I knew they were considering giving lunch a go, and I see that Sullivan's in Peoria Heights has posted a sign touting lunch Monday-Friday.
I hear that Peoria Heights will have another tenant in the former Penguin Tap, and it won't be Amvets Post 64.
Last night I was sad to hear that Po-Boys is closing. We heard a lot of great bands there over the years, and I had some awesome food. I loved the decor, too.
Certainly, finding a great live blues band to hear in the Peoria area will be a lot more difficult now, and I can't imagine the venue having the same kind of class.
I am all for local businesses giving it a go, but Po' Boys sucked. The food was generic, the atmosphere cheesy, and the service was consistently horrible. The cover charge - should you choose to stay and listen to the band - was too expensive in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI'm truly surprised they were around as long as they were. I hope someone else will fill the void there by offering great food at reasonable prices and excellent service.
I have to respectfully disagree with B52. On the one hand, I can't argue about the cover charge, and for me the service was inconsistently horrible (sometimes alright, never great), but I liked the atmosphere, the music, and the food. There are too few fun places in Peoria. My wife will be devastated.
ReplyDeleteThe cover charge was a bit of a downer, but not too high, and we could get in earlier for dinner and avoid it.
ReplyDeleteI agree the service was never great when we were there, but in the last year or so the food was great, and the blues could not be beat.
