The place was hopping when I was leaving which I usually look at as a great thing! Definitely worth a go again I'd say!

We piled in, all 16 of us for an office lunch last week, the place was busy with a good atmosphere and despite the fact that nearly all the tables were full, our meals came out quickly and correct for all. It's nice when that happens, you aren't worrying about clock-watching and only having so much time before you have to be back in the office. I had the burger as the pulled pork had sold out (gutting); the burger, as with all the mains dishes, was HUGE. I'm a big guy, I like food, I will always clear my plate (because otherwise mommy would be mad... who me? issues?....not at all). I struggled here, I only just finished the mountainous meal served with the slightly too greasy fries... but finish I did.... because I'm a good little boy. Overall it was tasty, not so much so that I'll rant and rave and promise to be back next week... but good enough and I certainly won't object to going back! Oh, I got to try a couple of the wings as well - they were VERY good!

Even at 2 o'clock on a Wednesday, the place was, if not jumping, at least bouncing contentedly. We were hard pushed to find a table but we did and all unimaginatively ordered typical Italian sandwiches. These were very authentic and came with all the right ingredients, not the usual "Irish panini" i.e. cheddar and ham. Although we didn't get wine, it wasn't because of the lack of it - the café walls also seem to serve as cellar storage - and this would be an excellent option if you were caught empty-handed before a dinner party.

Thank God there was something to look at as out wait was 50mins for a table for four! Queueing at the door with my elderly grandmother was not ideal. Unfortunately the service leaves A LOT to be desired, and (if you check out my previous reviews) generally I'm not very hard to please! Guy behind the counter was rude and almost couldn't be bothered to be there. We never got an apology and instead they tried to seat us in their garden. It's October. It's freezing. That is not okay. Eventually we got a lovely seat inside and the menu was brilliant. For the standard of food the price is great. I'm a sucker for goats cheese and had a panini. Delicious. My party had a quiche, a chicken pie and a cheese board. Everyone agreed it was brilliant food. On the way out I enquired about booking a table for dinner. They do not take reservations! There's no way I'm going out to dinner in the hopes of getting a table. When I asked about it, again the waiter was rude. I wish this place had better service, I would go a lot more often.

During the day it's a coffee shop but in the evenings its French bistro. I've lived in France for 4 years and have an affinity for French food. While I'm not a gastronomic expert, I think I have a fair palate and will say that Brownes does a very nice job. Our party was large enough that I could get a good broad perspective on their food. Each of us ordered a different meal and were very pleased with our food. Appetizers ordered included the duck confit, chicken pate, vegetable soup, and goat cheese salad. All looked very good and I personally found the pate to be delicious. Main courses included the bouef borgunion, pork chop, burger, seafood combination, and chicken special. The portions were of good size and we found the Sharaz wine we ordered to be very good. I would recommend coming here, the manager is French, very friendly and welcoming as is his staff.

The Hungry Duck deserves to succeed. Three of us came for breakfast/brunch and had three very Train wreck dinner. For those of a certain generation it was reminiscent of Fawlty Towers presided over by possibly one of the rudest waiters ever to set foot in a restaurant. The whole place was subdued with an atmosphere that could be cut with a knife. People seemed genuinely afraid to speak out of turn. The meal, although adequate, was in no way memorable and was completely overshadowed by the astonishing service. Would I go back? Not on your nelly.
