Do you want to have a cluckity cluck cluck day, friend? Well, come on over to a chicken and waffle place that basically is the hipster version of the older mom and pop shops that exist in the Bible Belt. Used to go to the one near Chapman U, but this one is my favorite mostly cause of the location and ample seating. I usually get the green eggs and ham, but I'll crave their OG chicken and waffle sandwiches. Krissxrosscut fries are aite. Service is basically like a toned down Chick-fil-A... super respectful but not on that creepy vibe. Only con would be the "colas". It's a bit too boring and healthy tasting. I need my cole Good food, good service, 5 stars. read more

One of my favorite places to frequent when in Downtown Brea! Amazing sandwiches and bomb salads. I love using the online ordering system and never have to wait read more

Bruxie - El Jefe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

This place is BOMB. My hubby and I usually get the Original Fried Chicken & Waffle sandwich. The waffle has a perfect texture of being crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the fried chicken is basted in a spicy Nashville sauce and nestled in Swiss cheese. We also tried their breakfast sandwiches (the Bacon, Cheddar, & Egg and the Prosciutto, Swiss Cheese, Egg, & Arugula). Both delicious. The only complaint my husband had was that one sandwich wasn't enough! (he ended up getting a 2nd one) Try their Arnold Palmer drink too; very refreshing. Bruxie's never disappoints! read more

The chicken and waffles was amazing, chicken is not dry and is crispy, waffles have a nice lightly fried texture and crunch to it. However I had to wait 20 mins and asked 2 staff members for my food before it came. Amazing food, but some of the workers are incompetent read more

I finally had a chance to try out the new Bruxie location! This one's located at the heart of old town Brea next to the Edward's. First impressions... DANG that's one huge sign and YAY they actually have alot of the seating at this location!! Having regular patron at the original Orange location I was excited to see how this one faired against the OG. Sadly i have to sad this location isn't quite as good for some reason. First the famous waffle fries just didn't seem as fresh. Yes they were crunchy as usual, but not the same type of crunch... this almost reminded me of those Burger King fries instead. :( They also don't have as many specials as the Orange location. They seem to only have one special a day, pulled pork for the rest of the month it seems. But hey they do have a larger selection of drinks, including some interesting grape soda. We'll definitely be back again to try out our usual favorites to do more comparisons... read more

Since I'm on a chicken sandwich kick, this was my first time ordering a non-waffle Bruxie chicken sandwich and went for the buns! Lol I tried El Jefe this time. The sandwich comes as Fried Chicken, Carnita-Spice Rub, Cabbage-Jalapeño Slaw, Chipotle Mayo, Pickled Red Onions and I added chili honey to my order. I was surprisingly pleased at the quality and taste of this sandwich! The fried chicken was flavorful and the ingredients were well balanced and did not over power one another. Spicy and sweet! (Side note: I love the chicken sandwiches from Sweetbird @ Anaheim Packing House, and I thought this sandwich was pretty comparable to theirs.) They also have this combo option to pick 2 additional items to make it a meal, and I chose spiced tater tots and a chocolate peanut butter shake. SO good!!! The shake was small, but I couldn't finish it anyway because it was very rich in flavor. Overall, I thought that the sandwich with the tots and the shake, was the perfect amount yo satisfy any hungry person. read more

Bruxie - EL JEFE Fried Chicken, Carnita-Spice Rub, Cabbage-Jalapeño Slaw, Chipotle Mayo, Pickled Red Onions With a side of chili honey - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

If you're feelin' some warm waffle sandwiches, then this is place is the perfect quick & easy place to go! It's located in heart of downtown brea, and they have an outdoor seating area with long tables which are great for groups, as well as some small booths. Sometimes you may get an unlucky table with some sticky syrup, from the previous person who ate there, but I didn't mind wiping it off myself. I've only gone here during the week, so it's never crowded and the service is really fast. All the food here is extremely filling and satisfying! They are known for their green eggs & ham and original fried chicken waffle sandwich. But my go to order is their chicken pesto sandwich!! read more

