young staff and apparently dont understand what customer service means or how to use their words!
Do not let the name fool you, me and my wife went here just because it was something different we have never had and wow! The plates were amazing very unique and delish. I had an apple burger that was out of the world. Cant wait to go there again. Try it and dont let the ingredients fool you.
Great food. The burger was surprisingly good (much better that any premium burger I have had in the past).
First time, great experience. Good friendly service, the food was great. We were there at 2 pm and it was packed. AAA+
Fried green tomatoes were so good! Never had any like these!
Good but really overpriced. I paid 19 dollars for a bowl of shrimp (6) and grits
Love the food. I’ve never had anything bad. Great staff
The food was good but not really my taste. I had a Cuban sandwich that was more like a BBQ sandwich. They were extremely busy and it showed. Our food took nearly an hour to co e to the table but it was hot.
Stopped by on Tuesday afternoon and had some of the best service we have ever had! Food was great...due to our servers recommendations. She was honest and gave excellent advice. We were taking our time (family visiting) and she gave us plenty of time and space but was attentive and helpful. Beer selection was good. BLT was delightful. And those chicharrones nachos with the short ribs?? Is life-changing overly-dramatic? I think not.
30 minutes for cold fries and a burnt hotdog. Plus hamburger was not prepared as requested. Not going to come back.
Yummmmm. I have never gotten anything there we dont like. The servers are friendly, and the wait isnt long. Our family will be going back.
I love this place. The staff is super friendly, the food is great and there’s a good bit of variety as well.
The service was great! The food came quick. I enjoyed the corn and shrimp chowder. The sandwich had really burned bacon. i know they saw that before they put it together!
Friendly service, great barbeque and outstanding seafood. We will be back!
Stopped by this afternoon for lunch while in town. Great service and great atmosphere. Tried the Poutine, Mac”Intosh”, and Beignets for desert and the food was delicious. If you’re looking for a small town spot to hang enjoy some good eats and beverages, this is a great stop!
Great place for a bite and a beer, rotates lots of regional craft breweries on tap; and always delivers with the food!
We always have the best time here. The waitresses are all so awesome and quick. We came this past busy Saturday night, but were seated right away. We took my parents for the first time, and they are so excited to come back. All our food was excellent. I highly recommend the blueberry margarita!! Their Mac and cheese and potato salad are the best sides I have had. I want to try everything on the menu now, so we can’t wait to come back!
I had the shrimp tacos. I love the sauce they came with! Scrumptious!! The others in my party had Salmon, mac hot dog, ribs and cheese sandwich and chicken salad. Everyone were happy! Their home style french fries are the BEST!
Great food. Love the vibe of the place. We will return. Took my wife on a date night and had a great time. After dinner walked around the square and had ice cream. Great after.
I visit Carrollton often, and this is always my first choice for food!
I was unsure what to order as the menu was unusual. I really enjoyed the salmon and the fried green tomatoes with the piminto cheese was an unexpected surprise!! Completely excellent combination of flavors. 5 stars!
This was our first time there. Our waitress was great. The food was delicious and we will definitely be going back. The Brown Dog Burger with fries and the Moon Pie dessert was great!!
Great atmosphere, friendly staff and Great food. Oh and do not miss the beignets. Theyre fantastic.
Bomb food. Great service. Perfect location
It was a nice change ..had the putine fries ...was awesome ❗
Great environment, excellent service. Would have given a 5 star except my duck fries were cold.
Get the sweet potato waffles fries. I promise, youll love them.
Its very pricey even though its in the city. A Cuban sandwich and a chicken wrap, tea and water was $30. Theres nothing that special about the menu for the price. Food was hot and tasted like what was ordered. Portions arent worth the money for what we had. Mexican street corn was very good but small. Table was clean the floor was a different story. Might go back but not for a year or two.
The food was great. The service was delightful. The food is truly cooked to order, so dont expect this to be a quick visit.
Staff were great! I had the Southern Charm Burger with Broccoli and Kale salad and hubby had the Philly cheese with Mexican street corn. We would go back many times if we lived closer. Atmosphere was so cute and quirky. Loved it.
