21 Best Bar & Grill near Pekin

“killer place. nice people. you can feel the brotherhood when you walk in.“

“Enjoyed a nice supper at YBG this evening. It was my first time stopping in and I was very impressed. I was greeted as soon as I walked through the door. The waitress was very friendly and helpful navigating their menu. YBG offers a wide variety of flavors, apps, entrees, and beverages. I ordered The Club with a side of fries. I had to stop myself from eating it all in one sitting because it was THAT DELICIOUS! I also purchased a Strawberry Salad to go. The salad looks amazing! I know it’s going to taste even better. I will definitely be a returning customer and recommend YBG to all.“

“We have had 2 parties here this month. Both had over 20 people. Our waitress Nikki rocked it both times. Excellent service!“

“Hidden gem! Great energy and excellent food selections with rotating specials. Taco Tuesdays, of course followed by meatloaf and mashed potatoes on Wednesday and homemade tenderloins on Thursday are the staple repeating specials but Monday and Friday rotate and are always good. Excellent Smashburger and some really creative appetizers and desserts round out the menu. The owner, Rebecca has excellent energy.“

“Awesome atmosphere good people and service and always good food and the best tenderloin around“

“Me and 2 of my daughters stopped in to eat. Great service, and the young ladies were friendly and helpful, food was fantastic. The 2 in the back of the pic were the staff, my daughter in front. I will be back. Thank you“

“Have you been looking for a great burger and fries? Look no further. Best I’ve ever had!“

“Quick stop after Peoria Airport! Staff is super friendly and helpful. The food is good solid bar food. The tenderloin was tasty and HUGE. Beer was nice and cold!!! We will return to try other menu items when in the area as everything looked good.“

“since Perkins is closed this is the place to go they have been busier since then it seems like! I know they're going to get a lot of their business though I have a feeling!“

“This is a fantastic spot to hang out and enjoy a fun night out. The crowd is friendly, the atmosphere is lively, and there’s always something to do—whether you’re shooting pool, playing darts, trying your luck, or just relaxing with friends. The food is surprisingly great for a place with so much going on, and the drink selection offers plenty of options to keep everyone happy. It’s the kind of place where you can easily spend a few hours without realizing it. Between the games, good eats, and welcoming vibe, it’s definitely a go-to spot for a laid-back but entertaining evening.“

“I've been a long-time fan of Whitey's BBQ. Used to go to the location on E Washington Street almost once a week before COVID struck. They even catered my wedding rehearsal dinner, so I had to try the food at the new location. The pulled pork sandwich was just as good as I remembered. With even better quality buns. And the sauce is the same award winning sauce I love. They did switch from straight homemade fries to waffle cut and I think my friend and I prefer the original fries, but overall it was still a very delicious meal that brought back a lot of fond memories!“

“Thank you for the opportunity to tell people about our Genesis Pest Control business and to learn about things in Manito!! Its a wonderful page.“

“very clean, great service and cold beer! highly recommend this place!“

“Seen this place on FB and decided to give a try when we were over that way. Customer service was excellent! My husband ordered wings and I got a quesadilla( the chicken in it had some spice and it had tomatoes, onions and jalapeños in it) both were very good! My husband ordered boneless wing and they made a mistake and gave him bone in wings, he gave him those free and then brought him his boneless ones too and thanked him for his patience. Those wings (he had the blackened bbq wings) are fantastic!! They have a little bit of a char on them and some sauce almost like the sauce is baked into them..it’s not dripping with sauce so u can’t taste anything but sauce..which I hate. If I could describe the perfect wings..these would be it! Great place , great service and great bar food..we will be back!! ty Hammer’s!!“

“Need better Management that doesn't drink or do drugs. I wouldn't recommend going in there with family or children or ordering anything off the menu.The day shift kitchen staff isn't good as they claim.The service is very slow and the food isn't all that great neither.There management isn't very friendly and unpleasant and racist as well.“

“very good people :) been friends with the owners Jen and bill forever!!!!! they would give you the shirt off their back if you needed it. 100 they were there for me when I had no one els :) love you kiddos...“

“I didn't plan on having to use a walker to attend Paul Cauthen. From Stephanie, David, Jasmine, Kitty and all staff. I could not of attended without all of your help!!!! And the show and vibe was so worth attending!!! The outside area is so nice as well. Thank you!!!!!“

“Went to Dizzy Deans for dinner last night with friends and wanted to say how good it was! The bartender/waiter was so attentive and our food was delicious! Hope more people realize what a nice option this is in our small town for a good place to eat. The new owners are doing a great job! We will definitely go back!“
