I've avoided coming here for months and months because I assumed it was a tourist trap (since Sourdough is next door and considered a trap). First of all, it doesn't make the best impression, with a bunch of steps to even get through the door...what about older people, or people with bad knees? But, I was very pleasantly surprised, as it's very open air, sportsbar type of scene with a sleek bar that stretches the room. We sat in the patio area and had a nice view of the creek. The drinks were very good, and my mushroom and swiss burger was just ok. The service was quite excellent, she did a great job and cared that we liked our meal. Bottom line: may not be the best food I've ever had, but good drinks and a cool ambiance to watch the game in. read more

Peanut farm is one of my favorite sports bars in town. It was also pretty convenient from where I used to live. I really like Peanut Farm for all of the tvs to watch all different sports on, their pool tables and their atmosphere. Ive spent a lot of Sundays watching football there with my girlfriends and the bartenders and servers were really nice and did their jobs well. Love their pizzas, their food is pretty decent, their prices....??? Could be worse I suppose. Not super expensive but not inexpensive either. We were pretty bummed because on the Sundays that we would go there, they didnt serve nachos until after 3pm.?. No idea why but no biggie. Love their Alaskan Ice teas with strawberrys. $15 for a big glass of this but a quarter or half-way through it you will most likely have a good buzz going on...or not...all depending I suppose. Good place for pre-gaming when you're having ladies/guys night out too. Summers are nice. I like sitting out on the deck with my friends chit chatting enjoying the sun & seeing people canoe/kayak by in Campbell creek that goes by the deck & past Arctic Roadrunner on the other side. It can be pretty entertaining. read more

The place is lovely. There are screens all over on the walls. Good for sports events. There is a garden with a creek passing through in the back. But the food is just okay. It would be 5 stars if the food was better. read more

I must admit I was severely disappointed by Peanut Farm. I'd read that this was the place to go for sports and saw they open at 6am so I thought wow, they're really dedicated to the games! I pulled up at 0655, excited as can be to watch the opening game of the 2018 World Cup and celebrate with the world. You can imagine my crushed soul when I was told that the waitress couldn't change the channel. Apparently there's a room that controls all the tvs. Ok. There's someone whose job it is to work the control room. Ok. He doesn't come in until 8:30. What!? And there's no way to change the channel otherwise? The game was on Fox, no special channel or anything. "No one had told us they wanted to watch it." It's the biggest sporting event in the world! read more

One of the best spots in Anchorage to sit, drink and watch some sports on the big screens with Friends and Family. read more

Peanut Farm - American Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

What's that you say? You want sports, beer, and good food? Guess who is in luck..... That's right you! Sports- there is literally a TV everywhere you look. Beer- 2 bars with tons of seating to quick access to cold ones. Food- boy have they stepped up their game. This place has certainly developed some consistent offerings. The pizza is thin, crisp, and on point. The nachos are solid. The burgers are juicy. Ok.... Now I'm in the mood for a cold beer and pizza. See ya there! read more

If you're looking for a place for a late night bite in anchorage, this is the place for you. The food is surprisingly good for a bar, and the views are pretty nice. There are TVs and pool tables and a ton of space, so would be ideal for large groups. read more

A gazillion tv's, mega amounts of beers on tap, awesome menu, friendly staff and did I mention this place is huge? I had a halibut burrito. Who even knew they made such crazy concoctions? Like Alaska original version of a gigantic, homegrown Buffalo Wild Wings this place is super cool. Why didn't I buy a t-shirt on my last visit? read more

Last few times I've come here they won't even put a specific game on. Got like 50tv's n they'll be like sorry, these twenty are reserved for one game only. Can't get the game on anymore plus merely average food. I'll just order all the sports packages n eat better at home. read more

Not impressed, ordered a teriyaki chicken sandwich. Bun was huge chicken was tiny. Tasted ok. Coleslaw was goid until I found a long hair in it. Won't be back. read more

Good service with a wide variety of food selections. Pizza, beer, halibut and sports! Nothing more Alaskan than watching hockey and chowing on very tasty treats. Very good all the way around with great food!! read more

Peanut Farm - Halibut strips, Alaskan Amber beer batter. Chipotle meat and pepperoni, added " Wasting Away Margarita" pizza, heavy on the Garlic please! - American Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

