Bar Number 51: Silver Bullet, Sunday, March 1, 2026

Here we are at the Silver Bullet in East Peoria. It looks like the Silver Bul, but they just need to change some lights there.

I love the Harry Caray tribute in the window! Let’s go inside and start our 51st night of our 365 bar tour!

There’s the bar and I think I see some familiar faces seated there…

It’s my friends Amber and Joe! They’re looking fabulous and it’s always wonderful to have them as special guest stars for the evening!

Kevin was our bartender for the evening and this is his second time appearing on the blog. He also bartends at Racks On The Rocks, which was the fourth stop on our tour back on January 13th. Great to see him again!

We checked out the menu and Kevin took our dinner orders.

There’s the back of the bar and the half dozen beers on tap back there.

The dining room is opposite the bar and they have a cool Silver Bullet scoreboard on the back wall.

There’s gaming machines here in the middle of the restaurant.

There’s more tables and a pool table in this room in the back of the restaurant.

Here’s a shot from the back of the room.

Meanwhile, back at the bar…

John is delivering our food! Great to see him again!

Joe got the Taco Dip, Amber got the Mixer and I ordered the Hot Honey Shrimp and Teriyaki Chicken Wings.

There’s Amber and Joe diiging into dinner. The food was delicious and thanks to Amber and Joe for joining me on this fun evening! Always a blast to have them along!