I had really high hopes for this place back when I visited. My husband had the original chicken and waffle with a coke, while I had the albacore tuna melt (back when it was still on the menu) and strawberry shake. At the end of our meal, we shared a strawberry dessert waffle. This was my first time having any type of waffle sandwich but I did not feel it was worth the hype. The service was good, the ingredients were fresh, but it just didn't tantalize my taste buds like I was expecting. My taste buds felt the waffle tasted like an Eggo and the ingredients were the same as any other place I would have had a fried chicken patty and tuna melt. The difference is the price is more hefty here and the portions are smaller. Maybe I am just not into having waffles as my sandwich bread. read more

Substitute buns and slices of bread with waffles and you got yourself a Bruxie sandwich. Came here with a few of my foodie friends to find out what the hype is all about Bruxie. Concept, basic, but genius for marketing. LA's all about reinventing simple daily meals in combination of gourmet. Sure enough, the waffle-wich is a bit overpriced for what is it. So each of us ordered something different so we can all try it. Fried Chicken n Waffles - Probably the best out of the bunch we ordered. Fried sliced chicken breast glazed in honey complimented with lightly covered cole slaw. Chicken was cooked well, tender white meat. Prosciutto and Gruyere Waffle - Eh, I didn't like it much. The prosciutto was a but salty for me. Moving alone... Mushroom w/ goat cheese and Arugula Waffle - Great for vegetarians. I'm not a huge fan of goat cheese, but the sauteed mush, mixed with arugula, made it a nice combination. Smoked salmon w/ cream cheese Waffle- nothing wrong with these ingredient, but I'd rather have it with a bagel. Salmon has such a strong taste and texture that I think you need something hardier to complete a bite. Overall, fun to eat, but as a snack. Enjoy. read more

Bruxie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

I am definitely a fan! I've been there about 4-5 times and it's become my preferred place to go before/after going to the movies in Downtown Brea. Of what I've ordered in the past: Buttermilk Fried Chicken & Waffle- I think my least favorite so far. It was the first time I ordered anything at Bruxie's and what was recommended to me. It was good the first bite- I could taste a bit of that honey but it became too subtle- and after the entire thing was tasteless. Irish Nachos- my favorite savory waffle- essentially waffle fries with a homemade cheese sauce, sour cream and bacon. YUM, the best. Seasoned Creme Brulee- You wouldn't think that the two (creme brulee & waffles) would fit together but it's actually really not bad! The waffles add another level of crunch, and you still get that crisp of that burnt layer of the creme brulee. They also add some fruits and berries. Lemon Cream and Berries- My favorite dessert! I love the tartness & slight sourness against creaminess, the sweetness of the berries and the crunch of the waffle. Strawberry Cheesecake- seasonal and awesome- pretty much a bit of cheesecake, strawberries and the waffle. Frozen Custard- also yum! Rich and smooth, although if you take a bite of your lemon cream and berries waffle dessert in between spoonfuls of frozen custard, you will lose the sweetness of the custard. :C Pure Cane Sugar- a little overly sweet, but I liked my Root Beer. My friend got the seasonal Black Cherry but didn't like it- I tried it and it pretty much tasted like medicine. read more

Yum! I've been in love with the idea of a waffle sandwich, but I've been places, and they haven't done it right! For the most part, I've had disappointing sandwiches which weren't crispy enough on the outside, or savory enough. Bruxie is what I've been looking for. I love how the waffle is nice and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and light in flavor which allows whatever is inside to stand out. I got the turkey club. The applewood bacon is amazingly flavorful, and delicious (especially on the Irish Nacho fries). The pesto, avocado, and nice crisp lettuce helped the sandwich taste fresh. The waffle fries are good. I've had soggy waffle fries before, but these are crispy. The sauce goes great with the applewood bacon. My bf got the fried chicken and waffle. It was okay. I didn't like it as much as the turkey club. We also got a premium chocolate peanut butter shake. It didn't disappoint. It was thick, and creamy. Overall I liked the choices on the menu. Everything sounded delicious. I liked the quality of the waffle. Everyone who was working was friendly, and prompt, even though it was a busy day. I would return. I just wish they had a location closer to my house! Pro tip: the parking structure to the movie theatre is free, and it's a close walk away! read more

