About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Set in Kansas City’s historic City Market, Brown and Loe Restaurant’s inviting atmosphere is a blend of “big city” bistro with the welcoming casual flavor of a neighborhood favorite. Housed in a former Merchant’s Bank constructed in 1920, the restaurant honors the architectural details of the two-story building which features a façade of plate glass and verde marble floors and walls.
In the 1940’s, Brown and Loe was originally a produce broker with offices on the second floor of the Merchant’s Bank building. The new Brown and Loe Restaurant celebrates the techniques of curing, pickling and smoking meats, beautifully interpreted into marvelous American comfort cuisine. This is a true local venue, evidenced by the restaurant’s allegiance to the resident farmers and food artisans who supply most of the restaurant’s fresh ingredients.
Brown and Loe Restaurant is the second dining concept introduced by Harry Murphy, owner of the City Market’s popular Harry’s Country Club.

    The best place for breakfast/brunch in the city. Potato pancakes were wonderful! Good Bloody Mary! Chorizo Bierrock was great. Love the atmosphere.

    We are regulars at Brown and Loe. It's such a great place to meet up with friends or family. Today, our server was particularly oustanding! Thank you "Rick" for sharing your joy through service on this Easter Sunday. Loran Fish

    Food was outstanding, service was better. We had Easter brunch with family. Hostess was very gracious at check in. Rick our server was best we’ve had anywhere. Loved the zucchini bread, biscuits and gravy, eggs benny. But all was perfect. Great location at City Market, very cool part of town.

    Brown and Loe is consistently good on all levels--food, service, drinks. We needed to meet in a quieter spot and the hostess was kind enough to offer the vault. Salmon was phenomenal. Brown and Loe is a great experience!
