We were out for a little beach stroll and stumbled across this little food place and had to try ! Great fast service and the food was really tasty ! Great views of the beach on a beautiful day! They have a variety of food and ice cream. !

Pipeline is a shack right off the boardwalk. Very friendly folks - enough that they directed us elsewhere for a better burger. Menu is pretty decent for a smaller hut.

Pipeline is a gem in Newport Beach! The service is impressively fast, and its convenient location makes it perfect for a quick bite. The food is what really shines though. From their juicy, flavorful burgers to their crisp, fresh salads, there's something for everyone. The milkshakes are to delicious, rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Whether you're craving something savory or a sweet treat, Pipeline has you covered. With easy ordering and consistent quality, it's a must-visit!

Ah Pipeline, a Balboa classic where drunk people congregate and the food is mediocre (except for the soft serve) which was great! Service was okay and was quick, although my burger took a while to come out and it was okay at best too. $8 was wasted that night. Won't be back here but it's worth checking out.

Food was good and service was great. However, I observed a female with glasses who seemed to be the manager interacting with an employee, and there attitude was less then ideal. While they seemed knowledgeable about what the employee was saying, their tone came off as dismissive and impatient. The managers lack of empathy and understanding towards their coworkers concerns created a tense atmosphere.

Pipeline is a great beach food snack shack for all your beachy cravings. Onion rings are light and crispy and the better option than the fries. Service was super friendly and love that they take Apple Pay! So convenient. Would come back again.

Eh, okay. I wanted fish and chips. We were at the pier. The boyfriend thought I'd choose a sit-down dining option. After 2 hours of whale-watching, I just wanted some grub and a nap. Enter Pipeline.I may opt not to do it again, but their cod was good. The onion rings are better than the fries.Service was notable. Great location--when it's warm enough to sit on the picnic benches.

Ordered chicken fingers and double cheeseburger. The chicken fingers looked and tasted like they were fried a few days earlier and the burger was questionable whether it was actually beef. Might be worth checking out for ice cream only, but not lunch.
