About this business

This location is the original Mr. Peanut, complete with glasses and cane. Look for him in the window of this shop along the trolley line—he's been here since 1951, when the shop opened. Inside, you will find peanuts in every form you can imagine—in chocolate candy, peanut brittle, in the shell—as well as in some forms you have probably never encountered. You can also buy other kinds of nuts at The Peanut Shoppe, from pecans to pistachios. If you are not in the mood for nuts, try some of the popcorn from the... read more

To meet and be serviced by the owner and his family is truly a pleasure. You'll never meet more friendly people and the nuts are to die for. I personally love the popcorn mix of carmel, cheese and plain popcorn all combined in one bag. CUDOS!!!!!!!

The only thing better than the roasted peanuts (in the shell) is the ownership... such good people.

If your ever in downtown Memphis you need to visit this store. The owner is very friendly and loves what he does and his customers. It's also a piece of Memphis history. Great place and it's a block and a half from Rendezvous, who doesn't like fresh roasted peanuts?

We enjoyed our talk with you so much. And we were so happy to get candy and peanuts! We will always stop by when we come back to Memphis.

What a lot of fun we had as we ended up spending close to 90 minutes there. We wish him much continued success, after all he ... read more

Went there for the first on 3-16-17. Owner was a riot and made us feel as if we were old friends. He even made me give him my cellphone so he could take our picture. Will make this a yearly stop, if possible! No worries about OUR lawyer contacting you as opposed to what was stated in a previous review-LOL
