Editorial Review for Rocky Peanut Co – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
While it's no surprise that the retail arm of this Eastern Market institution offers fresh-roasted peanuts, you'll also find bulk bins stuffed with penny candies, dried fruits and chocolates. A far cry from Jack Russo's door-to-door produce-selling venture, which started in 1931, the business remains in the family. The deli and grocery section of the store are stocked with delicacies, and the numerous candies make for extra temptation

I was born and raised in Detroit Mi...and recently moved to Georgia .and for the last 35 years I have gone to the eastern market....which consists of different kinds of shops..and speciality stores...but one of my favorite stores in the whole market place was Rocky's. Peanut Co..I knew Mr Rocky he was always a hands on owner...mingleing with the customers and making sure everything was fresh and well stocked...you can find anything you need when it come to gourmet food items..and specialties items, every kind of candy you could ever think of...GUARANTEED...I miss it and am going to have to have some things sent down here to me......
Pros: wonderful atmosphere
Cons: parking is a little tight
