I love coming to Bruxie! I have been going to the Orange location for years and I came to the Brea location to meet a friend for lunch. I am trying to eat healthier, so I tried their grilled chicken and mushroom salad. It's a generous portion of chicken, mushrooms, in a large leafy salad of romaine and arugula. The dressing was a lemon vinaigrette, which was very nice. Service is consistent and friendly. This is a cool spot, with an indoor / outdoor patio area in the heart of Downtown Brea. Can't wait for my next visit! read more

Love Bruxie. Wish it were closer. I dig their banana nutella waffle dessert and their chicken tenders. read more

I loved the kickin' nashville hot chicken sandwich I ordered! It was perfectly prepared with a crispy waffle on the outside and moderately spicy fried chicken patty on the inside! Excited to check out their sides the next time I'm in the area! read more

Food is amazing, this has been my go to spot for a long time. I use to have to drive an hour for this, I'm glad I moved a little bit closer now, chicken and waffle sandwiches, or the seasonal fruit waffles are fire. read more

Food was good and everything but i got bad food poisoning!!! On sunday i came !! Day later my cousin and I woke up super sick.

This is a great place to go, especially if you like Waffles! It has a great location and ample outdoor seating (which for our cycling group that recently stopped there), was ideal. The service was awesome and will continue to dine there! Thanks BRUXIE!! read more

I haven't been here in years, but got the classic Fried Chicken & Waffle Sandwich. It was better than I remember! The generously sized chicken was fresh and crispy. The best part of the sandwich was chili honey! The added sweetness made the whole meal SO GOOD. I also tried the nutella and banana waffle which was pretty good. One of the best places to get chicken and waffles! read more

After a hungry day of practice early in the morning, Bruxie was one of the few places to be open at 10AM where I could try to find some nice savory food. As per my own rule of thumb, if everything looks good (and everything looked really tasty on the menu), I go and try what they call to be their own (things like the original, food with their name on it, etc.). Their original chicken sandwich: A solid 9/10. The skin was nicely seasoned and flavorful, packing a nice crunch going through, while the inside was juicy and tender, just how I love my sandwiches. What made it taste even better was their chili mayo that comes with it! It provided such a nice sweet contrast to the saltiness of the meat while also not being too overbearing. The cole slaw I would say was basically just added in for visual appeal and color. It did not taste like anything special at all but you are coming in for chicken and not cole slaw so take that as you will. Overall, would definitely come again and try some of their other options as their chicken is just super tasty. read more

Been going pretty much every other weekend since its consistently good chicken. Prices have gone up since last year but started using gift cards from Costco whenever I can. Ever since trying the El Jefe sandwich it's become a favorite must get. At around $9.50 it's not cheap but worth it for the unbeatable taste. Currently the best chicken sandwich in my book. Been 2 weekends since last visit and planning on going tomorrow. Yummy. Only problem is we get one Ell Jefe and one chicken and waffle for the kid. So end up splitting El Jefe with wife since have to eat the half of chicken n waffle. I want my own full El Jefe!!! read more

Bruxie - El Jefe. Just get it. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

Sooo expensive and for a tiny little sandwich and barely any fries. The sandwich itself was soaking wet, the bread was so soggy.

First time here with my kids. My son has a few food allergies and this place was able to accommodate his food needs and was so nice about it. My son loved it and we will be back read more

It was great to have a simple brunch. I like it because it's always delicious on every visit. I ate it on May 30th. read more

Environment It is quite nice fresco out patio place with the original restaurant setting. Thus, you completely don't need to worried about the out door Dinning environment. Food and Taste The waffle is crispy and the spicy chicken was a little bit spicier than I expected but I think I can handle one! Definitely, highly recommend to spicy lover. Drinks I noticed that most people ordered Pink lemonade. I ordered an iced tea( half sweet and half non sweet). It taste like the black tea in the breakfast store in Taiwan. Love it! Tips: If you will stay at the place, please remember pay the tip. Because I was plan to take out, however after reading the sign closely, I realized I could stay and dine in at the patio. Thus, I did not pay enough tip so that the clerk did not give me my drinks. :( ( sign... and Roll my eyes) Okay fine. So friendly reminds: pay enough tips ... read more

