I had a great first experience at BJ's! It was really good. I really enjoyed their Chicken Parmesiana. It's was super filling and delicious. Also, the rest of the food was good too, especially the dessert. The service here was great! Our waitress was very kind and helpful. This place had a good ambiance to it. Overall, great restaurant and I highly recommend it. read more

My wife and I have been a loyal customer of BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse on 28th in Boulder for YEARS, often eating there several times a week. Today, they lost my business. I walked in to pick up my wife's online order, gave the correct name, and the employee found it but then looked at me and demanded ID or confirmation before she would hand it over to prove who I was. This has Never Ever happened before. I was initially shocked and confused and questioned why I was suddenly being asked this she said I needed to prove who I am. I then said I want to talk to your manager now. The manager stated that was their policy and I said I come here all the time for years and never once was asked for proof of who I am. I even challenged him to look up my rewards number and see that I eat here and order pick a lot! He just doubled down that I had to prove who I was. Then General Manager Joel P. came out and told me that people steal food and they had to prove that I wasn't try to steal the order!!!!! Joel P. did not ask why I was upset or what was going on. He looked at me and immediately wanted to make sure I wasn't stealing my own food that I just paid 83 dollars for. So I asked the obvious question: What about me made you think I might be a thief? He glared at me and I told them the experience felt like racial profiling. Why am being insulated to be a food thief when I am just picking up my online order. I asked for his information and that I was going to make a compliant. Instead of taking that concern seriously, General Manager Joel P. became defensive, stepped within inches of me and glared at me as he shoved his card at me and said threateningly I want your name, which I gave him. He was physically violating my personal space as he was inches from me glaring at me. Then I said they had lost a longtime customer and turned to leave, and his response was "So, goodbye, sorry you're offended." I said "really, that's not an apology" and stormed out. If EVERY customer is now required to prove their identity before picking up food, enforce that policy consistently. But after years of walking into this same restaurant, giving a name, getting my food and leaving without incident, I have one question: What changed today? I've filed a formal complaint with BJ's. I won't be returning. And I don't believe Joel P. treats all his customers like this. read more

What a wonderful time our group had - food and service was terrific. I especially liked the tortilla soup and my friends gobbled up burgers and more. read more

We are here two nights in a row while staying in Boulder. Service was quick and efficient. Steak was tender and delicious. Potatoes were perfect! Parm Crusted Chicken was amazing! Chicken Parm and fish and chips were also very good. read more

Out of 10 inch pizzas at 4pm on a Saturday. Restaurant not busy. Waiter offered no explanation, didn't seem to care about anything at all. Never asked how the food was. Definitely won't be back to this location or maybe any BJ's at all. $32 for 2 personal 1 topping pizzas is a joke. read more

General Manager Joel and his staff in Boulder, were very helpful and made an awkward situation right. It started when I had ordered 4 pizza's for my work staff online to be picked up the next day at 11:30. When I arrived I discovered that they could not find my order? To make a long story short it actually got sent to the Westminster store. And even though they were slammed with the Pre-game CU Buffalo crowd, the team got on it as quickly as they could and soon after I had my Pizza's! A big thank you again to BJ's in Boulder for your service! :). read more

My friends & I either eat in person or pick up to go at least twice a month at BJ's in Boulder . Most recently got take out of crispy chicken sandwich and baked potato with sour cream / bacon/ cheese . Food is usually good especially hot food as opposed to salads . Salads could be fresher . Crispy chicken sandwich was delicious but wished I had gotten mayonnaise mixture on the side . Potato with stuffings was perfectly cooked . This particular BJ's is well managed , friendly Employees . Good vibes ! Always busy esp around 6:00 pm . On weekends . read more

Whereas BJ's prices have significantly gone-up ( like everywhere else ! ), the quality of its food and services are going down. Was there last week to celebrate a couple of birthdays. Not only did we have a waitress on edge but also an expensively disappointing food experience. Unlike the $13 burger/ pizzolie deal I usually order, my " Classic burger " was very thin and the fries were equally tasteless and soggy. Un,Ike in past visits, my "tomato and Mozarella" salad only had two tiny chunks of tomato, hardly any dressing and was drowned in dried Aragula leaves. Might as well have gone to Mac Donald next door ! read more

I've visited this establishment twice in the last month or so. First visit was a girls night out where we caught happy hour before a movie. We sat in the bar area and enjoyed some margaritas, mozzarella sticks and pizza. The pizza was pretty good (better on the prior visit), not sure I'd again. Tho it happy hour we did have some issues with our check, most were corrected before we left. More recently I came back for a date night. Alexus was our waitress and she was wonderful! Her recommendations were spot on. We loved the buffalo boneless wings, IPAs on draft and the spinach artichoke dip. She was so friendly, professional and fun that we really enjoyed our visit and can't wait to come back! read more

