What People Are Saying About Peanut Butter & Co
Featured Review

The Scene – If the whiff of homemade peanut butter doesn't grip you, then butter-yellow walls lined with vintage tins and classic ads for Sunbeam bread and Welch's jam are bound to make you feel good. Aside from a milk selection that includes soy, rice and Lactaid, the novelty rings true. Kids, parents and everyone in between appreciate the old-fashioned sandwiches served with a pile of chips and carrot sticks. – – The Food – Though the "Elvis"--grilled peanut butter, honey, bananas and bacon--reigns king, many of the sandwiches on the menu are sweeter compositions.…

Nostalgic Peanut Butter Maker Like Breakfast at Grandma's
by Janie Ho
A small nostalgic breakfast nook amidst NYU/Village madness, Peanut Butter & Co is adorned with wooden tables and peanut butter. Menu is mixed with throwback PB sandwiches--those that you hoped to find in your lunch box--and lunch staples like turkey or ham. The real jam is in its peanut butter, with homemade jars in white or dark chocolate, spicy, and maple syrup available to go for just $5 or $6.
The friendly staff, paraphernalia-like post cards, stuffed monkeys, and of course, peanut butter jars make PB & Co like the sweet-themed souvenir shops of Times Square, only a thousand times smaller with a down home feel.
- Pros: Cute Feel, To-Die-For Jars To Go, Variety
- Cons: Bit Small, Warm. Bit Pricey Sandwiches for Freakin' Peanut B
Child's Play Good Enough For Adults

Peanut butter in many varities, you say? I love it. Sandwiches here are served old school style, with carrot sticks and a bag of chips. You can even opt to have the crusts cut off your bread!
Located in Greenwich Village, this little store is always packed, and for good reason. If you are a peanut butter "nut" (ha ha) you may be adventurous and try the PB BLT (highly recommeded). Staples like the Fluffernutter are on the menu, of course, along with grilled cheese and tuna sandwiches for our friends with nut-allergies. Although, I'm not sure you would even venture into this store if you had a nut allergy...
For what you are getting, the price is slightly outrageous. Though, it is a real treat and the sandwiches are huge. Needless to say it is pretty kid-friendly so be prepared for many strollers, toddlers, etc. packed into a small space.
- Pros: Variety of PB sandwich options
- Cons: Small space
Ridiculous Prices and Poor Service
by hypatia1
Honestly, the headline says it all. They charge you the price of two containers of grocery store bought jelly and a loaf of bread for a kid to throw it carelessly together for you. Heaven forbid you'd rather have more carrots instead of chips, or two measly apple slices instead of carrots or chips. Then they'll throw a hissy fit and insist on charging an extra dollar. They react like you're trying to swap a few carrot sticks and a TINY bag of chips for a pound of caviar. As a local resident, I'm honestly shocked this place stays in business. Peanut Butter and Co is just busy, busy, busy perpetuating the crappy reputation of restaurants in this area which have very little regard for local customers - or any customers for that matter.
There's nothing 'comforting' about a PB & J sammich here. Thoughts of how little you get for your money and visions of snarky customer service will haunt you the entire time you're munching on it. Spare yourself!
- Pros: Peanut butter is good comfort food
- Cons: Not so comforting to your wallet, Poor service
Peanut Butter reigns supremely creamy
by janaschreiber8
I had to go here after watching a segment on the food network about places in NY. I am from LA and was excited and delighted to come here and see that it was everything I expected- quaint, nostalgic and a primo destination for peanut butter lovers such as myself. I wish I could have tried everything on the menu (maybe next time I am on the east coast) but I absolutely had to get the fluffernutter- something I had only seen and heard about on TV. It was delicious of course- but really made me feel like a little kid again which I believe is the emotion this places wishes to evoke (and sucessfully does). Next time I go, I am definitely trying the Elvis sandwich- I thinks it has honey, bananas, and bacon (yum yum)!
- Pros: Peanut Butter Extravaganza
- Cons: there isn't one in LA :(
