I had a good experience at Brea's Best Burgers. I ordered the Cheeseburger ($6.89) and Sausage Breakfast Burrito ($9.99). The portions are very big, and its ingredients felt clean & fresh. I arrived at Brea's Best Burgers on Friday (around 11:13AM). Parking is convenient and easy. Staff is professional and friendly. Staff spoke Spanish and English. Staff worked hard and quickly. I ordered for "dine-in." I received a small metal number & found a seat, and staff brought the food to the table. I waited only four minutes. So fast! As mentioned, I ordered the Cheeseburger ($6.89) and Sausage Breakfast Burrito ($9.99). The Sausage Breakfast Burrito was the more memorable option. That heavy, hot, & freshly prepared breakfast burrito had fluffy potatoes (similar to textured mashed potatoes), generous cheese, eggs, and savory sausage slices. Its ingredients tasted very fresh, and this hefty breakfast burrito was extremely satisfying. The Cheeseburger was also a solid option. It arrived somewhat lukewarm, but I appreciated the freshness of its ingredients. The Cheeseburger had a toasty, buttered bun; its meat patty carried a light char; and the vegetables were crisp and fresh. Unfortunately, the meat's patty was somewhat bland and under-seasoned. Most of the flavor derived from the fresh vegetables and thinly spread thousand island sauce. Concerning ambiance, Brea's Best Burgers is cozy and attractive. The art mural is vibrant and well-maintained. The furniture is bright, colorful, and clean. The tables are sleek and shiny. However, although its floors were relatively clean, it would have benefited from several more sweeps. Also, I disliked how their music had numerous commercials/advertisements; it felt like radio. In addition, this location can get echoey, so customer chatter might make it somewhat difficult to converse. Overall, I had an enjoyable experience at Brea's Best Burgers. The food is huge, affordable, & fresh. If nearby, you're very fortunate to have such a tasty option. 4.7 out of 5

I hadn't been back here in a while but today I really wanted a charbroiled burger and this place hit the spot. The burger I ordered was massive for the price, and very good. Not greasy at all, which is what I was looking for. I also ordered a side of large fries to share, which was enough for 3 people. Overall the quality was good and exactly what I wanted today. I did an online order and picked up. My order was ready promptly and service was good. This place has a diner feel, with old Brea vibes, conveniently located off Brea blvd, with plenty of parking.

Brea's Best Burgers is one of the staples of the downtown Brea area. Any time you drive by here, you can't miss the big yellow and brown sign on the corner which has been there for ages. The inside has a classic diner feel with a black and white tiled floor, red and white booths, and a great classic cars mural along the back wall. There are also some benches out front if you would like to get some fresh air while you eat. I have only ever eaten burgers here but their menu is pretty extensive and includes burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, salads, Mexican favorites, and breakfast. When you order and dine-in, they will give you a number and bring your food to your table when it is ready. The cashier was friendly as she took my order and when she delivered it. I decided to order the avocado bacon cheeseburger. I thought to myself "wow that looks good" when it arrived. The patty actually looked a little thin, but I took my first bite and it had an excellent char-broiled flavor. The strips of bacon had a nice thickness and were good and meaty. There was also a good amount of avocado. It was a solid burger and pretty filling on its own since I didn't order a side to go with it. I'll definitely be back.

In all my years that I've ive been in the Brea area, I have passed by, but never tried this place. I now have the pleasure of saying this place is great. On a whim, I ordered through their site, and had the pickup order ready within 10 minutes. The store is clean, appearing to be recently renovated in the past 5 years, with an old school diner feel. The food was excellent for the standards of a burger joint. I ordered the chili cheese fries, and the fam got the variety of burgers. Everything was cooked perfectly with fresh ingredients. I don't need to over explain, but there is no lie here. These guys sell the best burger in Brea!

Bacon cheeseburger Lovin'!
Adriana M.

