Cafes near Bartonville

“We are from Davenport,Ia.. we went to Peoria to see the museum and planetarium. After we were done we decided to find somewhere to eat. We came across this place and decided to go here. We had the catfish, greens, sweet potatoes, and spaghetti.This food was so good! Everything was seasoned to perfection! Talk about putting your whole body into it and not just your foot! The owner was awesome! Service was great! I would recommend this place to anyone!“

“I went out to Kickapoo, IL right off of Rt 74 with my son recently and had brunch with him. It’s about a 15-20 minute drive there for me but well worth the time. Normally I get the same thing to eat when I go out ( their famous meatloaf, masked potatoes n gravy, green beans and a hot roll) but this time I decided to change it up a bit and boy was I glad I did. This time I got a hot ham and cheese sandwich served with potato chips and an order of their famous onion rings. The minute they sat my plate in front of me, I knew I made the right choice. I expected to get that real thin shaved ham like one gets from the grocery store in the lunch meat aisle but this sandwich had nice thick slices taken from a whole ham you bake in the oven. It was cooked to perfection, and it was perfectly moist. One bite into that sandwich and I was in heaven. I should have included a picture of all the food we had, but before I even thought of it, the food was gone. It was that amazing. The onions rings were cooked perfectly with a beautiful golden brown mouth watering color and not dripping of oil like I’ve had in so many other restaurants. The waitress asked if we would like dessert but sadly enough, I was too full. Once we left, I was kicking myself for not purchasing one of their fresh baked pies to take home with me. Yeah folks, they bake their pies every single morning and you can take one or more of them home with you. Or…..if you are hosting a holiday meal at your house or a birthday , anniversary party or whatever the occasion, you can put in an order for pies and they will bake them for you so all you have to do is go pick them up. You have a choice of Apple, Cherry, Red Raspberry, Peach, Blackberry, Dutch apple, Apricot, Coconut Cream, Toffee, Butterscotch, Lemon, Peanut Butter Reese, Lemon, Raisin, Pumpkin, Chocolate, Cookie, Banana Cream, Red Raspberry, Pecan, Strawberry, Blueberry Crumble and Key Lime. I highly recommend you make the trip to the Jubilee Café for either breakfast, lunch or dinner, and I guarantee you will not be disappointed. They are open seven days a week from 6 AM to 8 PM and are closed on Thanksgiving day and Christmas Day so the staff can be with their families. Please do yourself a favor and go out to Kickapoo to the Jubilee Café and check it out. Oh and for all you truck drivers out there, they have parking out there for your big rigs behind the cafe on the west side of the building. Side note: They serve breakfast all day! Bon appétit everyone!“

“My wife was looking for a tea room in the Peoria area. In her search, the Emerald Tea Room came up. It was conveniently located in East Peoria near a few antique shops. It is open from 11 am to 2 pm Tuesday through Saturday. All of the food is made in house. The soups were excellent, great sandwiches, bread and desserts. It is family owned. The service was delightful.“

“love love love peoria nutrition spot. not only are the refreshers AMAZING, but the protein shakes are awesome too. definitely friendly for those who have to watch their sugar intake. The kits are perfect to make at home too! customer service is beyond incredible! this is definitely a weekly stop for me.“

“Food like someone's favorite family member made it like... good good????☕ . Had the skillet with cheese. The onions potatoes? and green pepper were well seasoned and the cheese? was American melted ?? side of a short stack?. My manfriend had a bacon ?and cheese? omelet. He loved the bacon? was whole folded with the cheese? into the omelet, crispy enough to easily cut into but not too dry. Hot sauce? on the eggs? and a half order of biscuits and gravy, which was better than I make. That breakfast anywhere else would have been $35- $45 but this place was an amazing value ? Staff is funny and friendly. Regulars make the atmosphere great!“

“The coffee is incredible. They roast their own and offer flavors unlike any others I've seen in the area. They usually have vegan-friendly pastries and whatever milk will suit your fancy for a drink. The main sitting area is very chic and cozy. There are spots outside as well as a little nook inside if you need a quieter area to sit. As for the service, i absolutely love these people. They're so friendly and welcoming, and don't just flat out ignore you if you aren't ordering like some cafes do. It's in a beautiful historic building that always gives me inspiration whenever i go there to get work done.“

“This little coffee joint is the absolute best. Conveniently located across from the convention center, it has a great selection of coffee, breakfast, and brunch options. The coffee is wonderful and the breakfast sandwiches are made to order in front of you with fresh ingredients. There are comfortable couches and cute little tables. To top it off the owner is sweet, friendly, and goes above and beyond for her customers!“

“This place is okay. The incredible outdoor seating is the reason to come here. The food is... fine. I am not positive but I think the burgers are frozen. Again, the food is fine, but it's not the reason to come. 3 stars on food, 5 stars on the space itself and staff.“
