BJ’s Restaurants, Inc. currently owns and operates 87 casual dining restaurants under the BJ's Restaurant & Brewery, BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse or BJ's Pizza & Grill brand names in the United States of America. The Company operates several microbreweries which produce and distribute BJ's handcrafted beers throughout the chain.

Jeremiah Red is one of the top selling beers because of its high alcohol content. This beer is often given to unhappy guest who did not enjoy their meal to encourage them to come back and give the food a second chance. It was 1978 when two guys who had a great recipe for deep dish pizza opened the first BJ’s Chicago Pizzeria 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 the Southern California coastline. In 1996, with seven restaurants in operation from San Diego to Los Angeles, the first BJ’s brewery began production in a new restaurant in Brea, California. 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.