There was a hair in my food. A short CURLY hair. I completely lost my appetite and have not been back. read more

I probablly get to the Peanut Farm a half dozen times a year or so. The reasons I keep going back is consistency and location. You can always get a decent meal at a fair price and sometimes I am just looking to meet up with friends some where in mid town. This past weekend my fiance and I met a friend for lunch and some ice bowling, something we enjoy participating in every year. Between the three of us we had a burger, chicken wrap, chef salad and a bunch of four alarm wings. Everything was well prepared and tasty, but I was especially impressed with the salad, which I stole a few bites of. It was a very generous portion of fresh letuce and included turkey, olives, blue cheese, and hard boiled eggs. Deffinatley worth getting if you are l;ooking for something healthier than a burger. If you haven't enjoyed ice bowling, you are missing out on a dose of good quirky fun, and at seven bucks for a game including a T-shirt, you can't beat the value. read more

I've been here a few times since my last review, before the shutdown of course. I really enjoyed Walking Dead nights here and then football Sundays. Most of girls are very friendly, there's been a couple servers that have been a little rude or spacey, but the female bartender I always see is the sweetest! I've only ever had drinks here but the beer options are always good. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. read more

I have mixed feelings about the Peanut Farm. On the one hand, it occupies a beautiful and close-to-everywhere location. Campbell Creek running through the backyard is awesome, and on a nice summer evening the patio is second to none (maybe second to Snow Goose). I also appreciate that they let the poker players occupy the old section of the bar and the "Saints" room every Tuesday evening, when so many establishments in town are reluctant to do so. The vibe is very relaxed and welcoming to everybody: business-people, college kids, families with children, etc. Finally, the new section (especially if all you want is beer and a TV) is a sports fan's dream. With all that said... if you don't care what comes out of your kitchen, and you are too busy to clean the joint once in a while, and you shrug your shoulders at the infestation of flies buzzing around your clientele, then what's the point of all the nice stuff I talked about earlier? The problem, as I see it, is that the Peanut Farm has no incentive to make better food or clean the place up. Enough people are awestruck by the massive TVs and endless promos and special events that they file into the Farm regardless. There is also a section of Anchorage society that has been going to the old Peanut Farm for decades and has no intention of abandoning it any time soon. Congrats to the folks that own the place, they've created a successful business without having to bother with the details. read more

The Peanut Farm, an Anchorage staple has some of the best food in town! You can sit inside and enjoy the bar or go outside and enjoy the quiet, peaceful setting beside Campbell Creek. The serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. All of their beer is on tap. The staff is extremely friendly and I love the atmosphere! read more

See all

Great sports bar. Great wings{cajun dry rub} Good beer selection. Great view of stream next to restaurant. The place for sports! read more

Great food, especially try the mozzarella sticks and their pizza...everything else I can't complain about except that everything is pretty much very expensive except for the beers. I'm a regular and will continue going but I can't give it five stars with paying those prices. read more

It's really like being at a really big TGIF or Applebar's bar. Pretty much generic, unexciting, bland food and some drinks. Coffee is watered-down shit, breakfast food generally blows, their pizzas are nothing but greasy cheeses and tasteless sauce smeared over an overbaked, giant hard cracker-like "crust", but they have a ton of beer of tap, can usually sling a good, hard drink, and I look forward to coming here with the gang to watch football on Sundays. Two stars for food, three stars for relatively palatable cocktails, five stars for all the wonderful servers who can juggle a bunch of drunk football fans. read more

Beautiful location, great customer service, and awesome prices. But, food was salty and pizza greasy, not enough of beer on tap, and drinks a little weak. Would definitely one come back, has a great atmosphere. Great for a date,or with a family. Good selection of pubs style food. Lots of TV's and beautiful building. read more

Peanut Farm - Yummy pizza but very greasy. - American Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Very large and open sports bar - I came here late one night and it was super nice we can't wait to go when there's a good game. They have so many big screens and pool tables. The bar is huge and super long all the way around. We will definitely be back! We got a couple pizzas and drinks and the service was pretty good! The pizzas were delicious. Highly recommend! read more

