Board & Brew
Franchise Overview
This franchise concept centers on high-quality sandwiches, salads, wraps, and craft beer served in a casual, locally flavored environment. Founded in 1979, it built a cult following before opening franchising opportunities. Franchisees benefit from a proven menu anchored by a signature secret sauce and a strong brand identity that blends laid-back West Coast culture with a commitment to fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Each location is encouraged to reflect its own community character while staying true to core brand standards. The franchise model includes ongoing operational oversight, supply chain guidance emphasizing local sourcing, and brand support across marketing and social media. The target customer is a food-curious, casual dining guest who values quality ingredients and an authentic neighborhood vibe.
Franchisees are selected for their people skills and passion for hospitality. The brand is actively seeking franchisees in select markets, noting that Southern California is currently at capacity.
