My husband and I have been coming to Board & Brew for about two years, and we still love it. We usually order two different sandwiches so we can share and try both. My favorite is definitely the Baja Wrap with the secret sauce--it's so good, and I always look forward to it. The atmosphere is one of the reasons we keep coming back. It's a comfortable place to relax, enjoy a great meal, and catch a soccer game on the big screen at the bar. Everyone on the staff is always friendly and welcoming which makes the experience even better. Great place! read more

Excellent food, beer and service. Glad they opened up this place and the mgmt (Christian SP?) understands Customer Service. Everyone here is awesome and will continue to return. read more

Disappointed in my $47 steak overcooked and thin Slow service people were friendly. Hors d'oeuvres were small and expensive. The ambience was nice thanks read more

My husband just got out of surgery and is pretty hungry craving grilled cheese and tomato soup. Board and Brew is on the way home so I called ahead and the order was ready pretty much as soon as I finished paying. It was a very convenient process. The restaurant looked clean and the employees were very friendly and kind. There are a few televisions around showing sports. I'll definitely stop by for lunch. read more

I love the sandwiches here. Today I tried the Baja chicken sandwich for the first time. It was a great combination of flavors and the bread is always soft and delicious. The staff here was also very friendly and helpful read more

Board & Brew - BAJA CHICKEN - Sandwiches Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Been to this location a few times, but never had anything besides sandwiches. This time I thought some potato salad sounded good. Big mistake. I knew when I ate the first bite that I should have spit it out, but......... After that bite; I looked at the container for any expiration date. The bottom said the 27th. I asked the kid behind the counter if that was the packaged date. He had no clue. Even if the potato salad was made AND packaged on the 27th; it was still 12 days old! About 45 minutes later, the stomach cramps started in. Sick for three hours. I only ate one bite. Be careful and check your dates here. Needless to say, I won't be back. read more

What a great spot with outdoor seating, indoor/outdoor bar seating, friendly service, and delicious sandwiches! The team here is so friendly and they even had someone walking around to check in. Definitely not used to that type of service at pay before / quick serve restaurant. My fave is the California delight! My husband likes to switch it up between the chicken club and beef dip. The sandwiches are massive and such a great deal! Have ordered from Board and Brew pickup/delivery many times and the food is always solid but my recent experience with their outdoor area will have me back in again! read more

OK, well let's be honest board and brew is amazing just as it is but what made me really wanna go on here and throw a shout out was due to the service that I got from From Josue B. Super attentive and actually cared about the food that you were ordering asking you a series of questions which is honestly so nice. Not to mention, he was very patient with my friends, and I when we were trying to figure out exactly what to order. ( friends first time) This location should value employees like Josue B read more

Love this place Give me a great review If you need a strong, broadly applicable positive review, you could use: Absolutely outstanding experience! From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations. The quality, professionalism, and attention to detail were exceptional. Communication was clear, the service was prompt, and the results were even better than I had hoped for. It's rare to find a business that consistently delivers this level of excellence. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliability, value, and top-notch customer service. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Board and Brew is hands down my go-to sandwich spot. The bread is always fresh and toasted just right. Their portions are seriously generous, you get your money's worth every time. Every worker is attentive. Very clean establishment. If you are lucky to come in when Irene and James are working they are so nice and knowledgeable and always recommend the best things. read more

The sandwiches are pretty good, but I feel gauged. 25 bucks for two sandwiches and you want to charge me to add pickles to my sandwich? And there's an expected tip on to go orders? Out of control. You should be paying your staff, that's what the $25.00 for sandwiches are for. Good, but gaugey. read more

Open daily 10-8ish Outdoor seating available Live music every Saturday 530-8 Another location in Laguna Niguel North Relaxed surfy beachy vibe with loud music Order, get a number and they bring the food to your table Ordered cheese quesadilla which is a spinach wrap with melted cheese, Italian sub (salami ham turkey Swiss cheese banana peppers thinly shaved lettuce tomatoes mustard Italian dressing on French baguette) and left coast pastrami (hot pastrami Swiss cheese grilled onions banana peppers Dijon mustard on French baguette). Their French baguette is not crunchy but more like a soft dinner roll. I like how the onions are shaved thin. Served on a black plastic basket covered with a piece of paper. No to go boxes but you can get aluminum foil and paper bags by the fountain area. Got sides of secret sauce with every order which tastes very sweet and a bit sour. Not a fan. Self serve fountain drink area. Bar seating with bartender on the right of the restaurant with varieties of beer. Tried the Altamont beer. Can also order food at the bar. Catering available. read more

