The Pizookie is BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse's signature dessert and most famous menu item. It's a deep-dish cookie baked in the same personal cast-iron-style pan used for BJ's individual pizzas, intentionally underbaked to leave the center warm and gooey, then topped with two scoops of vanilla ice cream at the moment of service. The name is a portmanteau of 'pizza' and 'cookie.' BJ's introduced the Pizookie format in the late 1980s/early 1990s and it became the chain's primary dessert identity and a widely imitated concept across casual dining. It's available in multiple flavors including Chocolate Chip (the original and most popular), Snickerdoodle, White Chocolate Macadamia, S'mores and rotating seasonal variants.

Yes — BJ's is a genuine brewpub, and house-brewed craft beer is one of its defining features. BJ's brews a year-round lineup of flagship beers at each brewpub location including the BJ's Harvest Hefeweizen, BJ's Jeremiah Red Ale, BJ's Piranha Pale Ale, BJ's Hopstorm IPA and BJ's Oasis Amber. Seasonal and limited beers rotate throughout the year. A pint is $6.99 and a four-pour flight (4 × 5 oz) is $9.99. BJ's also brews a popular handcrafted root beer ($3.99) as a non-alcoholic house beverage. Beer styles, availability and tap lists vary by location; some BJ's units without full brewing equipment serve BJ's beers sourced from central production facilities.

BJ's Prime Rib ($32.99) is a slow-roasted, hand-carved prime rib served with au jus, creamy horseradish and choice of two sides — including garlic mashed potatoes, the most popular pairing. It's only available on Fridays and Saturdays and sells out regularly at high-volume locations. BJ's prime rib has been a loyal-guest driver for decades — it's the most-anticipated weekly item on the menu and the reason many regulars plan their visits specifically around the weekend. Arrive by 7pm at busy locations to secure an order. No reservations are needed but the prime rib is first-come, first-served.

BJ's personal deep-dish pizzas (individual size) are $12.99–$14.99 depending on toppings — the Cheese Deep Dish is $12.99, Pepperoni is $14.99. The medium 8-slice deep-dish is $22.99. BJ's deep-dish is Sicilian-influenced with a thick pan crust, distinct from Chicago-style deep dish. Thin-crust pizzas in the personal size run $13.99–$16.99 depending on the build. The California Club thin crust ($16.99) is the premium option. Gluten-free crust is available at most locations for a small upcharge.
