This was a fun experience!!! I'll start by saying the atmosphere was thrilling with detail. The order counter had little details everywhere. Obviously, the biggest being the conveyer-belt machine that shrinks and blows up the food above your head was so cool! The Castmembers inside were polite and happy!
We mobile ordered, which is easy and simple on the Disneyland app. Once our time came up that we chose ahead of time, we hit the IM HERE button, and our food was prepared in 5 minutes. You can order your food as early as park opening and choose your time then if you prepare your day schedule in advance.
It was VERY VERY VERY BUSY!!! the seating area can not hold the volume of people that it's serving. We lucked out and found a table in half shade that was still dirty but grabbed it without complaint. There was a sign that said additional seating was around the corner at the Hyperion Theater. It isn't very far, just passed the Guardians ride a bit, but if you are carrying a bunch of meals and kids and strollers, it's near impossible.
We both order the NOT SO LITTLE CHICKEN SANDWICH ($15.49 each). It's a slider bun with a HUGE piece of flattened fried chicken breast and slaw. There is an option on the app for extra slaw for 2.79, which my partner did because he is extra saucy. It came with a side of potato barrels (tots) and I added a side of Beer Cheese ($1.39) to dip into. The meal was awesome! I folk and knifed it until I ate fully around the bun and then ate the rest like a sandwich. He also got the banana smoothie (6.29), which he said was ok... I got the Proton Punch (6.99), which is sugary, bubbly, and refreshing. It had buba balls in it, too. DO NOT SKIP DESSERT!!! and it's perfect to share as it's huge! We still had some leftover from 2 men sharing. Celestial-Sized Candy Bar (8.49): Oreo cookie on the bottom, milkyway middle and snickers top and covered in chocolate! It was very long and doesn't seem like a lot but it was dense and very sweet/rich.
They have cast members there clearing tables and wiping them down, but we are always helpful by condensing and bringing them our tray ourselves.
I would recommend it, and we will...
Read moreWe started our Pym Test Kitchen experience with breakfast. This seemed like the only place with a meal for breakfast instead of something grab and go so we chose it. As we were ordering we asked the cashier if there were nuts in the French toast since we have a severe nut allergy in the party. She handed us an allergy menu that did not have the French toast on it and continued with “ if you want to hold the whole line up and ask the chef then go ahead.” Very disappointed to be treated like that due to a food allergy by a Disney employee. The food came out and luckily there were no nuts on the French toast. The eggs were gross and not able to be modified even with an egg sensitivity. Our party ended up eating tater tots, bacon, and focaccia for breakfast we ended up getting another meal after at Flos in Radiator Springs.
We decided to go back later to get another cold brew because that was truly amazing and the only redeeming quality of this restaurant. We also ordered a pretzel with it and did mobile order. Unfortunately we had to make an unexpected bathroom stop and missed our window. I’ve only done this one other time and was told it was completely ok and was given my order once I arrived at a different location.
When I got to Pyms however I explained what happened and the woman behind the counter huffed at me. Slammed the pretzel on to the tray went and complained to another employee while making the coffee. She did not say a word to me the whole time when the coffee was done she slid the tray to me and moved on. She didn’t give us the mustard that is supposed to come with it only the cheese.
The pretzel was pretty good, the beer cheese was not great I’ve had better.
Overall would not come back here. The staff is highly unpleasant and for it to be multiple people is enough to make me uncomfortable and not want to go back. The food is also not worth it for what you pay. $80 on breakfast and we were still hungry. Pass up this one and have breakfast before you...
Read moreAfter checking the app, it seems like I can pick up order in 40 mins, so I send my family to the seating area hunting for seats. Unfortunly, waste too much time on mobile order either the payment information will not pop out or the continue button won't work finishing the credit card process. Then I found out there is a standby line. Duh! Lesson leaned. Next time I will stay in the standby line and place the order to see which one's faster.
Line moved smoothly less than 15-20 mins reached cashier, placed the order , till my turn to pick them up... We had Pym-ini sandwich, and PB3 superb sandwich. After I have seen everyone else with their panini sandwich walked away I'm kind of regret what I ordered. It should call Pym-mini. Later I can see my sandwich sitting on the kitchen counter but not the candied bacon one, they came back and tell me it's going to be little longer on the other one...Anyway 10 mins, got both,and walked to our seats.
PB3 turns out Superb even though I would never try it with those combination at home. Now, I might. Those candied bacon are amazing , potato bites are moist inside, crispy outside, and a shot of banana smoothie. Cute, totally worth it to wait. Yes, you could have extra sides for those two items with extra money.
Pym-mini is not as good, soft on the bottom from waiting, salty...But the sauce came with , you could use it as a dip for potato bites. Maybe just my luck. But then again, if you have a family of 8, the Pym-ini family size is a great deal for $99.99, you get 8 of those sandwiches and salad. Too bad they don't have family sized patoto bites and candied bacons. That will be Superb Sides.
Generally speaking the place is clean constantly there are people wiping the table before you use it. Pay attention to the indoor details if you get a chance it's fun...