Grabbed a bite here with my honey before heading over to Lakewood to play softball. Parking is easy in this large strip mall and service was fast and attentive at 6pm on a Wednesday. There were locals in the area at the bar enjoying tv. We sat at a high table and split a left coast pastrami. Our cashier was nice enough to offer us the option to split so the sandwich came out in two baskets instead of 1. I'm happy with this location, as all the board & brew I've been to have been pretty solidly consistent. read more

I love this place very much because the sandwiches here are super fresh, savory flavorful, and delicious. Also, the chips were super crunchy, tasty, and crispy. The lemonade was really sweet and refreshing too. Good service, nice music with a good atmosphere, and I enjoyed my visit today. read more

I come here frequently for my catering orders. They come in a large box, fresh, flavorful and efficient. This location is my go to, always on time and friendly! read more

As a real fan of B & B it pains me to give 3 stars to this location. I've both dined in and ordered take out from this location a few times since it opened. Sadly my experience 80% of the time wasn't the same as their other locations I've frequented. The Baja Beef sandwich (my usual) here is always overcooked and dry, and the meat is skimpy compared to other locations. The Cobb salad is not as fresh and yummy as other locations. The eating area is not as well kept. The employees are ok, but definitely they are not as friendly as I've experienced elsewhere. I will continue to frequent B & B, I will just avoid this location. The RSM & Laguna Niguel locations are much better with food and atmosphere. read more

I like this location better than the others... has a more laid back vibe to it. The bomb sauce is a must for almost every sandwich as it enhances the sandwiches. If you are clever you put it on your side order of potato salad and it's a WOW! read more

Usually this place is fantastic, today's crew......? not so much. Line going to the door, pile of food sitting at the window and 2 gloveless employees more worried about filling up sause cups. ***update, got our food off the counter finally. Not surprised that it's barely luke warm still read more

Great food at a reasonable price/ good value and friendly service. They have a good beer selection- good for a quick bite.

Happy hour from 3-6 is the best! Ethan is one of the best behind the bar and the sandwiches are amazing!

Tuna sandwich gave me terrible food poisoning. Will take me a long time to go back to any board and brew.

Good service. Good location with plenty of parking, outdoor and indoor seating, options to order at the counter or at the bar, and of course fresh food. Bathrooms were clean. I wish board and brew would serve smoothies! read more

Board & Brew never disappoints, but what really makes this location stand out is the amazing team -- especially Christian, Jazz, and Sarah! They are the BEST! Always welcoming, super friendly, and on top of everything. You can tell they genuinely care about the experience and make you feel like a regular, even if it's your first time. The food is consistently fresh and delicious -- you can't go wrong with the Turkado or the Tub O' Tuna -- and that secret sauce? Addicting. Great vibes, great staff, and great sandwiches. Thanks Christian, Jazz, and Sarah for always making our visits awesome! read more

Worst service ever if you like being ignored and treated like a 5 year old this is a place for you. I guess my presence was a inconvenience and my money was not good enough.I will ever come back again! read more

Always great food and customer service! Ambiance was great! Quick efficient service. Will be back again!

Board and brews is good but nothing wow. The sandwiches come with A LOT of lettuce. It's better if u let it wilt a little if you order to go. The sizes of the subs are really good here I will size them that. The secret sauce they have is sweet vinaigrette nothing fancy. read more

Their sandwiches are just the best. The pastrami here is perfect. Tender, flavorful, perfectly seasoned. And a pretty good size as well. Pair it with one of their beers and you're golden. I love their honey blonde, so light and refreshing! Parking is a cinch, plenty in this plaza. It's spacious in here and family friendly, which is a huge plus. Service is excellent. Worth checking out! read more

There was a long hair in my son's sandwich. I made mistake of not keeping it. The waitress took it away and brought back another one in seconds and told me that the kitchen made an extra... there were only 3 tables with people and other customers already got their order... I actually really like this chain restaurant, but not this one in Lake forest read more

Blonde Gen Z girl is super rude. No greeting as I walked in. Literally just gave me the Gen Z stare as I had to do all the talking. Had to say I wanted a drink with my order as she didn't even offer it. Normally i wouldn't make a big deal about something like this but this is the second time I've had the misfortune of having to deal with this miserable individual. Girl has a long way to go when it comes to working in customer service. read more

Great sandwiches and atmosphere Potato salad is not that great but sandwiches and the secret sauce are the bomb read more

Big selection of beer The sandwiches great too There the only place in this area With that many beers read more

New spot my friends and I went to have a sandwich and some beers. The place is nicely spread out with a patio seating section as well. The club sandwich was actually very delicious and freshly made. The price was a little on the high side ($12 sandwich alone). Unfortunately they don't have any sides like fries or onion rings. Cool little bar section they have with a few TV's was . As far as the beers, they had a nice selection of them to choose from. When we went all beers were $4 all day. Hopefully the $4 beers will be a permanent price. Overall good experience with friendly staff. I would recommend this place. read more
