The redhead is a small, neighborhood restaurant in New York's East Village. Focused on seasonal, southern-influenced food & good cocktails; the brittles are our “bar nut.”

"Peanuts. Maple syrup. Some spices — cayenne and thyme. And bacon. All tossed together and roasted until the tacky bacon bonds with the crunchy peanuts, creating what may be the best beer nut in America, now being served at Redhead in New York’s East Village."

Our Story

“The bacon peanut brittle, served in a jar that a diner can take home, is an instant classic, a way to fill up quickly and a clue to the kitchen’s unpretentious bearings. The Redhead speaks with a pronounced Southern accent.”

- Frank Bruni, New York Times

Mix a hip gastropub and updated Southern comfort foods and you get The Redhead, a popular neighborhood restaurant run by Meg, Gregg and Rob in the East Village of New York City. While the restaurant is a hit among locals, it's the standout snack, Bacon Peanut Brittles, that's earning food cred beyond the bar stools. Meg has even drummed up a mini side business by packing and shipping this better tasting cousin of the Beer Nut to bacon and snack lovers across the country.
