28 Best 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 was on a lunch break from work today, my route was in Santa Cruz and asked google for the nearest Taco Spot. It recommended me this place. Very nice corner spot and great seating area. I ordered 1 Al Pastor taco and 1 asada quesadilla just to try out the food quality. Honestly the meat was absolutely delicious!!!! Their meat is very well seasoned and the tortilla for my taco is made by hand or how we say in Spanish “Tortillas hechas a mano.” Absolutely fire 🔥 Told the owner “Memo” that his food was absolutely delicious 🤤 and definitely coming back for more when I’m in the area next time! Definitely worth the money if you want quality tacos & burritos, and no more
Taco Bell for me 🙅‍♂️ hahahaha“

“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!“

“My son recommended this place and oh-my-gosh, what a good place it is. I had a birria super burrito and it was one of the best I've ever had. And I really enjoyed the fact that we could also get good fries! And a corn dog - crazy! The interior is very generic so just come for the food!“

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

“We have been consistently catering food and items from taco bell and they have been amazing at delivering every time! We usually order hundreds of dollars of taco bell for our events and each time the food is impeccably delicious and comes with every need provided such as straws, napkins, and organization! Thank you so much to the staff here for always killing it!“

“Food pricing is gotten out of budget. Tried to alert them that their bathroom is out of compliance and they didn't seem to understand. The food was good and hot. They weren't going to give me any numbers to call for it so I will be forcer to seek further action thru the courts“

“Pretty good food but wow was it expensive..I was not expecting that. I bought food for my wife and 2 little kids and it was $55. I didn't even order for myself, otherwise it would have been nearly $70. Not exactly fast food prices, but they do give you ALOT of fries so that was nice.“

“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.“

“幾個年輕有為的年輕人用理想來經營的用餐環境，大大推薦“

“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 .“

“If you want a sub or hoagie, whatever you may call it, I think this is the best place in town. Perfectly toasted and very warm, with lots of meat and cheese for sure. Subway subs don't even come close to this level of quality. Gotta try it at least once.“

“The Capitola location provides generous portions of food that is always fresh and hot. You can't beat their $7 meal deal available on the app, which includes a burger, fries, and a sundae for such a low price. Additionally, the service is excellent. I would give them five stars!“

“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!“

“11 pm, store was nice and clean. Multiple people taking out. I also ordered take out from the cashier my order came out in like 5-7 minutes. Ordered 2x mex pizza and fries special. Fries was delicious, pizza was good as well. Price was reasonable.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The bathrooms are clean and the air-conditioning was strong. I was also impressed with how quickly they came to the register to accept my cash. I have noticed that most fast food restaurants are very slow to come to the register ever since the self-order kiosks took over. Not everyone has a bank account (I do, but I'm making a point.)“

“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!“

“get the #9, you wont regret it and if you're there on a day they have mushroom brie soup, grab one of those too!“

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

“I’ve been going to this Jack in the box for probably 10 years now? Having lived in Santa Cruz, for a portion of those years. I would specifically drive the extra 5 minutes to this Jb, instead of the one in Santa Cruz. The food is on par, the drive thru staff is friendly, the establishment is well kept, and I’ve never had a bad eating incident. I will be going sometime this week, for the Gremlins promo. Hopefully it’s as good as always!“

“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.“

“Fast And Cleanliness. Food Is Hot When They Hand It To You.“

“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
