Board & Brew - Del Mar

Good sandwich store. There are several places, but my favorite is in Del Mar. It feels really laid back. The style is extremely Californian. It has the vibe of a sandwich shop on the beach straight out of a movie. It's the ideal informal get-together for lunch or an outing with pals. Everything that I've ordered from them has lived up to my expectations. Their sandwiches taste incredibly good and are healthier, which is something I really like. In addition, the sandwiches are great for taking on the move! They don't become drenched.When I was there last, I ordered the Turkado, which is a turkey sandwich. I asked for it without mayo, and it was actually pretty good! It was already loaded with avocado and taste! Another one of my favorites is the baja wrap, which is a wrap with avocado and marinated chicken. I've tried Turkey Deluxe and California Delight among other turkey sandwiches, and they were pretty good! I haven't tried any sandwiches with bacon because I detest the stuff and think it takes away a lot of the flavor that is intended for the sandwich combo.

I visited Board & Brew in Del Mar yesterday at around 3:00 p.m., and unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. The individual at the cashier, whose name I did not get, appeared to be under the influence of a stimulant. His behavior was erratic and unprofessional, as he rudely yelled at us while taking our order.Despite knowing what we wanted and trying to place our order quickly, he barely allowed us to speak or even think. The experience was incredibly rushed and startling, making us feel extremely uncomfortable. This is by far the worst customer service I have ever encountered at a restaurant. I did not receive a receipt, which further adds to my dissatisfaction.Board & Brew typically has a great reputation, but this visit was a significant disappointment. Customer service is a crucial part of the dining experience, and this was severely lacking. I hope the management addresses this issue promptly to prevent other customers from having a similar experience.

Eating a late lunch today is like experiencing the perfect summer day in Del Mar/San Diego. Cool music playing just the right amount of decibels; not too crowded; friendly and knowledgeable staff; wood ceiling planks and fans reminding me of the South Pacific; stickers plastered on one wall and loving the surf board displaying the name of this place on another wall..easy hang out. Sandwich -tub of tuna, excellent serving size for the price and mighty tasty. Got mine minus the tomato . My kids have been coming to this place since middle school and now they are young adults . This place is ageless. Happiness. Love.

Great sandwich spot! The food was tasty, the beer was frosty and the vibes were excellent!

You know how they say a ham and cheese sandwich on wonder bread hits different after being in the pool? Well this is the upgrade- after the beach go get a sandwich here. Their house sauce (not pictured) was so delicious and amazing. It was the ideal meal after a long day at the beach. I'm knocking a star because I didn't feel very welcomed there as someone out of town and felt very rushed, luckily I got a crowd favorite. I also wish they were open later. Overall the ideal beach sandwich!!

Del Mar is a perfect place to spend a sunny day. After a night in Del Mar, we stopped by board n brew for brunch. It's been a good 5 years since I've been here and I totally forgot how affordable and refreshing these sandwiches are. I looked up how to make a copycat sauce and will be trying it out ASAP. I couldn't remember what my usual order was until I got it and realized the turkey was a bit salty for me. I got the California delight, but what I really love is the vegi supreme. I love the sprouts and avocado and special sauce combination. Love the no frill service with to-go style lunch bags. There's not a whole lot of seating in the back patio and front area but turnaround time is quick with sandwiches.

The Turkado (toasted) is hands down the best sandwich!!! Service was great and the special orange sauce offered to us to try was so nice with the sandwich. The Italian sub was just okay - the cured meat was too salty for me and the bread didn't hit the same way as the other sandwich. I would 1000% get another Turkado next time!

Great service, great food, great atmosphere! The food was 10/10, service was 9/10, and atmosphere was 9.5/10. I like how the cashier moved the line very quickly we waited less than 5 min. with around 20 people in front of us, and all the employees who call out the orders and take the phone orders are very helpful. The young lady who answered my phone gave me by far the best service. She was outstanding I think her name was Carmen. Bathrooms and some tables could've been cleaner but overall I'd give it 10/10!!!

First time at this location. The cashier said "do you want everything on it." I said, "No avocado, I am allergic". I don't live around here and am just down to go to the beach. I just opened it and to my surprise, AVOCADO! This has put a damper on my great day. I would give any restaurant a -5 stars for this.

If you're considering a visit to the Board and Brew in Del Mar, let me save you the trouble: **DON'T.** My experiences at this location have been consistently dreadful, and my most recent visit was the final straw.Every time I walk into this location, I'm met with the owner's relentless pressure to pay in cash. At every other Board and Brew in San Diego--Del Sur, Pacific Beach, Mira Mesa--you can choose to pay with cash or card. But not here. The owner often claims the card machine is "broken" until you insist on using your card, at which point it mysteriously starts working again. It's incredibly frustrating.Then there's the absurdity of their sandwich policy. At every other Board and Brew, you can order a half sandwich on French bread. But not in Del Mar! The owner's son even had the audacity to tell me, "Board & Brew doesn't sell half sandwiches." This blatant misinformation is unacceptable-- every other location can do this, why can't you?During my most recent visit, I requested extra sauce on the side. The Board & Brew sauce is the only reason I bother eating their sandwiches! When I asked for three sauces instead of the usual two, I was told, "Actually, two sauces is our maximum." I couldn't believe it-- considering the person before me, as well as the person after me were offered 2-3 sauces, per sandwich.So, if you value your time and money, do yourself a favor and skip the Board and Brew in Del Mar. Save your appetite for a location that knows how to treat its customers right. I know I will!
