About Last Chance Bar & Grill
Where Community Meets Comfort Since 2000
Our Story
Nestled in the heart of Peoria, Illinois, Last Chance Bar & Grill has been a beloved community gathering place for over two decades. Since opening our doors in 2000, we've been committed to providing our neighbors with exceptional food, the coldest beer in town, and an atmosphere that feels like home.
What started as a modest neighborhood bar has grown into a full-service restaurant and entertainment venue, all while maintaining the warm, welcoming spirit that makes Last Chance special. Our name reflects our commitment to being there when you need us most - whether it's your last chance to catch the game with friends, enjoy a home-cooked meal, or unwind after a long day.
Located at 2713 W Second St, we've become more than just a bar and grill - we're a cornerstone of the Peoria community, a place where memories are made, friendships are forged, and everyone knows your name.
What Makes Us Special

We take pride in serving the coldest beer in Peoria. Our state-of-the-art draft system maintains optimal temperature, ensuring every pour is perfectly chilled. With a rotating selection of craft beers, local brews, and domestic favorites, there's always something new to try. Our knowledgeable bartenders are happy to recommend the perfect beer to pair with your meal or match your taste preferences.
Home-Style Cooking
Our kitchen serves up generous portions of delicious comfort food made from scratch. From hearty breakfast classics served all day to mouthwatering burgers, sandwiches, and daily specials, every dish is prepared with care using quality ingredients. Whether you're craving a classic burger and fries, a fresh salad, or one of our signature specialties, our menu has something to satisfy every appetite.
Community Focused
We're deeply committed to supporting our local community. From sponsoring youth sports teams to hosting fundraisers for local charities, we believe in giving back to the neighborhood that has supported us for so many years.