If this review was just for the food it would be 5 stars. If this review was just for the service it would be 1 star. But I love Bruxie and have been going for years since they had the location in Orange. So I can't go below 4 stars. After more than a year I finally went with the family to the Brea location. I just went there for lunch. I know it's memorial weekend and it's busy but they need to be more efficient. I was 5th in line when I walked up. It' took 20 minutes for me to order and another 20 to get my food. The concern I have is the inefficiency in giving drinks and taking the order. Basically there was none. A couple behind me left after 15 minutes because there was barely any movement. The young gentlemen in front of me only wanted to a sandiwch and a drink. I felt for the kid bc he kept repeating himself and the worker just ignored what he kept saying. So he had to repeat it 3x. She kept saying sorry. On a side note I sat next to him and he was upset bc they messed up his order. He didn't want to deal with it so he just ate it. Our food was better than I remember. Got the OG, tenders and the banana Nutella waffle. The Carolina bbq sauce had a great bite that you felt at the back of your throat and the honey mustard was solid. But I also got a watered down coke. I'll be back but next time I'll just order online so I don't have to deal with the workers at the register. read more

So decided to stop by Bruxie's in Brea for lunch and it was a good call! First of all, the cashier was super friendly. I decided to order the Chicken&Waffles combo since I was pretty hungry and can definitely finish a big cheat meal. They had a nice outdoor seating area in the restaurant and a huge communal tent set-up also for outdoor dining. We sat in the tent area for about 10 minutes before they called my order and I was pleasantly surprised about the portion. I felt like they gave me more food than other Bruxie locactions I have been to. They also give you these boxes that you can easily utilize for outdoor dining. Both the chicken and the waffles were super fresh! I did barely finish my food and was very satisfied. Will definitely be back for more Chicken&Waffles and highly recommend! read more

Bruxie - Chicken&Waffle Combo - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

Found my way to the little City of Brea. Was shopping in the center with my wife and dog (don't judge). We got a bit hungry and took a stroll down to the food area. This spot was perfect. I could sit outside with my dog and enjoy a good lunch. The staff were very friendly and courteous. Needed some extra dipping sauce for my strips and brought them to me. Good food. Highly recommend. Not cheap but not pricey. You won't regret it read more

Finally got here. Great food & service. Location in Chino, Ca & Vegas are closed, so this was our next stop. We were craving waffles (I can make, but prefer to go 2 the rest). Good choice. The pastrami sandwich & the mushroom sandwich was Delish! Luuuuved the waffles & the personal jar of syrup....TOO CUTE. With the city re-opening, everyone please continue 2 b diligent & SAFE! BRUXIE, u ROCK! read more

I love this place. I've been coming here for the last decade or so. I like how they did renovations and spruced up the place. They have savory and sweet options. Anything with crispy yet fluffy waffles and delicious toppings is good in my book. This time I had the original which is their most famous waffle sandwich. Would recommend that. The waffles were cooked to perfection. They have hot sauces at the tables and also you can ask for more syrup and for ranch sauce. My friend had the waffle and chicken and she said that it was good. A tip, their Arnold Palmer is basically the strawberry lemonade and the ice tea- you need to mix those yourself, not sure if it's worth it bc it didn't taste like a typical Palmer and you could have just asked for a regular drink and mixed those yourself and paid less lol. There is free parking in the surrounding structures. The area looks really cute and it would be a nice date place where you can walk around and look around and check out other places as well. read more

THE BEST place to get waffle chickens!! I live 40 miles away, but got a $50 gift card as a gift. We got 4 chicken tenders & fries, the original fried chicken & waffle sandwich, El Jefe, The Crispy, & Waffle Fries! OMG! Their waffle sandwiches are soooo soooo sooo goooood!!! Although it has been 40-60 minutes since we picked up the food, but the waffle was still crunchy and crispy! Their waffle chicken sandwiches were so good, I overstuffed myself with half of the original, the crispy, and the el jefe sandwiches. All of them are extremely delicious! Their El Jefe is so juicy and has a lot of flavor! -- we ate all the sandwiches before we can take a pic of them. Even though we live far away, but I'm definitely going there again to get more chicken waffle sandwiches. read more

