I searched Yelp for a midway point between Riverside and HB to meet my son …read more It's been awhile since we had deli sandwiches and Board and Brew had great reviews. The food was excellent, I ordered the Baja chicken wrap- full of flavor and packed with protein. My husband ordered the Cobb salad which he said was good too. Generous amounts of chicken and very nice presentation. The place is super cute, it has a bar with beer, it also has a very nice patio area. Outside is very dog friendly, they even brought out a couple of water bowls for the dogs. Definitely recommend the place, staff was very prompt and courteous. Thanks Yelp for a great find!

It seems like Board & Brew has been around forever, yet I'd never been, so when a friend suggested…read morewe meet there for lunch I figured it was about time I check the place out. There is an ample amount of outdoor seating and there's also plenty of seating inside. It's a very laid back kind of environment, definitely giving off beach day vibes. The food menu is up on the wall as you come in. Orders are placed at the counter and brought to your table when it's ready. When we arrived at 11AM there was plenty of open seating and only one other person placing an order. But by the time we were leaving tho, the place was PACKED! Every table both inside and outside was occupied. I would have never imagined Board & Brew was THIS popular! Ordering was quick and easy and our orders came up pretty quickly. Both the cashier and person who bought us our food were friendly and efficient. My friend and I both ordered the Beef Dip sandwich. Somehow I've managed to go through life with never having tried horseradish, so I requested that it came on the side. Okay, well, I was NOT expecting the heat to go right up to my nose ~ phew!! Even so, it went really well with the beef dip. The roll itself was crunch yet fluffy in all the right places. As is, I would have preferred it to have more beef, but as a whole it was still pretty tasty. Perhaps next time I'll see about getting extra meat. So now I know why they've been around forever. The vibe is easy going, the service is on point, and the food is very good.

Man, shoutout to Board & Brew because they completely changed the way I look at sandwiches. Growing…read moreup, I was never really a huge sandwich person. My mom usually made the classic ham and cheese or turkey and cheese, so sandwiches never felt like something I got overly excited about. Then I tried the Turkado, and honestly... I get it now. That sandwich was packed with flavor and had the perfect balance of turkey, lettuce, and that signature sauce. I don't know what exactly is in that sauce, but do they share the recipe? Because there's something about it that makes the sandwich special. It ties everything together perfectly. I also tried the Baja Chicken, and this one honestly proved me wrong. I've never been the biggest fan of chicken sandwiches on that type of bread, but Board & Brew made me question that entire opinion because this sandwich was magnificent. Flavorful, satisfying, and way better than I expected. Now I'm sitting here realizing I probably need to work my way through the rest of the menu because there are still several sandwiches I haven't tried. Board & Brew might have officially turned me into a sandwich guy, and I honestly didn't see that coming.

They also serve canned white/red wine which surprisingly tasted good! Their beer is legit as well. Hubby & I have only tried their sandwiches & ALL of them (Turk ado, turkey club, California delight, prime dip) tasted solid. This one in the photo (Tom's choice) is what we recently had. My favorite is the California delight. Their portion is big so we just order one sandwich & split it in half. Service is friendly & great.

Sandwiches and salads were both generous, with the usual expected items and a few twists thrown in, like sunflower seeds that were a nice plus on a turkey sandwich.

We would definitely consider coming back if we're in the area again.

Well, that's the case here because I have patronized this location several times and been very happy with the free quality, the speed of service and frontlines of the staff. Their sandwiches are fantastic. I cannot see how their ingredients could get any fresh. There is special sandwich sauce is amazing. You could put that stuff on just about anything so I always make sure to get a couple of extra.

The Baja Chicken Sandwich was my favorite of all 3 and they were all presented nicely. The Baja Beef was in desperate need of that sauce that was given to the Baja chicken sandwich and wrap since it doesn't really have much inside outside of onions a beef (don't get me wrong, I appreciate the amount of protein), but it did lack other flavors or freshness from other veggies. The place itself was pretty clean and it was nice that they offered a variety of beers and a TV for some patrons to watch sports. Definitely a step up from a typical sandwich shop chain.