Preface: To be honest, I disike Roscoe's (I know, blasphemous). I understand that soul food is supposed to comfort you, but the chicken & waffles at Roscoe's are honestly just too greasy for me. The best chicken & waffles I have had yet were at 24diner in Austin, TX. Crispy, freshly fried chicken piled on top of a fluffy waffle with honey & hot sauce. Too perfect. Bruxie Gourmet Waffles: Now that I have described my ideal chicken & waffles, keep this in mind as I review Bruxie & compare it to Waffle Bus (a Houston food truck). When I stepped into Bruxie, it was clean and well-lit, which made me feel welcome. As I stared at the menu, I had a hard time deciding to what to order because there were so many options. They offer a variety of savory & sweet waffle sandwiches, as well as sodas made with pure cane sugar (the root beer was excellent). And they sell liege waffles! Those are my favorite. :D In the end, I just went with the classic chicken waffle sandwich. Compared to Waffle Bus (Houston), the chicken was thinner and easier to eat, which I appreciated, but the "chili honey" was basically just honey and lacked the flavor of the Waffle Bus ancho chili honey. However, my friend ordered the prosciutto & gruyere waffle sandwich, which is his favorite. THAT WAS GOOD. Even though the chicken & waffle sandwich at Bruxie was not as satisfying as Waffle Bus, I'll definitely be coming back to try other sandwiches. read more

Waffles galore! Tried this place a while back because of all the hype and it was pretty good, I like the texture of the waffle, crunchy yet moist at the same time. They have a lot of different options from savory to sweet, and everything I've tried so far were all pretty tasty. My GO TO picks would have to be the salmon waffle, light and fresh, not too much stuff in it to take away from the waffle itself, and It isn't too heavy, leaves room for a sweet waffle to enjoy ;) I enjoy the creme brûlée with seasonal fruits waffle, yum! Oh and the fries are a good side dish for your waffle or a meal in it's own! :) I feel like for what you get though, it's a bit overpriced and overhyped. This location is pretty busy and not much seating area to enjoy your goodies. Happy eats, loves! ^_^ read more

To my Nor-Cal Yelpers!! You must try Bruxie! It's no wonder why my girls and wife love this place! The food is awesome. I had the Bruxie Burger as I wanted to taste what a burger patty would be like in a waffle. Light mayo with all the fixings and the burger is cooked on med-well, my Bruxie Burger was made to my taste buds delight. I didn't have the fries though seeing the other patrons food wish I had ordered it. My Daughters ordered the Nutella & Bananas, Creme Brulee and S'Mores. My wife had the Turkey Club and that too looked good. Desserts seems to be another niche in which captures the heart. Their Shakes, other treats all look good!. (I apologize to all the customers that I stared at today your food looked so delicious!) Seating is limited here and on a FCFSB (First Come, First Serve Basis), but don't let that stop you. The open seating area is nice and right on the corner of a busy street and walk area. Eat in or take out, but if you choose take out find a place nearby and begin to grub!! With 6 locations in the So Cal area Orange, Brea, Chino Hills, Irvine, Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach a Bruxie Restaurant must come to the SF Bay Area. Mainly to the San Jose area and the heart of Silicon Valley. This restaurant would fit nicely in the Downtown Area of San Jose near the Fairmont Hotel. One can only wish! Wow that was biased haha :) sorry SF :) This 'aint no leggo my eggo, this is Waffles and Waffles is not what's for breakfast anymore, it's what you want with it and at ant time!! p.s. I will need to make at least 2 mores stops before my vacation ends this week!

