Lakeside Bar & Grill in Peoria unveils new menu, major renovation

Lakeside Bar & Grill, a staple of the northwest Valley for more than 16 years, has announced a new menu and renovation.

Located at 9980 W. Happy Valley Parkway, Suite 1101, the restaurant has undergone a redesign to enhance the dining experience while staying true to its community-focused roots.

The new layout brings a fresh, modern feel to the local hangout, offering guests a more open and inviting space. By removing and lowering walls, the entrance now feels wide open, creating a sense of connection throughout the venue and improving sightlines. The updated aesthetic features exposed brick walls, modern light fixtures, and new flooring.

Adding to the charm is an authentic glider suspended above the bar, along with new state-of-the-art televisions placed throughout. Enhanced seating options include additional booths and tables. To top it off, a large new window between the bar and main entrance floods the space with natural light.

The menu has also been revamped.

While Lakeside Bar & Grill has kept fan favorites like the wings, burgers, and the all-you-can-eat Friday Fish Fry, they’ve introduced new dishes across all categories — salads, appetizers, burgers, and entrees. Adults can also savor new cocktails and expanded beer options.

“We’re excited to share these new creations with our guests,” said Bill Toole, owner of POV Foods, the restaurant group that owns and operates Lakeside Bar & Grill. “We aim to deliver fresh, flavorful dishes that our community will love, and we believe these new specials are a perfect reflection of that.”

The family-friendly sports bar and restaurant also added a Whiskey Wednesday to their daily specials lineup, which includes $5 off Jameson, Bulleit and Bulleit Rye drinks and $2 off burgers all day on Wednesday.

Lakeside features pet-friendly patios, “Kids Eat Free” Tuesdays, and an all-age trivia on Wednesdays.

“We are proud to have served the amazing northwest Valley neighborhood for more than 16 years as one of the original businesses at The Four Corners district,” says Toole. “It’s our pleasure to have connected with so many families over the years, and it’s exciting to be part of the rapid growth in the West Valley.”
