We stopped at the peanut depot at lunch to pick up peanuts to take home. You could smell the peanuts even before you get out of the car. Samples were given of fresh hot roasted nuts right from the shell. If you are in the area, its worth stopping by especially if you like peanuts. more

If you like peanuts, you should try them from the peanut depot. Like the other reviews say, don't plan your whole trip around it because there is not much to see when you get there.

Cheap and very delicious to eat these fresh, roasted peanuts. You ca buy a pound or 100 lbs. Somehow I was expecting to see some just a little more... more

The Peanut Depot is WONDERFUL!!! A great stop for visitors, and a great source of absolutely fresh, delicious peanuts. The Peanut Depot has been operating in the same location for 99 years. It's in an old building with nothing but peanuts and hopeful pigeons on the pavement outside. (They keep some shelled peanuts for children to feed to the pigeons.)... more