Great service and very good food, It is truly down-home southern cooking. Great microbrews selection as well. I had the Dilly Philly sandwich and collard greens. Fantastic taste on both counts. Collard greens were not quite as temperature hot as I would have liked. Overall experience and atmosphere was an 8 for sure.
Although not much to look at on the outside, the food here is excellent. The She Crab Soup was fabulous! We both liked our sandwiches. They were different, creative, and complex. The Kale Broccoli salad was really good as well, chock full of interesting things. Definitely worth a visit!
If you go here, they have that nice twist on the fried green tomatoes (its everything else on the plate with it that really makes the dish). I mean, its a little messy on the presentation but those things are not the easiest to make presentable. They are just good. But the beignets yall! They. Are. GOOD!
Great food! Space was a lot tight.
Marshall, bartender, is fantastic and creative. Food is always good, but not completely consistent in portion or presentation. One of the best places in Carrollton.Food is not served hot. Quality has gone down, perhaps new cooks who need training or just inattentive kitchen staff. Food is typically under or over cooked.
I dont know what people are raving about because the food is not good. I will not be returning to this restaurant.
Great salmon. When I come back for a visit this is the restaurant I will return to. We sat outside, we all loved our meals. The collards were a bit spicy.
Ive been in the military for a long time and moved back home. Ive ate alot of good food... Brown Dog Eatery is by far one of the best restaurants Ive ever been. Their menu is phenomenal and I couldnt decide what I wanted. Hands down a 10/10 restaurant. If you come to Carrollton and dont eat here youve made a mistake. Great food, beer and atmosphere.
Wow, where to begin? Great food, awesome place to chill and have drinks.
Great food close to the square! The beignets were super good👌
Delicious! We ate here over homecoming weekend and the food was great. Its nice that its located right on the square.
Might be one of the best meals I jave ever had!
Walked in at 2:39 and we were told the kitchen closes at 2:40. Closing is listed at 3:00 pm.
Always a good meal here. Had the blackened mahi mahi tonight and it was delicious. Coupled with my standard old fashioned and good friends, a great evening.
Boutique restaurant in downtown. You can access many other venues and activities on foot. They offer a unique spin on burgers and southern cuisine, including hot dogs! It can get a little noisy if youre trying to hold a formal discussion with someone, but its overall a trendy and delicious experience.
Good staff. Attracts entitled customers. Every time Ive come here there has been a Rude as hell customer. Staff handles it well. But this is a gathering place of Karens
Ive been here a few times and its kinda hit or miss, its a great atmosphere, the bar is enjoyable, but the food isnt always reliable. Ive never had a bad experience, but the quality in the food is not always the same and can lead to disappointment. But if youre looking for a new place to try Brown Dog Eatery isnt a bad choice
This is one of my very favorite restaurants. The atmosphere here is great with reclaimed barn wood and brick walls and lots of industrial lighting, but the feel of the place is just the beginning. The service is fantastic here! We have never had a bad experience with a waiter/waitress. The food is absolutely the best on the square! My husbands go-to meal every time has been the Fig N’ Pig sandwich. It’s the perfect blend of sweet and savory on a bun! My go to is the Tex Mex Chipotle Chicken salad. If you like salads, this one does not disappoint! So good! I’ve also had the Apple Butter Jeans sandwich and it is also such a good choice. I don’t think you can really go wrong with anything on their menu. If you are in the area, this place is a must.
Great variety of different food, and service has been good every time
Waiting for ever to eat. people came in after us got there food first.They forgot to put the order in. And were having to pay. Dont risk it.
Lovely southern-style eatery just off the Square next to the AMP in downtown Carrollton. Food and desserts are all outstanding, theyve got local beers on tap, and the cocktail menu aint bad either. Easily one of the best spots in town.
Great experience! Really good food.
Everything Ive ordered off the menu has been 5 stars. The specials of the day can be 5 stars too but sometimes they can be a bit lesser. Stick to the menu unless the specials that day really speak to your tastes that day.
Food is DELICIOUS!!!!!! GET THE BRISKET GRILLED CHEESE!!!!!!! The fries are yummy as well!!!!!