I love this place! I used to live nearby. I would walk over. Delicious food. I mostly stuck to the Bacon burger combo, but I've had the salads and they are quite yummy and substantial. They do not have a drive thru, but it's okay. Word of warning, they have great food so if you go at lunchtime, there WILL be a wait. Worth it!! I highly recommend!

Cheeseburger

Very good burger spot! It was a cool place to sit and eat a good burger. Service is quick as the employees are quick to serve and our food came pretty quick. I ordered the cheese burger with a fries and a drink and my boyfriend tried the chili cheeseburger with the fries. The burgers were $7 so adding in the combo, it was about $12 per meal. I believe total we spent was $27. Wasn't bad for the price especially how we are getting good quality food. The patties are so mpist and the food tasted so fresh! The fries were also very good. They were hot and crispy! Had a good crunch to it too! The only critic we had is that it was advertised as a 50s diner but it didn't feel like it. But I appreciate the effort! Will definitely be back to try their other burgers!

Double Cheeseburger

The last time I had Brea's Best Burgers was well over 15 years ago when I was still in high school. I've been meaning to try this joint again more recently and I'm a little upset that I haven't earlier. I've been here twice within the last few weeks and I plan on coming more often. Here's what I've tried: **Double Cheeseburger: I love, love, LOVE their burgers. It's really love that it's not overly salty like your typical fast food chains. Some may argue that it's bland but I believe they are perfect! All the ingredients are fresh and meats are cooked to perfection. There's the most perfect ratio of spread included on the buns. (5/5) **Sweet Potato Fries: They have the perfect amount of sweetness and salty flavor profiles. Fries are extremely thick and so delicious. (5/5) *Strawberry Shake: Quite expensive at around $7 if you ask me but it's delicious! Sure, it's a simple strawberry shake, but it's super thick and creamy! (5/5) Amazing! Brea's Best Burgers has easily made my list of favorite establishments in Orange County! I hope to become a regular here and try more of their offerings. I've ordered through the phone once and was quoted ten minutes to which they delivered perfectly. I ordered inside for takeout earlier today during a busy hour and my food was ready within 5 minutes! I 100% recommend Brea's Best if you're looking for something delicious and affordable!

Service terrible and rude to begin with, the girl at the counter seems to not like her job( find one where you don't deal with people) Food was bleh. No flavor and over cooked. They look pretty but the taste is just not there. I won't be coming back . Double negative tonight at this place.

Cheeseburger

Brea's Best Burgers truly lives up to its name - it's the best burger I've ever had. I remember trying a burger there for the first time in 2002, and I was amazed at how delicious a burger could be. Since then, whenever someone asks me for a recommendation for a great burger place, I always suggest Brea's Best Burgers. Everyone I've recommended it to has become a regular customer. I usually order the cheeseburger with sweet potato fries and onion rings, and I highly recommend it!

I ordered a 2 egg breakfast special.. It comes with 2 eggs, 2 sausage, hashbrowns, and toast. It was made to order and well prepared. The service from the tall gentleman at the counter was great but the shorter gal that delivered our food was in a terrible mood. The decor place has a great vibe. It feels like a Johnny Rockets or Rubys Diner inside.

First time eating here. They have an overwhelming menu, lots of options. The food was delicious. Really good hamburger and fries. The yellow peppers were delicious and spicy. Staff was friendly and welcoming. The time we went it wasn't busy at all. Recommend this place.

Colossal Cheese Burger with grilled onions and pastrami in it.
Garrie Y.

3.9 Stars I came here for lunch and was craving a Colossal Cheese Burger. It came as expected and it was great. Pastrami, beef patty, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato was yummy. I enjoyed this burger. It's been a while since I had one. It had good flavor and for sure it will get messy as I was eating. The spread in the burger was good and I added a little ketchup to it as well. It's pretty filling for me so I didn't get fries. The orange bang was perfect with my burger. I would recommend this Colossal cheese burger to everyone. I would comeback to get this again or try another sandwich or burger. The place have a cool painting on the wall. It have a great classic burger place vibe to it. It's an order at the counter and find an open table to eat at. I will be back!

