BJs Restaurant and Brewery

It was 1978 when two guys who had a great recipe for deep dish pizza opened the first BJ's in Santa Ana, California. The pizza was an immediate hit and, as years went by, new BJ's restaurants were opened in beach cities along Southern California's coastline. In 1996, with seven restaurants in operation from San Diego to Los Angeles, the first BJ's brewery began production in our new restaurant in Brea, California. The introduction of fine handcrafted beer was welcomed by guests and the newly renamed BJ's Restaurant & Brewery concept was launched. New menu items and new beers have been added through the years as the BJ's brand has expanded across the U.S.

Our passionate desire to provide extraordinary value for our guests in a high-energy, fun, child-friendly environment, along with a sincere commitment to support the communities in which we do business, goes to the heart of what differentiates BJ's from other restaurants. It is because of you, our guests, that we have been able to realize a dream and create the company and culture that thrives today. Thank you for being the biggest and most important part of what keeps our dreams alive!
