It's delicious and consistent... I've been quite a few times since I started working across the street. (Im addicted ) my first time the staff was really friendly and helpful & the sandwich was amazing! The service is always great and the food is always good! Definitely recommend

Sandwiches are ok but I find it off putting that I have to fill out a form of how to make the sandwich, then I go to counter to pay, then I come back to the counter to get my food. And yet, the deli has the suggested tip at 15% and 20%. For what ?

A friend and I LOVE this great sandwich shop! At least once a month when we’re out busy running errands - we will pop in and get a delicious and fresh sammie!My personal fave is the egg salad and add bacon - out of this world!Today my friend had the BLT - and she said it was also amazing!But really, everything we’ve tried is outstanding.Sandwiches are highly customizable to your own desiresThe lemonade is also top notch!Keep in mind - they are a cashless biz.Dietary restrictions: Highly customizable menu with plenty of options

I've been coming to Brown Bag for years and love their sandwiches. This location 2036 Westheimer is not the closest to home but is by far my favorite location. The sandwiches are always great, but I'm writing this review about the service. Every star in this particular review is for the workers. They are always pleasant and helpful. I'm always greeted with a smile and a " Have a great day" or " Thank You, have a good one" . It's nice to be served with a smile and a genuine pleasant attitude. It's really what keeps me coming back here. Great Job!!!

Seriously the genius is in its simplicity. I've been here a few times always get the same thing a turkey club and it's always so good. If you're looking for a no-frills sandwich that's just made it really really well, I highly recommend

The turkey sandwich on wheat bun is absolutely delish. I love a good, homemade sandwich! BBD gets it right everytime. Once I win the lottery, I'm going to eat here everyday. The chocolate chip cookie is so good.

I love coming here. The sandwiches are always great. If you haven't tried them then you're missing out. You have to try the wheat bread it has a hint of sweetness to it. This place is easily my top go to for a sandwich.

I finally came to the newly built BBD on westheimer near S Shepherd and let me tell you this location disappointed me greatly! I've been here when it was the run down hole in the wall location and back then I never had any issues. The issue wasn't the service, but how my sandwich or what was in my sandwich per say. Most BBDs are know for its massive portion of meat and thin sliced bread along with whatever fixings you choose. But today I had 1 inch thick white bread and a ton of lettuce and the meat was barely visible. Needless to say yes this bummed me out cuz there's TONS of nice restaurants, bars, etc in a 2 block radius, but I chose this cuz I know how they make their sandwiches And yes it's a sandwich! Paying $15 for a sandwich is already ridiculous but we choose to pay it cuz how it normally comes. Sometimes I even order double meat just to see the mountain of meat they gonna put in my sandwich, but I didn't today and it felt like I really got the short end for sure Every bite was bread and lettuce and not gonna lie it was hard to eat. I didn't wanna bitch about it cuz they were busy and everyone knows , you don't bitch about food as long as it's not extremely terrible cuz I didn't want them to give me a new sandwich with " extra sauces " Oh well, the Rice Village location is my go to and I should've just went there.
I love the sandwiches here. Good bread to filling ratio. They’re a little expensive but worth it for getting exactly what you want.

The people who helped me out at the counter were both super cool. My sandwich was ready in under a minute which was awesome. Great portion and quality for the price. I got a sandwich with extra meat, cookie and drink for about 15 dollars. Highly recommend stopping by!

So happy they've reopened and now open on Sunday's! Best sandwich place in town. Egg salad on a jalapeno cheese bun is what I always get. Service is always great and they are fast getting orders out.

My new fave Montrose sandwich shop! Okay it's not new, but it has gotten a total refresh due to a building remodel. I love all of the sandwich options, but I'm currently crushing on one of the signature specialties call 'The Boss's Wife.' Wifey knows what's up! This wrap has shaved buffalo chicken, feta, lettuce, tomato, pickles, cucumber and avocado. I add Sriracha ranch for extra kick. Order online for easy pickup, but it's pleasant to dine in bc it's so bright and clean, and the music is frigging awesome - Stone Roses, Cure, Siouxsie, INXS all playing mellowly during this visit! Staff is super friendly. You could grab a cookie next door but honestly the chocolate chip cookies here are probably just as good. I only wish they were open later for my evening Brown Bag cravings!
