Every time I go here they always make my sandwich with love! Every bite tastes so magical. The manager and the lead manager are always happy and with a positive attitude!!! I will be coming here every time I am craving a delicious sandwich! read more

If it's your first time grab the baja chicken. Board and brew is known for their sauce. Every bite with some sauce is how i eat mine. They have quick service as well. I recommend placing an order ahead of time for lunch. read more

Update: I was quickly contacted by the owner Mike who was extremely apologetic and showed genuine concern for the way we were treated. His response and attentiveness to our experience truly makes up for poor service given by Alexa. Thank you Mike for being understanding and showing compassion. I hope your leadership continues to be an example to your staff! With that being said. My go to and highly recommended sandwich is the Baja Chicken - Marinated fresh antibiotic-free chicken, melted jack cheese, grilled onions, jalapeño peppers, lettuce, tomato, & mayo on a toasted French baguette. And can't forget the secret sauce 10/10 read more

I've been coming to various Board and Brew locations for over 15 years now, and this location is as good as the rest. My go-to is the veggie delight sandwich with the special sauce (I'll add turkey on occasion to it), and it is always great. The sandwich ingredients are always fresh and flavorful, and the special sauce adds a nice tangy pop. Board & Brew is a great sandwich spot and I love seeing so many locations pop up in OC. read more

One of my go to's for sandwiches. Love the gluten free wrap option. Super quick service through DoorDash. Order was accurate, food was consistent with my expectations. read more

One of the best veggie sandwiches at a chain restaurant. I wish the had more side options. I will continue to come back. Maybe I'll try the wrap next time read more

First time coming to this location in Costa Mesa and it was a good experience. Got their California Delight sandwich and I shared it with my hubby. It was his first time as well and we both really like the taste of this hearty sandwich. Overall fun filled decor in the store and good service. I'm not sure about that orange sauce but I think the sandwich alone was good enough. One less star for sticky and unbussed tables. read more

Great turkey BLT. Always a clean fun place. Great beer on tap and good service. The Center is not prime but that is not there fault!

Nothing beats some refreshing sandwiches after a long day out walking and doing stuff. Board and Brew is a great casual place for friends and family to get some delicious and FULLY packed sandwiches, for a great price. They're inflation proof! We had the Toms Choice and Caesar Salad Wrap - both of which were great! The Orange Board and Brew sauce really adds a nice flavor to both. Service was quick, and they even give you a sample of the beer/seltzer of your choice if you're curious of the variety of libations they have. read more

As they do have food and the plates of food coming out from the kitchen look delicious. I came for draft beer. I'm from Florida and only my second time here and the bartender recognized me from my previous visit. Ice cold draft beer is great! Friendly atmosphere and seems popular with the locals. Reasonable prices was the winner! read more

Customer Service SUCKED! Complete attitude for asking to wipe down a table! Then, when female (who shouldn't be working in customer service) came over to the table, had a crap attitude, did a quick spray and DIDN'T EVEN WIPE THE WHOLE TABLE OFF!!! Don't come here to eat unless you like eating off of sticky, nasty tables.... Or bring your own towel and cleaner and do it yourself! The staff should get a lesson on how to treat their customers!!! I'll take my money elsewhere. Didn't even stay to eat. read more

Love the people love the food, no wait! Fun place. I wish the tables would be cleaner

Pretty good little restaurant in the Santa Ana/Costa Mesa area. We had some Cobb salads which were fabulous. Delivered to our table quickly in a to go container with plastic utensils. They have some micro brew beers, and I'm betting their sandwiches are pretty good from looking at the other patrons. Nice bar area that seemed busy, and friendly service. It's a little sterile looking, very cookie cutter decor. read more

I love the sandos here so much ! I've lived in the area forever but never tried them out. The tuna sandwich is my go to and it is SO filling ! It is fairly quiet inside and not much really going on around lunch time. They have a wide variety of sandwiches and salads to try. The employees are also very nice and patient. We needed a minute to decide and they were happy to answer any of our questions. Don't forget to try their sauce!! We had to ask for extra cause it was so good! read more

Board and brew has to be one of my favorite chain sandwich shops around. They offer a variety of different sandwiches and they always taste fresh and the bread is nice and fluffy. They offer a decent selection of beers, which is also good and they have healthier chip options which I very much appreciate. My work ends up using board and brew to cater quite a lot and it's always delicious and always a hit with us employees. Overall, I'd say this is a great casual lunch or a work lunch place to go to absolutely worth visiting! read more

I was in the area and craving a sub, this place came up and I had never been before, so I gave it a shot. First off, the staff is fine, this review is about the food. Since it was my first time here, I got the Tom's Choice sandwich, assuming it's some kind of signature dish and probably a solid choice. It was bad, it seems like their corporate chef's have not discovered seasoning yet, because the meat just tasted like plain, cooked meat. The ONLY flavor on this sandwich came from the sauce, which was good. I asked for extra as I was packing up my leftovers and let the cook know the sandwich recipe was extremely bland. They said they aren't using salt/pepper to be more "healthy", and pointed me to a pile of disposable salt/pepper packets on the counter. I get if you want to leave out salt/pepper in your recipe, but there are other seasonings. At least ask me if I want salt/pepper on my sandwich when I place the order instead of handing me a pile of cardboard. read more

Chicken club is next level with the orange dressing. The chocolate cookies are a sleeper!

