Browns (Docklands) review by TC

Browns obviously divides people, and judging from the comments below dramatically so and in all respects. But the food I had last night was consistently good: the pear and stilton starter we shared (replete with a superflous layer of rocket, true) and then the liver and bacon I had for mains. The Chilean Pinot Noir was a perfectly reasonable accompaniment..

The service was functional from an otherwise hilariously bored, casual and intermittently moody waitress. Personally I prefer this to psychopathically thin smiles and insincere stock phrases, but other people I know like a little bit more pandering as they eat... Apart from that, I liked the spacious decor and relaxed atmosphere (Saturday night is half-empty in Canary Wharf); the only real error they made was sometime an inapproriate choice of music.

So, I guess I found Browns handy and pleasant, although obviously inconsistent. I'd say it's nice if you're nearby - but judging from the comments below, probably not worth the risk if you're trying to imrpess someone with something really special.
