Tailgaters & Il Primo

If you want a prime spot to enjoy the game, head to Tailgaters & Il Primo on Lake Pleasant Parkway. They have plenty of well-placed television sets, fully outfitted with all the best sports packages. And of course, their menu features everything you’d want to snack on during game night: wings, burgers and fries, pizza, hot dogs, hoagies, and more. This restaurant is the perfect blend of sports bar and casual Italian eatery.

Lakeside Bar & Grill

Lakeside offers some of the best game nights in all of Peoria.

They also have an incredible selection of other dishes from around the globe, as well as classic comfort foods like macaroni and cheese. And everything is impeccably plated. There’s a full bar, 32 taps, and over 60 high-definition TVs, making this a prime spot for game night!
