    This place is just as good now as it was back in the 90s when I was a kid, I grew up up in Brea lived right down the street by the Brea post office and my dad would always take me here when I was young we would get burgers and onion rings and French fries. I came out to the OC to go to Disneyland and decided to stop by here on the way back home on Thursday January 8th,2026 around 11:30am, I came with a friend, I ordered a turkey burger and onion rings, the staff was super friendly, the place is immaculate! Very clean as soon as someone finished eating they were cleaning the table. I'm so happy I got to come to a place that meant so much to me as a kid and eat and have the same experience I did back then, can't wait to come again next time I'm in town, thank you Brea's best for great food and amazing service!

    I had a good experience at Brea's Best Burgers. I ordered the Cheeseburger ($6.89) and Sausage Breakfast Burrito ($9.99). The portions are very big, and its ingredients felt clean & fresh. I arrived at Brea's Best Burgers on Friday (around 11:13AM). Parking is convenient and easy. Staff is professional and friendly. Staff spoke Spanish and English. Staff worked hard and quickly. I ordered for "dine-in." I received a small metal number & found a seat, and staff brought the food to the table. I waited only four minutes. So fast! As mentioned, I ordered the Cheeseburger ($6.89) and Sausage Breakfast Burrito ($9.99). The Sausage Breakfast Burrito was the more memorable option. That heavy, hot, & freshly prepared breakfast burrito had fluffy potatoes (similar to textured mashed potatoes), generous cheese, eggs, and savory sausage slices. Its ingredients tasted very fresh, and this hefty breakfast burrito was extremely satisfying. The Cheeseburger was also a solid option. It arrived somewhat lukewarm, but I appreciated the freshness of its ingredients. The Cheeseburger had a toasty, buttered bun; its meat patty carried a light char; and the vegetables were crisp and fresh. Unfortunately, the meat's patty was somewhat bland and under-seasoned. Most of the flavor derived from the fresh vegetables and thinly spread thousand island sauce. Concerning ambiance, Brea's Best Burgers is cozy and attractive. The art mural is vibrant and well-maintained. The furniture is bright, colorful, and clean. The tables are sleek and shiny. However, although its floors were relatively clean, it would have benefited from several more sweeps. Also, I disliked how their music had numerous commercials/advertisements; it felt like radio. In addition, this location can get echoey, so customer chatter might make it somewhat difficult to converse. Overall, I had an enjoyable experience at Brea's Best Burgers. The food is huge, affordable, & fresh. If nearby, you're very fortunate to have such a tasty option. 4.7 out of 5

    Raw chicken
    Marisol E.

    Really disappointed with the quality of the food. I went in a bit before closing time although I appreciate them taking my order I asked before 8:40pm. They close at 9:00pm.. They told me they only had orders to go. After a long work day I honestly didn't want to cook and came in for a bbq chicken sandwich combo. When biting into my sandwich the chicken was raw in the middle please see my picture and fries were just stale. I called at 8:58pm to let them know. Nobody answered anymore. Which technically they should be open until 9pm. Now I don't have a meal and nothing can be done about it! I wish this wouldn't happen to anyone that just because the workers are in a rush to go home this happens! We all work but please be courteous of your customers.

    I hadn't been back here in a while but today I really wanted a charbroiled burger and this place hit the spot. The burger I ordered was massive for the price, and very good. Not greasy at all, which is what I was looking for. I also ordered a side of large fries to share, which was enough for 3 people. Overall the quality was good and exactly what I wanted today. I did an online order and picked up. My order was ready promptly and service was good. This place has a diner feel, with old Brea vibes, conveniently located off Brea blvd, with plenty of parking.

    Patty Melt with Onion Rings
    Joey A.

    What a cool little diner! Super clean and menu is impressive (breakfast served all day!) This is the kind of "mom and pop" burger place that gives you all your basics, and still served to perfection. This is definitely that place that gives you about 5 lbs. of onion rings on one order! lol I'm not complaining! Any burger place can grill a burger pretty well, but I always test a place based on their patty melt and boy oh boy it was a 10/10! Grilled onions were juicy, rye bread toasted and crispy, burger fresh and full of flavor. Simply put, wow. Come by Brea's burgers if you are close by, take a small walk down memory lane and you will be back, I know I will! You will definitely be greeted with a smile and the service is super fast and friendly.

    pattymelt on their menu with carmelized onion.

