Fun college town restaurant. Great food and service. Burgers & Sandwiches were the best. If you get something that requires utensils, just know they will be plastic.

If you like bland and overpriced burgers, this is the place for you! Sure, the staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is good but any place that up-charges you for the most unseasoned fries is awful.

Always a cool spot
The Peanut Barrel is located in a lively spot near the university, so the atmosphere is always buzzing with energy. The menu covers all the basic food options, making it a reliable choice for a casual meal. We tried the Chicken Shroom Burger and the Reuben Sandwich — both tasted fine, though not particularly outstanding. The service was attentive and friendly, which made the experience pleasant overall. 👍🏼

We waited for our food for at least an hour and a half. During that time we had no service at all. They messed up our order and didn’t apologies.

Great burger.
The long island is nothing to write home about.
Noisy, close quarters, not the place to converse with elders.

Really liked atmosphere inside, though outside dining available as well. Group enjoyed wide range of sandwiches including couple of Reuben’s. Staff was exceptional, and at least 4 of them interacted with us during the meal.
Great food with a great atmosphere!
Stopped in on a Saturday and had a great time. Got the rodeo burger with a rye bun and it was delicious.
Don't skip the pickle it was one of the best ones I've ever had.

I personally dislike when a burger patty doesn't cover the entire bun, leaving you with nothing but bread for the last bites. While the crispy, burned cheese that fell from the patty may appeal to some, it wasn't for me.
The waitresses seemed tired and unhappy, which was reflected in the service. We were also told to expect a 30-minute wait for our food, which felt excessively long for a menu consisting of simple burgers, salads, and handhelds.
It was probably not their best day.

The burgers, service, and drinks were awesome! Mary went above and beyond to make our experience truly great. Super friendly atmosphere and excellent food—exactly what you’d want in a local favorite. We’ll definitely be back!
