Tonight’s bar is one that I just found randomly while perusing facecrack.
I stumbled upon a wine bar in Pekin called Go Vino and I never have heard of a wine bar in Pekin, so I decided to check it out.
And so, here we go to our 32nd stop on our 365 bar tour in and around Peoria.

Go Vino, Tuesday, February 10, 2026
Here we are at Go Vino Bar & Grill.
Let’s go inside and see what’s happening in here on this Tuesday evening in Pekin, Illinois!
It looks nice in here and there’s a seat at the end of the bar, let’s go get settled in for the evening!
There’s the owners of Go Vino, behind the bar, Navin and Hiral and Navin’s wife and Hiral’s mom, Padma is also an owner.
Wonderful to meet both of them.
Amanda and Kris were seated next to me at the bar and I had a nice conversation with both of them.
There’s the back of the bar in here.
And a shot from the other end of the bar. As you can see from the coolers behind the bar, they are very well stocked in here!
The specials of the day and evening are all listed here. Hmm…I see tacos at the top of the list…keep on scrolling to see if I chose to order those this evening!
Living up to their name of Go Vino, they have an entire wall of wine in here! Phil Spector had his “wall of sound,” Go Vino has a wall of wine!
Just a few of the bottles that are featured on the impressive wall of wine in here!
There’s a nice dining area with tables and chairs directly behind the bar.
They have a nice and private gaming area over in this corner if you’re feeling lucky!
Meanwhile, back at the bar…
Yes, I did get the tacos and congratulations to those of you that scrolled all the way down here! I appreciate you reading the entire post!
The tacos were perfectly seasoned and a tasty and delicious treat on this Tuesday evening in Pekin!

The Drinks
I had two cans of Pabst and one can of Old Style. Yes, I drank beer in a wine bar, you got a problem with that? Oh and the Old Style was brought to me by mistake, but I drank it anyway, I’m not a picky drinker!
