Brown's Menu

Bown's Root Beer & Sandwich Shop has been on my restaurants to try list for about 3 years now. From a quick glance it appears to be a small eat in diner with an exterior ambiance of an A&W drive-in. Catering to the hungry the menu features coney dogs, burgers, chili cheese fries, and an array of sandwich creations. I decided to try their coney dog as was voted the best coney in 2010 by the local new paper. The chili had great flavor, with just a touch of heat. As for the rest of the food, it was run of the mill. My husband had a burger and he complained that it was very dry. Ewww....nothing worse than a dry burger!

However, if your sweet tooth needs to be satisfied then you're in luck! Brown's fountain drink menu is top notch featuring root beer (they make their own), Vernors, and Coca-cola that can be flavor enhanced with cherry, vanilla or chocolate syrup. Looking for something a little more creamy? How about a root beer float, black cow, or the Michigan favorite, a Boston cooler? I went with a Michigan made product, a Saunders hot fudge cream puff. It was delish! Nothing beats Saunders hot fudge on top of a cream puff shell that is filled with vanilla ice cream.

If you want to try Brown's Root Beer & Sandwich Shop my advice is to call first for the hours. They do not appear to have set hours of business, and were closing for the day at 3pm on a Saturday.
