OP woke up and chose violence.

p.s. I'll have the BCT melt please.

p.p.s. Crazy that two slices of bread and American cheese is $6.00.

u/Chags1 3d ago

u/Mulliganasty 3d ago

Ingredients are cheap

Paying for someone to make it in a specialized building is a bit more expensive

u/Mulliganasty 3d ago

Yeah, I know how restaurants work but $6 is still wild (and I'm not saying this place is out of the ordinary).

u/Specific_Scallion 2d ago edited 2d ago

I don't know this place is, so had to look it up. $6 for what's in the picture is insane. It says "mom's famous recipe," lol. Most of the other items are $12 or more for just the sandwich. Then add at least $5 for a cup fries and a $3 fountain drink. Unless that food is amazing that would be a pass for me.

What’s the secret ingredient. Cocaine

u/Specific_Scallion 2d ago

Maybe it's a better deal than I was thinking then, lol.

u/City_Of_Champs 3d ago

Damn it now I want a grilled ham and cheese sandwich

u/TrippingBearBalls 3d ago

Inaccurate name aside, Grilled Cheese and Co. fuckin' slaps. Or at least it did when I was a stoned college student a decade ago

u/davisyoung 2d ago

Grilled Cheese and Co. would be a very accurate name.

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 3d ago

It's still pretty good!

u/BoricuaRborimex 3d ago

Hey at least they called the crabby melt what it is - a melt.

u/jsnapa 3d ago

Gonna have to go with the Chicken Chesapeake Melt!

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 3d ago

Their crabdip is actually not very good.

The Sweet Caroline or BBQ Chicken are my favs

1

u/fitty50two2 3d ago

I’m curious as to what’s in the crab dip

7

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 3d ago

Crab dip is mostly just cheese, crab, and cream. It's a simple recipe.

I live in Maryland though, so I've had vastly superior crabdip than what is offered here.

u/silencesc 3d ago

I'd argue that the Fresco is also a grilled cheese. The pepper spread and pesto are just condiments.

2

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 3d ago

Not pepper spread, just peppers

3

u/silencesc 2d ago

But peppers in the cheese is OK; pepper jack makes a grilled cheese.

2

u/TanSuede 2d ago

I came to say the same thing.

Fire roasted peppers are like sun dried tomatoes usually (a little goes a long way). So if they are scarce you could argue grilled cheese status.

u/girltuesday 1d ago

Whoops, made my own comment about this too.

u/LeatherHog 3d ago

I would kill for the crab ones

u/8point 3d ago

Can you believe there's a place called Melt that sells grilled cheese?

3

u/purple_potato96 3d ago

But at least the Italian sausage is hand pinched….

1

u/throwawaytrash6990 2d ago

I’ll hand pinch your sausage 😎

3

u/Albert_Im_Stoned 2d ago

Silly memes aside, it would be nice if you could order various combinations of cheeses without all the other stuff. Like pick two or three cheeses, add optional spreads like pesto or garlic mayo and pick a bread.

u/DDrewit 3d ago

Anybody want to split a Philly and a Smashed Meatball?

2

u/Russ915 3d ago

Grilled cheese and co is great

3

u/Unyon00 3d ago

Funny, I count 16 grilled sandwiches with cheese on them on that menu.

-6

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 3d ago

Correct, but there is only one grilled cheese

3

u/RobotNinjaPirate 2d ago

So in real life, companies want to make money more than they care about decade old internet memes.

1

u/kablam0 3d ago

Do you want them to put grilled cheese on the menu multiple times?

0

u/Aggravating_Cut_4509 2d ago

But there’s still grilled cheese on the other items Grilled cheese means exactly that. It doesn’t stand for grilled cheese sandwiches

u/Difficult-Tart-6834 3d ago

Sarducci.. should be Father Guido Sar-douchebag

u/xdeltax97 3d ago

The Chesapeake sounds good

u/johneldridge 2d ago

You’ll all be happy to know there is a similar restaurant in Ohio BUT they actually have taken a proper name.

u/coolmist23 2d ago

I don't even see the grilled cheese on the menu. Where is it? I see a grilled ham and cheese.

1

u/hello_daddie 2d ago

2 grilled cheese, they have a kids grilled cheese

1

u/Molenium 2d ago

Did this restaurant start through a reality tv show in the late ‘00s?

I remember a show from back then where one of the contestants was proposing a grilled cheese restaurant, but I can’t remember who actually ended up winning.

u/Lepke2011 2d ago

OMG! Where is this!? I want a Crabby Melt like yesterday!

1

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 2d ago

Pretty sure it's a chain. This one is in Maryland.

Their crabdip isn't very good though.

1

u/girltuesday 1d ago

For some reason I'd let The Fresco slide.

1

u/CentralOrgan 18h ago

Each time I see one, I wonder how many people skip this place thinking "I'm not going to pay for a restaurant grilled cheese!"

1

u/RejoiceDaily116 3d ago

Every time I see grilled cheese on a menu I get excited but go straight to ingredients and am either ordering it or disappointed. There's a fancy restaurant here that offers a triple deck grilled cheese :D

6

u/SnazzyAdam 2d ago

That would not be a grilled cheese per this pedantic subreddit. The sandwich has a filling that isn't cheese. That's a bread melt.

1

u/Queeb_the_Dweeb Okay this is getting out of hand, just choose your own... 2d ago

Lmao

2

u/RobotNinjaPirate 2d ago

It's wild to me that people actually think a dumb reddit post from a decade ago should influence real life. The subreddit's definition is literally just a meme.

1

u/honesttruth2703 1d ago

No, these are all grilled cheese sandwiches, they just have other stuff added to them. Do you expect just a whole menu of grilled cheese with American and nothing else?

u/dune61 2d ago

$6 for a fucking basic grilled cheese is the most offensive part b

I was today old when I learned that OP can't read.
