Sharon B.

They have great sandwiches but I do love their green salad with the spicy low cal ranch dressing with a scoop of tuna fish salad. That's what I usually order when we go to a Board and Brew. We also ordered a Roast Beef Spicy sandwich and it was delicious too. Love that it came with au jus on the side though it was cold. This chain location was airy and open with a nice outdoor patio area. The service was good too.

CHICKEN CLUB
Christine B.

We love going to board and brew for quick yummy sandwiches! Our go to is the chicken club * Chicken Club (Spinach Wrap) - 8.4/10 (the warm chicken & melted jack cheese makes a great combination. i love how the bacon is soft & juicy. it's served warm w/ lots of fresh veggies inside. you do have to add their special sauce with every bite as it elevates the wrap to another level, because it could be a tad bit dry. i like to ask for this one in the spanish wrap at no extra cost!) * Tub-o-Tuna - 7.9/10 (this sandwhich is LOADED. they add a great amount of avocado which pairs well with the tuna salad. nothing too special about the tuna itself, as it tasted like your typically tuna salad. i do love all the veggies inside the sandwich as this is a great option if you're looking for something healthy. i wish that they toasted the sweet wheat bread so it could add a nice crunch)

Coming from a typically cold climate, the outdoor seating did it for me along with the laid back vibes. A bunch of people eating, enjoying some beers and sharing good times! I really like enjoying the sunshine and a good sandwich. I ordered the turkey and cheese, but they did forget the cheese. It was still a tasty sandwich. The service was nice and friendly. I like this location, just feels more upbeat and bright!

delicious sandwiches and wraps with cooked chicken and great savory sauce. They are open til 9pm! That's late for Poway believe it or not. Casual noce atmosphere with bar kombucha inside. Friendly service!!

Quick stop for lunch - ordered a healthy veggie supreme sandwich - avocado and their special sauce on the side. This location always has the best service! They are very quick, and it's clean! They never make errors on my order, even when I add or remove items. And the veggies are always fresh and crisp! If you are out for happy hour, this location offers a small bar with an inside/outside patio seating area that is the perfect place to enjoy your food! Definitely recommend!

Second time this month, they messed up a simple order!! I always order a chicken club with no tomato. Last time- it came without cheese. This time no cheese or bacon!!! Yes, I checked my online order to ensure of how I ordered. Sandwich was awful and dry. When I called the store- no answer and voicemail not set up. Horrible!!!!

Baja beef with beauty as a fix-in
Tylor E.

Best and most regular sandwich spot on my purview. The setting is chill and classical with good vibes on the airwaves. For the crew that enjoy the hard bread: this place dishes it out every time. I am happily impressed with the Baja Beef and has become a regular thing most days. For the people who like regular timing: I head there for happy hour or for lunch which is when this is review is being written. Gunna throw out the proud crew for this review: Madi, Alyssa, Noah, Trevor and Mike. The fact that I know them is because they like to reach out and make sure things are awesome for me and my family. Whatever you need, they'll help if they can. coloring items for kids? Got it. Discussions on hobbies or sports? The bar has you covered. Sandwich customizations? Ezpz and always delivered. Great crew. Earned a regular for a reason. Bright, active and informed group.

Board & Brew is a nice place to eat whenever you find yourself in the Poway area. My friend and I stopped her for lunch; he had the Left Coast Pastrami, and I had the French Dip Roast Beef sandwich. Mine came with horseradish on the side that broad tears to my eyes. The bread was nicely toasted. Tip: Their HH prices are really good, and they have a surprisingly broad beer selection :-) Service here is attentive, and the venue is very clean.

Grilled cheese add bacon & avocado :)
Sheridan M.

Board and Brew never disappoints! Me and my coworker went on our lunch break and she recommended to get the grilled cheese add bacon and avocado. It was a 10/10. I love how fresh everything is here. And that SAUCE Is to die for ;)

California Delight
Brianna L.

First time at this location and it is just as good as the others. Pros: * Nice staff; I had some questions and she was able to help me * Fast service * Very clean and nice restaurant * Delicious sandwiches! I like the California delight and sub out a different cheese. Cons: * N/A Extra: * Plenty of Parking * They have an indoor/outdoor bar area that is really nice

This is the worst sandwich I've ever had. Tasteless bread lettuce, meat. I will never go back. They had no condiments on it either.

Out of everything, my favorite is the ability for this place to stay consistent and that all food is tasty and flavorful while having a huge menu. I really enjoy the spicy mayo here. The servers are always so nice and paying is through their toast little handheld device. Parking spots are plentiful, but a little small in size. This place is god for big parties and I love coming here when there is a game because the multiple tvs are typically basketball/baseball/football. I highly recommend coming here!

