I went recently to the Pekin location. The lady who took my order did a great job. My chai latte…read moretasted great. Unfortunately, while I was waiting for my drink( I came at a busy time. ), another customer had an issue with hard avocados on her sandwich. The male worker who took the complaint ended up raising his voice at the customer. This put a damper on my visit and makes me reconsider going to the Pekin location again. I will note that I haven't had any bad experiences at the other locations, and I normally don't have bad experiences at this one.

Unfortunately this location didn't have alcohol, which was not what we were expecting but also wasn't the end of the world. I got the best breakfast in Peoria and it also fell flat for me, the biscuits and gravy had a weird taste to them and the hasbrown and eggs have virtually no flavor. The sausage patties were really good though! My friend got the avocado toast, and it's not a mash, it was just a few slices on a piece of toast, which normally wouldn't be a huge deal except the avocado wasn't ripe so it was really hard to then mash down on to the toast. I don't know that I would go back to a Childers eatery and if I did I may not come to this one. The menu items looked soooo good and I was just a little disappointed in the food itself.

It lacked flavor and was a little dry because it seemed the pasta was overcooked. I additionally added salmon to the dish and it smelled, like very strong and bad. It made eating the dish that much more painful. The serving sizes were very large The service was also very friendly. We tried the Dubai cheesecake it was not good, the cheesecake filling also just tasted off

She was courteous and attentive despite us not being in her "section." Food was excellent, we tend to seek out pubs when traveling and Sullivan's did not disappoint. Amazing bangers and mash, Shepherds pie, and fish and chips. We were overly hungry when we arrived as we had planned on snacking at the convention center for lunch only to learn concessions are not open after we arrived. We highly recommend the pretzel bowl with beer cheese and the scotch eggs to get you started these were some of the best we've had. Thank you for a great dinner.

Catfish and fries were good, wish that I would've gotten the cheesesteak instead though.read more

My main complaint is the service. I don't know if our waiter was possibly new, but she didn't know that our sandwiches came with 2 sides, and when she brought out our food, we were also missing sides, that she didn't know about till we acknowledged it. Additionally, our server didn't know they were out of the meat my panini came with, and when I substituted the turkey for chicken, My sandwich came out with ham, so I asked for it to be remade. That being said, my panini was absolutely delicious. The soup though was very lackluster, not flavorful. Overall, although my sandwich was great, I think the service, soup, and price ($16) give this restaurant a solid 3 stars.

Review Visit: October 28th, 2014…read more If you are a diner aficionado, do not confuse yourself. Yes, there is two diners in Illinois that have nearly the same name. This one is THE 50's Diner located in Peoria, IL and the other is THAT 50's Diner in Dwight, IL. The similarities do not end there. They are both themed from the 1950s. They have a big love of Elvis and other 1950's stuff decorating the diner. That's about where it ends. Matt, Tim, and I rolled up on a sunny autumn afternoon for some nostalgic trip. Not that we were alive in the 50's but it is always fun to visit a place themed after a time period one isn't alive for. I am still waiting for someone to open a Cafe 80's modeled after the one from Back to the Future II. This diner was screaming 50's from the moment we walked in. Black and white color scheme for the seating. 50's decor and memorabilia lining the walls and counters. A menu that screams styling from the time. But none of that matters in the end. It's the food. The menu emhpasizes the Loosey Sammich and that is just what I ordered. While looking over the menu, I did notice they served curly fries, which seems like a rarity outside of Hardee's/Carl Jrs. The diner wasn't busy so our server was timely and our food was delivered after a short while. The food was served in those plastic baskets with wax paper (but sometimes served on plates). To me, I enjoy food being delivered in those things. Why, only foggy childhood memories can explain. The food was dropped in front of us and the Loosey sandwich was... not appealing. I'm not sure what I was expecting but it if you've read enough of these blog posts, you know I save my judgment for how it tastes, not how it looks. Chomp. Chomp. A few bites in and my mouth ran in to dryness without flavor to cover it up. The sandwich was somehow disappointing despite being their signature sandwich. I am going to guess that the meat was sitting in a warmer and dried out. Ah, what a bummer. The fries were good, at least. I've been back a few times with my friend Maria for random breakfasts and lunches and the food from those visits mirrored my first experience here. Bland. Not to say the food is awful or should be avoided, but don't expect anything to make you crave coming back time and time again. But, on the other hand, maybe you'll love the place. Don't let me bland experience deter you from checking it out. Maybe my taste buds are compatible with the 50's. Ah, but this isnt the end of this blog. Nope, one little thing left to talk about. There is a store that takes up the right side of The 50's Diner. Yes, you heard it here. A store. I've browsed the merchandise for sale and I am not sure if this store is a consignment-based or what. The assortment of items is rather eclectic. There's novelty candy, jewelry, random clothes, and other odds and ends. It kind of makes visiting here exciting because you just never know what they will have on sale.

Cute little diner. Good size portions. Large and think pancakes. Ordered the Mega skillet.read more