I was deciding on where to snag lunch on my way to another store doing my rounds and I really wanted a sandwich. I decided to get the Turkado, some dirty Maui chips and drink. The total came to $17 and some change, not bad about the avg for the area and any lunch. The service was great, the woman who helped me was nice, and efficient, she helped me select what chips to get. Not much bantering but I do enough of that at work, so all good here. The store was clean, nice vibe, music. My order was ready in the time it took me to fill my soda cup and sit down to scroll 1 scroll thru outlook emails. Maybe 5-7 mins the woman who gave me my order asked if I wanted some secret sauce on the side, and put it in the bag. The bag felt heavy! The sub was huge! Probably 8inches bread was nice and springy, there was enough lettuce, tomato and sauces on it. I love the sunflower seeds, gives it a nice little crunch. The meat is more of a very thin piled high but there is a lot of it! I like how the sub is assembled meat, cheese, toppings sauce, it seems to hold together nicely.

This review covers my experience across multiple locations, including Harbor Boulevard in Costa…read moreMesa and Beach Boulevard in Huntington Beach. When I first started coming to Board and Brew, I would have given it a solid five stars, but my perspective has shifted after six years of exploring other local options in the county. The Evolution of the Experience: * Ingredients: While the food is definitely better than a pre-made deli sandwich from a grocery store, it isn't exactly top-tier. The bread and meat are good, but as you try more specialized places, you realize these are fairly standard. * The Famous Sauce: Their signature sauce is tasty, but it feels like it contains a high amount of monosodium glutamate (MSG). MSG is a neuro-exciter that can make people feel overstimulated or unwell after eating it, and it feels particularly intense in this recipe. * Consistency: Both the Huntington Beach and Costa Mesa locations were great initially, but they now feel more like a solid, middle-of-the-road option. The Best Use Case: * Catering & Events: Even with a three-star rating, this is absolutely the place I would go if I needed catering for a birthday party or a large event. Their pricing and preparation for bulk orders are hard to beat. Final Thoughts: If Yelp allowed half-stars, I'd probably give this a 3.5. It's a reliable, solid sandwich shop, but the ingredient quality and the intensity of the MSG in the sauce keep it from being a five-star favorite for me anymore. Edit: The owner replied to my comment about how their food is high quality, but 6 years of taste testing says otherwise. While you may not add pure MSG crystals to your sauce, it still contains MSG.It is misleading to claim "No MSG" or "High Quality" when the sauce relies on ingredients that are chemically identical to it. For instance: Tomatoes and Tomato Paste: These are among the highest natural sources of free glutamate. If the recipe uses tomato paste--as many copycats do--it will test positive for MSG. Soy Sauce & Worcestershire Sauce: Both frequently cited in recipes for this sauce, these contain naturally occurring MSG through fermentation or hydrolysis. Nutritional Yeast: Often used to provide a savory flavor, it naturally contains high levels of glutamate.Hydrolyzed Proteins: Ingredients like "hydrolyzed vegetable protein" (HVP) or "yeast extract" are processed specifically to release glutamates. Legally, a company might say they "don't use MSG" if they don't add the pure additive, but that is a technicality. MSG is linked to various health issues for sensitive individuals, and just because many consider it "safe" doesn't mean it's healthy or non-harmful. If the food is truly "high quality," why rely on these additives to create flavor? Best Wishes

In no way are those French baguettes. It's just a soft spongy roll. Nothing baguette about it. Not like it's just a bad baguette. It's just purposeful false advertising and misleading. I got the California Delight mainly because the photo and the description said it has sprouts in it. No sprouts were found in my sandwich. Their secret sauce is pretty good at kicking up an otherwise decent sandwich. As another reviewer mentioned, the lady taking my order was not friendly and socially awkward in a rude way. Chips and drink don't come as a combo, so expect to pay $6 dollars to make it a meal. That's a big difference for a $11 sandwich. Friday noon, and most customers had beers with their lunch.
