The staff is very polite and down to earth. Always a smiling and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel good about giving your money to a small business. I am hoping the prices don't go up anytime soon. Inflation is hurting us all, and I'm not able to frequent this place as much as I used to. I'm a caretaker for my mother who has dementia, yet she has always held on to her love for peanut patties. In fact, i take her by to get her peanut patties as often as I can although I wish it could be more because anything nostalgic brings her lots of joy, and there's nothing quite like seeing her eyes light up when I bring her her favorite peanut patties by Goodart's. Thank you, Goodart's and staff!!!

Nice little place to get their delicious peanut patties and peanut brittle. It all is certainly fresh since they make it right there. They also have some unique Coca-Cola items. It is just take out bags of candy but the people were very friendly and helpful.

Been a fan for years; however, the four star rating involves the last batch…all sugar and not many peanuts!

Love the peanut patties so much I purchased several bags of them I remember eating them as a kid and they taste exactly like they tasted years ago. The owners are very nice people really enjoyed speaking to them. You have to check this place out if you haven't already. They even offer shipping in case you live in another state or city.

I discovered Goodart's candies at a gas station convenience store on a recent road trip through West Texas. I was famished and needed something a little salty and a little sweet. As expected, the vast majority of the convenience store foodstuffs were heavily processed, mass-produced garbage. I was about to give up and lick my own sweaty pecs for salt when I spotted the Goodart's display. I'd never heard of Goodart's before, but the spartan packaging (indicative of a small, independently owned company) and "Go Texan!" branding gave me a good first impression. The options included an assortment of peanut candies, including various brittles and something new to me: a "Peanut Pattie [sic]." I grabbed the largest iteration of the "pattie" (the aptly named "Super Pattie"), paid the inbred Devil's reject at the counter, and went on my way. The "pattie" struck me as a cross between a nougat and a brittle: not quite as soft as the former, but not nearly as crunchy (and...uh...brittle) as the latter. Lightly caramelized sugar was the dominant flavor, but the salt from the peanuts crept in towards the end of every bite. I would have preferred a more balanced salt-to-sweet ratio, but I was so famished that I woofed that one-pound bad boy down faster than a...starving, sweaty, clairsentient/clairaudient occultist man-child wearing glow-in-the-dark Pokémon pajama bottoms. As my blood sugar returned to normal, I took a moment to Google the company and discovered that Goodart's has been making its peanut candies by hand in small batches since 1939. The company consists of only ten employees, all of them Lubbock natives. The products are available at convenience stores and family-owned cafes throughout West Texas. If you spot the distinctive Goodart's packaging at a convenience store, I'd suggest giving the pattie (or perhaps the brittle) a try. Side note: I was so delirious with hunger and low blood sugar that I initially mistook the name as "Goodfart's." Indeed, peanuts contain a significant amount of flatulence-producing phytates and tannins, so my hypoglycemic visual hallucination was rooted in scientific fact. I would, however, hesitate to describe my emissions as "good," as my long-suffering dad/chauffeur would indubitably substantiate. But I digress. The pattie tasted good and I recommend that you eat one.

The front entrance was under construction so I could not actually enter the store. I called inside and described what I was looking for and it was delivered to my car in less than two minutes. The gentleman took my money and promptly returned with my change. I was extremely impressed. I'm a fan!

Wonderful people. No tours, but a selection of products and we left with a bag of peanut rounders for the road! Awesome!
