The Peanut - Kansas City

I've often heard that this place serves the best wings in Kansas City, and I can now confirm that it's true! I visited shortly after Christmas...

The original Peanut in Kansas City is the ultimate destination for Buffalo chicken wings! These are not your ordinary chicken wings; they are truly something special...

The experience tonight was quite disappointing. The bartender never took our order, and we had to flag him down multiple times just to get drinks. When it came time to settle the bill...

This place has a fantastic dive bar vibe. The wings are exceptional and, although they take a while to arrive, they’re absolutely worth the wait, especially with the homemade blue cheese dressing! We typically sit at the bar and always enjoy great service. A lot of the issues I've noticed or experienced seem to come from pretentious customers who act as if they are above it all and are often quite rude. They somehow end up in this bar and realize it's not the upscale scene of Woodside, The Well, or Capital Grill, which makes them a bit uncomfortable in a strange way. Just politely move past them if you need to head to the restroom!

The food here is consistently delicious—my all-time favorite chili cheese fries! The staff remains friendly, even during the busiest times.
