We don't go to Codys in Brownwood and haven't for over a year. Twice I had problems with the food and it's not the problem things happen it's how they handled it. The manager was very rude both times. Once was a fly in the baked potato and once was a rib bone on my hamburger. They wouldn't even take anything off the bill. At first.

Never had an issue with Cody's food or staff unless I don't get my peanuts.

Well, here's to hoping it's better in 2017 Their food is generally pretty good and Brownwood is a lot more convenient for me than LSL

Your correct, if you have a problem at Cody's Brownwood, it's like an Act of Congress to get anyone (including the heavy set manager) to feel the need or obligation to want to make it good. I had the Sunday special pot roast lunch there (would never recommend it) and they brought me out a plate of gravy with a few tiny slivers of roast beef! I didn't intend on going away hungry so my wife and I asked nicely for them to recitify the situation and they made us feel like criminals in the process!! Finally after a lot of arguing back and forth, this same manager agreed to bring me out more potroast for my gravy but when it arrived it was a cup of gravy with only a few more thin slivers of beef in it! I believe the saying the customer is always right, doesn't apply here, even when the proof is on the plate.

And I always say, why does it always have to fixed at the register?

I just remembered the manager's name who was so unhelpful to us...Todd. Is this the same manager who was so rude to you?

Yep we could retell your story word for word experience for experience. Its clear management doesn't care. Its clear when the problem is service plus food that the only thing that would bring you back is if restaurant takes over.

I've been here 10 years and the quality of eateries has not improved with some notable exceptions. Something is missing in the success equation here?

I'm surprised they had entertainment Monday at Brownwood. They usually don't have any entertainment Sunday or Monday.

I like Cody's at LSL in the summer. Not crowded and good service at the outside bar. I always pay with cash and I always double check my bill before I pay. Sorry this happened to you.
