8 Best Cocktail Bars near Peoria Heights

“A small group of teachers enjoyed the party room at Casa Agave tonight and it was so delicious. I finally got to try the tuna tacos appetizer and they were so yummy! Everyone loved their food and it all looked very tasty and fresh. I did not have a fancy drink but they all looked delicious as well… this was a blackberry margarita (photo) and they had several fun fruit options all served in beautiful glassware. We have been long time loyal customers at Jalapenos, the owner’s other restaurant… so it took us a while to try the new spot. But it really hit the mark tonight!! Can’t wait to come back and try more menu items.“

“A Shout-Out to Courtney at Childers Eatery My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at Childers Eatery, 3312 N. University St., Peoria. We shared omelets with hashbrowns—fluffy omelets with flavorful fillings and crispy hashbrowns. Courtney’s warm, attentive service was the standout. She made excellent menu recommendations, and her Tea Steeper for my wife’s tea was both charming and functional. We loved it so much we bought two. The atmosphere felt welcoming and cozy, reflecting genuine hospitality. We left full, happy, and already eager to return. Thank you, Courtney!“
