The BJ’s beers are offered, of course, but are no longer brewed at this particular location. This is, unfortunately, the case for just about all BJ’s restaurants. They also offer some other craft and import beers, along with a couple ciders. The beers range from pretty bad to fairly decent. All in all, they’re fairly average beers that appeal to just about any beer drinker. I did not have food on this particular instance, partially because I already know that I’m not the biggest fan of BJ’s food. The service was quick and friendly, and I was checked on several times during my stay at the bar--always appreciated. Although it’s not my favorite place, I wouldn’t outright object to coming back here.

This place is getting to big to stay good. Beers are just ok. It’s been a long time since they had a regular medal count for beers.Maybe they are too busy brewing beer for their "cookie cutter units" that don’t actually brew. Pass this one up for Taps if you are in the Brea area.

Lively atmosphere, friendly staff. Sample set for BJ’s beer was generous, beers were just OK. Some better than avg, some below avg, and they seem to understand brewing’s not their strong suit- focus is on guest taps and bottles. On-site brewery is obviously non-functional. Server was clueless when asked who brews BJ’s beer. Friendly and bland- like Applebee’s with better beer

Try their seasonal brew "Grand Cru" every November. Its like a Chimay on a budget in a delicious way. The rest of their beers are really aimed at being crowd pleasers -- I’m not interested.

I’ve been here twice, but it’s been a few years. I remember them having a few more taps than you’d find at other locations and the beer quality is pretty good. I often overlook BJs when I’m in California because of all the other great beer around, but I have yet to have an infected or undrinkable beer from them. A good place to go and watch a ballgame and have a bite to eat with a craft beer.

Nice place, a typical BJs-chain brewpub. Had a nice cute little server named Bonnie. Selection wasn’t too bad, have a couple of guest taps that usually are decent. Had a more lively feel than some other brewpubs, up to you whether thats a good or bad thing.

Well placed, part of the Brea mall, right off the the 57 not far from Anaheim, Santa Ana. 2 seasonals in addition to the regular line up, they also have the monthly beer appreciation night. Good deal on happy hour, good apps, same menu as other BJ’s. Lively place.

Same as the other BJ’s except this is a brewing location. You’ll have a better chance at finding seasonals here.

Great Happy Hour. BJ’s seems to be the CSU Fullerton hang out, which can make for a pretty lively evening. The artichoke spinach pizza is fantastic and the jeremiah red is great. Their Hef is a pretty tasty american brew also. The service could be better. They always seem like they are understaffed every time I go. Not as good as Taps, but they are a pretty good chain restaurant/brewery.