    Dumpy patio, was fun to take the dogs here. Front Employees seemed nice but then I had an exchange with the cook that wad beyond senseless. Ordered a burger, a pattymelt fries, a puppy patty for the dogs and a drink. Everything was decent, we come here for convience not a incredible dining experience. Pattymelt was given to us with no carmelized onion. Took it back to the chef and he acted like I was an idiot for not asking for it with onion. Rude, wasted my time and no longer convenient which is this places bread and butter because the food isn't great. Very disapointing, chef had us waiting for onion while our food got cold and then didnt even make the pattymelt, just gave us a tray with partially cooked onion. their menu has by default carmelized onion.

    Brea's Best Burgers is one of the staples of the downtown Brea area. Any time you drive by here, you can't miss the big yellow and brown sign on the corner which has been there for ages. The inside has a classic diner feel with a black and white tiled floor, red and white booths, and a great classic cars mural along the back wall. There are also some benches out front if you would like to get some fresh air while you eat. I have only ever eaten burgers here but their menu is pretty extensive and includes burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, salads, Mexican favorites, and breakfast. When you order and dine-in, they will give you a number and bring your food to your table when it is ready. The cashier was friendly as she took my order and when she delivered it. I decided to order the avocado bacon cheeseburger. I thought to myself "wow that looks good" when it arrived. The patty actually looked a little thin, but I took my first bite and it had an excellent char-broiled flavor. The strips of bacon had a nice thickness and were good and meaty. There was also a good amount of avocado. It was a solid burger and pretty filling on its own since I didn't order a side to go with it. I'll definitely be back.

    In all my years that I've ive been in the Brea area, I have passed by, but never tried this place. I now have the pleasure of saying this place is great. On a whim, I ordered through their site, and had the pickup order ready within 10 minutes. The store is clean, appearing to be recently renovated in the past 5 years, with an old school diner feel. The food was excellent for the standards of a burger joint. I ordered the chili cheese fries, and the fam got the variety of burgers. Everything was cooked perfectly with fresh ingredients. I don't need to over explain, but there is no lie here. These guys sell the best burger in Brea!

    Dry and tasteless cheeseburger
    Ms N.

    I've been coming here for years, and it's disappointing to see how much the food quality has declined. The cheeseburger used to be my go-to order, but the last few times I've visited, it has been so bad! The burger was dry, bland, and lacked the flavor that made it stand out in the past. The customer service has also gone downhill. The staff often seem unfriendly and unpleasant to deal with, which only adds to the disappointing experience. It's sad to see a place that was once a favorite lose its focus on both food quality and customer service. I hope management takes customer feedback seriously and makes the necessary improvements to restore the quality and service that kept customers coming back for years.

    Cheeseburger

    Very good burger spot! It was a cool place to sit and eat a good burger. Service is quick as the employees are quick to serve and our food came pretty quick. I ordered the cheese burger with a fries and a drink and my boyfriend tried the chili cheeseburger with the fries. The burgers were $7 so adding in the combo, it was about $12 per meal. I believe total we spent was $27. Wasn't bad for the price especially how we are getting good quality food. The patties are so mpist and the food tasted so fresh! The fries were also very good. They were hot and crispy! Had a good crunch to it too! The only critic we had is that it was advertised as a 50s diner but it didn't feel like it. But I appreciate the effort! Will definitely be back to try their other burgers!

    Double Cheeseburger
    Sebastian C.

    The last time I had Brea's Best Burgers was well over 15 years ago when I was still in high school. I've been meaning to try this joint again more recently and I'm a little upset that I haven't earlier. I've been here twice within the last few weeks and I plan on coming more often. Here's what I've tried: **Double Cheeseburger: I love, love, LOVE their burgers. It's really love that it's not overly salty like your typical fast food chains. Some may argue that it's bland but I believe they are perfect! All the ingredients are fresh and meats are cooked to perfection. There's the most perfect ratio of spread included on the buns. (5/5) **Sweet Potato Fries: They have the perfect amount of sweetness and salty flavor profiles. Fries are extremely thick and so delicious. (5/5) *Strawberry Shake: Quite expensive at around $7 if you ask me but it's delicious! Sure, it's a simple strawberry shake, but it's super thick and creamy! (5/5) Amazing! Brea's Best Burgers has easily made my list of favorite establishments in Orange County! I hope to become a regular here and try more of their offerings. I've ordered through the phone once and was quoted ten minutes to which they delivered perfectly. I ordered inside for takeout earlier today during a busy hour and my food was ready within 5 minutes! I 100% recommend Brea's Best if you're looking for something delicious and affordable!

Parking in the plaza is pretty tight, so I'd recommend coming earlier for a better spot or parking across at the plaza with Snail's Pace and walking over. Weekdays are great, but expect it to be very crowded on weekends.