This was a bizarre restaurant during my Alaska trip. Between the awkward waitress, our bad table, the rowdy and obnoxious people seated around us, and the cold chicken wings I just couldn't wrap my head around why the place was so busy for being so bad. read more

Decent grub and the only place to find a large group of Bills fans. =P Also, they are open before kick off, so get there early and grab a good spot. They have a full bar and plenty of big screens all around. If you catch a booth you'll have your own personal TV to yourself, woot woot! During the summer time they have outdoor seating where you can sit by the creek and enjoy your meal. It's really nice. This time around I tried the California burger, cause I looooove avocados especially on my burger. I was super excited, and was madly slammed with a FAIL. They served a plastic dipping cup of what appeared to be prepackaged pureed avocado.. and I'm not talking about guac style, it was puree avocado piped into that bad boy. WTH?? Uhg.. like I said, FAIL. Oh well, I've had past experiences here that were by far better. Everyone has their bad days, yeah? ;-) read more

This place has hundreds of TVs Even a TV at your booth. Out back along the river is seating and..... Giant sized bowling on the weekends. This place is GREAT ! read more

The TV's at the booths are disgusting. It's hard to eat if you sit there. A lot of the channels either don't work or are really fuzzy. If your trying to flip through channels, they haven't programmed the working ones so it takes forever because of all the blacked out channels. The hot farm sub is good though. Burger was average tasting and a huge size. read more

Totally disgusting food. Need lotsa beer, which they have, to wash it down. One of the worst places in town for food.

It's a sports bar...order bar food. Avoid the fish and chicken. They're not as fresh as they can be. Friendly environment though. Nice river view right next to it. read more

Peanut Farm - Peanut Farm - American Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Good selection of beers. Service is ok. I would say most staff have been there forever and it comes across in their interactions. Food selections are on the large size which makes up for the higher prices. $13.50 for a burger! Always feels drafty in the winter. read more

Cajun Chicken Sandwich. I ordered this last night. 6/9/21. I picked it up and drove 10 minutes to my destination to eat it. The chicken was Ice cold, like it had been Pre-cooked. I called to complain, and the girl I first spoke to, lied to me about it, saying it had just gotten cold. After speaking to a manager, he confirmed, that yes it had been cooked in the morning. Couldn't they at least have heated it up? The menu didn't say, cold chicken sandwich. Really dissatisfied!!! read more

Some experiences in your life can be described as nothing short of surreal. Such was my trip to the New Peanut Farm when I came back to Anchorage for a visit in the summer of 2007. Let me back up - when I was a resident of Anchorage, prior to 2001, I remember going to the Peanut Farm on a number of occasions. My memories are of a sort of dingy, shack-like bar, very strong Long Island Iced Teas, and, for some reason, the Doors' song Riders On The Storm. So, when Jen-sha brought me here a little past midnight on a beautiful summer evening, and we walked into a cavernous, chain-like sports bar, I was confused. Then when we sat down at an enormous cooshy booth, equipped with private television, and listened to some crooner on some unseen stage sing "Over the Rainbow" (to commemorate the anniversary of Judy Garland's death, she told her small and very disinterested audience), my head sort of began to spin. This wasn't the Peanut Farm I remembered... this wasn't even Anchorage! Where was I?! The delirium did not end there. Once the live musical act wrapped up, a Nickelback concert was let loose on all the gigant-i-screen TVs covering the walls. I already hated Nickelback with a hatred that cannot be expressed in words, but ohmygod they were ridiculous in concert! And so Jen and I drank our beers, ate our deep fried mozzarella cheese logs, and laughed uproariously at the spectacle being projected for us. To add to this, it was about 2:00 am - the time of night when nothing really makes sense, anyway. As we were pretty much the only people in the bar, we were not concerned that we were pissing off any true Nickelback fans. The New Peanut Farm is ridiculous. Their giant appetizers are.. well, gigantic. They have beer. They are open SUPER LATE, as is their kitchen. I recommend this bar to two types of people - sports fans, and drunk people looking to eat deep fried cheese at 2:00 am. It's definitely a fun and bizarre late night alternative to Village Inn. read more

