Food Scene

Great place for food/drinks and live music (when it's nice out). The park is great for walking and is connected to the trail (great for biking).

Wonderful array of shops, stores, bars, and restaurants (not to mention our favorite frozen yogurt shop 😋). This place is great! We highly recommend Asia Grill, Childers (brunch and lunch spot) and Hacienda El Mirador.

This place is one of the coolest up-and-coming spots in the area. They have a couple of shops and a great coffee place ([CxT] Roasting Company). They also, along with Junction City, host a farmers market every Wednesday in the spring/summer/fall.

Neighborhoods

The Heights (as the locals call it) is a quaint little village with so much to offer! Some of the best bars, restaurants, parks, shops, etc that the Peoria area has to offer. Not to mention Grandview Drive! The best area to take it all in is Tower Park and then walk South down North Prospect Road. You will not be disappointed!