The atmosphere was very lively. I was there on a company luncheon. The selection of food was unique and the appetizers we had were delicious. There are ample TVs for viewing is youre there for a game. My food was barely warm when I received it, I had the Philly minus the mushrooms. It was still delicious though. Service was attentive and I did not run out of drink.
Excellent restaurant. Very creative and diverse menu, quick and accurate service. Great location for work lunches.
Awesome place.. my burger and fries were absolutely delicious. Our waitress, Jordan, was as friendly as could be and had a genuine smile. She explained several items on the menu to my wife and told us what her personal favorites were. She also brought the extra sauces we requested without any hassle.. not only was she friendly, she was attentive. She made our experience 100% better and deserves recognition.
We have visited a hand full of times and will be back. Almost every menu item we have tried has been excellent. The burgers are terrific. We love the decor and atmosphere. The metal chairs at most tables are too narrow and uncomfortable. It is a popular place and can get pretty crowded ,(and loud at times); you will likely have a wait if you dont get there early. Parking is not very convenient.
1st time here but definitely wont be the last! It was GREAT! The young lady up front was rather rude, but I didnt let her spoil my visit!Brendan was our waiter and was beyond wonderful! He explained the specials, went and got our drinks then came back for our order. I ordered the chili mac burger with fries, my Mom ordered the sin city chicken sandwich with broccoli and kale salad. EVERYTHING WAS STUPENDOUS!!!! My burger was cooked to perfection, had bacon, chili and mac n cheese on it! WOW!!!! Great flavor, seasonings, the bacon was crisp and the mac n cheese was yummy!! My Moms order was also cooked to perfection! The chicken was flavorful and tender, not dried out at all!!! The kale and broccoli salad was awesome!!!The atmosphere was cool, the music playing was great and entertaining! I will be going back soon with my hubby!!! Great place with great food!!!
Great place and recommended by a few people. I had the salmon with broccoli/kale salad. I cant wait to order this again!
Hands down our favorite place to eat. The drinks are also amazing and change constantly. Service is always fast and friendly and the food is consistently top notch.
Everything was better than we even expected. We will definitely be back!
I love everything I have eaten here! I try to get something new every time and Im always pleased! All of the food is always super fresh and arrives pretty fast, except for on the busy days when they are packed. But IMO its always worth the wait! Also their bar has some pretty great selections and the servers are knowledgeable and always recommend something that compliments my meal.
Services was great..... food was amazing!!! Was just traveling thru, but will come back, just to eat here again!!!
I dont know if they have switched cooks but it has slipped some, since first started coming. Still good. The manager is very good. Told her of an issue with another table next to us and I am certain she addressed the situation head on.
Grabbed a quick bite with the oldest and was not disappointed. I highly recommend the Ahi tuna and Crab salad. Share it or order it as a meal like I did. I almost couldnt finish it all but it was too good to waste.
I absolutely love this place! Unique and interesting atmosphere, plenty of beer options to choose from, and the menu is great! I like to try something new each time I visit, and Im always 110% satisfied. Sometimes theres a bit of a wait even when its not packed, but the ingredients are super fresh and I think its well worth waiting for! Just take a couple of buddies and order some drinks and the time will fly by.
Beautiful location in old downtown Carrollton. Outdoor seating. Friendly and responsive waitstaff. Best burger I have had all year!! and I am not easy to please when it comes to burgers... Definitely going back to try more of the menu.
First thought after churchMy wife and I enjoyed a delicious meal and excellent service. 3/14/2021I enjoyed the satisfying bean burger and a side of broccoli salad. Yum!!
If you have ever eaten at the the Brown Dog in Charleston South Carolina, then you know how amazing the food is. The location in Carrollton Georgia is just as amazing.
My wife’s favorite place to grab food/drinks with her friends.