Had lunch here with customers. Yes, it IS a sport bar - I might come back to watch an event. The bar crowd looked a bit rough, even for lunch. We sat out back on this long porch that has big garage doors open to the creek behind the place. Unfortunately, this day was cool and rainy, so they were thankfully closed. Our server was ok, nothing to write home about. I had to flag her down to get a refill on my iced tea. The reason I gave this place a great rating was the food. Two of us had beer batter halibut and fries which were outstanding. The other two had blackened halibut sandwiches, which were also great. The menu is big and has lots to chose from. Another reviewer said this is a good place to go after a night of drinking - I can see why! read more

Awesome sports bar, with a beautiful setup next to the creek. It definitely specializes in bar food though--they had two or three healthy options in a special green box on the menu. I got one of them, the grilled salmon. It was a kinda wimpy piece of fish, overdone and with a bowl of reheated frozen cut carrots, broccoli and cauliflower. My friend got a BLT which looked much more on point. Service was good though, and again I really liked that creek. There's a little path that goes over the creek to one of those touristy Alaskan tchotchke and candy shops with a chocolate fountain that smells like crayons. On our way back to Peanut Farm, some bozo who probably had too much to drink was driving his pickup all crazy over curbs in the Peanut Farm parking lot, burning rubber and spraying dirt everywhere. read more

I went in here alone, a 22 year old woman, and have never been here before but heard good things. I knew it was the biggest sports bar in town and I had a specific game I wanted to watch. I walked in and came to find out that their tv's are all large, and the smaller ones are all for individual booths. So I unfortunately did not feel I could ask to have the channel changed to my game. The food did come quickly and was rather good, so no complains about that. The service was subpar though at best. A waitress walked by me and spilled bbq sauce on me and my hair, and I had to get her attention to get some napkins. It seemed like she did not care because I was not one of her tables. Then, from the time I finished my meal, it took me probably 45 minutes to an hour to leave because it took forever to get my tab. This is while my clothing and hair has bbq sauce in it. Lastly, I did not get the correct change from my bill. For being the biggest sports bar, I was disappointed that I did not feel comfortable to request a game. And also, the service was extremely poor. I don't plan on coming back. read more

Football was good, food was good. Service was less than mediocre. Price wise it was under 20 for a sandwich and a beer. If the waitress wasn't so sour and inattentive we would have had a better experience. Nothing ruins a meal more than bad service. We tipped 10% and if it wasn't for the sandwich being good she wouldn't have gotten that. We never got refills, she never asked how the meal was, another server had to bring us napkins and silverware AFTER we asked for it. She came by to pick up her tip before we left!! Unbelievable! Everyone's entitled to a bad day but you are in the service industry! A smile wouldn't kill you! read more

Peanut Farm - Empty beer after an hour. - American Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

This place has changed a lot, it used to be the go to place in town. Was back in town for work for a couple weeks and went to check it out. Not the same...Food not good. Service hit and miss. Tried the fish and chips the first night. Its a few strips of breaded halibut and tarter sauce taste like from a can. Coleslaw was good. Thought maybe just a bad night so went back to try again, sat on sports bar side this time. Bartender seemed pre occupied with other customers so I had one beer then moved the other side. Service better. Figured I would just get the halibut strip appetizer, thinking it would be better than the fish and chips(not sure why I thought that). Its the same exact few pieces you get with the fish and chips. Got some wings to go and they were just wings with hot sauce dumped on them, not what I remembered at all. Little disappointed for sure. They do still have a awesome patio on the water, tons of TVS and a huge bar, food just was not as good as it used to be. read more

Great place for lunch, had wings and plenty of sauce on them which is a plus. Quick service and good prices. Will be back.

I came here to drink beer and watch football. I didn't try any food, but I sure drank some beer and watched some football! Almost got whiplash from turning my head, trying to watch all the football games on the 14 tv screens I could see from my post at the bar. Want beer and football, this is a damn good place for it. I'll come back later and try the food. read more

I come here every now and then, but each time, I'm never disappointed. Their pizza is probably my favorite in town. The meat lover with onions? More please! Friendly service too! read more

Good food and good beer. It gets crowded sometimes so be patient for food orders. We shared a great pizza which was plenty for two guys. I stop by here every time I'm in Anchorage. Prices are decent too. read more