Concept is original but I have to say that the fries are on the hard, dry side and unfortunately same goes for the waffle. Had the angus beef burger which was also not as flavorful. Based on other yelpers photo... The rest of the menu looks worth trying. I wish they could make the waffle more on the fluffy and sweet side to really see the flavors of mix matching come through, like the salmon or the pulled pork. Service was great, location was also pretty central and right next to the movie theater. On a hot summer days, they have the mist coolers to cool you down on their outdoor seating!! I could come back and maybe try others on the menu to raise my review a bit.... Maybe read more

The Pros: In a great location. Cool concept. The Cons: the execution is just not there. It seems like fried chicken slapped between 2 waffles. Didn't feel like a cohesive sandwich. The fries were just bleh. I really was excited to come here since I was given a gift card, but I can't say I will ever return. Just doesn't work for me. read more

One of my favorite places to eat, will never get tired of it. I love the original waffle. I always order for pick up so my order will be ready when I get there and just find a table where we can eat instead of waiting because most of the time the lines are long ( I go on weekends). They have seating available inside and if they are all occupied, there's plenty of tables in the picnic area. Service is good. read more

I've been coming here to Bruxie for awhile now, and for some reason I've always been disappointed or unimpressed with the food. I could never pinpoint it on anything - the service is great, the concept is great, and I love fried chicken. I would always order the Nashville Hot/Kickin Chicken sandwich. Great flavor, but my waffles would always end up a bit soft and soggy no matter if I dine in or take out. Then I started ordering the Fried Chicken and Waffle. I was pleasantly surprised with the sweet element of the waffle, but still not something I would typically crave. Finally... it dawned on me. Maybe I'm just not a fan of waffles. My last and recent visit, I ordered the Holy Chicken Sandwich and substituted the waffle buns with regular buns. BAM. There it was. A perfectly good, not soggy chicken sandwich. It took me several years and multiple visits to get my order down. Now if only they can get their waffle fries up to Chick-fil-A's level. read more

Ordered the Buttermilk Fried Chicken Salad. The Salad was wonderful once I got it. The cashier was also right on her game taking my order. Who would have thought that the place could turn out the eight orders following me before they could get a salad ready.

If you have a high blood pressure,Heart disease,and prone to getting a stroke this place is not for you.Its been awhile since i had bruxie.Wifey and i was cravin for some chicken and waffles.Wifey got the green ham snd eggs and I decided to change my order this time instead of chicken I wanted to try the Pastrami waffle sandwich.Boy oh boy the pastrami was loaded with salt.It was way too salty.Seems like the chef behind the kitchen doesn't taste his food at all.They doused my pastrami with a ton of salt and it was hard eat bcoz all you can taste is salt.The biggest joke of all times they charge $15 for a waffle and pastrami that has no quality and the servings is small.They can raise up and manipulate the price but the size of the waffle is pretty much the same.My wifes green eggs and ham was pretty salty also.We ended throwing it away half of the food and it was that bad.Good we thing we added a criss cut fries and ketchup.It did help washing it down the saltiness of the food.Would i ever come back and try it again.The answer is Hell to the NO!it was overpriced and portions sucks and super SALTY.Ill rather spend my money on LANGERS Delicatessen in LA they have the best pastrami and corned beef sandwiches and more...... read more

I worked at the RSM location back in 2013 for a few months. The owners are great people that care about the quality of the food and their employees. The food here is amazing.

Waffles for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? Count me in! I've been eating here a while now, and I finally got around to writing a review about it. Every experience I've had at Bruxie has been a good one because the food is served fresh and the service is fantastic. For breakfast I always like to order the green eggs and ham. Just scrambled eggs, melted cheddar, ham, with some arugula pesto sauce (took out mayo because pesto sauce is enough). Perfect combo in a toasted waffle sandwich. For lunch, the classic fried chicken and waffles is also sure to please. All of their sandwiches are pretty tasty. Waffle fries are also really good! Great spot for fast dining to satisfy that craving. read more

I really enjoy Bruxie and this location is ideal for a brunch or lunch date. Staff are always really friendly and welcoming. My friends enjoy the al fresco dining experience and the chicken is super tasty. I also think the sauces are really excellent. I confess that I'm not a waffle fan, but it hardly matters because the chicken tenders and fries (waffle cut - what else?) never disappoint. The restaurant patio is dog friendly and there is a dog water bowl outside. Park in one of the structures and explore downtown Brea after your meal. read more