Always a great place for a good plate and better local beer
I had the fried green tomato appetizers they were awesome I had the Cubana and home fries,my daughter had the apple butter jeans both were so good
We waited quite a while to get in, which was fine even though we were told it would most likely be 20 minutes. We waited for over an hour. We waited another hour before we got our food. I think the prices were good if the food had been good. My sandwich had bread so toasted that it was hard and nothing on it was hot. It didnt taste like anything but super crunchy bread. I had a side of grits that were at least warm but also had no flavor. Out of our group no one had a dish that made them want to return. Fortunately, we had good company and you cant mess up beer.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff and awesome food. My wife enjoyed the Bob Barker wrap (salmon) and loved the Southern charm burger (handmade burger patty, fried green tomato, relish and other yummy toppings). We will definitely revisit and tell our friends.
Delicious food and beer choices. Get the Mexican street corn, get two of them they are phenomenal! Also had a burger and a pint by local brewer printers brewery which was also stellar. Service was good and our food came out fast! Cute decor inside and lots of good food options to choose from, add in good beer and what more could you ask for ?
Absolutely fantastic. The foods awesome and the service is outstanding. Very unique take on burgers, pasta, sandwiches and more.
I went Thursday to last week and was beyond impressed. Cool atmosphere, unique food, and great service. I ordered the whistle-stop BLT and added the blackened salmon. The sandwich was so good that it is literally all I thought about all weekend. I didn’t have dinner plans for Monday so me and a couple of friends drove out to Carrollton from Douglasville to eat here… And it did not meet my expectations at all. The food was nowhere near as good as it was the previous week and I was extremely disappointed. Service was still great, atmosphere was still cool, but the food was not up to par. Why?
Wanted to love this place and in fact was really happy with my first couple of experiences when it first opened but has definitely gone down hill. The last time my husband and I went the service was pretty bad but we just blew it off as being busy. The second time after that we went and there were hardly any people there..it took 45 minutes to get our food, we both ordered burgers to be cooked medium and my goodness we got hockey pucks for $11 instead, should have sent it back but we arent those type of people. Nothing against college kids but if youre going to have them cooking you should have a chef in your kitchen along side!
What a nice gem of a place in a small town. Food was good, service was a little slow. Nice selection of beer.
Great food and service! The Heavenly Sin Dip is a must-try. Their side of collard greens is very good. Ive had the She Crab Soup, Shrimp and Grits, the Fried Green Tomato Sandwich and their hamburgers. All were delicious! I highly recommend Brown Dog Deli.
Absolutely delicious! Our server Gabriella made sure that we had everything that we need. Our appetizer of duck fries were great, and the salmon was decadent! Will be back!
Brown Dog is a nice rustic bar/restaurant just off the Square in Carrollton. Very good environment. Loud at times, but that is a testament to how great the place is because so many people love to come there. Food is very good, they have a variety of excellent meals. Very good place to eat prior to a concert at the Amp - which is just beside Brown Dog.
Phenomenal mixed drinks! Ceviche for an app is perfect. Great service and personable staff. Cant go wrong with dinner or lunch, but its often quite busy and its not a big place. One of the best in town to dine.
My husband and I grabbed a late lunch here recently one Sunday. I kept mentioning the decor to my husband because they had done such a great job.The food was okay at best. We make way better hamburgers at home and we still laugh at the price he paid for the bowl of grits with 6 pieces of shrimp 🤦😂But the decor was cute and the waitress was okay too 🤷
Really good food and service. I had the pork chop with cheesy grits and collard greens. I really dont eat collard greens, but the chop and grits were very flavorful. I also had the strawberry short cake. It was very good. I really liked the custard on it.My son had a burger and it was really thick! He couldnt finish it and thats saying something for a 15 year old. He finished off his meal with some pecan pie. Maybe thats why he didnt finish his burger? 😂 Anyway, he thought it was delicious.I cant remember her name, but the server did a great job. Lastly, it can get expensive - just a warning.
The service was extremely slow. We arrived and there were a few people in the restaurant. They had like 4 kitchen staff and six waitresses. We were served by the bartender. It took 45 minutes to receive a chili dog fries a chicken sandwich and potato salad. They will not get our business again. IT IS NOT WORTH THE HYPE.
The Cubano is delicious!😋 green beans were fresh and the tea hit the spot! Definitely will recommend for a cute place to eat with great food.