Bruxie - Original Seasoned Chicken Tenders - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

Bruxie is my ideal waffle sandwich place because: 1. It's not as greasy or heavy as some of the old-time authentic chicken and waffles locations(which my sensitive stomach is grateful for). 2. The waffle and chicken are always perfectly crispy on the outside with completely cooked, but still moist interiors. 3. THE POTATOES - The fries and tater tots are SO underrated! Talk about the perfectly salted, crunchy crust ratio to potato-y filling!! 4. There are so many more "fresh" options other than fried chicken and waffles (a favorite of mine is the green eggs and ham or the turkey club). I actually don't like their sweet waffles because for some reason, I always choke on the powdered sugar (It doesn't happen to me with powdered sugar donuts, cookies, etc) - not sure if it's just me though! Their lemonades and sodas are also too sweet for me, so much so that I'd rather get a refresher from Starbucks across the street because the refreshers are a lot less sweet in comparison. Definitely order at least from the parking lot so you don't have to take too much time outside! read more

Waffles are something I enjoy overall, and there are plenty of waffles to choose from here! I've been to this location multiples times over the years and had their breakfast, lunch/dinner, and dessert waffles. Generally, the waffles here are pretty good although I haven't been as impressed as some of the other reviewers. Part of it is because - on different visits - I have gotten waffles that were slightly soggy, not very warm, or not the crispy on the outside/fluffy on the inside waffles that others have mentioned. On my most recent visit, I ordered the roasted turkey avocado and spiced tots. Their roasted turkey avocado waffle was pretty good, although when I got the order, the waffles weren't very hot nor were they crispy on the outside. The spiced tots had a kick to them and were great. read more

I've been coming to Bruxie for a while and never had an issue with them. In my opinion I believe their tenders are better than raising canes since it actually has seasoning to it and adds flavor. The people working there are always nice and have never been rude , I'm actually friends with Robert ( gentleman). But tonight my partner and I have been waiting for our food for 30 minutes and finally had enough and asked how much longer. It seems that they have forgotten about the food and got dessert on the house , a gift card , and our card got refunded. Thank you Bruxie for being extremely generous tonight! read more

We ordered the Loaded Waffle Fries and Green Eggs and Ham. Because my friend is vegetarian and I, a meat lover, we asked for the meat on the side and so we appreciated that they made this accommodation for us. Everything was very flavorful and crisp. Was in the mood for something greasy and filling and this hit the spot. They have outdoor patio seating which made me feel safer to eat especially during these times. This promenade is generally pretty packed on the weekends so I would be a bit more cautious. Overall, I definitely recommend checking this place out because tbh you can't really go wrong with any of the menu items here. read more

I called in to order Irish nachos for my son and some fried pickles for me. Order placed, now let's find a parking spot. It was the weekend and parking was tough to find. Ok, I'm in. Found a nice close spot. When we went inside to the order pickup window we were told that there was a problem with our order. The fried pickles weren't available. They explained that the fried pickle was on their old menu and wasn't offered any more. Ok, just give me some waffle fries instead. She said that she would throw in the waffle fries for free for the inconvenience. Wow, that was nice of her!! We received our order to go, and got into the car. My son opened his Irish Nachos and as he ate them said, eh - they were ok. He opened my order of waffle fries and found that they were fried pickles. I was so damn confused, but I ate them and they were hot, fresh, and delicious!! The breading was thick and crusty, and the pickles were hot. I'm still not sure what happened, but I'm not complaining. On the other hand, the Irish nachos were a little disappointing. The fries didn't seem to be too fresh, there wasn't enough cheese or bacon on it. After he had eaten 1/3 of them he found he was out of toppings. I'm sure that if we hadn't left the place and if we had brought it to their attention they would have taken care of the problem. As a wise man once said, "they F@&k you at the drive through!" read more