It was not wiped down, we saw them pick up the dishes and never wipe down the table; in fact the check was still on the table. We are waiting and waiting for someone to come take our order and we have to flag someone down after waiting 15 minutes. The waitress comes over with an attitude and takes our order with the crappiest mood. She leaves and a while later someone else brings our food but no one ever brought our drinks. I had ordered a tea and remind the waitress. She leaves and comes back with the nastiest dirtiest, clearly used cup. I complain to her I want a clean cup and she gets visibly bothered and returns with a broken cup. Everything was clearly done on purpose. What a terrible unprofessional waitress. We never understood why the heck she had such hostility towards us. Management needs to do a better job in training their employees in being professional. We will not be returning.

Overall, everything lacked flavor, although I will say the red salsa served with the chips was delicious. My friend ordered the avocado toast, but it was basically just a slice of bread with sliced avocado--no seasoning, condiments, or anything to make it stand out. The small garden salad was equally underwhelming, consisting of only romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes with no dressing or even a drizzle of olive oil. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, but they were more like open-faced boiled eggs since the yolks were completely hard instead of runny. The café de olla had a nice flavor, but it was much sweeter than expected. I think it would be better if they served it unsweetened (or lightly sweetened) and let customers adjust the sugar to their own taste. I really wanted to enjoy this place because the ambiance is so charming, but the food just didn't live up to the experience.

The cafe is very cute and offers a wide selection of food. I could tell that it is a local favorite because so many people came in and were known by name. Would recommend and go again.

It's a very nondescript location, you could drive by it 10 times before you noticed it, but once you walk in, it has a very warm homey feel to it. I'm always greeted with a smile and a hello and they seem to have quite a few regulars, because they call them by name when they see these customers walk in. Service - The staff (who I am assuming are the owners) are super friendly, again, greet everyone, and always open to making suggestions. If a place has breakfast burritos, I'm always down for that...so that's what I went with the first time, and every time after. When I asked about their Bfast burritos, the owner suggested that I get it with a spinach tortilla, a totally new option to me, but boy was I happy with it. I have gotten it every time since then. Parking - lots of parking available...it's very strip-mall-ish, but doesn't seem to be too busy. If this place was much closer to home, I'd come way more often than every other week or so! Yum Yum Yum!

    The whole place is a vibe all on its own! I'm a huge breakfast burrito connoisseur, so I had to try…read morea couple and they did not disappoint! The fried chicken burrito sounded like it might be heavy, but it was absolutely delicious and surprisingly not heavy at all. The ribeye burrito was amazing too! And the orange juice is freshly squeezed, which is always a huge plus. Michael was incredible, so friendly and professional. We had a little mix up during our visit, and he handled it so respectfully and graciously that we were genuinely impressed. We will absolutely be coming back. I just found my new breakfast spot!

    Bottom Line Up Front: Eggbred is breakfast food for Gen Z --…read moreand that's not a dig by any means. Let me eggplain... The Background: Eggbred is a fast-food establishment with fast-casual aspirations. You pay at the counter but the meals are handcrafted, so there's a wait similar to a sit-down restaurant. Plus, the prices are higher than a Mickey D's -- $9.79 to $13.99 for sandwiches and $9.99 to $17.99 for burritos, for example. The Food: I ordered the Ribeye California Burrito and it was delicious. The beef was tender and moist, the avocado was fresh, and the cilantro crema was tasty. The lemonade was very meh, unfortunately. The Setting: Located in a smallish strip mall on Harbor Boulevard, it has limited free parking in the front. Not a problem on a weekday mid morning, but I imagine it would be quite difficult to find parking at peak times. Inside, it had a cool, modern aesthetic, but it was small, not ideal for mid to large-size groups. Customer Service: My cashier was friendly and quite knowledgeable, providing an eggcellent recommendation (the Ribeye California Burrito). However, the cook staff took awhile making the food (it took about 20 minutes for my order to come out). The Pros and Cons: So, is the food worth the hype and premium prices? Yes and no. It's essentially a fast-food restaurant charging sit-down prices with longish wait times. Your satisfaction level will depend largely on your expectations: if you're thinking it's fast food, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the care they put into the food and freshness of the ingredients. You'll be disappointed if you're expecting a more premium experience to match the premium prices. The Conclusion: I would need to return to try the other dishes on the menu to give a definitive answer, but based on my first experience I didn't feel like I got enough value for the price I paid and the wait I endured. While I would be open to trying their other dishes, I would not return unless I was in the area by chance.
