About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Good for special occasions

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.

As a regular lunch customer at Brown & Loe I can wholeheartedly recommend it for a great lunch anytime. We love the convenience of the parking, the lively urban vibe, the friendly staff and most of all the delicious range of menu items where there is something for everyone. I had the Ratatouille this time, a change from my frequent favorite choice, the unique spaghetti squash. My friend had the Classic Caesar with Salmon. We were both pleased with the freshness and presentation of each dish, both hearty and delicious without feeling stuffed. The service was efficient and kind as always.

Our first time here. Nice patio, food was really good but not great! Service was a bit slow but they were busy outside. We would definitely return - ambiance good, old bank with a long cool bar. Only one restroom which is odd for such a big busy place.
