“Went to Mike's Tavern in West Peoria IL for lunch today. This is a small hole in the wall bar and grill. You first think of a two and a half garage that someone turned into a bar. You would be close . The owner is happy to tell you the history of the place. I had their Tenderloin. Crispy crust, toasted and buttered bun. On the thin side of tenderloins but still thicker then most. Just comes with chopped onions and at least a dozen pickles. No lettuce or tomatoes. Husband had the Double Cheeseburger. Once again only chopped onions and pickles. We shared an order of Truffel Oil Fries. Hot and crispy. They were hard to stop eating! Normally these are Parmesan Truffle Oil Fries but they were out of Parmesan. Definitely worth a stop in for lunch. Kitchen isn't open on Monday or Tuesday. Small menu but food is GOOD EATS!“

“Love the place love the people Shaun and Steph make you feel like family best bar in east Peoria“

“Had the salad bar. It was good, simple and the 1000 island was great. Ordered the tenderloin. Hand made in house. Great texture and flavor. Perfectly tender. The potato medallions are great. I should have added photos but no it was good so I ate it all quickly.“

They've ran this far very well, they have awesome staff, it's definitely a neighborhood spot which I left to would love if I grew up in the area and this is where everybody knows your name whenever I'm in the area. I have to take a moment to stop and say hello to old friends And also to enjoy the ambience They always have good service. And when they do serve food, it's awesome.Totally enjoy the Time I spend there.

Parking: If you catch it on the wrong time there isnt a lot of parking. And wheelchair accessibility is not the best but Definitely doable, especially if you know anybody in there. They're always willing to help“

“Had your new item a Tenderloin & Fries it was really good and you can’t beat that Grand Prairie sauce that really sets it off in fact it was so good. We went out the following week so I could get another tenderloin that’s gonna be my new go to highly recommend the food was great service was great. You gotta try the tenderloin.“

“Very nice people. Welcoming atmosphere. Good drink prices. What more could you ask for??“

“We came along way and buy it be a New Year’s Eve. We didn’t look forward to coming to Peoria not having anything to do when we arrived. There were only like four cars in the lot so we figured we were pretty early for the New Year’s bash security at the front door said there was a $25 cover fee. There was no food and he said that there were only three people in the bartender inside, which disappointed me to the bottom of my heart when I come back to Peoria, maybe it will be a more greater experience being that they won’t be charging people at the door who in the world would pay $25 or New Year’s Eve and you didn’t even have food we didn’t come from Chicago to visit somewhere as such so waste of money not knowing what the atmosphere would be like once the crowd picked up, and since we werethe first ones in the crowd to be there before midnight. You could have at least let us in for free because just a couple hours after New Year’s you were packed that was the most ghetto thing I had ever heard of.“

“great people, relaxing atmosphere“

“Best bar food in in the area with weekly specialsto keeo it fresh, great local vibe, outdoor beer garden with live music. And last but not least the bartenders are top notch and all beautiful smiles. Cooks crush it as well! Say hi to Jimmy if he's around, he's the man!“

“My husband and I stopped in before a Richrath Project 3:13 concert in June. We knew it had been Gary Richrath's local stop. Lots of memorabilia. Enjoyed our chats with Kim and the local patrons. We will be sure to stop in again the next time we come through East Peoria. P. S. Jaymi loved the hot sauce.“

“Great atmosphere great people and a good time“

“Our main slot joint. Some days the machines are tight and sometimes we can manage a little wiggle room. Bartenders can't be beat and almost never a dull moment in here. Always open til 4am and nothing fancy about it, so you know what to expect. Would recommend, but that might cause more competition on the machines. lol Thanks guys.“

“love this bar. Most bartenders are friendly.“

“Good people, fair prices, many drink options, and a great place to play pool, darts or a round of Golden Tee. We stopped in and met the owners. They were great people and since they purchased the bar in late 2019 they did a wonderful job on remodeling and renovations. Stop in and give it a try!?“

“Friendly folks low prices LIVE MUSIC“

“Great service at this place! Had a Golden Tee machine and darts as well. We did order a pizza that was not very good. I don't think they are homemade so whatever brand they have isn't very good. Although it could just be me but hardly any pizza sauce and like barely any cheese way too much meat on it. If u love meat more than life this is your pizza! Lol otherwise a really great place to stop in and hang for a bit!“

“We had a wonderful stay. The first day was incredible we ate at their restaurant I had the steak and everyone else their pizza food was super delicious. Steak was phenomenal. The next day my family and our friends decided to have some Japanese food at a restaurant nearby. I ended up having an emergency situation where I was in active anaphylaxis I begged my husband to just take me to the hotel which was right across the street. We came in the door asked if they had Benadryl and they asked if we needed an ambulance (husband said yes as I was saying no I’m fine, I wasn’t clearly fine at all) Everyone acted fast and got me Benadryl, water and kept my little one occupied while everything was going on. All this happened literally with in minutes. The ambulance came took me to the hospital where we sat for several hours to monitor me after receiving epinephrine. My friends watched our little one. I wish I caught the names of the staff members. Thank you for stepping in and acting fast and keeping everything calm. Truly appreciate everything y’all did for me that day. Very grateful my husband didn’t listen to me when I was saying no. Y’all are the best! Thanks for the amazing stay and the amazing riverside view!“
