Live, from Peoria, Illinois, it’s Saturday Night starring this week’s host, the Fox Pub and Cafe and featuring, Piper, Stephanie and Rob along with special guest stars, Amber and Joe!

Now please welcome this week’s host, the Fox Pub and Cafe!

Here we are at the Fox Pub And Cafe.

As we enter, I see that sticker on the door that cracked me up when we were here last year to get take-out!

I met super-cute Piper at the hostess station as I walked in the door. Of course I asked her about the song, The Piper At The Gates of Dawn and we discussed the Pied Piper too.

Once I was done geeking out over her name, she guided me to a table. There’s two familiar faces there at the table…

It’s my friends, Amber and Joe, they’re tonight’s special dinner guests and it’s always great to see and hang out with them!

They’re both looking fabulous as always!

As I looked onto the menu I saw something that caused me a little concern…fishwrap!

I may have to call a lawyer!

This is Stephanie, our pretty waitress for the evening. She dropped our drinks off and took our dinner order.

That was my cue to get up and take some photos of this place!

Here’s a shot from the back of the room, the draft menu on the wall and check out the foxy knight in the corner!

The bar is right behind me.

This is a classic wooden bar and as you can see, there’s a large amount of beers on tap here. And they’re ever-changing as well. They have new tap take-overs here all the time.

I ran into Rob who we’ve met on a past visit. Great to see him again!

11. english_8-16-21.jpg

This is Peoria’s only English-themed bar. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Meanwhile, back at our table, Stephanie is serving up dinner!

Joe got the house special, The Cottage Pie and Amber wasn’t too hungry so she just got a cup of The Sgt. Pepper Tomato Bisque soup.

They both said their food was fantastic!

14. melt_8-16-21.jpg

I got the Pub Patty Melt and the house-made potato chips.

The chips were served warm, crispy and very tasty!

15. delicious_8-16-21.jpg

I cut the patty melt in half and this was oh so tasty! It’s a juicy burger topped with rich melted Swiss cheese and grilled onions on toasted rye bread.

What a flavor sensation and this is one of the best patty melts I’ve ever had!

Thanks to everyone at the Fox Pub and Cafe for the fantastic meals and service and thanks to Amber and Joe for joining me for dinner! It was a blast!
