“This McDonald's recognized that we had waited too long for our order. We did not complain but patiently waitedWhen they realized we had been forgotten we were issued coupons for a free meal. Very good of them to address and compensate for a mistake!!“
“I'm not normally one for McDonald's, but I came here real quick for reward to my 4 year old, and everyone here is super organized, very nice, and very fast .... the quickness did not get in the way of quality or customer service, very friendly, organized group, best restaurant experience post covid they did an excellent job!!!“
“Fantastic place to stop in for a high-quality espresso.I visit the Peoria area roughly once every two years, and CxT has been my go-to spot for coffee while I'm in town for the past couple of visits.Their standard house espresso (as a doppio) is part of my morning routine every day, and I haven't found an espresso to match it elsewhere in Peoria. The baristas are fantastic and knowledgeable about their products, the store is kept clean and has a nice appearance, and I've felt nothing but welcomed whenever I've come in.From the brief couple of times I've tried other drinks (a cappuccino here and there, something akin to a maple cayenne latte a couple weeks ago, etc.) they've been excellent as well, but I don't know if I'd say they're completely different than what you'd find at any other high-quality café.Anyway, I'd highly recommend CxT Roasting Company to anyone, but especially for those espresso aficionados out there.“
“When "Walgreens" pops up as one of the few options for coffee on Google maps, you can't help but lower your expectations. But omg Zion just went ahead and raised them right back up. This place is sick. Massive windows, lots of plants, a patio, a loft, couches, and a roaster right inside the store. This Scandinavian styled coffee shop is the stuff of legends, easily putting the rest of Peoria's coffee shops to shame. The baristas were energetic, knowledgeable, and fly as hell; the drinks were equally amazing. I got a chai latte, which looked so pretty I could barely drink it, and tasted so good I could barely stop to take a picture. Def check this place out“
“My husband and I stopped in while in town today, for our first time!! Great food, wonderful drinks and outstanding service! Carrie P waited on us and she was wonderful! We own a restaurant in central Illinois and we appreciate hard working staff that pays attention to detail and are a joy! We will absolutely be back!“
“Ardor provides an incredibly wonderful culinary experience right here in downtown Peoria. The food is so fresh, high quality, and full of amazing flavors. Their menu features many different options and each is beautifully presented by the very talented crew. I’ve enjoyed watching the staff prepare the food to absolute perfection - Alyssa and Kaitlynn in the mornings and Emily and Zeke in the evenings. I regularly pop in and sit at the bar without a reservation. If you don’t wish to sit at the bar, don't be surprised if you can't get a table without a reservation, and even at the bar there can be a wait to get a seat. Last week I had the tomato soup and grilled cheese and it was the best comfort food. Visit often, try the new items, find your favorites, and definitely take home some bakery goodies. Make sure to try a fabulous cocktail crafted by mixologist, Kostas. You won’t be disappointed.“
“We tried kickabrew when I drove past it recently, and it's now our favorite! I love the homemade syrups and the seasonal themes. The vibes inside are immaculate. Some of the service is better than others, but other than that, we thank you Kickabrew. Never change!“
“Indian is my favorite cuisine, and I say with no hesitation, Bollywood Bites is the best I’ve ever had. I wish I had taken photos of the entrees, but once they came out we were too busy diving in to think about taking our phones out! We started our meal with #9: Gabbar Gobi 65 Dry, which is a fried cauliflower appetizers that my party of three agreed could have been an entree. The flavors were phenomenal and you’d have a hard time telling that it’s a vegetable (yes, that good!). For entrees we went with #31: Bollywood Biryani (which is a screaming deal at $14), #52: Rangeela Lamb Rogan Josh (the blend of spices is sophisticated and elegant), and #63: Hariyali Chicken (we did our best to break the chicken down to small bites so we could savor it for as long as possible).I’ve lived in Peoria for almost two years now and can’t believe that I’m just now becoming a patron of Bollywood Bites. I will be back, with every friend and family member I can gather.“
“Incredible coffee and service. The coffee comes from the family farm in Columbia, and they use the farm as a place to offer employment and training to a population and demographic that might otherwise be overlooked.Over the last 3 weeks I’ve visited 3-4 times and the quality is consistent with each visit.Home made and/or locally sourced pastries are available (and delicious).The owner Marta is inspiring, friendly, and makes incredible drinks. Her staff, as well.Parking: The lot is not huge, but even with 8-10 people inside parking is no problem. There is a lot of street parking.Wheelchair accessibility: The ground level is very spacious.“
