    Cinnamon sugar
    Christina T.

    Ordered a cinnamon sugar pretzel through their app, and food was hot, fresh and ready before my estimated pick up time. The cashier was friendly and order was prepared when I got there. While there aren't any tables inside, there is a ton of outdoor seating, offering great ambiance, where you can enjoy your pretzel at. The pretzel tasted like it was fresh from the oven and was soft and chewy, unlike some places that leave their pretzels sitting there for hours. 10/10 favorite snack spot at the spectrum!

    After my massage, I was craving pretzels, so I decided to stop by Wetzel's Pretzels. Luckily, there were no lines when I got there! The pretzels were so fresh and delicious warm, buttery, and perfectly salted. I devoured mine in seconds; honestly, it was the best pretzel I've ever had. I ended up going back for seconds, and a guy named Sal (I believe that was his name) was so nice and hooked me up with another batch of fresh pretzels. His customer service was amazing super friendly and attentive. Overall, everything from the food to the service was a 10/10. I'll definitely be back for more fresh, buttery goodness!

    Can't really go too wrong with wrestle pretzel and we took advantage the summer special of BOGO on the pretzels. The coupon was a little cumbersome to redeem off the website but the cashier was helpful in trying to navigate to redeem. They were fast with their service and the pretzels were good as always!

    It's the details. Customer-centric.

    4/26/23. National Pretzel Day done right. I tried my 1st Wetzel ever that day due to this generous offer (free large pretzel). The staff at this Irvine Spectrum location were top notch that day. Properly staffed. Double the # of staff for half the size store of its competitor. Friendly and happy team. They even stayed late -- continuing to bake beyond the official store closing time. Excellent customer service right there. We had the complete opposite experience at Auntie Anne's which is nearby at the same shopping center. What a difference. First impressions matter. I'll be back at Wetzels. Thank you

    I love Wetzel's Pretzels!!! Way better than Auntie whatever's pretzel shop lol Anyway, this one is located at the Irvine Spectrum. We walked past looking for a restaurant that we planned on eating for lunch. When we passed, I commented on how much I love this pretzel place lol My boyfriend then told me that he doesn't really like pretzels and I lost my mind LOL He said he's had pretzels in the past but they were not good. To which, I explained that Wetzel's Pretzel is the best around, and isn't dry or hard. At that moment, I realized that we were gonna hit Wetzels Pretzels for a second lunch lolol After we walked around for a bit. We stopped in. I ordered my favorite- the pretzel plain (no salt), with cheese sauce for dipping, a strawberry lemonade. And my boyfriend wanted to try the horchata drink. We shared the pretzel and guess whattttt..... My boyfriend said it was the best pretzel he has ever had! Score hahaha His horchata drink was so good as well! The strawberry lemonade was way too sugary for me to drink the whole thing. Overall, though, yum! And his first time. I will say, this is not the best Wetzel Pretzel location. But it is good. And it doesn't have to be the best location for me to come back.

    Came for National Pretzel day! Line moved pretty fast because the pretzels were completely free, so no need to go through the app or payment. Pretzels were hot and fresh, and delicious! Service was friendly. Thank you so much!

    When my son sees a Wetzel's Pretzels he can't pass by it without asking me to get some. And of course I end up eating one or two pieces. It's our favorite out of all pretzel places. Always fresh and delicious. This location is clean and has friendly staff. We have been here a few times and always had a pleasant experience. Lots of outdoor sitting by the water fountain.

    it was expensive but you know it's worth it. the pretzel is 5 star worthy. the service was good, it smelled so good in there. the free water was chilly and good! all in all if you feeling like ballin this place is worth.

    Pretzels were good after scraping off a handful of salt from them. Fingers were left covered in butter. Was expecting a lot more for $10 so I probably won't be returning.

Food is ordered up front and beer is in the back bar area. The beers are all German and Belgian which is a nice change from most places. They have many styles of sausages and you can top them with any of their toppings. There's even vegetarian sausages so no one is left out. Belgian fries cooked 3 times is their other specialty served with a bunch of sauce options. There's an outdoor patio area and the bar area inside where most of the seating is. It took me too long to visit here but I'll be back soon.