Wonderful service. Employees here are fast and very friendly. Makes the experience even better. I had never tried their food before and had a warm sandwich- the chicken club. Delicious and in a generous portion. The ambiance is good here - clean and with a skater/surfer vibe. read more

Mike, that sandwich was the first and only thing I ate all day, and since my at-home dinner the night prior. The food poisoning was 100% caused my this meal from your establishment. Spare your comments about my hygiene. Your claim that food-borne illnesses take 24 hours for symptoms to kick in is incorrect. And since you seem to be dismissive of this, I may report this to the health department. Edit #2: What's amazing is that someone in a managerial position would attempt to gaslight a patron who had a genuinely unpleasant experience. Calling me a "keyboard warrior" and falsely claiming that I didn't contact your restaurant is inappropriate and unprofessional. Had you checked your records, you would have seen that I called and left a voicemail at 10:17 p.m. on Friday advising you to inspect your product. See my screenshot below of my call log. You can't insult someone, and then expect them to accept your well wishes. Now, from every source I've researched online, in addition to speaking with my mother who has been a culinary manager for a few different corporate fine dining establishments for 38 years, states the same thing ChatGPT summarized. The FDA lists for various organisms typical onset times such as: Staphylococcus aureus: 1-6 hours Salmonella: 6-48 hours While it's possible the orange sauce wasn't the cause, it's far more likely that another ingredient was responsible... perhaps the pastrami. If you intend to continue deflecting and insulting rather than addressing the issue professionally, please don't respond. A responsible manager would view this as an opportunity to verify product safety, not an excuse to belittle a customer who raised a valid concern. read more

I think it's safe to say this is my new favorite sandwich place. Customer service is great, chill vibes and good drinks. Must try: Baja chicken sandwich and Baja beef. Will be trying other locations but this is a nice stop before going into Trader Joe's. read more

The place looks super cool. Like if you're a skater, you'll love the place. There are plenty of seats and many types of sandwiches. Because this is new I look for a familiar sandwich although they have many unique ones. I saw the french dip. There was this melon canned rink called Mela I also tried since it sounded refreshing. The french dip wasn't the best. The bread was good, cheese good, but the meat was really dry. I've had many french dips, its my go to if I see a restaurant offers it. The au jus was decent. But I think if the meat was better this could have improved the sandwich greatly. The Mela drink was grat though. Super refreshing that I got another can before I left. read more

Cool, clean, well lit restaurant. Employees were friendly and service was fast. Had been to the Del Mar location a few times and loved their sandwiches. I went against my instinct and tried their green salad with sweet and sour dressing. It was meh, nothing to write home about. The dressing was underwhelming. I'm t was a basic grilled chicken salad. I should've gotten a sandwich BUT I had to find out my own way. read more

I've stumbled upon this location as I was at the Dollar Tree buying organizational items for Spring. Yahaira and Samanta were so helpful explaining the menu items and beer selection. I've now repeated a second time because the sandwiches are so fresh and delightfully filling. Italian Sub sandwich, Baja Chicken, and the SanDiegan were all top notch and tasty. Their potato salad is light and flavorful. Fort Point Westfalia Amber Ale! Yummy! See y'all soon! It's been FUN! Overall, A+ experience and my go to when I shop in the area! read more

This sandwich shop has the best sandwiches!!! My favorite place ever!!! Don't go anywhere else anymore!!! My favorite sandwich is the Turkcado!!! Try this place out....you can also have a cold brew with your sandwich!!! read more

Board and Brew is my latest favorite sandwich shop. Their sandwiches are delicious and affordable compared to other sandwich shops. I usually order their Veggie Supreme in a french baguette or a wrap. The veggies they use are always fresh and crispy. I like to eat it with a side of their signature sauce. I love that the sandwiches are a nice size so I usually can't finish a full one and have some left over. Parking is never an issue here as there is plenty of parking. Service is very quick, I usually get my order within minutes. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. read more