“Small town vibe, locals support ! Loved this place. We sat in the front window area but seating stretches all the way to the back with several different options. Genuine people, solid tuna/ chicken salad croissant sandwiches. Coffee is solid, Dagon Mocha was a treat! I so appreciated the kindness I received upon my last visit while waiting for the courthouse to open. It's only a 2 min walk from there. Will be back again!Kid-friendliness: My son was so excited to see that there was candy inside the human sized M&Ms. What a treat!“
“I have been purchasing coffee from LNB for about 6 years now, maybe longer! Shannon is always so wonderful to work with at the Peoria Heights location. He always remembers me and is such a wonderful person. I can tell he enjoys his job and he always excels in delivering amazing customer service! I guess I am a coffee snob because no other coffee beans will do! Oh! And your Morton location also has given me the same kind of customer service! The lunch sandwiches are wonderful! Keep up the great work!“
“Being in the area, I decided to stop at Starbucks again: it's a very nice coffee shop, offering all kinds of various hot and cold drinks, and food. Since the weather's been pretty hot, I ordered Grande Strawberry Acai Lemonade, that was made fast, plus I got two pastries, packed to go. The subtotal was $6.95 plus two taxes of 1% and 11% on the packaged food and drink respectively, so the total came to $7.51. The service was very hospitable, cheerful and friendly. The shop now advertises and offers various season specials -- coffees, hot and cold drinks, merchandise, as well as season discounts. Getting ready for Halloween brightens up the ambiance, largely created by info boards in orange colors, as well as all kinds of fall flowers and pumpkins around the coffee shop. I enjoyed my cold, tasty lemonade very much, pastries were excellent too -- Many Thanks & Muchas Gracias!“
“Quiet, airy and inviting! Fantastic quality of Mexican pastries that are given the utmost attention to detail! I had the Yuzu Green Tea and it was delicious. The staff member was nice and she greeted me with a warm smile!Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or incline! Plenty of room inside for a wheelchair.“
“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.“
“We were visiting out of town and stopped here for some bubble tea. The ladies greeted us as soon as we walked in and were very nice. We got an oreo and coffee slush. They were delicious I wish they came in a bigger size lol. I would definitely recommend this place.“
“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!“
“I bought some cinnamon sugar donuts and sugar cookies for my son's birthday party as he had a few friends with several allergies attending. I wanted them to be able to enjoy treats as well. There happened to be 1 donut leftover and I tried it. It was AMAZING! Flavor was delicious, it was moist/not dry, and it wasn't overly sweet like regular donuts. I also want to give a shout-out to the owner for responding on such short notice for the ingredient list. I needed to verify the foods would be okay for the kiddos attending the party and she got back with me within a few short hours. Thank you!!!!!“
“Best coffee shop in Pekin hands down. Always tasty and clean. I haven't had their food or blended drinks so I can't speak to those, but their espresso, Chai, and cold brew are all fantastic.My 4 year old is also obsessed with their blueberry muffins.“
“I had such a lovely, fun experience at this Starbucks! I went here to redeem my free birthday drink, and the baristas were so kind and thoughtful. I asked for a recommendation, and they offered to create a drink to surprise me. I ended up with a delicious chai tea latte that tasted like nothing else I've ever had. Thank you so much for making me feel special on my birthday!“
“Unique custom coffee blends for sale and in store. Coffee aficionado's say it's some of the best coffee anywhere. Small sandwiches and a large variety of teas(iced or hot). Nice, friendly service. Dine in or take out. A true hidden gem.Highly recommend.“
“Everything here is always great! The staff is always energetic and smiling and kind! I order a cold drink usually and they always make it right. The store is clean and there is seating inside and out. The drive though is usually busy and people seem genuinely happy with their purchase and service. Its right in the corner of War Memorial and Prospect so it has a convenient location and if you live nearby, its a short walk up.Parking: The lot is shared with other businesses.“
“Great tasting donuts with actual frosting and not the watered-down runny kind at Dunkin. Prices are comparable, and they have a better selection. Haven't tried a drink yet, but they have a nice variety to choose from.Dietary restrictions: My daughter has a nut allergy, and this is the first donut shop in our area that accommodates!!“