Their concept focused on gourmet sausages, Belgian and German beers, communal dining tables, and a relaxed social atmosphere. We came here with our group our friend and got to feast upon some dogs and wursts. One of the interesting features that have is that they carry exotic proteins such as alligators, rabbit, or rattlesnake in their links; but if you're more of a vanilla eater, than you're probably opt for the beef, pork or chicken flavored. Either way, make sure you pair it with any of their 10+ beers on tap and you'll for sure enjoy every moment of that bite. I ordered their cheddar bratwurst topped with pickled jalapenos and carmelized onions in a pretzel bun. The wurst was kind of the dry side but beer always helps. I do think sometimes that they over cook it which drys out all the delicious fat out of the links but I am here for drinks and a good time. Great spot to hang out for any type of gathering.

Parking at…read morespectrum can be very difficult depending on what time you are there and there is a chance that you will have to walk a good amount to get to this location from where you park. There is no seating available inside but there are some tables outside. We went on a weekend and tried to order 2 cinnamon pretzels. They didn't notify us until after we paid that they were out of those pretzels at the time and their solution was to have us either opt for a plain pretzel, an almond pretzel, or wait 10 minutes for them to make more. We asked if we could just change the order and pay the difference to upgrade to pretzel bites, but they were unable to do that. We ended up waiting for the fresh pretzels and they were very apologetic about it. Despite just being made, the pretzels were fairly hard and chewy. The texture made it seem like they had been sitting out for a while. It's an okay spot, but there are options that I'd rather go to first before picking this one.

I…read morewasn't able to redeem the free pretzel myself, but my sister was able to, so we still ended up stopping by. We ordered the Sweet Almond Pretzel, Pepperoni Bites, plus both the cheese dip and marinara. The original pretzel was honestly the highlight of this visit. Since they were making them fresh for the T-Mobile promotion, it came out warm, soft, buttery, and reminded me why it's such a classic favorite. The Sweet Almond Pretzel was good, but we felt like it almost needed a dip to help balance the sweetness -- although adding one might have made it too sweet overall. It still had really nice flavor, just depends on your sweetness preference. The Pepperoni Bites were pretty much what you'd expect. They're solid, but definitely one of those items that can vary depending on freshness. When they're freshly made and not sitting, they're really good. Overall, it was a great midday snack -- perfect for that in-between lunch and dinner craving. The staff was helpful and friendly, and Auntie Anne's is always a staple for us whenever we're craving pretzels.

    To the Management Team at Hangar 24, I wanted to share some…read morefeedback regarding the recent changes to your live entertainment format. For years, Hangar 24 has been a place where families can gather, enjoy great food and drinks, listen to live music, and allow their children to safely play and have fun. It has created a welcoming environment that appeals to a broad audience, and that family-friendly atmosphere is one of the reasons so many people continue to return. Last night, however, I noticed a significant change that concerned me. Instead of having the live band perform earlier in the evening, a DJ played first and the band performed much later. Many people, including myself, came specifically to enjoy the live band, and the new format seemed confusing to much of the crowd. As I observed throughout the evening, very few people were dancing during the DJ set. Most guests remained seated, looking uncertain about the change. In addition, some of the music selections and volume level felt inappropriate for a venue that attracts so many families with young children. I noticed several children covering their ears, and many parents appeared uncomfortable. From my perspective, Hangar 24's customer base is largely made up of families. Those families purchase food, drinks, and often stay for several hours while their children enjoy the outdoor space. By scheduling the live band later in the evening, many parents are forced to leave before the performance begins because their children are tired or it is simply too late for a family outing. If the goal is to attract a younger nightlife crowd, a better approach might be to have the live band perform earlier in the evening when families are present and then transition to a DJ later at night for guests who prefer that atmosphere. This would allow both audiences to enjoy the venue without alienating the families who have supported Hangar 24 for years. I am sharing this feedback because I genuinely enjoy coming to Hangar 24 and want to see it continue to succeed. I believe many guests share these concerns, and I hope management will carefully consider how these changes may impact the loyal family customer base that has helped make Hangar 24 such a popular destination. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, A Concerned Customer

It was actually pretty good. Plenty of dressings and shaved cheese on top. * Pretzel Bites 3.5/5 - Dense pretzel bread bites with sea salt on top. * Flatbread 3.5/5 - Flatbread okay. Ours came with shredded pork on top that was kinda dry and had no flavor. * Fried Wonton 2/5 - Crispy wontons filled with cream cheese. The cream cheese was a bit much to eat. * Egg Rolls 2/5 - Crispy vegetable egg rolls. Had a bitter aftertaste.