I had fried chicken and waffles. The gravy was the best thing on my plate, thats saying a lot because the chicken and waffles were all wonderful. Some of the best fried chicken Ive had in awhile. The bartender was our server, as we sat at the bar and he was extremely friendly and helpful. 10/10 experience.
Ohhhh. My. Yum. Everything was delicious, the staff could not have been nicer or more attentive, and sitting outside on the deck on a beautiful Saturday was just perfect. Highly recommend this place! Great variety on the menu from fish tacos to french dip sandwiches to macaroni and cheese. Something for everyone. Kids meals come on keepsake frisbees and the amphitheater is right across the street so immediately after eating my kids took off to play while I got to sit and enjoy the sunshine.
ABSOLUTELY THE best food in Carrollton, GA!
We loved the food and the environment here!
We had our crew in Carrollton GA and wanted to experience a local restaurant. This was such a great choice. They accommodated our large group and everyone enjoyed the food and experience. I really like hamburgers and The Brown Dog makes one of the best I’ve had.
The food at Brown Dog is fresh and delicious. I was trying to decide what to recommend, but I couldn’t decide because everything there is delicious. The Southern Charm Burger is probably still my favorite, but all there dishes are fantastic. Great daily specials add more variety, and their drink specials are always worth a try. Plus you can get local Printers Ale on tap.
My niece who lives in Villa Rica has mentioned sevetal times how much they love this place. I visited her this past weekend and she took me there. One word: Delicious! The food and service was outstanding. Now no other fries but those fried in duck fat will satisfy me!
My family and I decided to try something new. So happy we did, best food ever. Food so good youll be wanting to go back the next day for more!
First time here I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Menu items as well as the drinks have catchy names my wife had street tacos and I had the codfather fish sandwich. We ended up trading I liked the tacos and she liked the sandwich more.
Amazing food, excellent service, fun atmosphere. Warning though…the fried green tomatoes are very addictive!
The staff was friendly and helpful in picking out menu items. The menu was unique and all three of us throughly enjoyed our selections. This was my first visit here, but it will not be my last.
Great experience. Went for our 8 year anniversary. The atmosphere was perfect. Great food & staff
Went with a large group without a reservation and were well accommodated even for weekend brunch time. Food and drink options were creative and had a good variety. All dishes were very tasty! For sides, the mac and cheese is a must.
Both the food and drinks were delicious!
Great food !!! They offer something completely different from all the other places !! Great service and friendly staff!! We will definitely be back!!
Had the blackbean burger and the pig n fig sandwich and they were both delicious! We will definitely be back!
Love this funky little eatery! I had the shrimp tacos with the Mexican corn for the side. Soooo good. If you’re in Carrollton you need to check this place out!!
We were absolutely floored! My husband got the Reuben with loaded potato salad. I got the Fried Green Tomato BLT with fries. Everything was just wonderful but the BLT was a big hit. It had something sweet and something with a hint of spice but not spicy. The fries were dark crispy and the potato salad was creamy lump of deliciousness. We will be coming back very soon. Oh my.Well, we came back with a large party of 8. Didnt know that they automatically charge you 25% for the tip on large parties! Beware! Break up your parties!
Horrible!I went on my lunch break. I asked what options they had for pescatarians. She offered a salmon wrap no bacon. She put the order in . I received my food after 30 min walked to the car & see there is bacon. I ask for another wrap . I wait 10-15 min I get a new wrap no bacon but salmon frozen in the middle and RAW I could have gotten parasites. Got my refund and left. Did not get to eat that day due to spending my whole lunch break there. Very upset I do not recommend. They didn’t even try to do anything to make it up to me for preparing my meal wrong twice and wasting my time. Horrible service .
GREAT FOOD!! LITTLE BIT OF A WAIT, BUT WELL WORTH IT!!! A+++
Enjoyed lunch with the fabulous five chicks minus one chick today. Not one complaint about our lunch. Great waitress and the fish tacos and Mexican street corn was out of this world. Will definitely go back and take my husband next time.
Shrimp tacos and salmon were outstanding. Very cute atmosphere, good for groups of adults and also families.