I love this bruxie because there's more space to eat and shorter lines than the one in orange. Free 3hr parking behind old navy that's a block away! I didnt enjoy my tuna salad, it was pretty bland (long story short: I was on a strict diet). I should have gotten the grilled chicken one with mushrooms. Speaking of mushrooms, my friends got the sandwich with cheese and mushroom! SO GOOD!!! I love how tasty the mushrooms were!!! We all shared the irish nacho, which was good but I wasn't that impressed. They're waffle fries lightly drizzled with sourcream, cheese and bacon. For dessert I tried the frozen custard. I was expecting it to be more like custard pudding, not vanilla ice cream. The ice cream was soft and light with subtle custard flavor to it. It was good but I think its a bit pricey for what it's worth. read more

Love this place! The service was really quick, within 2-3 mins after we were seated, we had our food. The waffle was really good and the chicken that I had wasn't dry at all. The chicken may need a little more flavor but overall, my chicken and waffle sandwich was awesome and I will definitely be coming back to try other sandwiches! They also have free wi-fi which was awesome too :D read more

Oh, Bruxies. Waffles and meat, WHAT?! I was VERY skeptical of this place. Why would you mix waffles with meat and other non-sweet food items?! It just can't be. BUT I tried it and I was blown away. But that's just Bruxie's in general. ...SERIOUSLY? Why did this not come about before? I went to the Bruxie's in Orange first and then came here. This place is a lot bigger in space and more parking space too. It's in an area where there's lots of other restaurants and shopping area so it can get crowded. The food was similar to the one in Orange, but I think the creme brulee was better here. The service kind of sucked... well, maybe just the cashier. We went at a time when there weren't many people, but it doesn't give an excuse to why the server was using his iPhone when taking our order. RUDE!!!! Plus, it was slow so there were random workers every where doing nothing but talking. There were probably too many people at that shift time.... One thing I'm not crazy about is the price. It's so darn pricey. I'm a starving college student for crying out loud- I can't afford $6-8 on waffle sandwiches that I can finish within 5 minutes. I think I can eat 2-3 just by myself.. #fatgirlproblems Bottom line, I'd come back. read more

Came here to try the famous waffles and thought the food was just ok. The chicken and waffles sandwich ($6.95) was not bad but not particularly special either. The waffle was light and crispy. The chicken is a piece of boneless chicken that looked like it had spices on it but it tasted kind of plain. We also tried the leicht waffle ($3.95). It is thicker and sweeter - they make it sweeter by placing clumps of white sugar in the waffle. It made it sweeter but in a rather nasty way. It may look like it but tastes nothing like the yummy waffles you can get in Europe. We also tried the black cherry pure cane sugar soda ($2.50) it tastes like cough syrup. This place is an open stand but is new and clean. There is a large parking structure nearby with free parking. They use the food baskets to cram down the trash. Kind of nasty - i really hope they clean the baskets before serving food on them again...??! The chicken and waffles gets about 3 stars but everything else gets 2 stars. read more

A very good place to go to when you want to grab something quick to eat. My favorite is the Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Waffle. I love the chili honey sauce and the cider slaw really goes well with it. When ordering they recommend you get the extra maple syrup on the side but I think there's no need. The sandwich itself is pretty sweet to begin with and I think the maple syrup is overkill. read more

Bruxie - Bruxie Burger, Buttermilk Fried Chicken & Waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brea, California

I've heard about Bruxie for awhile now, but I started visiting the OC more often lately and I coincidentally happened to stumble onto the Bruxie in downtown Brea. I didn't know that there was a location here! I actually had dinner plans in about 2 hours, but since I couldn't turn down the opportunity to check out Bruxie since I was in the area, I went ahead and bought the fried chicken and waffle. I'd have to say that it's not much to look at, but it's absolutely delicious! The waffles can't compare to that of Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles, but they were still light, airy, and slightly crispy on the outer layer, which I really liked. The fried chicken wasn't what I expected in terms of looks. It was a chicken patty, instead of a piece of chicken with bones. The chicken was juicy and savory with a hint of sweet from the honey. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bruxie-brea?select=PM4tuCnGwkZl5TbOhSZYSA#VZa016zPlrs6ZLVPFZiHGQ read more
