A Guy Walks Into 365 Bars…Again! Bar Number 197: Clink Mobile Bar

by MBIP


I went to The Great Heights Jamboree last Saturday and knew that there would be a beer tent there, so I figured there’d be a makeshift bar in the tent and that would be tonight’s bar.

As you’ll see, I ran into a nice surprise regarding the bar, keep on scrolling and you’ll see what I’m talking about!

Bar Number 197: Clink Mobile Bar, Saturday, August 22, 2926

Here we are at The Great Heights Jamboree, let’s go and see what’s happening here on this Saturday evening.

It’s happening here at Tower Park in Peoria Heights.

There’s a nice turnout here but I’m looking for something specific. I’m looking for…

The beer tent!

Let’s go in and hit the bar which will be bar number 197 of the 365 tour!

I was expecting some half-assed makeshift bar in the tent, but I had a pleasant surprise when I saw the Clink Mobile Bar in here!

We went to Clink’s bar just a few blocks from here back in March, but it’s cool to see their mobile bar set up here in the beer tent. This is actually how they started out and you can read about that by clicking here.

There’s the bar menu on the side of the mobile bar and I think I’ll have a margarita to start this evening out!

We are welcome here and there’s the top of the bar here.

Our margarita is being made right now! I’ve worked up quite a thirst, so I’m ready for my first Saturday night drink of this evening!

Here’s Bridget serving the drink up with a beautiful smile! Bridget said she worked at Lou’s Drive-In a few years back and I took her picture back then! It’s wonderful to see her again!

This was a delicious drink and now let’s go check out The Peoria Heights Jamboree!

Here’s a shot of the crowd in here at the beer tent. Everyone is having a blast tonight!

There was live music happening at the pavilion over here, let’s go check it out.

This is a Tom Petty tribute band called, The Damn Torpedoes. They played an entire set of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers songs and they sounded fantastic.

My friend Michael Frasca taped the show and you can listen to the entire set by clicking here. Thanks for the fine work you do, Michael!

I stopped over at the Hick’ry Stick food truck and had a delicious pulled pork hoagie for my Saturday night dinner!

The sun is setting on The Great Heights Jamboree, the band plays on in the pavilion and I decided to have a nightcap at the Clink Mobile Bar. Cheers, everyone!
