Peanuts Deluxe Cafe

9/30/2023 @ 11:00am. Renovation completed, same ownership, still updating menu. Hours still in progress. New menu with specials. 2/18/2023 Closing end of February 28, 2023 not enough customers, could not survive Covid. What a sad occasion for a family business. 5/7/2022 Still the best place to get a reasonable priced meal. Get the steak, eggs and rice

The food is quite good and the service is excellent! I like to get a few eggs and toast, which is tasty and under $10 if "I play my cards right".
The owner Joe is very friendly and I'm glad I've gotten to know him. I'm grateful for small diners, stores, and businesses like this!
There aren't many small diners downtown, so give Peanuts a try for some breakfast or breakfast for lunch!

Great little hole in the wall....
Delicious food & the service was beyond excellent!

Love this lil place. Ordered for pick up on my lunch hour. 1st time. Food was great wish i had time to eat there. Will def be BK

Haven’t been in some years but I literally grew up eating at this place. Good food, good atmosphere, nice friendly people. Myun was the best! Him and my grandfather had a good report so I had a tab at this spot as a teenager lol. Ate breakfast here everyday before school

Great 👍 place always coming back ...Friendly 🙌 ppl great cooks all in Many Levels everything.. Thnx 😊 🙏

Solid breakfast fare at very reasonable prices. The coffee is tasty and the relaxed atmosphere lends itself to conversation and comeraderie with our fellow humans. Order under the menu and pick up your food when they call your number. Fancy? No. Delicious? Yes.

(If you need your shrunken, mollycoddled Tech balls lovingly caressed by cowering corporate baristas, this is not the place for you. Do the world a favor and stick to your organic, locally-sourced quinoa enema bar and let the rest of us enjoy an actual meal.)

As for me, I'll be back to Peanuts Deluxe Cafe again and again. First rate.

Get a decently big bite to eat here for a budget price. The food may not disappoint you.

Great food, large portions and superb customer service.

I don't remember the name of the breakfast plate I had but I sure recall the sausage was so delicious and perfect hashbrowns . The pancakes could be a bit more fluffy but still good. Excellent customer service and cozy atmosphere. How could I have missed this little gem being I've been living in San Jose for the past 15 years. Definitely coming back.

Very good and food and nice staff .thank you so much.

Used to go here every morning 35+ years ago for the $2 breakfast.
Don't even think about it those days are gone. But that same great taste and quality food is still there at a good fair price. I'd rather eat at Peanuts than Denny's anyday. Peanuts uses all fresh ingredients, real potatoes not frozen, real eggs not powder or liquid, fresh meats bacon sausage or ham. The ham is a good thick slice and very tasty.
The owner Joseph is a super nice guy.
Please support this local business so it will continue to serve delicious food.

I haven't been back in 15 years but I remember my college days at SJSU very fondly because of peanuts. I went back today and I saw a lot of reviews talking about prices and good. I felt that the food and prices were fine. I think people are attached to the prices from 15 years ago when eveyrhting was below 8 dollars. It's impossible for the days to come back. The food is still great and the restaurant looks a bit cleaner than before. Overall good experience would recommend.

They are always very friendly, accommodating, intelligent and their prices are very fair. I'm not a small person and I'm always satisfied with the quality of food and with the portion sizes that they give me every time I have ordered from them, whether I was dining in or taking out. Very happy with them and I've been a relatively long time customer of theirs since about 2017. Check these guys out!

Great food awesome prices def a favorite of ours.

I always must have a meal at Peanuts whenever I'm in San Jose. Many SJSU memories.

I have been coming here since I was about 6 years old so basically a LONG time... lol. The food is ALWAYS delicious,hot and served fast! The owners are wonderful people always friendly and smiling. Great prices!! When I met my husband 20+ years ago I took him here and told him the same thing.. then we started taking our own children here so they can possibly one day take their children. It’s kinda a family tradition now 😁
I love explaining to my kids how I always came here with my mother as a child and the food is exactly the same as back then.
Definitely 5 stars!!!
Wish I could visit a few times a week but unfortunately we don’t live in San Jose anymore. My next visit were definitely stopping here even to say Hi!!

Exceptional customer service. Prices are unbeatable.

Huge portions with great service! Ordered the eggs and ham breakfast: the eggs were perfectly cooked over-easy and the ham was tasty. They serve beer, coffee, and a variety of sodas and teas.

A good lively Bob's Burgers vibe. I loved this place when I was a student at SJSU and it's still great. I typically get a cheeseburger with fries (not the salad) and it fulfills my diner food craving.
