    This is now my go-to currency exchange. Polite, prompt, reliable, fair. Couldn't ask for more!

    Storefront (08/25/23). @LACurrency #Burbank #ForeignExchange #Currency #Travel
    Jeff B.

    (Exchanged 08/25/23 FR @ 3:00pm): The real currency that mattered here was the friendly customer service and their guarantee of "the best foreign currency exchange in Los Angeles"! LA Currency's Burbank location has been open for barely a year as of this review. I've been a fan of theirs for years and have visited their Hollywood and Van Nuys locations in the past with positive experiences. Over the years, I've found they had the best rates in Los Angeles and surrounding areas albeit by mere micro percentage points. I was faced with barely a week before I left on a two-week European vacation and still didn't have any European Euros or Great Britain Pound Sterling for those situations where credit cards weren't accepted. Frankly, my schedule has been nonstop busy for months, but I finally made the time to exchange my Yankee money. With over 40 reviews, a 5-Star rating, and closer to where I'm usually around, it seemed like a no-brainer. Here was how the deal went down!: PURCHASE European Union Euro €100.00 ($111.18): Based on an exchange rate of 1.111826, this may've been the cheapest I've ever gotten Euros at! In hindsight, I probably should've gotten more for future trips. Great Britain Pound Sterling £150.00 ($193.43): Based on an exchange rate of 1.289554, this currency has historically held a better value over the U.S. Dollar, and in this case it was over 25% more which didn't feel good but it was a necessity because of the number of countries I'll be visiting that used this currency - cheerio! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=z96Sni7VmoFssJtLBEAyDg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw SERVICE YELP CHECK-IN OFFER: $3.00 off $300.00 or more for currency transactions. It wasn't much, but at least it was something! I simply walked in, approached the counter and the lovely young woman behind it, placed my order, gave my details (my information was already in their system!), provided them legal proof of my existence (my passport in this case), and in a couple minutes, our financial dealing was complete. A simple, short, and sweet transaction - thank you! PARKING (FREE) I parked in the nearby public parking structure off of Orange Grove Ave. and easily walked through a pedestrian alley pathway. Otherwise, there were spots along the main drag of San Fernando Rd. and all other surrounding streets; however, you had to be lucky to ever get one of those spots! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A clean modern open spacious space with only a lone table and two chairs for a random travel agency, an electronic sign that posted the current currency exchange rates for the day https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ar2tyxWFMRLsgZQvpEJaow&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, and several order counters heavily protected in thick Plexiglass directly in front of you. There were no other decorations or displays of any kind https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=5asCvComCHE2CYqzCJFqNg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Plenty of natural lighting came in through the large front glass windows and door, while soul-sucking fluorescent electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. Honestly, I didn't need to be impressed; just show me the money! There were no TVs (off) while low-volumed music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=JgzdkcPt66srviVJHiTP8w&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Burbank's LA Currency location was so much better for my needs, and this company continued to be my go-to place for my travel moolah needs https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wJsSsbdjPO34azg6wGXr7w&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. The service was outstanding, the rates were the best, they were open on the weekend (closed Sundays), no appointments needed, and no transaction fees. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $305.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, like most currency exchange places, they didn't accept my credit card (or any) of choice (which was fine in this case because it would've been a cash advance transaction, anyway)... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    Beautiful brand new lobby and counter

    Still not the best but way better exchange rate than Chase Bank. Just didn't want to drive far out.
