About
The Peanut on Main is a legendary KC dive bar. Almost everyone agrees the wings are top-tier, especially with that house-made blue cheese. It is a small, loud, and historic spot that feels like a local secret. While the food is consistently praised, the service is frequently called out for being rude or slow. It is a place for a cold beer and wings, not for fancy service.