Ordered a beef sandwich and asked for NO onions and NO jalapeño. I also paid a ridiculous $2 for avocados which were not in my sandwich. There was so much jalapeño and onions that the entire sandwich tasted like it after I removed as much of them as I could so I could not even enjoy one bite of my sandwich because the bread itself tasted like onions and japaneños. My sandwich definitely had more toppings than protein, as you can see in the picture. Paid close to $17 for a sandwich that was missing a topping that I paid for and had toppings that I asked to be removed. So very disappointing and not enjoyable at all. read more

Although the sandwiches aren't something I'd ever crave, they do come in huge portions that's really worth your value. I ordered the Baja Wrap ($9.95) with Maui Onion Chips ($2). I only ate half of my wrap and saved the other half the next day, so yay for getting two meals out of this. The flavor didn't quite stand out to me, although it's good and they really stuffed the wrap. It's more filled with vegetables than meat though, but still a solid wrap when you're hungry and feeling healthy-ish. I also tried the Huckleberry seltzer ($3 during HH and grand opening weekend), which was pretty good too. read more

I've been at multiple board and brew locations and it always hits the spot! My BF and I came here for their opening weekend BOGO deal, surprisingly it wasn't too crowded for a Saturday. We both got the spicy roast beef dip, also got some beer ($3 each for the month of august). The sandwich was delicious, super meaty and cheesy, the best sandwich on the menu in my opinion! Service is fast and food is hearty, definitely my favorite place for a sandwich+beer! read more

Today is the soft opening for this new location just across the street from the Target on Bristol. They are offering $3 beers for the next 30 days through their grand opening a month from now. We walked in at 10:30am, just 1/2 hour after they opened and there was already 4 guests taking advantage of the discounted alcohol prices. That's one way to start a weekend. HA! My favorite item here is the California Delight. It's loaded with meat, sprouts, lettuce, tomato, and cream cheese. I love the addition of sunflower seeds too. Oh and you gotta get their house made sauce. It adds a great flavor! These sandwiches are pretty big, so the price definitely justifies what you get. I will be headed back for their grand opening BOGO deals August 25th-27th, and I think I'll try something new over my usual. read more

Great addition to the neighborhood! Sandwiches were are super high quality and very affordable! Comparable but maybe a tad better than Jersey Mikes at the same price or less! I've gotten the Turkado and it had great ingredients as well super soft french bread! They have a rotating selection of beers on tap you can choose from. I've gotten a table as well as sat at the bar and was able to speak to the owner today at the bar. He gave me the scoop on his rotating taps as well as the history of Board and Brew. Great place with great people. Hope to be back soon! read more

I'm a sucker for all the Board & Brews (even the one in RSM that was like Lord of the Flies on a weekend - way too many kids when I'm trying to drink beer). This one in Santa Ana/ South Coast Metro is a big improvement over the Mexican place that was here before. There's a lot of patio space and floor to ceiling windows on two sides. Food offerings are the same sandwiches and salads as other locations. Some of the beers are at every B&B but all of them rotate the majority of their taps. Another great place for a beer and a sandwich. read more

Board & Brew - Santa Ana - Beef dip sandwich with steaming hot au jus. Delicious! - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Ana, California

If you wished that Subway sold beer, then this is the place for you. But to be honest, Subway sandwiches actually taste better. The inauthentic and sterile "skater" vibe stops and starts at the purposefully haphazardly placed skater stickers and the off the shelf skateboard decks mounted on the wall dividing the bar seating from the tables. The food: My wife and I shared the Baja Wrap and potato salad. The wrap came with what must be their signature sauce: a weird, orange colored, sweet sauce that doesn't really taste like anything but weirdly tastes like everything and certainly didn't belong on what we ordered. Oddly, there was a secret menu that looked far more appetizing than what we had to choose from on the standard menu. The chicken was well seasoned, but nothing else was. It seems as though the flavor is expected to be derived from the"secret sauce" instead of the item itself. We were disappointed, and hope for improvements. It's a great location, and very clean. While the wrap was loaded with jalapeños that gave it heat, the bland, dry chicken and veggies that were although fresh--just existed to take up space in the wrap. The potato salad was decent. The servers were very attentive and were quick to refill our drinks. We live in Santa Ana and want to support local business, and hope this review might serve as constructive critique. read more

Sometimes you're just in the mood for a classic sandwich, something that maybe you had packed in your lunch box. There's something nostalgic about it and I'm all for it. I've tried the beef dip, the turkado, the Italian sub and the California delight. The beef dip is so flavorful and the meat is nice and juicy! If you're still going to places like subway when you have a board and brew near you then you're seriously missing out. read more

Great service! The food was amazing, there was an option where you could take stuff out that you didn't want on the sandwich, which was really good for me and my friend! read more