My family and I have been eating here since 2003, and they never fail! Great service and food. One of our favorite spots for a quick breakfast or lunch!

We made a reservation and were seated immediately. This location is always very clean and welcoming. We ordered strawberry mimosas, the simple breakfast, omelettes and a burrito with a side of green sauce. Everything was cooked to perfection. The best part of this visit was being served by Thaer. Thaer was a great waiter and extremely attentive. He continued to check on us and did not try to rush us out even though we took quite a bit of time. We would definitely recommend this location and we will definitely be back with hopes to be served by Thaer again! (Sorry not photos, we came hungry and I forgot to take them ‍)

You have to be careful not to pass it since there is only one entrance to the parking lot , if you pass the entrance you will have to make a U-turn and come back. We didn't think we would get seated fast because the parking lot was pretty full. But we got lucky and were seated right away. Service is pretty good , they have a lot of people working here. The place is really big and has a lot of seating. It was quite busy. I ordered a Spanish omelette and my son ordered the blueberry pancakes. My omelette was ok, it had way too much peppers and I didn't see the cheese , it comes with a side so I went with country potato with onions and bell peppers. I only wish that it included some kind of toast. My son's pancakes were ok, they are only topped with blueberries we thought the blueberries were going to be inside the batter or inside the pancake. He had to add a lot of syrup to make them soft. The one thing I will say is that the house coffee is very good. It's Lavazza coffee which is really good. I wouldn't mind coming back and trying some other options or coming back for lunch or happy hour.

The server was very kind and helpful, he was communicative and attentive. And the food! The food was great! It tasted good, AND seemed healthy and nutritious. Also, I appreciated their variety of options. I have a dairy allergy, and am often quite limited in what I can comfortably/safely eat, especially going out for breakfast. But here, they had multiple alternative dairy options! I even was able to get an oat milk latte! I will definitely be back. Love this place and am so glad they opened up this location.

Service was friendly and quick. Restrooms are available inside. Hot lattes were delicious but more so "WARM LATTES" and not actually HOT /: which was disappointing but the flavor was good. We got the coffee flight: Pistachio, Chocolate, & Horchata. Food was good but it lacked seasoning - i definitely had to add quite a bit of salt and hot sauce to enjoy it. I would probably go somewhere else if I wanted eggs Benedict. We ordered the Birria eggs Benedict and the chilaquiles. It was good but nothing exciting, I would order something else next time or go to a different breakfast spot. But overall, I left happy but not full.

Breakfast burrito? Yes please. This is probably one of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had…read moreand this place knows how to load up a burrito. I went with the meat lovers version and this thing was packed. Eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon, ham, melty cheese, and all wrapped tight in a warm tortilla. They don't skimp on anything. It's got that diner-style heartiness, and when you pour on the red or green salsa...Boom! everything just ties together. The homeade salsa was amazing also! Inside, it's got a classic local joint feel. Booths, tile floors, jerseys and photos on the wall, it gives off that neighborhood diner energy. The staff's cool, real chill. The guys behind the counter looked like they were having a good time while working, which always makes the whole place feel more welcoming. I'm not even from this area, just happened to be driving through and needed a good breakfast spot. Yelp pointed me here, and I'm glad it did. Total hidden gem for sure.

You order at the front, and a staff member brings the food over to your table. We were about to eat inside their patio while it was a little chilly, but some indoor booths opened up for us. We both got the bacon burrito ($14). This is a large breakfast burrito with chopped bacon, two scrambled eggs, hash browns, and cheese wrapped in a flour tortilla. You can pick either red or green salsa. I liked the green salsa as it had a good balance of spice and flavor. The burrito has a lot of hash browns, which can overpower the overall flavor and other ingredients. The breakfast burrito seemed a little pricy, but the portion size made up for it. I even took a small remnant of leftovers home.