The staff are very friendly and greet you immediately, except for the sushi chef, who is very stern and does not engage. We came at opening, and the place was empty, for a Saturday, I found that strange. We were told to choose any seat we wanted. Service was quick and very attentive. The menu has a little of everything, but it definitely caters more to the American palate than the Japanese. We ordered Spicy Cucumbers and Shishito Peppers as starters. Both were good. They actually tasted really good when you ate them together. For our mains, we ordered Unagi sashimi style, the honey roll, and the Roka roll. To be brutally honest, I rate sushi restaurants based on their Unagi. For me, it has to be cut very traditionally and served the same. This Unagi did not meet my standards, and yet, it was very tasty and fresh. It was a good surprise. The Honey Roll was very fresh and tasty, except for the lemon on top. The pith was not removed, and it gave it a bitter aftertaste. When we removed the lemon, it was very good. I did not like the Roka Roll, but my daughter really enjoyed it. It was missing something, in my opinion. The portions are generous, so you can fill up with just a few selections. This was just not to my palate. We asked for hot tea, and they brought us a coffee mug with a tea bag and hot water. As I said, more American than Japanese in style. The worst part for me was the ladies' room. I doubt they can do much about this, but there is such a strong sewer smell in there that it is overpowering and really hard to use the bathroom.

The staff was very warm and welcoming, though throughout the evening it definitely felt like they may have been short staffed and stretched a bit thin. Since we were headed to a movie after dinner, we decided to keep things light and share appetizers plus dessert. We tried the Fried Shishito Peppers, Veggie Potstickers, Grilled Broccolini, Rosemary Garlic Fries, Whipped Burrata, Garlic Noodles, Salmon Poke Tacos, and Lamb Chops. Overall, the food was decent but nothing especially memorable. The lamb chops were cooked nicely but could have used more seasoning, and the poke tacos were tasty but tiny -- literally about the size of my pinky for each taco. We were disappointed they had sold out of both the Crème Brûlée Bread Pudding and the Budino, which were the desserts we originally wanted to try. Thankfully, the Butter Toffee Cake completely saved dessert for us -- absolutely delicious and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, a cute spot with good vibes for a girls night, but the food itself didn't quite live up to the hype for us.

Our server recommended a special habanero roll, and my friend ordered the Hawaii rolls--both were excellent. Another friend ordered a burger and really enjoyed it as well, so the kitchen is definitely doing something right. Where things fell short was the service. Our server started off great--friendly and with a good vibe--but as the evening went on, things slowed down noticeably. The host was not very attentive; we had to ask multiple times for items, and drinks were delayed until our server eventually followed up. It felt like no one else was stepping in to help. There were also a few mix-ups. We ordered crème brûlée and cheesecake, but were mistakenly given bread pudding that belonged to another table. It took about 20 minutes for the server to return and let us know about the error. While it wasn't added to our bill, there wasn't much effort made to make up for the inconvenience. I also ordered another glass of wine that never arrived--though, to be fair, I wasn't charged for it. Toward the end of the night, service became even more inconsistent. We were ready to pay, but the server disappeared for a while, and when he finally took our card, he seemed distracted and took extra time chatting with another table. Overall, it's a nice spot--especially for a summer dinner--and the food is definitely worth trying. However, the service needs improvement before I'd consider coming back.

I also had a Luguna wheat beer ($9). Beer wss good and burger was typical, but the bun was more dry than I like. Plenty of parking outside and the place was very open spacious. I'd come back again, but would wanna try something else than the burger and maybe come back for HH as prices were on the higher side.

I see they've revamped the walls upstairs and seem to have added more seatings too. I noticed they have a water dispensary area which is self serve. There's also a QR code for the menu, but I went ahead and searched the menu online and was helped by Tristan when all my friends have already placed their orders. He made sure to ask how I wanted my eggs done and if I wanted to add anything else. But also orders can be placed using the scanned QR if a server hasn't had a chance to check on your table. I ordered the avocado Benedict with hash. My friends ordered the chilaquiles and french toast, and a bunch others that I didn't get to take a pic of. However, I was able to try the chilaquiles, and the steak on that was so flavorful, the tortilla chips were nice and crispy, and the sauce in the bottom had a slight kick to it but with the mix of crema it helped balanced out perfectly. As for the cinnamon brioche french toast, that was one of the best French toast I've had in a while. Nice and crispy but still fluffy in the middle, with that nice cinnamon flavor, topped with whipped cream and berries. As for my order of the avocado Benedict. You can choose how you want your eggs cooked, and I had mine poached. Can def. Add other proteins to the dish with extra charge, but I wanted to keep it as is. The brioche bread was fluffy and buttery like too, it was great for absorbing some of that hollandaise sauce and yolk. My friends also ordered two bottles for mimosas. We had lychee and mango syrup/puree and it gave such a tropical and summer vibe. We also ended our meal with some desserts. We had the cream puff ube, cake choc brownie, and cheesecake caramel apple. My fav. Out of the three, was the cake choc brownie. I think I would be able to eat two of those if I wasn't full. Just loved how the chocolate mousse on the top melted in the mouth, but also that brownie isn't the typical brownie texture. It has a crisp to it. The mousse and crispiness just melts so deliciously together. I should've ordered another for takeout. Service was great despite it looking busy. Food didn't take too long to come out either. But we also did dine in at a decent time too. We had such a good time, especially for my friends who tried it out for the first time. I see they also have a dinner menu now. Maybe we'll come back to try that next time!