Bruxie - THE ORIGINAL - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

I use to come to this place a lot because it was new and trending. I never heard of a waffle sandwich before. It was new to me. It was amazing because chicken and waffles are my favorite. Let's talk about the food here. The chicken is well seasoned and crispy and goes well with the waffle that is not sweet. The coleslaw that comes with this inside is perfect because it is chopped up in tiny bit and not hard at all. The maple syrup that comes with this is great because it is not too sweet. This is the first place I ever had waffle fries and then it was chick fil a. Overall I highly recommend this place in downtown brea area for a quick bit. read more

We've loved Bruxie since it opened on Birch but it's just nose dived since it reopened. Literally every online order we've placed has been wrong or missing items. The employees have said the are unfamiliar with their computer systems. We've waited 40 minutes for orders that used to take 10 minutes. Missing the old employees that knew what they were doing. read more

Kinda not good. Chicken was good as usual. 4 people over $85.00 bill. Gave us 4 sauces we didn't ask for and no Cole slaw or honey sauce on 2 sandwiches. Chicken good...service bad. read more

My first time to Bruxie's for breakfast and I had an excellent experience. The supervisor Jayden was so helpful with the menu selections and took time to explain all the different items on the menu. Once we started eating she checked on us numerous times and asked if we needed anything else. It is so refreshing to see people who care about customer service and provide such a wonderful experience for their guests. I will definitely be coming back. The chicken waffles was so airy and crispy. Absolute must have!! read more

This place is really clean and family friendly. I went during a Saturday and it was a great experience sitting in the patio area. The Mac n Cheese was delicious, however the main course had way too much going on. I purchased the "holy chicken sandwich" alongside mac n cheese and criss cut fries. For my chicken sandwich, I didn't feel like the flavors of the egg yolk, syrup, and bacon really mixed well together. It was an explosion of flavor in my mouth (in a bad way). read more

ORDER: Holy Chicken Waffle Sandwich (no mayo, over hard egg instead of sunny side) The Original Chicken Sandwich with a side of Buffalo Sauce Crème Brulee & Strawberries Sweet Waffle Sandwich Nutella and Banana Waffle Sandwich Above is my go-to order. This is my favorite spot to get a quick bite. It's located right next to the theaters too, which make this the perfect place post-movie. They have indoor and outdoor seating, it's moderately priced, and the food is good. Bruxie has a trendy atmosphere. You really need to eat in-person. By the time you get your order through those food delivery apps, the waffles will be soggy (unless you've got an air fryer). It's just more convenient to eat on-site. read more

Tried the waffle with 2 pieces of chicken this time. I liked this better than the sandwiches which are pretty good. Lots of combinations with eggs, bacon etc. I wanted to try just the chicken and waffle. Chicken - Perfect crunch, not too hard or soft and the breading was good and tasted great with the syrup. Waffle - Light, and tasty. Service wasn't too good as mine came out way before my wife's. The wait was due to one of the chefs getting a coffee across the street at Starbucks! Wait, the coffee at Bruxie isn't good enough for him? Overall, certainly a place to try with lots if shops and movies in the DT Brea area. read more

Bruxie - 2 piece chicken and waffle - Yummy! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

I really like this place. Food is consistently good .Their specialty is waffle sandwiches. The waffles are thin and crisp. They offer a variety of combinations to choose from. I always get the green eggs and ham waffle sandwich. The ( green) is pesto sauce. This location is open air seating which means they technically don't have closed indoors. But, I noticed they use the mist spray for customers sitting outside in hot days. *Btw, I had a couple of gift cards that I got from Costco that I had planned to use this visit. I was told they don't accept them anymore because a different company bought out the store .The manager was so kind and just converted my gift card to an electronic gift card on her own accord. I guess she could tell I was a bit distressed that I wouldn't be able to use my cards. She went ahead and did this kind gesture. I really appreciated this. Kudos to outstanding customer service here! read more
