Delicious sandwich, but the coffee was iced. I asked them to heat it up for me, they didn't want to and they gave me the money back for the coffee.
We went here for breakfast early on a Sunday morning. We stayed in the Hyatt for our son's soccer tournament and needed a quick breakfast. We ordered the Cacao smoothie, yogurt bowl, and burrito. The breakfast burrito was fantastic! Everything was fresh and delicious. The employee who waited on us was friendly.

It was my turn to buy lunch for a business owners' group of which I am a member. I tried the Brown Bag in Bethesda, where I have eaten on site more than a dozen times. The buy was easy using the Brown Bag website, choosing a mixed box of sandwiches, chips, and utensils. The delivery was timely, and the members of the group complimented the food! There is no doubt I will buy from them again!

I hope I get a chance to eat there again! The Cajun Burrito was so flavorful and perfect!

I'm willing to give this place another shot, but based on this morning's experience, it will take some convincing. My office is at Bethesda Metro Center so I decided to give Brown Bag a try for breakfast as alternative to Starbucks. I signed up for the App, completed my order and proceeded to walk over around pick up time. I went to the online order pick up shelving and didn't see that mine was ready yet, so I got my coffee. Lukewarm. I stood around patiently waiting for someone to acknowledge me or appear with my order. Nothing. Finally, the lone person there looked at me and then at the order on her counter and BEGAN to make my veggie scramble. By that time, 2 other employees (one manager?) started working furiously on larger orders. I inquired if this was the normal process...food prepared upon arrival (not having been there before). I was told they were slammed. No apology, and then just glaring looks from the person preparing my eggs. She tossed a piece of bread in the toaster and plopped it into the to-go bowl--hardly toasted.I will say the eggs were good, but the non-welcoming atmosphere won't have me running back soon.

Great location. Friendly staff. Tasty breakfast and lunch.Only complaint is that the straws they use break as soon as you put any pressure even with your lips, and they use too much plastic when they claim they are environmentally minded. Other than that, everything is good.

Brown bag is fantastic, they have calories posted and lots of options to choose from for salads and sandwiches. Get in early for the soup of the day, usually there’s only 2 options and they go quickly! Smoked turkey is moist, but left bank chicken salad is a classic. Can’t go wrong. Give your phone number for points too, they add up and you can get $10 off your meal
Dietary restrictions: They are really good about dietary restrictions and allergies!

Food was great. A lot of options even in the AM. Will eat there again.
Oh, I had such high hopes for this establishment. I've wanted to try their food for such a long time. Well I found a hair in my salad, which is absolutely disgusting. I'm disappointed that this happened and I definitely will not be eating food from them again.

Tried to place an order for 15 mins but couldn't. You fill in a card with your order and it is set up totally confusing (cards designed badly), had many questions (that didn't fall into their boxes), no one to ask, no one to take the card, asked other customers standing there, also did not know. The people behind the counters completely ignored me so I couldn't ask a question or give my card to anyone. Just left as it wasn't worth the hassle. Didn't actually try the food as I couldn't get that far.
