Browns Crafthouse UBC

I have a few notes about the loaded veggie pizza. The crust, sauce, and cheese are great. However, the combination of toppings makes it too acidic and salty. Mine came with both marinated artichoke and marinated banana peppers. It would have been more bearable without the latter. Also, the arugula on top had been mixed with, I think, lemon juice -- I don't think this is necessary. Perhaps they wanted to wilt it a little bit so that it's easier to eat as a topping, but I think most people are fine with plain, springy arugula. Other than that, service was excellent and music was great. I will be coming back at a later date to suss out the pizza margherita :-

Nice atmosphere with great natural lighting. Kind staff but the food is a bit pricey. Ordered the Hawaiian 12" pizza to share between two. Never seen such a THIN crust. WOW. Paper thin. Not a horrible thing but you definitely can roll this whole thing up into a burrito.

Crispy Chicken Sandwich gets a 9/10. If you're a sandwich person, this is your sign to order that! We also got the mimosa tower! Great portion sizes when I've gone here, fun and lively vibe, cool signs on the walls, and have only encountered good and helpful staff.

Came here today for a work lunch and had a very tasty Tuna Ahi Crunch bowl, ordered on the recommendation of colleagues! Such a filling portion, the seared tuna was perfection and I loved the crunch the crispy noodles added. Service was also very friendly and attentive!

This restaurant completely surprised me. We visited on a rainy day and were met with an indoor patio experience, topped with heat lamps from above. It really dried us off while we were there. The food was amazing, especially the salad options. We also took advantage of the happy hour drink specials. Would definitely come back for more.

Excellent food. We ordered sushi and beef bowl. The sushi was something I never tried before and it was great. The tofu in the beef bowl was really tasty.

Mika and Ki did great for the service and they are helpful and all staffs are friendly. The food was delicious. June 18th Jordan did great for recommending me the pizzas she was super friendly and helpful and Marco did great and he’s friendly and helpful too.

Service has been bad here for me multiple times. Came here with a group and they didn't take our menus after ordering food, didnt check on people who weren't offered drinks yet, and took over 20 min to clear our plates. It seemed like they didn't care about giving us good service, probably because there's an 18% auto-gratuity on groups anyway. The food is also low-quality and overpriced. $14 for steamed edamame, and the pizzas are way too thin and have very few toppings. Only 1-2 pieces of pineapple per slice, barely any meat, and not enough cheese. Drinks only $1 off for happy hour. Overall not good value. Nice atmosphere though.

Amazing service here!! I love coming to browns as it always takes me back to my university time! Me and my husband moved to the ubc area just a little while ago and so thankful to have this place so close by. We come here and chill with a beer or wine and some pizza on most weekdays or weekends!! As a bonus they have a patio open so we don't have to take out food now, Very clean and sanitized, following all the required covid protocols. I definitely recommend getting their loaded veggie pizza and nachos if you're a vegetarian like me.

I'm currently eating here now with my coworkers from The Delly! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and our server didn't catch his name is great! He's always checking up on us and us very patient with our crazy group of 16. On top of this the food is really amazing! I'm not paying that's my boss' job! But they deserve more than whatever tip he leaves!
