Fast Food Restaurants near Aptos

“It's an old fashioned burger joint right by the beach. For some it is a traditional stop when leaving the nearby beach.“

“Fabulous donuts. There’s a reason this place has been around for so long. My wife and I have passed this shop many times and never went in until today and we have been missing out! The interior is a fun retro feel with a down to earth atmosphere. Vicky was so incredibly nice and made the experience. We will be coming back soon!“

“i went into today with my friend and while we were ordering our sandwiches, my friend had said something wrong so we laughed and he had asked, “why are you guys laughing?” and we told him it wasn’t because of him but then when i went to order my sandwich he asked what’s so funny so i was like nothing so he called us brats , this location is good just not this worker.“

“This food taco truck serves up a taco fiesta with excellent home made tacos, chips and more using abukea's (grandmas recipes). We tried delicious chicken tacos, fish tacos, crispy tacos, refried beans obviously slo cooked. And crispy flour tortilla chips. Excellent chunky guacamole
Great service and we enjoyed out meals with a guava Jarritos soda. We sat under an umbrella at an out door picnic table.
Accessible parking next to truck.“

“We came in on a Sunday morning, and this place was very busy. The nice young guy behind the counter was patient and sweet to everybody even though he was working alone and getting slammed. The food was good and the coffee was hot. Props to that guy for holding it down!“

“The only Five Guys in Santa Cruz since the one at the Capitola Mall shut down, with your standard Five Guys experience. The fries are good and plentiful, and the burgers are delicious with whatever vegetables you want on top. There's other options as well such as a vegetarian sandwich and hot dogs.“

“I stopped by La Buena Taqueria and was not disappointed! I got the al pastor torta, and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly seasoned meat, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of crunch from the bread. The service was great, and the chips and salsa are a must—fresh, flavorful, and addictive!

I knew this place was going to be good as soon as I walked in and heard Maná playing. 🎶 Next time, I’ll definitely be trying the tacos!

If you’re looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food, this spot is a winner. 🌮🔥“

“LOVE THIS TACO BELL! My absolute favorite I've ever been too. The food is consistently fresh and tasty and it is easy to eat vegetarian. The staff is super friendly, which is an added bonus. The dining room is clean, though it gets more crowded as the night goes on as this is the one place in Santa Cruz that is open after 10 pm onwards to midnight (it is really also good!) And it's one of the few affordable restaurants worth eating at, period.“

“Great food, great location, great host. Happy to see a local business succeed.“

“This place may technically a fast food place, but it more has the atmosphere and menu of a 50's diner down to 50's and 60's music playing. They have a great kids' menu that has everything from burgers to corn dogs and even grilled cheese for only $8. They have a huge menu,too, including a veggie burger!“

“This was a surprising treat. It's corn dogs rolled in stuff like hot Cheetos, etc. They put liquid gold AKA cheddar cheese in between the hotdog and the corn meal batter 😋😋😋 the boxes they come in have slits on the end so that you can put the corn dog back in the box after a bite and the stick can be pulled away from the corn dog for your next bite. This is like, carnival food/comfort food/movie snack/food truck food. Will definitely be back.

The only thing is I was not full afterwards. If I were younger I'd make a meal out of like 4 of these in a row.“

“Burger King Just Changed My Life (For $4.99?!)

I wasn’t even in the mood for fast food—just wanted something quick and reliable. I walked into Burger King expecting “meh” and walked out rethinking everything I knew about burgers.

That Bacon Melt Double Patty Burger for $4.99? Spiritual awakening.
Double patty, crispy bacon, Swiss cheese, lettuce, mayo, ketchup—every bite hit like a choir of flavor angels in my mouth.

Customizing it on their touchscreen? Effortless. I felt like a sleep-deprived burger scientist building a masterpiece. Even with the lunch crowd, the vibe was chill, and the wait was short. And then… BOOM. First bite? Life. Changed.

And yes, the water was absurdly good. Ice cold. Crisp. Like it had been blessed by mountain monks. I half expected a wise old trout to rise from the cup and hand me a prophecy.

6 out of 5 stars. If you walk in and don’t order this burger? Buddy… rethink your life.“

“Delfina served us in the drive thru and gave us first class customer service with a smile , eye contact and invited us back . The food was fresh (hot) and actually looked like the pictures advertised.My husband and I couldn’t help but drive back thru the drive thru to Thank her and the cooks for their first class service. Best service we’ve had in a long time .“

“I know it's a chain, but every time I walk into a Jersey Mike's, I'm greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff who are in a good mood, and seem happy to help me. The food is always fresh and delicious, and I walk out feeling a little bit better about my day than when I walked in. Smiles and good humor are nourishment too.“

“My family and I recently went to the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk and we ate lunch here. I had a corn dog and a few garlic fries! Both were delicious but if you don’t like a lot of garlic I would recommend not to order the garlic fries because they are loaded with garlic! Garlic lovers will find them perfect for a snack though!
I’d definitely eat here again!“

“New cantina menu is pretty bomb, I love the avocado salsa, especially the packaging. Great example of corporate marketing/new ideas and having a store capable of executing! Only thing is I wish the cantina chicken quesadilla was a little bigger but that's my stomach talking“

“This is by far my favorite place to get food. I usually get the char meal or the sourdough sandwich. The shakes here have to be one of the best I've ever tasted, their fries are delicious and consistent the burgers are phenomenal and I don't even get food anywhere else anymore this place is just that good.“

“The price has tripled food and service is great but not for what you get $8.99 for three wings two sides no drink I'm sure you get a bucket for $20 but its legs and thighs

Parking: 41st avenue Santa Cruz California 95062

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Those highschoolers running this joint, put their foot in this burger! I rarely ever give out five star reviews to fast food chains, but this western bacon cheeseburger was smackin! 🍔 🍟 10 out of 10. The bad reviews must’ve forgot to order the western bacon cheeseburger.“

“su atención al cliente y su rapidez para servir“

“It was a good idea having KFC and A&W combined. I enjoyed having the choice between the two places or a little of both. I went with three chicken strips and a double cheeseburger combo. Both were hot and seemed really fresh. The chicken was super tender and the burger had a great flavor. The fries were also some of the best I've had in a while. They had a little seasoning on them which tasted really good. The restaurant doesn't have a lot of places to sit but even to go would be a great option. Definitely worth a try.“

“Great first job! Made life long friends. Great for students who need a flexible schedule.“