We haven't been in a minute so we decided to grab a bite before our movie since it's so close. I ordered my usual avocado egg rolls and they are as tasty as ever. A little kick in a cold night and something you can't get anywhere else. My husband ordered the Brewhouse Bowl with e blackened shrimp on our server's suggestion and it was delicious! Everything tasted great and it was nice to have something healthy knowing the egg rolls and the popcorn I will have at the movie are not. Our server was great! Friendly and attentive with great suggestions. We will have to remember this before the next movie! read more

"I would like x dish, but no onions, I'm allergic. "No problem. " Brings dish with lots of white onions. "I can't eat this. it has onions." "Uh, ok." Checks with kitchen. "Since before it was just red onions, but now it's all onions, we can't make this dish without onions." Guys, it's one thing to make a mistake and another not to own up about it. Yes, they did have good food and service other than that. read more

The food was ok. The house salad was very good. I had the steak and was cooked to order. The service was good. The server knew her stuff. Ambiance is my favorite part of the restaurant. The only thing is they were going to put us in the corner booth but I requested one that I can see the tv's read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - Boulder Review BJ's in Boulder is the kind of spot that surprises you--in the best way. It's a casual brewpub on the surface, but the quality of the food, variety of the menu, and value for your money make it stand out in a sea of chain restaurants. First off, the menu is massive, but not in a throw-stuff-at-the-wall kind of way. It's well thought out, with something for just about every taste, from steaks and burgers to pasta, tacos, and deep-dish pizzas. And the portion sizes are generous, especially when you factor in their regular deals and specials. Some standouts: The Bacon & Brisket Burger hits all the right notes--smoky, juicy, rich, and loaded without feeling messy. The 6oz Sirloin and Half Rack of BBQ Ribs combo is a total win. The ribs are tender with just the right amount of sauce, and the steak comes out surprisingly well-prepared for a non-steakhouse setting. Even the sides feel like they weren't phoned in. You really get a bang for your buck here, which isn't always the case at places with this kind of vibe. And then--dessert. Most pubs like this treat dessert like an afterthought, but BJ's Pizookies (cookie skillets with ice cream) are a staple for a reason. They're warm, gooey, and nostalgic in the best way. Skipping dessert here would honestly be a mistake. Service is efficient and friendly, and the atmosphere is just right for anything from a casual dinner to a game-day hangout. Whether you're in for a quick bite or a full meal, BJ's Boulder location consistently delivers high quality and serious value. read more

A go-to place with a very large menu so everyone comes out happy. They have a M-F "$13 deal" menu now that has some really nice things on it - Italian Chicken Parm - excellent although a VERY small serving Chicken Bacon Ranch Piadina - also excellent- its like a chicken bacon ranch quesadilla with parm crusted pita-like bread. Both were "$13 ea" but even those two and an app, plus one iced tea, it was still a $60+ bill - upcharge for sweet potato fires, upcharge for side salad sub, upcharge for extra ranch. But its a very nice place, comfortable, great outdoor seating. Usually service is good, outside was really slow service - I would say their standards have fallen as our waitress was strange - casual and friendly (think Chilis like) is great and welcoming, but there is a line where it gets too casual and uncomfortable - we hit that. read more

On a trip had $100 for food the way here and back for 4 meals at 4 stops I asked specifically for a kids meal spaghetti with smiley fries and a root beer $5 for a root beer is insane They gave me an adult portion of spaghetti and forgot my fries 25$ Got a pazzuki 8$ Ended up being $46 and I feel I was scammed . I now don't have enough money for the way back from camp. Thanks for starving me BJ's read more

BJ's my beloved. I was in Boulder this weekend visiting CU Boulder, when it was announced that a lot of places were going to be shutting off power due to 100 mph winds. It just so happened that our hotel was one of the places that was shutting off power. With nothing to do, my brother, dad, and I went out to watch a movie at an area where there was power. After the movie, we needed someplace to eat. BJ's was close by and it's open late, so we decide to grab a bite. As it turned out, lots of other people in Boulder decided to do the same thing, on account of the power being out; it was bustling and the vibes were great. I ordered the chicken club, which honestly wasn't that bad. I know some people look down on BJ's but you gotta admire their consistency. There was good flavor from the avocado and bacon, and the chicken was plentiful (it was a tad overly salty, tho). The fries were also good, thin and crispy. Our server was also really friendly, stopping to talk with us about the faulty design of the water pitcher. Then came the star of the show, the chocolate chunk pizookie. This was my second time at BJ's, and this time around, I was DETERMINED to eat a pizookie. I'm glad to report it was everything I'd hoped it'd be. The cookie was warm, the chocolate was gooey, the ice cream was cold and creamy. Pure bliss. If you're out late at night and don't know here to eat dinner, GO TO BJ'S. And be sure to order a pizookie. read more

