I went for the BLT with extra bacon and it did not disappoint. The bacon is cooked perfect and crispy plus it had cheese which was nice. The bar was crowded and it looked like everyone there was eating wings or the BLT. Service was good even though they were very busy. A little slow at times but that’s because the place was almost standing room only. I wish they had online ordering, I have been trying to buy a BLT for a week but you really just have to go there in person.

Yet another Kansas City icon feeding hungry citizens since 1933. Operating as a speak easy during prohibition the Peanut serves the best BLT I’ve had anywhere, hands down. Serving great bar food in a no nonsense honky tonk . I’ve been coming here for the burgers and BLT’s since the 1980’s and nothing has changed, not one bit. Consistently great be sure. Treat yourself to the best BLT to be found anywhere! Enjoy!

Wings, Ruben’s and BLT’s highlight the wonderful food of this small dive bar. The food all arrived hot and fresh and delivered exactly as ordered. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere made for a relaxed meal. This is definitely a great place to eat. Just remember it ain’t fast food, it’s good food worth the wait!

The best chicken wings. Some might say, “Then you haven’t been to such and such bar in blah blah blah.” You are wrong, The Peanut Wins. The BLT is also ridiculously tasty

Came here for Linner and got the beef nachos. They were excellent. I wish the salsa had a little bit more of a flavor but the beef flavor made up for it.

Outstanding food and atmosphere, with the worst service ever, during the lunch hour. Have met several friends for lunch here, over the past couple of years, and the service is always terrible. The last couple of times we had to track someone down to take our orders, when people who were seated after us had already received their food! I do not believe it’s because they are busy, as we are always among the first people there. But we are female and the female server / bartender does not want to wait on us for some reason.

Best classic buffalo chicken wings I’ve had. They are huge and drenched in sauce. If you like that style make sure to check this place out.

We had the BLT, which according to my granddaughter was the best she has had…she is becoming an expert. The hamburger was very good, cooked to my taste..the egg was hard, I prefer soft. Overall, the food was very good. I liked the ambience of the place. It is very small. The wait staff was friendly…but the wait for our food was very long. It is a neighborhood dive…a must visit for the history behind the place.

There are a few different Peanut locations in the KC metro area and you would 100% be missing out if you didn’t try The Peanut wings! Suggestion: add cheese on top of their drinks cut fries…delicious! We also ordered the spinach artichoke dip before we got our meals.
