B J's Poorboy & Sandwich

Great homemade plate lunch. Pork roast rice and gravy with corn and green beans. Everything was seasoned really good but I had to put me some Tabasco. I got a meat ball poboy for at home later and it was ok. I wish they had pastrami and corned beef. But overall a great place for lunch

Not bad but not good.....hence the 3 stars....it's Old Tyme Grocery in Broussard......not sure why in cajun country, they serve a roast beef poor boy with deli sliced roast beef......grilled chicken salad, and half a boiled egg, really? Would go back, but only if someone else wanted to......

I knew going in this place was going to be good. It's owned and run by the same family that owns Old Tyme Grocery (one of Lafayette's most popular poboy shops) and they obviously are doing something right. This place does plate lunches daily so instead of my usual poboy I ordered one of those. Great choice! My smothered chicken over rice and gravy was tasty and moist. I had corn and cabbage as my sides and they even brought out a brownie. This was a lot of food for what we paid! I was stuffed! We also ordered the baked catfish with seafood topping and that was excellent as well. The chef came to our table and explained that was a dish he had come up with at the last minute to add to today's menu. Good idea, chef!The shop is charming and service is very friendly-you feel like you're eating in your friends kitchen. I love all the Saints, Tigers and Ragin Cajun newspaper clippings and t-shirts adorning the walls here.I will be back here for certain! Give it a try!

Siri suggested this place for our lunch and am I glad she did. Excellent roast beef or shrimp poboys with lots of condiments and veggies. Great sides. The place was fast and efficient. The interior reminded us of local stores of our childhood and it was a treat for us to look it over.I would have to second Siri's recommendation. Give it a try.

From my understanding, this place is owned by the same owners of Old Tyme, and it did not disappoint. However, be aware, this place only accepts cash. This place looks like an old establishment, and not really sure how long its been here. I was around the Broussard area, and wanted a poboy during lent, and this was the place my friend suggested. We had the following:- Shrimp Po-boy - delicious and simple, and perfect- Onion rings - onion rings were good and fresh- French fries - fries exactly the same as olde tyme, good and deliciousThis place was up to par if you do not want to go all the way to Olde Tyme.

Best PO boy in town! Their plate lunches are also very good! And it's also very affordable. Service is always top notch. Highly recommend

This place accepts all forms of payment. I only say that BC of previous review. Awesome hometown little place. Had their homestyle special poboy and it was amazing. Their service is fast and friendly. They were amazing with the kids we brought. They walk up to you while in line to take your order to reduce time. There is absolutely no complaints about this place. Great atmosphere as well. If you're looking for fancy this is not the place. If you're looking to feel at home this is your place

Roast beef po boy! Got this before my drive back to New Orleans. Amazing but covered my face with grease but didn't care and just kept driving. Tasty!

Simple and traditional yet delicious!The Po-Boy is such a simple concept - French Bread, Lettuce, Tomato, Mayo, some Hot Sauce possibly, and the fried seafood (or Roast Beef) item of your choice. Being this simple, it is strange to me how often it is not well executed.In this case, simplicity was mastered! First off, do not do what I did and come here without cash. They do not accept credit cards! That walk to the gas station was not only embarrassing, but a less than comfortable walk considering the heat and my grumbling stomach.First off, these Po-Boy's are huge! A "whole" is definitely two meals for me. Value is not bad either 8.95 for the "whole" is not a bad deal consider it's size.I decided to go with the Catfish Po-Boy and I'm very happy I did! There is a lot of catfish on this bad boy - probably 3-4 good size pieces. The fish has a great Cajun spiced batter and didn't have that typical "muddy" taste. I could tell that it was fresh for that reason. The toppings are what you would expect - shredded lettuce and sliced tomato. They also add Mayo and a little hot sauce (it wasn't very spicy, so I may get more hot sauce on my next trip).The French Bread deserves it's own paragraph. I hate to repeat myself, but simple is the best way to describe it. This French Bread is not of the crunchy variety at all. Also, I am not sure if they cut out some of the middle or if it is just made that way, but the bread is thinner than I am used to - a good thing in my opinion. It really highlights what is inside of the Po-Boy. Expect a little chewyness, but not so much to take away from the Po-Boy itself.Next time I am back to the Lafayette area for business, I will be back to try another one of BJ's delicious Po-Boys!

A very good lunch spot. I've haven't been to the local favorite, Old Tyme Grocery so I can't compare the two. I got a "Old Tyme Special" Poboy which was good, nothing to get ecstatic over. I've had better elsewhere.I was traveling through and got there fairly early, this place fills up quickly and parking is a little tricky. They are open from 10-2 Monday through Saturday. Bring cash...they don't take cards...
