This little gem is one of a kind. It is all family owned & you can tell they care. I come from Birmingham & eat here when I’m in town. The bbq is out of this world. But I would eat there no matter what they served just because they are so compassionate & put all their love into their customers and food. You’re instantly family when you walk in & it feels like eating a home cooked southern meal with my Granddaddy. I’ll always be back as long as they’re in business.

This place is everything I love about living in Alabama. It reminds me of a Sunday dinner (aka lunch) at my granny’s house when I was a kid. It has no frills, it’s nothing fancy, just a wonderful home cooked meal and friendly service from the sweet family who owns it.

The food was good I do not like how little is the portion of the food for the price I paid for they got too give out a little more than what they gave I felt like a little kid what they gave me

We walked in and everyone was so friendly and genuine! You can tell the restaurant is its own community full of love. Owned by a family with loyal customers for years. We got the ribs and catfish and it was phenomenal! Will be coming again!

Today I allowed my son to decide where we were going to eat. And he chose the Brown Bag. Let me tell you, he made the right choice!!!! I ordered the catfish sandwich with a side order of fried green tomatoes. My son ordered chicken and dumplings with a side of macaroni and cheese. This place did not disappoint. Our server Ms. Phyllis was wonderful, kind, and patient. The food was served fresh and it was absolutely delectable. The prices were reasonable.
I can’t wait to visit again.

Do not leave Tuscaloosa without stopping at Brown Bag. Bring an appetite and extra cash to tip an outstanding and overly accommodating staff.
Catfish, fried green tomatoes, and turnips left no room for dessert unfortunately. I also tried the chicken and dumplings and a rib or two.
Hole in the wall and my kinda place.

We visited the Brown Bag after being curious about it for quite some time. We had a lovely lunch there!
You can smell the delicious smoke from outside the restaurant. It’ll stick with you, too, after you leave. 🙂
Walking in, the seating/ordering was a bit confusing. We stood around for 2-3 minutes wondering if we should order at the counter before being told we could sit anywhere we liked. The menus were brought to us shortly afterward. I think this place is mostly attended by regulars, so it’s not surprising that the folks there would assume we knew what to do.
My boyfriend and I had chicken and dumplings, lima beans, macaroni and cheese, cornbread, fried catfish, and fried okra, with sweet tea to drink. It sounds like a ton of food, but the portions and prices were reasonable. The lima beans were the bigger, mushier, brown kind, not the tender greener beans that I prefer, but these still had a nice meaty, oniony flavor.
The macaroni and cheese was baked, I think; it had a bit of a crust to it, which I liked a lot. The sweet tea was diabetes-inducing, so I naturally loved it. Cornbread was savory but not too sandy or crumbly. The chicken and dumplings was just a little too mushy, but the flavors were very solid. The fried okra, though, was some of the best I’ve ever had. Fresh, crispy, and light (as fried food goes!). Catfish was also delicious — even I liked it, and I usually won’t touch fish!
One of the highlights of our visit was the service. There was one particular man with a heavy beard who had one of the most genuine, kind smiles. He was absolutely lovely and it was a pleasure to get to speak with someone so friendly and positive. Check this place out when you’re itching for a drive on a sunny day.
