PBJ.LA

Stop #2 at Grand Central Market was this PB&J shop. It looked really interesting, but no one was around to order. Luckily after 10 minutes or so, someone came back. We got two PB&J's: - Indian - Elvis with Marshmallow Fluff They serve them uncrustable style which I wasn't really a fan of. I'd rather have a normal sandwich. That being said, the Indian PB&J was uniquely delicious. The cashew butter with curry flavor knocked it out of the park. The Elvis tasted like a normal PB&J to me. We couldn't really find much marshmallow fluff so that didn't seem worth the addition. It might seem weird, but I think this unique shop is worth a stop!

I must admit, I like the fact that all the ingredients are locally made with organic ingredients. But this one was not for me. Ordered an Old School which unfortunately had to ask for a different jam as it was made with strawberries and it is the one thing I do not eat. A $5.50 sandwich as specified in their menu turned out to be almost $9, I assume because they had to use a different jam (blueberry) and I was offered the option to have it toasted. Flavor wise, not impressed and did not meet that expectation of bringing back those childhood memories. Definitely would give it another try.

Not a bad place to go to get a unique twist on the classic Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwich. Was recommended the Red Eye (for coffee lovers) and the Old Fashioned. The combination of flavors is decent but it definitely felt a little overpriced. Would recommend to other people but would warn them about the price.

Definitely a twist on the old pb and j, I think it's a little over priced. Staff was super friendly, the place in general really crowded for a Wednesday. Definitely not my type of flavors, I ordered the Indian son ordered the red paid a little over $26 for 2 sandwiches and 2 milks.

Really great concept and place! I got the Ol’ Fashioned, which has pecan butter and it was fantastic. At first, I would have given a lower rating because I placed an order and they basically forgot about my order. I was waiting for a while and noticed that the people after me had not only gotten their sandwich, but finished eating it too. So I went up to the cashier and asked if my order was ready. In a panic he realized they had forgotten about it. I was pretty disappointed. Moments later, the worker (manager?) handed me and my friend two free almond milk drinks to compensate for the mistake. That definitely made up for it and shows that they have a good business model. Will definitely come back next time I am in LA!

I first laughed at the thought of gourmet PBJ, and figured that I had to try it cause I LOVE PBJ. The guy lured me in by telling me that I should try the samples, their whole menu is sample-able, haha. They average in about $7.50 for a PBJ, but it's definitely worth it because of the material they use to make the PBJ. I liked their Chocolate Haze and Old Fashion. The Old Fashion had a pretty strong taste of the orange zest but I was craving chocolate more, so I went with that one. Watching them make the PBJ was pretty satisfying itself! He created it so delicately and used the IG worthy presser to seal the deal. I asked for the PBJ to be toasted so that the jam would melt more. The first bite was amazing! The dark cherry jam and the chocolate really tasted amazing together, the guy who created this is an amazing chef. I was really full from the PBJ and didn't end up getting any other meal. If you're looking to eat here, I would recommend eating a very light dinner or just come here mid day as a mid day snack. They also had a few drink options but it tasted a little watered down to me. Sticking to the PBJ

High quality ingredients and great service. Try a sample of the filling before you decide which one to get! I recommend the Old Fashioned.

It was great to see that this place uses coconut sugar and the menu offers very nice variety of pb sandwiches, but...but I d like to emerge a hygienic habits of the staff. The girl was a very nice person, but she didn't change her gloves walking from cash desk to the corner where she was going to make my sandwich, with the same gloves she took a piece of bread and started to make it without any hesitation. Then other customer comes in the middle of this process. She comes to them and press the button on display, touches the screen with the same gloves. Then she turns back to make another sandwich meanwhile mine is toasting, then something falls on the floor and she picks it up with the same gloves. Then she hands me my sandwich...I didn't eat the outside bread and just ate the banana jam with peanut butter and chocolate chips ('Elvis' filling). It was not bad but I've totally refused to eat the bread because of the past events. That's not okay and I think should be addressed. So please, tell the staff there and pressure them to change their habits because their gloves are not for them or the fashion but for our food. I d gladly come back if this was changed. But till then I am not feeling safe to eat there...
