Neighbors Bar — Restaurant in Peoria

Neighbors has been a special and unique bar in the neighborhood for years. I could start with the atmosphere that feels more like a den or parlor than a “hole in the wall” bar but it’s definitely more. Lexi makes the best Mexican Candy shots and has a delightful personality. She should be at a better bar. I feel safe and welcome when I see Vonny. She treats people (my son included) with the utmost respect and care. I come for the free poker which are professionally and whimsically hosted by Jason. Neighbors has built-in poker tables that have been there for years. It’s been a fun place to learn poker, play pool, shoot darts, listen to music, bring your own food and have cocktails with great people. #Ace9Poker...

They have other games I didn't pay any attention to. Men's bathroom was clean. The people there at the time were nice, played a few games.

I was going to give this place 4 stars because of the small venue, but I feel that it deserves 5.

I played for about 2 hours, spent $12.

Great bar. Prices are fantastic and it is usually a lively little bar. Good amount of friendly regulars and there is always someone willing to play you in pool or darts. Just a notch up from being considered a dive bar, but still has the dive vibe thanks to the Circle K next door constantly bring robbed, the guy living in his Silver Dodge pick up in the SE corner of the parking lot, the constant amount of random tweakers coming by hunting for a quarter butt of a cigarette... Lol it is a fantastic hole in the wall and there is usually never a dull moment.

Good times. Bar is a 5/5. Would recommend for your...