Great food, service and beer
The food is pretty good, but the wait is REALLY long. It has been 2 hours and we havent got our food yet. Its my birthday and i have other places I have to go quickly. On top of that the waitress felt bad and ONLY gave us a 90¢ discount. Dont eat here.
Good casual plus dining. Food selection is good with an emphasis on heavy southern food. Solid craft beer selection that included three from the local brewery. Service was quick and friendly. Portions are large, so split the appetizers.
Friendly service and great food. Awesome little place by the square. Happy a friend recommended it.
If the white sauce chicken wasnt so damn delicious I would have put 3 stars.The waitress was nice and all but my Valentines and I waited until 4 other tables sat down after us AND got their food before us before I walked up to the bar tender and asked what was going on. About 5 minutes later we had our food. But that was at least 20 to 30 mins waiting.Mind you when we walked in the door there was about 6 other couples in the bar in total.By the time we finished eating everyone that was there when we got there was gone. As was everyone who arrived after we ordered.
Excellent food. Nice decor but a lot of hard surfaces make it a little loud inside. Place is bustling so not a negative kind of loud. Excellent Charleston SC and coastal inspired recipes.
Went to brown dog Saturday 07/20/2019 with some out of town friends. The restaurant was crowded but we were able to be seated immediately outside on the patio. My guests were impressed with the food as it was excellent and the service was very friendly and very attentive. My only complaint about Brown Dog is the drinks are priced a little too high.
The food here is really good. The atmosphere was really nice as well. The wait staff was polite, and accommodating. Only thing keeping from a 5 star is the price. I feel like their menu items run about 1-2 dollars more expensive than what they should be.

2022-07-07We stopped here while in the area on a Thursday at 5. We were seated immediately but it wasn’t busy. Our servers were efficient and friendly. The draft beer selection was modest but covered most types of beers. We got the pale ale and it was cold and delicious. $6.50/pint. We got the Three pigs wrap and the short rib grilled cheese with Mexican corn and collards (spicy good!). The food was excellent. The flavors meshed nicely and was seasoned well. The portions were generous for the price.We will eat here again!

2022-05-15Do you have over an hour time to wait for mediocre food? This place is for you. My side of fries were nothing but crumbs from the last parts of the french fry bag. My mother in laws burger was salty. My husbands fig-n-pig sandwich was good, but they skimped out on the meat. Spend your money elsewhere...dont even bother wasting time or money here.Our server was nice and friendly when she came to the table, but she went missing when I needed more napkins. I had to use my husbands napkin. She never came back with napkins. Would never come back here.

2022-02-24OMG, the food was fantastic. If shrimp and grits is on the menu, that is what I will order. This dish was heavenly, the grits were smooth and flavorful and the shrimp was perfection. Poutine, a popular Canadian dish, was a surprise to see so I also ordered it. I was not disappointed. The only downside is the restaurant is 90 miles from home. If I find myself in Carrollton again I am definitely eating here.

2021-11-14This place is absolutely amazing! The food is delicious, they have a wide variety of mixed drinks, draft beer and bottle beer and no complaints about the service. The mixed drinks are a bit pricy but the food is reasonably priced.

2021-09-23Great food. Their draft beer selection always has a great variety of local and current beers. The cocktails are intuitive and great tasting. Their daily food specials are always great. Best place to eat on the square in Carrollton. Highly recommended.

2022-04-25The restaurant seems to be in a beautiful historic building, and gives it an infinite amount of charm. When I asked what a southern side dish I had never had was, they came back with a small sample for me without me asking or even having the idea. The grits were truly wonderful, and is something I should try again sometime soon. All the food was stunning, and my dad said he had one of the best sandwiches he had ever had.

2022-06-28This little place is becoming a favorite place for me. Food is deliciously different and will leave a great impression making you think about what youre going to try next time. Awesome service each time Ive visited. Always full, but the environment is light hearted and fun, so you dont feel crowded.

2021-03-28Absolutely Fantastic!!! The atmosphere, the food and the service were all on point! We tried 5 different items tonight from She Crab soup to Moon Pie banana pudding and each was done to perfection. You must check this place out. You wont regret it!
