I’m old enough to remember when Castle’s Patio Inn was Ray’s Patio Inn back in the ‘70’s!

This place is a classic friendly Peoria neighborhood tavern and it’s famous for the homemade garlic cheese spread that Peorians have enjoyed for decades!

There’s also a whole menu of tasty items for a delicious Saturday night dinner and below are some fine examples of the wonderful food to be had at Castles Patio Inn on a Saturday night or any night or day of the week, they’re open for lunch too!
