    Wings n fries
    Don L.

    Had the wings n fries and they were good. I've never had the wings this way so you need to remember it's equal to 6 at normal places lol This location off 151st is a very nice location and plenty of TVs with sports going on. Staff was great and very on spot

    I've stopped here now twice while on travels to the Olathe area. The Peanut came highly recommended and it does not disappoint. The biggest issue I've had is what to order, but I'm all for consistency. On both trips I've gotten the wings and the BLT. The wait for the wings is worth it and there's always plenty to leave for a future snack. I love the decor and have sat at the bar on both stops. Service is attentative and they have a nice selection of drinks and beer. If you want to eat like a local, this is the place!

    I stopped in for lunch with a friend today and it was a great experience. We both got salads and we both enjoyed them a lot. They were a little pricy for what they were, but that's pretty normal these days. Our server was really friendly and the restaurant was clean.

    The peanut offers some of the best bar food in Kansas City. There isn't much to the place but that's what makes this place so special to me. This is a great bar to go and watch sports plenty of TVs and the service and food is always great. They are most known for their wings and BLTs. The BLTs are piled high with toppings and you can get a triple decker and add some add ons as well. The chicken wings are the full wings and by far the best and biggest wings you can get in Kansas City. I have been to the peanut many times and it never disappoints. They have many items on their menu that are fantastic. The nachos are another great item on their menu. Think about going to the peanut next time for either dinner or going to watch the game. You will be surprised by their food and there is a great vibe and service to the establishment.

    Lens cap found in my coleslaw.

    Needless to say, I was surprised to find myself chewing on what appeared to be an iPhone lens cap that had apparently fallen into my side order of cole slaw. Fortunately, I didn't break a tooth or swallow it -- and there certainly are worse things to find in one's food. But when I called the restaurant (it was a pickup order) to give them a heads-up, I have yet to receive a follow-up response nearly a week later. It's not a big deal -- and the hamburger I'd also ordered was terrific -- but other patrons might not be as forgiving. Perhaps they are just very busy. I will certainly go back -- overall, the food is very good -- but I am a bit disappointed...

    Ordered the Santa Fe burger w/ sweet potato fries Was really disappointed for a few reasons. First I ordered it rare and came out medium. There really wasn't a lot of flavor. Mainly my thought is if I'm going to pay $16 for a burger really expected more I will say the fries were delicious and I don't know where they get their ranch but literally best I've ever had. Wife ordered the tuna sandwich and potato salad Both were bland and disappointing. The service was ok no comment there Liked the lights on the ceiling gave it a unique look Will not be returning

    I love the food here not to mention the patio outside. The server was very polite. The atmosphere was wonderful especially when the weather is nice, you can sit outside and listen to the music and enjoy the fresh air.

    Decided to visit Brewbakers because I wanted a good lunch and a solid drink on this Saturday…read moreafternoon. I saw they had $4 vodka Red Bulls, and that solidified my want to come here even more. I didn't order an appetizer because I wanted to get straight to the food. I went with the Fried Clucker and a side of waffle fries. This sandwich was unbelievable huge..smothered in their house sauce, which tasted like a milder version of buffalo sauce. I thought the flavor was good, but the fried skin was falling off the chicken. Every time I cut a piece, the breading would just slide right off. Maybe they need to brine the chicken better to help it stick more but it was no biggie, it still had a good flavor. My boyfriend ordered the chicken-fried chicken, and honestly... nothing too special about it. The mashed potatoes that came with it were flavorless at first, but once we added salt and pepper, they were tasty. Now, I get that this is a bar and grill, so I'm not trying to be overly critical or nit-picky but in that category, Brewbakers definitely ranks on the higher end. This is hands down the best bar and grill I've tried when it comes to food. They even serve Jambalaya here.. what kind of bar and grill do you ever see serving this?? Would I come back? Of course! It is out of the way where i usually am, but im excited to come back and try other things off their menu.

    We live close to Talk of the Town and often go for the great Wednesday night burger deals!…read more You can get one of several options of their burgers for a really great price on burger night, I've gotten the one with blue cheese, the loosy goosey, the California, the one with pineapple, the one with egg. There's a lot of options and I've liked all of them. It also comes with a side but you can pay a little extra to upgrade to a different side. Some sides cost a bit more (like a loaded baked potato). You can get a burger with a regular side (like fries) for around $10. And it's a nice size burger and generous side. They are also really good at allowing customization. Many have no extra charge but you can add ingredients (like bacon to a burger that doesn't already have it) for a reasonable upcharge. That's really awesome! We get our burgers to go a lot. I do recommend you check your to go order. It's why I put 4 stars. Unfortunately, I think because they are busy, they forget ingredients and sides a lot. That's the only frustrating thing. You can get back home and realize all the toppings for your burger are missing. Just check your order before you leave. They are very nice about fixing it quickly. It isn't a big place for a sports bar. There's a decent amount of seating and then a bit outside too much if weather permits. It is a fun sports bar atmosphere if that's what you want. Several big TVs tuned to sports, a nice bar, and I noticed they had a few dart boards (electronic) on one wall but it looked like you could be pretty crammed in to that area to play. I'm not a big sports fan so it's not really my vibe but it's a great atmosphere for those who do. I imagine it could get a great party atmosphere during big games! I really enjoy their burger nights and getting a really good burger for a reasonable price. Everyone there seems very nice too. I'd definitely recommend trying them out especially on burger day!

Some of the dishes that I've had of the KC strip with green beans and baked potato. I do like their chicken tenders a lot as well with waffle fries. It has been a while, but I did try the French dip and I remember liking it. I feel like the price is pretty good for what you get as well. I typically get it to go and it's very easy to retrieve it yourself when you order it online. I find it very convenient to just run in there and grab your food. I've actually never eaten in, but I've gone to ask for my order before and they had to show me that I go in through a different door to pick up my carry out. When I was in there, the bar looked really busy. The vibe was fun and lively.

Lots of different types of seating - bar, comfy chairs and table with chairs in a space that will hold about 80. The drinks are a little spendy about $16 and no happy hour pricing. I had a stirred dirty vodka martini. It was good but I prefer shaken martini that skates (iykyk). My friend ordered an fireside old fashioned. The rum made it sweeter and the cinnamon stick was a nice touch. The menu offers several old fashioned and martini options. They also offer some lite bar bites for snacking. If you live in Olathe and like cocktails this is definitely worth a stop. If you don't - it's quite the drive and there are other bars probably closer and just as cool.
