Wow! I don't know how this was the first time I've eaten here, but it was delicious. No frills just Great food! It was fairly empty when we arrived but packed by the time we left. Small dining area. We had a variety of meats and veggie options as well as dessert. Everyone loved it all and it was all very fresh. Will definitely go back!

Looking for a good hole in the wall restaurant? I am an electrician doing service work all over Tuscaloosa and working in northport , needed somewhere quick to eat. I found it. Very friendly greeting upon entry by a family put together staff. I like to see people take pride in their businesses. This family does. I will be back to try those fried green tomatoes! Pulled pork was excellent!

I could eat here everyday. I love the barbecue, sides such as fried green tomatoes, macaroni and cheese, collard greens, turnip greens, and baked beans. The buttermilk pie is a must!!

If you want to truly taste Soul Food that is made from the heart, then you have to try this place. It is a little off the beaten path, but worth the trip. My wife and I were out touring the Birmingham area (shopping at Ollie's) and headed for Tuscaloosa to look for somewhere to eat. After reading the reviews we had to try it. The staff is friendly, the service is impeccable and the food, well lets just say if I was having my last meal on this Earth, I want to order it from here.

I just do not know how Brown Bag has been operating "under the radar" of so many folks. I ate lunch here today based on the recommendations of 2 friends, and WOW, am I glad that they gave me the heads-up! First thing to know is that Brown Bag is off the beaten path. You honestly have to be going here to get here, but GPS and Bing directions led me straight to the door. A parking lot filled with pick-up trucks at noon is generally a sign of good things to come. Brown Bag is a small non-descript block building unceremoniously placed at an odd angle on a lot that appears to be either somebody's front yard or somebody else's back yard. The parking lot is in disrepair, big pot holes (more like Moon Craters) make certain that drivers manuver slowly and carefully. The inside of the restaurant is every bit as non-descript as the exterior. Black and white checkerboard floor sets off the mostly plain walls. There are 4 or 5 booths and 3 or 4 tables, so not much room. But, I can't remember when I have gotten a more heartfelt greeting that I received from my server Phyliss Brown, one of the owners. She was moving purposely around the dining room and back and forth from the kitchen making sure that everyone was happy and well served. The only thing better than great service is great food, and Brown Bag served up some GREAT food! I had the bbq rib plate with steamed squash & butter beans for sides, my plate also came with a square of cornbread. The veggies were both good, seasoned with a bit of sugar giving a hint of sweetness, the corn bread was home made and had a delicious rustic look and feel to it. Then, the ribs were unbelievable. So tender, So tasty, So yummy. Their home made BBQ sauce (made by the "senior" Mrs. Brown) is truly special, a kind of peppery taste that set off the ribs perfectly. The bill for my lunch: Ribs (2) 2 sides & iced tea was a whopping $7.74 If I had a half star to give I'd go 4.5 On my next trip I am planning to eat catfish, I just might up this to 5 afterwards. Do yourself a favor and find your way up Hwy 43 N, look carefully for the sign to turn to Brown Bag Restaurant.

This is one of the biggest dives I've been to that is even harder to find than the original Dreamland's but it is well worth the effort. The food was all outstanding. Their bbq is done with a mustard-based sauce which is unique in Alabama. The sides and desserts are all fantastic, too. It's some of the best soul food I've had in my life.

So, you're in the mood for a little meat-and-three? Tucked in the back of Northport, there's a solace - The Brown Bag. True Southern food and fabulous Southern hospitality abound here.....once you find it! :) It's a little tricky to get to, but once you're here, order some really tasty goodness. While everything I've had has been excellent - nicely cooked with just the right amount of flavor/fat, I still dream about their fried green tomatoes. They're the thin, crispy kind that come in orders of three with a meal and are just stellar. So, turn on the Garmin or Google Maps or whathaveyou, and turn into the gravel parking lot of The Brown Bag. You'll be pleasantly surprised.....and full!

This is an awesome place to eat! It's soulful food, severed by the family! They have great veggies that are seasoned with spices! The cake is wonderful! now don't get me wrong it is in an old building and in a back yard location, but it's not that bad! Please go out and give them a try it's really good!!!
