PBJ.LA
317 South Broadway
Los Angeles, CA 90013
Los Angeles restaurateur Adam Fleischman’s PBJ.LA serves futuristic 100% plant-based takes on the lunchbox classic.

Everyone knows that the perfect pairing to a PB&J is a tall, cold glass of milk, and PBJ.LA is no exception: almond milks flavored with lavender, Peruvian cacao, and strawberry are served alongside the sandwiches. PBJ.LA is located inside of LA’s Grand Central Market.