I was seated up in the bar area immediately. I decided not to raise the issue of being seated in a quieter area, because I was sure they were trying to make it more efficient for the servers to serve everybody. After 5 minutes, I still had no menu. I started reading the menu on my phone from the web page. 10 minutes after I got there, I still hadn't been approached to give my order. Somebody dropped off a glass of water though. A couple minutes more, and I just decided to take off. I learned from the menu that their cheapest, smallest steak is now $25. And there's no way that my experience is going to start getting better after the way that it started. The woman who seated me didn't ask me why I was leaving. I walked past two servers, young men, who were just standing around talking with each other. I had to walk past them to get out the entrance. Edited to add: How funny. I just read a review from over five years ago about the spinning front door being broken. Yeah. It's still not working. read more

Crappy service 2nd time in a row: Last time, the tables were rocking by easily one inch. Asked server for shims which he vehemently declined "he can't do that". Today we sat at the bar for 10 minutes after two people left before their empty glasses and used napkins were cleaned off. Bar tender said he'd be right back but never came back: the previous people's food scraps remained in front of us. We finally left and ate somewhere else. That's crappy service we don't accept. read more

We went to BJS Boulder on Tuesday night, it wasn't one of their special nights except for 1/2 price wine and $5.00 Pizookis. I do drink wine so I upgraded to a wine outside the house wine. We don't care for the Pizookis anymore. I don't like dark chocolate and the others are too rich or have too much sugar. We used to like the white chocolate, macadamia nut but they took it away. We were lucky enough to get KEENAN as our server. He was absolutely terrific. He was courteous, friendly, attentive, entertaining, and made sure to get us exactly what we ordered and followed up to make sure we didn't need anything while we were there. He also asked if we had any allergies, (which most servers never do that). I explained I did and it was beans. He followed up on what I ordered to make sure there were no beans in anything in my dinner order. That was beyond what most servers ever do and I think it was absolutely terrific, and well above and beyond what we would expect. He was very pleasant, engaging, and went beyond what most servers do to make sure we had a terrific dining experience. The food was excellent, cooked to our liking, fresh and well presented. We also got to see Paula one of the managers. She is always so very pleasant, friendly, kind, humorous, and always a joy to see. We again had a terrific dining experience. The people are always terrific and a pleasure to see and interact with. Great job everyone. Make sure you stop by for lunch or dinner you will enjoy it and will want to return I guarantee it. read more

We've been to BJ's before, but this time the menu seems to be refreshed, which is nice! We were quickly seated and given waters. I ordered the Fettucine Alfredo, and it was pretty good, after I started making it myself I have become a tough judge to others' Alfredo. This wasn't the worst, but, there are better ones out there. GF had the Jalapeno Burger and really enjoyed it. It was cooked perfectly, a little pink for her, but we all know that a little pink is how it's supposed to be! Service was quick and everything we ordered came out hot and fresh. The inside is as you'd expect for a BJ's, nothing fancy. It's a great addition to Boulder, and you can't go wrong with them for a quick bite to eat. read more

We visited this location for lunch and ordered the brewhouse chicken and fish and chips. The fish was labeled as "blonde", however, it was fried so hard, it was very dark brown. It was not even edible. Thankfully, the server was incredibly nice and took the fish and chips off the bill. He is what earned the 3 stars. I would not recommend this location. read more

Again another great meal at BJs, I got the soup and salad, my friend got the cheeseburger with fries. Service was suberb as always. Thanks BJs read more

In past times, I have had amazing service that always made me excited to come back. This time, however, I had a server named Tom and he was really rude to me and my friends, his presence was threatening and he kept rushing us from the moment he gave us our food and would ignore us. When we were going to pay, he walked away as I was asking a question. He made me and my friends feel scared to leave. There were football boys and adults around us, and while he treated them with respect, because me and my friends were young woman, he took advance of that fact to pressure us and make us feel belittled. read more

My boyfriend and I went here earlier tonight and had a fine time, I don't have any complaints. The service was quick, this place is HUGE so they always seem to have more than enough room to seat literally everyone, and lastly the food was good. read more

After flying all day, our group found BJ's right across the street from our hotel. We stopped in for an early, casual dinner. There's a large beer menu which you would expect at a brew house. A cold beer and a bacon cheeseburger was just what I was looking for. Would I go out of my way to dine here? No, but it was fine for the night we did. read more

Came to this restaurant one night and there weren't many people there. The hostess had us wait at the front while she counted the number of people in the establishment to see if she could seat us. There were plenty of open tables and booths. Once seated, the waitress was great. We ordered drinks and food. The food came out very quickly. The wings were good. The burgers and spaghetti were pretty basic. Definitely bar food. read more

