Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

Hornero abre sus puertas en Tijuana el 12 de febrero del 2009 bajo la idea de adaptar el estilo de hacer pizzas más antiguo (el Napolitano), al paladar tijuanense. Por eso Hornero ofrece más de dos docenas de pizzas diferentes en su menú, desde la clásica Margarita hasta innovadoras combinaciones, como la pizza de Camarones Enchilados o la de Mole Poblano. En el 2011, a pedido de nuestros clientes expandimos nuestro menú, agregando carnes y pescados, logrando uno de los menús más extensos de la ciudad. Cuidamos siempre la calidad y frescura de nuestros ingredientes, que resultan en el inigualable sabor de nuestros platillos. Combinando lo anterior con la atención personalizada, un ambiente acogedor y un precio justo, en Hornero vivirás una experiencia culinaria única.