Outside, arrived to crew painting parts of the building ~ they assured me to overspray would end up on my closely-parked car. Gteeted upon entry - (No issue with having my ESA accompanying me.) Advised them their website was down as to waitlist and reservations and that I'd opted for Open Table reservation, instead. Seated promptly by Alex, who provided me with two double-sided plus one giant four page menu! WoW. Alcohol Menu had no prices for Signature Cocktails or Wine. That's helpful, NOT! Roberto, my Server, arrived promptly and was nice and very attentive. After he researched the wine prices for me, I settled on the 14 Hands Merlot. Yeah, it is what it is ~ passable for $9./glass. For starters, I began with their Mozzarella and Tomato Salad. It was a nice size and appropriately dressed in a balsamic vinaigrette, but, mostly very "stemmy" arugula; little basil greens with intermittent mozzarella balls and largely diced tomatoes, mixed with grated shreds of Parmesan. Tasted okay. I subbed out the rice on my Fresh Atlantic Salmon and broccoli for tomato soup. It arrived quickly hot and topped with three large croutons. Very good. I opted to take half to-go, so I had room for my entrée. Salmon was good-sized portion in a lemony buerre blanc with lottts of bright broccoli and one slice of lemon. Niiiceee! (Okay, I asked for additional lemon wedges, but that's just me!) Overall, a pleasant Sunday dining experience. read more

I order online from BJ's.... Quite frequently over the last few years. Every time BJ's screws up the order somehow.....tonight I ordered the honey mustard chicken salad..... It came without dressing. don't get me wrong, the food is good... Not great but good but how can I get a honey mustard chicken salad where the sales point is the honey mustard dressing and my salad arrives with no dressing. (I love the salad, I've had it dozens of times in the past, but it needs to be dressed!!!!) read more

Honestly do like this place, but listening to a bartender go on and on about how "the schedule was messed up" and "now he has to work an extra hour" and that he "just has to deal with it...blah blah blah"... 5 feet away from me while I just wanted to have a beer and burger at the bar, was lame as can be. Full voice, chatting up another employee sitting at the bar... non stop for 30 minutes. i mean, come on. Distracting and annoying and totally unprofessional. not the first time either... this person just drones on about "now i have to work a double and didn't sleep last night.... blah blah blah". Never a manager in sight. Might want to address this. I'll literally never sit at the bar again if that clown is working. read more

I am in the restaurant industry but did do delivery from you. It was a horrible pizza and very cold and paid $32 for it. I know it's DoorDash but still was not good what so ever. And am very unhappy about paying what I did, did have to go and get something else afterwards read more

Great selection of their own beers and although some of the dishes are on the small side, they were tasty. My favorite was the Poke Noodle dish. What was cool was I asked for a specific local brew (Avery) and they gave me a taste, though it wasn't on the menu! How cool is that! Definitely coming back. read more

This BJ's location is fantastic, the interior decor is very ritzy and extremely welcoming. I came here on a cold Tuesday winters night with a friend to catch up and have dinner. The service was nothing short of 5 star, from the way we were welcomed, to the way the food was brought out, everything was exceptional. I ordered one of their burgers accompanied with their famous sweet potato fries, and it was absolutely mouth watering. The burger was cooked to perfection, nicely cooked on the outside, and slightly pink in the middle. The bun was nice and doughy with a hint of sweetness to it. For desert we got the chocolate brownie Pizookie with vanilla ice cream on top. This was by far one of the tastiest deserts I've ever had in the US. The cookie was to die for! It was nice and doughy in the middle, and crispy on the outside, which was the perfect texture for something like this. Overall I had a stellar experience at this BJ's. I can't wait to come back! read more

My family and I came in out of town on a trip and had an amazing experience. The food itself was delicious; as a caesar salad fanatic the chicken caesar was one of the best I've ever had. The pizookie trio changed my life. Our server Evan truly made the experience and was so fun and attentive! I would 10/10 recommend this location and had an amazing first time at BJ's. Yelp me yelp you. read more

I'll be frank. I've only ever eaten at this franchise twice in my life. I've eaten at one in OKC and now here in Boulder CO. I've been let down both times. The start of todays meal was not off to a good start. When walking through the doors, the host at the door wasn't the most pleasant... rude. To add further salt to the wound, the Menu's received, were nasty, and the table had crumbles left from the previous guest. The positive note: Brayden, was the only light to the whole situation. He was our waiter, such a good waiter. He attended to our needs and made sure that the issues were addressed. On to the food, disappointing. Too much old bay seasoning, and too much salt... on the New Orleans Jambalaya. I do recommend the bar area. The wine and sangria was spot on. read more
